Here we are at the conclusion of the second SlyVisions contest. As most of you already know, the top commenter for the rest of the month (starting last week) had the chance to win themselves an easy $7. The results were just amazing. First of all, I would just like to say that after moving to WordPress about a week and a half ago, I had actually gotten more comments on the site that I have ever gotten. Starting over with 0 after the transition, it has now (as of the time of writing this post) 492 comments. Success!

So anyway, here’s what you’ve been waiting for. You might already know who the winner is if you’ve kept track of the widget in the sidebar. But since it resets every month, I took a screenshot just before the month ended. The contest really came down to two people: Michael and Grace. They had both over 150 comments! Can you imagine doing that in a week?! Unfortunately, it really all came down to one. After checking over the comments for approval and also deleting a few, I had decided that the win was clearly on Michael’s side. So congratulations Michael! After 192 (You just won yourself an easy $! Please email me your PayPal address so I can send over the funds!

There you have it folks. If you think you lost this contest, think again. Why? Well, first of all, you have all won yourselves a free link back to your site for every comment you made because I have removed the “nofollow” attribute in the commenting system. Secondly, I have decided to continue this “Top Commenter of the month” thing, so this should give you another reason to contine commenting! At the end of December, I will search for another type of prize for the new Commenter champion. But with a contest or without a contest, I should still expect almost the same amount of comments!
