		Glad someone found the thread.  I got curious too, so after wading thru the voluminous  gobbledegook  in their rules list, 
 
 I found a lead and sent an email to them.  Perhaps they will answer.  If so, I'll post it here.
 
 To:  marketing@virtuoso.com

		actually I think it is a merchandising setup. one of the headlines says these are the (20) winners; another implies that these are just some of the best, and do note that some of them have been taken by their people. fie on it I say.

 I love the Cape Town picture in there, though, and those from Kenya and the Serengeti.

 Time?   I did 1 click every day for about a month... that's about 5 minutes in total... not a big deal.
