How about occasional challenges that offer free membership or year renewals as prizes ?
Maybe the prizes could be 'gifted' if the winner didn't want to use it or had just renewed.

Whoohoo, that'd be motivating! :) I like it.

| I think this is a good idea, if I´d be so lucky to win one I would definately give the membership to someone who has trouble becoming a member :) |

| That sounds like a decent idea to me. |

| I like the idea, but my guess is that prizes with monetary value enter the picture will open up a huge can of worms in terms of legality, terms of service, voting, age (i.e. under/over 18), and city/county/state/country of legal residence. |

| Nice thought, but that would motivate folks to cheat even more than some already do. |

there are several reasons dpc doesn't offer prizes. the main ones have already been stated.
legal issues -- not just in the states, but I am sure there is legislation about international prizes.
cheating -- we get a lot of *paranoia* and conspiracy theories as it is (some founded, others not). and that is just for a few colored pixels. i would hate to think what some people might do for something of value. |

Yeah that would be cool but would probably make things caotic for the SC.
Anyone thought of some sort of secret santa give away? Find a registered user that you feel should be a member and pay to have their account updated for xmas with out another word mentioned? Is that legal? I doubt any one would complain if it happened to them.
I bet it would be a nice surprise for someone to wake up Xmas morning and log on to find an update button on their DPC home page...
I probably couldn't afford to give one this year because Xmas has already tapped me out for the season. We are looking forward to tax returns already. However I am sure some of you can and or would want to..
