Guess the Spam Contest

3 June 2004 80 Comments

Taken from a recent post on a forum elsewhere in the internet world, I am running a contest for a $20 gift certificate for iTunes or Amazon.com.

All you have to do is be the closest person (up or down) to guessing the amount of spam I recieve in my inbox for the month of June (Starting June 2 (today)).

Enter as many times as you like. No more than one guess per hour.

Good luck.

You’re going to start a trend – soon lots of websites are going to spring up that mention sex.

Let me reiterate for all who keep demanding help with their referrals. I am removing your links until you help me out. Once you have, I will gladly reciprocate and help you out and make your request visible again.

I treat this kind of behavior like spam and will not be tolerated here. Give and it will be given unto you.

I’m tempted to say 42, but i’ll say…

500.

And don’t call me an optimist. on average, I get about 2 or 3 spam emails a month. Combine the Hiveware Enkoder and Thunderbird, and you’re set. :)
