A Perfect Dealer - New Balance  


To enter the contest, you must first set up an account. This is much simpler than it sounds:
  1. Go to the contest database (Enter the Contest) and select sign up for one here.
  2. Enter a User ID of your choice and your Email address - it is important that you enter a correct email address in order to receive your account Password, which will be sent instantly.
  3. Log into the database with your User ID and Password. For future contests, you will skip steps 1 and 2, going directly to step 3. Also, if you leave the Remember username and password for future logins? option checked, your username and password will be stored in a cookie so that you do not have to type them in for future visits.
  4. Click on the Enter Predictions link, answer the questions, and press the Enter Predictions button. You're done!
If you like, you can change your email address or your password. The password is encrypted, but you may want to select something easier to remember. The password has recently been changed to "contest" for all new accounts for simplicity. You can still change it to anything you desire. Ok, why the database instead of the old form submissions?
  • Less data entry on my part.
  • Ensures only one contest entry per email address.
  • Ensures valid email addresses (yes, I have received invalid addresses in the past which make it impossible to contact prize winners).
  • Allows you to modify your predictions any time during the month. Enter the contest at the beginning of the month so as to not forget, but make last minute changes if you learn something new about that month's event.
  • Opt-in email newsletter to notify you of new contests and when the current contest is about to close.
1 Everyone is welcome to participate, but certain prizes cannot be shipped outside of the USA. Details will be provided if necessary.
