Did the Probationary Period go into effect for the August contest? It doesn't say that in the rules and there are now three entries for new members. Janice

"I was thinking of creating a probationary period at the start of membership. For example when you signup you cannot compete in, or vote on, any contest for the first 30 days."

I have not made this a policy yet. The amount of programming it will take to finish this will probably be at least another week or two.

I will make an announcement and a posting in the official contest rules area once this I made it a policy for any future contests.

I was thinking......that could be trouble . Don't know for sure, but what if you offered cakecentral stuff as the prizes? Anyone who is an addict would LOVE to get an apron or a shirt (I know I would). It might prevent those who are just on here for the prizes from entering too.

yes? no?

Good thinking Gina, but them what happens when I win all the prizes?? Do I share the doubles or triples of an item with you... LMAO
boy I have to much time on my hands.. But yes I was wondering about that too veejaytx. I did not get into the contest because my camera was down for awhile..aahhggg!!!!!!! probably a good thing, some dang good cakes in that contest.. very creative!! BUT it is ready and waiting for the next contest.. I still cant think of what it could be... ME and HUBBY with a few more hours to ourselves!!.. OMG Jackie are you taking the kids to the movies? HAHA dang I'm confused!
