Time comes for which the participants are waiting eagerly – Results of ProBlogineer Xmas Blog Contest

I got lots of entries which made the contest more competitive (Without competition there is no fun in the contest ). Also I made 3 more updates on “How you can collect more points and increase your winning changes.” Good response with the updates too.:)

Took me around 3 hours to sort the things out. Some people collected as low as 1 point, while some (e.g. akira07) collected as high as 40 points.:eek:

Ok, without much talking, lets go to the winners. Here how the winners were selected :

• Used http://random.org/lists/
• Added all the participants name in the list multiplied by their points. So if you had 5 points, your name was added 5 times in the list. So you can earn more than 1 prize also.
• Clicked Randomize only once.
• And wooha, here is a top 20 list!!

So the top 8 participants from the above list wins :
