3. No top poster prizes.
4. Rules to ensure its webmasters not surfers playing just like I posted above. #12
5. Max 14 days for each contest.
6. Strict enforcement on the rules.
Good suggestions.

I think to add to that, contests should be limited to a week at most and also the prizes should be reachable not like 1000 posts apart- that encourages tons of posts by surfers. It should be reachable like every 50 or every 100.
