Okay, what would I do?
I would aid my friends...
-sounds fake. It's not, because it seems that half of my friends' birthdays are coming up in three days and I have made a standard of giving 20k+ gifts, lolol. Still Too clichee, so I got nothhing so far.
I would update my wishlist...
-sound greedy. It might be, since I want a thing or two, but who doesn't want something for themselves?
Too clichee, nothin' so far.
I would give out random donations...
-no one in the history of forever buys that. Like hell you will.
If I get some left overs (from what I plan to do that would be like 10k...) I might, especcailly if I love the thing they are questing for.
STILL Too clichee, nothin' so far.
Umm...
Pick me and see what I would do ;D

Damnnn, 700k... How generous! 4laugh I think there have only been a couple other threads (not including any of the official guild contests I've hosted) in the history of Burn that have offered a prize anywhere near that large!
... & this thread only has 3 pages of posts! What the hell, guys?! Contests that are offering like 10k as a prize have more posts than this contest does!
... You know, when I clicked the "reply" button, my original intention was to try & see if I could win one of those 100k prizes... I mean, regardless of HOW much gold someone has, 100k is a lot to just have given to you because you posted one post that contained a good reason(s) you should be chosen to receive it... &, I figured I might as well give this contest a shot since I could definitely benefit from having another 100k to use as prize money for Burn's next big contest, &/or all the donations I'm always giving people who post in my donation thread in this forum & who post their quests in the Quest subforum, etc. etc. ... This guild is expensive to maintain! & since my gold always goes to other people in one way or another, I figured that that might be a winning reason.
However, after giving it some thought, I'd like to do something completelyyy different: If you'd like to/be willing to, I'd like to collaborate with you a bit on this contest... I mean, you'd of course still be the main contest host; it's your contest, that would never change. However, I could contribute tons of gold to this contest & make the total prize amount much higher than it already is which would enable the contest to -- among other things -- last for a longer period of time. & I could move this thread to the main forum so it gets a lot more attention & submissions & posts. Oh, & I'm pretty damn good at putting together an awesome & official looking contest thread, so if you'd want I could "spruce" the contest thread up some.
Honestly, I've always really, really wanted to host a contest just like this, but for some reason I've never gotten around to it. Plus, Burn needs a new official big contest, & I've been too preoccupied to make it right now, so I'd love to turn this contest into that! :3
I figure you'll probably read this response within the next few days... Whenever you read it, please PM me & let me know your thoughts on all of that, even if your thoughts on it all are simply, "sorry elyzia, I appreciate the offer, but no thanks".

This is a really nice idea.
Let's see... if you pick me, I'll use the gold wisely and spent it all on a massive shopping spree! whee

If I had 100k I would buy a few things for myself and donate money to a few people I know. They have a quest and I wish I could help them!

You are very generous!
If you were to give the gold to me, I would spend it on one of my wanted items, probably the Winter Rose.

Very Nice Idea!
Yesterday, an anonymous person donated an item to me so that I could sell it and afford the Celestial Wrap I was questing. What a nice feeling that was!
If I was given 100K, I would like to pay it forward. After putting 50K towards my current quest, I would find a random Gaian and purchase them a gift - preferably a Noob since, like many of you have said, it is hard to collect gold/items when first joining Gaia. I have been on here for about a year and I'm just now able to get some of my "dream items", thanks to the random kindness of others!
heart Good Lucky Everyone! heart

It would be nice to be able to get something from my wish list. I would also like to help out one of my friends with her avatar. 3nodding

Here is my reason!:
I used to have a lot of money, but... well, to be honest. I spent about half of it, and donated the other half.
That is very nice to be giving away that much money. ^3^

What shall befall this world... I'd like to receive 100k because I want to complete my dream avi and buy all my wishlist items. Pretty simple and un-unique idea but yes, that's what I would like to do.
...when ninjas descend from the raining sky?

I remember when i firsted started gaia and i was so pissed off about how little gold I had,so If I do win,i would share it with a newcomer on gaia.In fact,i might even give him the whole thing since I still wouldnt be able to get anything from my wish list,either that or i would earn money by selling and buying cheap prices and then host a donation myself.still,even if I dont win,I'm proud to know that not every rich person on gaia is greedy.
