How to Enter Burning Questions: Round 4
****Updated rules - please read****
People search for stuff at Instructables all the time. Sometimes they find what they're looking for, and sometimes they don't. But there are a few common how-tos that come up often enough that make us wonder, "why don't we have an Instructable on that?"
The answer is of course, because no one has written one. But you can change all that.
Below I've listed a number of popular "wanted Instructables". If you write an Instructable about one of these topics we will send you a free Instructables Burning Questions Prize Pack consisting of a robot patch and a Burning Questions bumper sticker!
Wanted Instructables:
If multiple Instructables from multiple users are submitted as answers to the same question, they will all be entered into the contest group. Once the contest closes, we'll pick the Instructable that answers the question best and declare them the winner. So, there's an incentive to check back in on the group, see who's submitting what, and make sure that your answer is the best it can possibly be!
Unlike previous rounds of Burning Questions, prize notifications will be mailed after the close of the contest rather then along the way as before.
Prizes:
Grand Prize: Burning Question Prize Pack
The Burning Questions Prize Pack consists of a custom made Burning Questions bumper sticker and a brand new robot patch!
Value: $10
Open to enter: 2008-03-27 12:01 AM PST
Deadline for entries: 2008-05-01 11:59 PM PST
