*If you are a registered NaBlo member; if you have entered your blog in the November 2009 blogroll; and if you can manage to update your blog at least once a day from November 1, 2009 to November 30, 2009, you will automatically be in the running for a prize.

TO BE PERFECTLY CLEAR: Not everyone who performs all of the above will win a prize, but everyone who does all that has a chance.

TO AWARD PRIZES, I use the random list generator at Random.org to generate a list based on the November 2009 blogroll. Then I start at the top of the list and check the first blog to see if it was updated every day in November 2009. If it was, the blogger wins a prize. If it wasn't, I go to the next blog on down the list until all the prizes are given away.

NABLOPOMO ignores the quality of your posts and rewards the quantity!

ONCE ALL THE PRIZE givers and winners have been matched up I will publish the list of winners on this very page. If I lock myself in a closet and ignore my family's cries for food and love, I can usually accomplish this heroic feat of blog reading in less than 24 hours and publish the list of winners by the end of the day December 1.

NB: I have no way of knowing whether you cheated or not, so you're on your honor.

YOU MAY NOT put yourself in the running for certain prizes only, sorry. If you are awarded something that doesn't really suit you as a person, I hope that you'll be a good sport and accept it graciously; you can always donate it to charity / re-gift it at Christmas / use it for a giveaway on your own blog.
