A21. It's very good as it will greatly promote the product.
A22. As long as people make meaningful comments it is great
A23. yes it bring more exposure to your page and while they are on there something else that you have posted may catch their eye
A24. It keeps people coming back to the site and adding new comment, which their friends will see and probably will add theirs too.
A25. It's good for you, but you'll never have a last poster, so it's bad for anyone leaving a comment.
A26. It will get attention and that's what you want right??
A27. I would be willing to give it a shot
A28. sounds good to me

A41. This is certainly interesting.
A42. Yes I could use that.
A43. Yes it is a good idea it makes it fun in a way

A51. everybody is motivated by money
A52. as good as anything else
A53. It sounds like an easy and fun promotion.
A54. In these times of economic distress, freemoney is a great promotion!
A55. IT is unique and these days $25 is a lot of money so I imagine a lot of people will visit the site.
A56. The winner comes in last. Nice change.
A57. it gets people talking about the product and your name out there.
A58. Money always draws people in
A59. Indeed it is good promotion
A60. Anything free is cool, I would suggest an idea how long it would last til I am the last person and a topic to talk about?
A61. Sure. It will make people comment for a long time hoping to be last.
A62. It would be very unexpecting to tell someone that their comment would receive $25. It will certainly make people's day's brighter
B1. Although you will get a lot of hits on your website, most people will not leave useful comments. Only the desperate few who need the $25 will hang in to the last moments to win. You may cause your site to go down if it has too much traffic.
B2. Average, more or less luck to win--insufficient encouragement to "spread the word."
B3. It would be more fair to make a drawing and make the selection random so everyone has a chance to win.
B4. It's an idea headed in the right direction, but people would just keep commenting.
B5. There are no rules that people can read, which means there is basically never a cut-off time to post comments so it is impossible to know if or when somebody will actually win
B6. People will post nonsense in order to try to be the last one to comment.
B7. It will never end, someone will keep posting to be the last
B8. It sounds good, but what will determine "the last"? Is there a timeframe? People can just keep adding to it.
B9. I prefer B, saying it's not a good promotion, as it seems a bit silly... and also a way to annoy a lot of people, since almost nobody will win.
B10. It doesn't make sense because anyone can add a comment at anytime and there is no sure way of knowing who will be last, which makes it very unfair
B11. There is always the chance you will get hit with a spambot.
B12. Because it will lead to an annoying amount of posts
B13. Option B because not very many people have commented on it.
B14. The promotion could go on forever.
B15. It doesn't seem very likely that the winner will get any reward.
B16. people will not want to post because they don't want to be first
B17. you will get comments you don't want, just to put a comment
B18. the last? no... how about the 100th?
B19. Not enough money
B20. I think that this promotion will be never ending. People that have commented previously will check back every few hours and if they aren't the last comment they will comment again.
B21. Last one to comment by when. You don't give a time line. This could go on forever.
B22. No, I don't see how it is a promotion. There is no defined end time. The winner could be chosen under prejudice.
B23. it would be hard to get to the last comment becasue someone would be waiting so they could be the last comment
B24. Since, people might wait to post
B25. It will just keep people babbling without anything to say just to get the last word.
B26. Option B because it is harder to track the last person than the first person to post.
B27. I don't like the promotion as it would never end. People will always try to post something after the last one and it would get frustrating. Also, it would take away from the quality of the posts as people would just comment to comment.
B28. i don't like FB
B29. Doesn't make much sense
B30. You'll never get to the last post, it would be very annoying, and not worth it to a lot of folks in my opinion.
B31. sounds dumb
B32. It seems like you are just trying to get a lot of comments, people are posting dumb stuff over and over to try and be the last one.
B33. How do you define last?
B34. It's very random, there's not really a benefit to the site to attract people regularly...just until someone wins it.
B35. I think a $25 promotion is attractive, but it should be to a random person, not the last
B36. how do you determine the last person
B37. The winner should be random and not the last one to comment.
B38. No because no one will ever be last, comments will just keep coming.
