If you’re sending in a batch of suggestions in one sitting, please send them in one e-mail, not one-per. It gives me less mess to keep track of, and that’s always a good thing.

Also, please don’t send me questions with your entries or just questions with the Contest Entry subject line. If I’m checking my e-mail in the morning, or from work, I just dump every e-mail that looks like a contest entry in another folder and ignore them until I get home and have a chance to sit down for a bit. In other words, your questions won’t get answered until I have lots of free time, even if I could have sent off a quick reply.

And just as a note, if I send you a message that says “Thanks for entering” it’s a good thing. Or at least as good as you’re going to get. I am not going to comment on the quality of your entry, so it’s not a rejection notice.

If I send you an e-mail letting you know that your suggestion has already been submitted by someone else, it basically means I’ve got an exact duplicate suggestion (excluding spelling errors, puncuation, or capitalization differences) that showed up in my Inbox before yours did.

As for whether any suggestions have caught my eye, noone knows but me, and I’m not talking until the contest is over.
