Wonderful, I'll keep that in mind. I don't plan on ever charging a fee because I agree that it would discourage people. Basically the prize is an amount that I felt comfortable chipping in to promote the event, the digital gift card for F# swag is from the F# Foundation. I feel like a hundred bucks is enough that most people could think of something fun they could get with it. I'm hoping putting a little skin in the game helps people get involved and feel like they're actually winning. I can also put up a post about the winning game on the F# reddit, but I'll need to clear that with the other mods if we can sticky that or something to make it feel special.
