So…like I said yesterday, in the first leg of the grand prize competition, the grand prize pledgers will compete to be one of 25 finalists for the prize. The 25 finalists will be chosen by random name generator. Each grand prize pledger gets ONE entry simply for making it this far. HOWEVER, there are ways to get your name into the hat more than once.
(NOTE: Earning extra entries is NOT mandatory. If you are good with your name being in the hat only once, sit back, relax and enjoy the show!)

You may earn extra entries by doing any combination of the following between now and Wednesday at 11:59 p.m. (EST). Once you've completed your extra entries, come back to this post and leave a comment saying what you did so I can verify! (You can either do this daily or in one blog comment no later than Wednesday, but PLEASE be sure to leave your name in the blog comment!).
