Winners were supposed to be paid yesterday, but I haven't received my $100 prize. Just wondering if others have been paid before I ask them.

[SBR Drew]

Got it that s a nice contest...I expect you to be paid today/tomorrow as most books were not as staffed yesterday due to the All Star break (no MLB ). Let us know when you are paid.

[keithdylan]

I got paid Tuesday.
