Amazing Race contest

I will be announcing the Amazing Race Contest rules very early, even though Amazing Race starts 2 weeks after Survivor starts.

Since the Mayor has suggested software as a prize this time around I am going to devise a slightly different prize structure, to allow for more winners and more fun.
The random winner, chosen from all entrants that have at least 1 point, will receive the Mayor's software prize.
Anyone will be able to try for additional prizes by committing $5 or a gift certificate with a value of at least $5 to our "pot" of prizes. You will not be required to physically send me the $5 item. You will simply be added to our list of contestants with a notation of what kind of prize you have committed to send to one of the winners. The list might look something like this: (all speculation)

Contestant A's name: $5
Contestant B's name: $5 gc to Pizza Hut
Contestant C's name: $5
Contestant D's name: $5 gc to Walmart
Contestant E's name: $5 gc to Blockbuster
Contestant F's name: $5 gc to Target

etc.

Depending on how many people we get who take this option of contributing $5 in some form, we will have additional winners as follows- highest total points keeps his/her own contribution and receives 4 more. (Requires 5 entrants)
Second highest points keeps his/her own contribution and receives 3 more (Requires 9 total entrants)
Random drawng done from my infamous hat keeps his/her own contribution and receives 3 more (Requires 13 entrants)

If we have more than 13 entrants, the 3rd highest scorer will receive some money/gc's too. But we only had 13 total entrants last season, so this probably will not happen. I hope some of the die-hard Survivor fans will join in on our fun this time around.

Comment here freely. Questions. Complaints. All welcome.
