Daily Giveaway Prizes and Grand Prize

In our 5-day workshop, we give away Daily Prizes and a Grand Prize. Before using HeySummit we selected the winners manually. I am exploring how we can automate this process with HeySummit. For the Daily Prizes, I would like to link a Giveaway Prize to a specific talk. E.g., Day 1 Video and Game Plan. We announce the winner 24 hours after the start time of the talk. This motivates participants to attend the following days. Eligibility depends on completing a task. Only participants who post their answer to a daily question in the Event Hub qualify and stand a chance of winning. They can do this by entering their answer in the chat window on the talk page. Grand Prize Participants who completed all 5 Daily tasks qualify for winning the Grand Prize. I am not the only one who would benefit from this. I am in groups with thousands of people worldwide who organize this type of multi-day challenges as a lead generation tool.

Thanks Henk for the feedback. This is an interesting idea - however since the event lobby is currently in early beta, I don't think it's feasible that we'll be able to build out the ability to track certain lobby interactions in order to filter those into giveaway criteria. But I think this is a good idea for a medium to long-term solution, so I'll keep it here to see whether it garners any further interest from the community.
