This is a good prize. Will there not be a judging panel to pick the winner though? Deciding a winner based solely on 'likes' and 'shares' turns the competition into a popularity contest though. I know you want to promote engagement with your page, but the entrant who can drum up the most interest being the final winner doesn't actually seem that fair a way of deciding to me.

oh... so it's a facebook popularity contest.

Why do people do this type of 'contest', don't they know there are sites out there to specifically 'like' a post/user on facebook....meaning they can rig the results.
