OT -- Guessing baby's b'day and weight game

[Avanaar]

Roke's creativity has made me come back to my own desire to have a contest on my baby's blog for people to guess the day he'll be born and his weight.  I know they do this at baby showers, but since I had mine by mail, I thought using my blog would be the next best thing.

The only things holding me up are:
1. How do I go about awarding the winner if I let them guess birthday *and* weight?  Say someone picks the day he's born, but is off by a pound ... and another person guesses his exact weight but is off by a day?  Would that be a tie?  LOL.  I don't know how it's done at regular baby showers ...so I'm not sure how to go about it.

2. What should I give for prizes?  Most likely it'd have to be something small that could be mailed easily.  I've thought about gift cards and decided that wouldn't be so bad.  =D  But then I go back to question #1!  ^.^

So any suggestions or comments you guys have would be great!!  I'd love to hear 'em so I can get the contest going asap!  =D

Okay, I feel silly for posting in my own thread two times ...lol

But I wanted to let you all know that I started my own game at ExpectNet!  The contest begins today and I will close the guessing on 12/20.  The winner will be announced shortly after Jaiden's arrival and they will receive a $10 gift card!  =D  If you want to play, just go to my profile and head over to the baby's blog (or mine ...I have a link there too that will take you to his page for the game).

I posted my question on one of my Babycenter boards and one of the ladies there sent me the link to a site that creates and keeps track of the kind of game I was looking for.  It has a points system so it lets you know who wins!  

I thought I'd share with you ladies, just in case some of you were thinking of having a similar game!
