For a HUGE contest, for example giving away $500 worth of prizes. How long do you feel a contest like this should run for. Do you think it should have a specific date, or do you think it should be for an achievement. Such as, this prize will be given out once we reach 10,000 posts, or 1,000 topics. Or something along those lines. Post your thoughts below.

It depends on the site size I guess. For example, if your site is brand new then you should have a somewhat lengthy contest duration to give users the time to find out about it and enter. For a contest with over $500 worth of prizes, a milestone is a good indicator for when to end it.
