It's not just about the mass of emails being sent out, but the likelihood of people resenting receiving the email, appreciating the email or participating in the poll. 57,000 people are *not* going to vote in the Coding Competition. The question is to find out how to target those who are likely to. High participation in the forums or rating products is likely to be an indicator (I would've thought). As is more recent karma (people who created accounts in 2005 for the 770 may well have fallen by the way-side). So, the flip side challenge to you as the Coding Competition organisers is: who do you expect to participate, and how can that demographic be identified? I assume you've got the emails to be sent carefully crafted already, and are on the wiki for crowdsourcing review? (The other aspect about mass emailing is ensuring the email itself is as polished as possible).
