In fact, I DID do a giveaway thread during the month of August when MSC was first on sale: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=272577.0
I actually have some left over from that giveaway, which I previously said I would split up among the top promoters. I'd still like to give some money to the top promoters from the first giveaway, but the value of MSC has risen a lot since then, so I think it's fair to reserve most of it for another giveaway.
There's still 394.84328263 MSC earmarked for giveaway here: http://mastercoin-explorer.com/addresses/15og4WXZPwkMnnsb3dj6HqgTUfcRLx4J9b
Running the giveaway took a LOT of my time, but if someone trustworthy wants to get it running again, I can turn over that 394 MSC. I gave bits of MSC out for people who wrote blog posts, changed their forum signature, or otherwise made some good-faith effort to promote the project. I would suggest continuing the model where you have to at least tweet about MSC to qualify for some.
Given how much time it took me to run the giveaway, I think it would be fair to have the person running it take a bit off the top for themselves. Maybe 10%?
If someone wants to run this, let me know. I'm a little paranoid about trusting someone with that much money. I'd probably not give it all to you at once, no matter how trustworthy you are
Any volunteers?

I would volunteer but I don't even know how to send Mastercoins out yet. How about you divide the responsibility among a few trusted people so that one of them can take a break and the other can resume?
