CONTEST CONTEST CONTEST
HELLO FELLOW JAKTARDS! IT IS THE MARVELOUS MONTH OF MAR. THIS REQUIRES CELEBRATION.
IT IS ALSO ALMOST OUR BELOVED COMMUNITY'S THIRD ANNIVERSARY: MARCH 16TH! TO CELEBRATE I THOUGHT I'D ISSUE A CONTEST. AND SINCE THIS IS THE JAK FANDOM, AND WE ARE capslock_jak, WHAT BETTER MEANS OF A CONTEST THAN PENNANTZ?
BASICALLY THIS IS HOW IT'LL GO:
1. PEOPLE SUBMIT THEIR FAVOURITE PENNANTZ. I'LL SET UP AN ENTRY WHERE PEOPLE CAN LEAVE A COMMENT LINKING TO TEN OF THEIR FAVOURITE PENNANTZ; ONLY TEN. WRITING OR ART, IT DOESN'T MATTER! ALL COMMENTS WILL BE SCREENED AT FIRST SO AS TO TRY AND AVOID BIAS OR ANYTHING.
2. ONCE THE DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS IS OVER I WILL TALLY UP THE NUMBERS. THEN, A NEW POST WILL GO UP WITH A POLL WHERE PEOPLE CAN VOTE FOR THE TOP X NUMBER OF PENNANTZ. I'M THINKING EITHER TOP FIVE OR TOP TEN; OPINIONS?
(THE ORIGINAL SUBMISSIONS POST WILL ALSO BE UNSCREENED SO PEOPLE WILL KNOW THAT THE RESULTS ARE LEGIT.)
3. THE POLL WILL CLOSE ON MARCH 15TH AND THE WINNER WILL BE ANNOUNCED ON MARCH 16TH! WINNER WILL BE AUTHOR OF THE PENNANTZ THAT GETS THE MOST VOTES. SIMPLE, YES?
FOR A PRIZE (BECAUSE THAT'S ALL EVERYONE WANTS TO KNOW ABOUT) I AM OFFERING ONE YEAR OF PAID ACCOUNT TIME. IT CAN BE FOR YOUR ACCOUNT OR AN RP ACCOUNT FOR THOSE RPERS AMONGST US. IF THE WINNER BY CHANCE DOESN'T WANT OR NEED A PAID ACCOUNT, THEY CAN TALK WITH ME AND WE'LL WORK SOMETHING OUT.
I'M SORRY I CAN'T OFFER SECOND AND THIRD PLACE PRIZES, BUT I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY FOR ANYTHING ELSE. IF PEOPLE WANT I CAN GIVE EVERYONE WHO MAKES IT TO THE TOP TEN A REQUEST FOR AN ICON, BUT I CAN'T DO ANYTHING FANCY. :C
THAT'S PRETTY MUCH IT. IF YOU'RE EXCITED OR INTERESTED LET ME KNOW, AND IF YOU WANT TO SUGGEST ALTERNATIVE WAYS OF HANDLING IT LET ME KNOW! I JUST WANTED TO DO SOMETHING FOR THE COMMUNITY BECAUSE I REALLY LOVE YOU GUYS. <3 THANKS FOR READING!
