Bahamut - Envoy of the End Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 To celebrate my return as a full time member of this site (quieten down with those trumpets and fireworks), I'm going to hold my first contest in god knows how long. Since the section seemed to take ill and be reduced to a thin, bloody, slightly green husk of a section anyway. As the learned of you might have put two and two together, Lazarus was a character originally used in the Bible who was bought back to life by Jesus (alledgedly, I'm not into that sort of thing), and the name has been used for many characters and events in books/TV/etc to do with things being bought back from the dead. So this contest will, surprise surprise, be based upon resurrection. Tournament Format: This contest will be four rounds: A qualifying round and three rounds proper.There is no limit to people who can submit a card for the qualifying round.To enter the qualifier will cost you the mere pittance of twenty points to be sent for me (this elixer isn't cheap to make y'know).The qualifying period will last one week (ending 24th October at 12:00 midday BST), at which point I will judge the entries, and the best seven will progress. Then we will have the three rounds proper, which will have more specific instructions in terms of your challenge. Seven will become five, five will become three, and three will become one, the immortal champion of the risen dead. Prize: 1st place - Love, respect, glory, 2 likes/reps, and 100 points.2nd place - Polite applause, a like/rep, and 50 points3rd place - 25 points. Nothing more extravagent. Qualifying Round: Submit your points, and one card: A monster (can be Effect/Fusion/Ritual/Synchro/Xyz) that can special summon itself from the graveyard.Written cards are accepted. General Rules and Stuff: - I'm the only judge. My rule, or that of intervening mods, is law. Although hopefully it won't come to that.- No spamming, no flaming, no trying to judge for me, etc, etc, etc- To check you've read all this, please include the word 'Lazarus' somewhere in your post saying your entering/with your card. Contestants:- Sage of Dreams (Card check, points check)- Gandorator (Card check, points check)---- And of course, have fun. There's no point otherwise.

Great&PowerfulTrixie Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 can it be a toon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut - Envoy of the End Posted October 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 This kicked off fast. I'm part of two other tournaments right now, but what the hey, joining. Sure thing, accepted you sort of, although your post is missing something. can it be a toon? Well, yeah, I was kinda thinking that would have fell under effect monsters. But yes, Toon, Union, Gemini, Spirit (actually not Spirit as they traditionally can't be special summoned), Tuner, any kind of existing monster. Just not a spell or trap for this one. And it must summon itself from the dead and itself only; not other monsters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sage of Dreams Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 Like that?By the way, is it okay with cards that can special summon themselves when discarded, since they're technically in the graveyard at one point?Entering that, though, would be pointless, since you already gave feedback on it.

I'll assume you were aiming at 'like what?'. You missed a word as part of your app, as part of the rules. Just threw it in there at the bottom to make sure people read them. And yes that does summon itself from the graveyard, and would count. You could enter it if you wished despite already having reviewed it, I didn't exactly say that much on it. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sage of Dreams Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 Well, I'm stumped. I did bold a word, which I thought was it, because bolding was pretty darn prominent in your posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut - Envoy of the End Posted October 17, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 Okay I really didn't want to make that big an issue out of this but because I don't want to go back on my own rules, and because you have just admitted you haven't seen it. - To check you've read all this, please include the word 'Lazarus' somewhere in your post saying your entering/with your card. Just felt it was necessary given some people on here, and now I have to uphold it (even though it makes me look really anal). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sage of Dreams Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 Oops, okay. Fixed original for justice. Card will be up...now.This card's original ATK is equal to its Level x400. If this card is discarded by a card effect: You can discard 1 Monster, except "Vallis The Star Dragon"; Special Summon this card. If this card is Special Summoned by its own effect: This card's original Level becomes 5. If this card destroys a monster successfully: Inflict 800 points of damage to your opponent.

Valkyrus Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 I can already tell you in forewarning that something is missing in that post.(Lord knows I missed it myself) oh..I did read it all, but forgot to add it.Lazarus well it's a simple card, but I think it has its uses.I also tried to make it match the theme as closely as possible, hence the Name, Attribute, picture and effect are somewhat related to Lazarus/Christianity You can remove this card while it's "dead" to revive it after a few "days"And when it's "revived" it can perform a "miracle" eh, not my best, but I didn't want to go for an overly complicated effect.

Bahamut - Envoy of the End Posted October 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 Friendly bump. Erm, I appreciate the thought, but this thread was in the upper half of page 1 when you bumped it, so really became no more prominant for it. People just don't seem into the contest section anymore unfortunately :( not so friendly bump Hello. Who are you and what's your point? ^Stop spamming please. Could arguably be considered spamming. Let me manage please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sage of Dreams Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 Sorry, I was just kind of pissed off because this guy posted unnecessary things in my contest as well, and it was fairly clear he was spamming. Also, you can bump every 24 hours. (I'm fairly certain this goes to all of YCM) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut - Envoy of the End Posted October 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 If we don't get some more entries in the next 24 hours or so I may have to call this off (points will of course be refunded). And I've NEVER had to do that to a contest I've hosted here. #SectionIsDead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut - Envoy of the End Posted October 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 Sorry guys. Contest cancelled due to lack of interest. Tried to refund points, but YCM kept having a fit. Probably explains why no-one entered. Have repped you both for your interest instead, as that earns you points and reps are more valuable anyway. Thanks anyway. Damn disappointing this section is so inactive, especially if its because of the site format change like we've experienced here. Will try to think of another contest (free one) to get people involved again. Lock/Move/Delete/Whatever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
