Hello this is just an announcement of a new contest. every month on the first the theme of that month will be posted, and the winners from the previous month will be announced. so for this month i am just looking for suggestions for future months. I got the idea for this from the monthly gargoyles contest. http://mgc.gargoyles-fans.org/

So look out for the new post august 1st! :P

Im not yelling and here is prob:

 

Rule 2 - When you make a contest the overall rules of that Contest must be stated Clearly, too brief summarys causes confusion and many members to become Spam Nazi's.

 

Rule 3 - You MUST state PRIZES for your contest.

Reps - You can give out a Maximum of 6 reps in Total within your contest as prizes, anymore then 6 reps within your contest and you will get flamed by members for breaking Contest rules.

 

The recomended way to give them out is;

 

1st - 3 Reps

2nd - 2 Reps

3rd - 1 Rep

 

Points - You can give out a number of points YOU OWN as prizes. You CAN ONLY give out points you have at the start of the contest, for example;

 

If you have 60 points and state 1st prize gets 70 points for winning, 'as you will get some more points later', that is now against the rules, only offer what you have when the contest is started.

 

Extras - Some contests have extra prizes which count of none of thee stated above. Some examples are allowing winners cards to be featured in Fan-Fics, or making someone a free banner of avatar.

 

Please note if you state your giving a prize to the winners, at the end of the contest the prizes MUST be given.

 

Rule 6 - Pointless Contests

 

No pointless Contests are to be made, which means contests which say;

 

"Hey all, here's the contest. Make some cards, and if I like it, you win."

 

"Make cards for me. 1rep to winner."

 

Correct Information (Contest rules, prizes, end date) MUST be given or your contest will be Temp Locked / Perma Closed.

 

 

Rule 8 - Credit To Bhim For This Rule!

 

This one's very important. And I mean VERY IMPORTANT. A lot of users post the following: "Must have perfect spelling and grammer." Is there a problem with that sentence? I think so. Grammer. It's spelled GRAMMAR. With an "A," not an "E." Don't tell others to have perfect spelling and grammar until you have it yourself. Or at least have enough that you can spell that sentence correctly. Make yourself look legit. Those from Australia and Britain are exempt, although more than 80% of you guys aren't...

 

 

Rule 11 - You MUST have an End date and time or a required amount of entrants before you close your contest for grading / choosing the winner.

Rule 11 Subsection 1 - You MUST post the end date in one of the following formats (though, the year is usually not needed):

a. Day Month Year (ex: 28 April 2008, etc.)

b. Month Day, Year (ex: April 28, 2008, etc.)

 

Rule 11 Subsection 2 - End times must have an appropriate timezone. "Whenever I feel like it on X day of Y Month" is no longer acceptable.

 

Rule 11 Subsection 3 - Contests with at least one person who has reserved an entry, but has not posted their submission, cannot have their end date/time adjusted to an earlier or later date/time. However, an optional extra 12 hours can be given to any reserved members to get their entries in. It is up to the contest creator whether they allow this extra time or not.

 

 

Rule 12 - Credit to Bhim for this Rule!

 

You CANNOT only allot for a certain number of entrants [i.e. "Only five people can enter]. You're holding a competition. This means YOU'RE grading everything. It's your problem your contest is so popular that twenty people enter with twenty cards each.

 

My opinion on this rule is agreement with Bhim, but i will be more liniant and let it off, as long as conflict does not arise.

 

Rule 14 - This is a new rule, and its in place to clean up this section with Dud contests.

 

If your contest has not had a post in it for at least 15 days it will automatically be moved to Finished Contests.

 

If a contest this way is moved, and you want reopen it then PM myself or browarod and we shall move it back.

 

So to Sum up

 

Your contest will be Perma / Temp Locked if you do not;

 

 

State an End date

Give correct prizes

Give no sensible explanation

 

Or if you Make more then 1 contest

 

ok now pls stop pming me

 

p.s. u must be a 2 star to give rep (25 posts)
