OGaming announces Echoes of Faydwer contest |
Ó
Halloween's coming up, and what comes with it aside from all the pumpkins and the ghosties and ghoulies? Why, costumes, of course! In the spirit of Halloween and in celebration of the new character race called the Fae, OGaming has announced their official EverQuest 2 – Echoes of Faydwer contest. They've got free beta accounts at stake here, so if you're interested all you have to do to join is to dress up like one of the Fae.
Yep, to enter, dress yourself up like a fairy and take a picture.
Well, according to the organizers themselves, the purpose of this contest is "to completely embarrass you for a chance to win a slot in the Echoes of Faydwer beta." That's right, no way are they going to let you guys get embarrassed for nothing. Seven winners will be chosen, with the first prize winner getting two beta accounts, Special VIP title in the OGaming forums, and a copy of Echoes of Faydwer via digital download.
The second place winner will have their account flagged for beta, get a Special VIP title in the OGaming forums, and a copy of Echoes of Faydwer through digital download. The third, fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh place winners will each get a beta slot and a copy of Echoes of Faydwer through digital download.
Judging will be done by the OGaming staff and the OGaming community based on the following criteria:
Costume – The more you look like a Fae the better your chances. It would also help if you've got mad tailoring skillz or if you moonlight as a plastic surgeon.
Setting – You will receive points based on how extreme your location is, so most likely you won't get a whole lot of points if your photo is set in your living room. Unless your living room is in somewhere like the Ninth Circle of Hell.
Originality – Of course, overall originality presented in the submission will be judged, so don't just copy some elf costume you saw on a magazine or something. Be creative!
Every contest has to have rules, and this one is no exception. It's pretty straightforward, really. First, absolutely no Photoshopping. The usage of Photoshop or any other image manipulation software is prohibited and will result in an instant disqualification. Second, all entries must be submitted to the OGaming EQ2 team before 5:00pm PST Monday, October 23rd. Also, only one entry per person, so if you take too many pictures just sell them on eBay or something. Lastly, pictures must be in good taste to be considered. No nudity, extreme violence or adult content. You can dress up like a bad elf, just don't take a picture of you doing any bad stuff.
The winners will be announced on Tuesday the 24th during OGaming's weekly EQ2's-Day broadcast. Additional beta slots will also be given away during the show to some lucky listeners so be sure to tune in even if you didn't join the contest.
Alright people, get those crafting and tailoring tools out and start sewing like crazy!
