Title: IE Christmas Giveaway! Competition Details - READ
Post by: delling on December 21, 2007, 06:08:29 pm
Hi!

Okay, so someone had the brilliant idea of giving something back to the community this Christmas, and so here it is.

Three contests, two of which will be discussed here.

1) The treasure hunt - 22nd December, 16:00
(More info here: http://xoops.iron-edge.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=2525.0)

2) Quick prize draw - Ends midnight 31st December.

3) Artistic/creative competition - Ends midnight 31st December.

---

Quick Prize Draw
Simply REPLY TO THIS THREAD with a creative reason of why you should receive a prize from Great Father Winter. You can keep it simple, or you can give us an entire paragraph. You need only reply to this thread to enter this competition.

There will be 3 winners for this competition. The top prize will most likely be chosen by the guild leaders of IE, and the lower prizes could be random-drawn.


Artistic/Creative Competition
Okay, this one's slightly more interesting. You have to CREATE something. A screenshot, a movie, a comic, a short story -- something you've spent time to create.

The idea is for it to be CHRISTMAS-THEMED. To be honest, it doesn't have to be particuarly Christmassy. Just something cool -- either IE-related, or Dunemaul-related. Something that you've obviously spent time on to look/feel neat. That's all!

You need to post entries for this one in this thread:
http://xoops.iron-edge.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=2524.0

The prizes for this one are larger --


* If we have significant interest in this competition it will be bracers AND shoulders! Both! That's like... more than 3k gold!
--

That's all. You can put any questions here in this thread, along with your entries for the quick prize draw.

Good luck :)

-D

Hi, I'm krellion lvl 70 mage and I'm a ganker... oops wrong meeting..

Well, O'ld mr Winter should bring me a present this year to reaffirm my good nature and nicety. of late I've been on the old money and honour trail...farming items..slaying allies fo any level who might be in my way..or mayebe a little out of my way and all in all losing my halo.  :P

Once there was a time I would help lowbie allies out of good nature, seek out honourable fights and relish the struggles of equal combat. Now I'm as mean as scrooge ganking allies on half health all cos they earn me honour...

So show me the light as it were, bring on the 3 ghosts and make me see through good eyes again.

I should be given a present as I've been working hard for my guild throughout the year, and even took the time to raid every weekend while being in the army 100 kilometres from where I live normally, costing me a traintrip back and forth each weekend.

Also I think I've generally been a nice and helpful druid and all that stuff.

Well, I think I should get a present from Great Father Christmas, because back in the day, the old days... the really old days, back when BWL was hard, and IE whore ½ blues I decided to spend some money. I decided to buy a brand new game, and some gametime, only so I could create a character on the horde side, and talk to people.
I got into IE as an alt, fair enough. I leveled it a bit, talked on the IE TS (yes, they had a TS back then, noobs :P), but eventually, I stopped playing that mage, I can't seem to recall why anymore, but I probably had an awesome reason.

Anyway, some time later, I log on and see that my alt has been kicked for inactivity, I cried a bit, and I think that to heal the wound in my soul, a present would be a good thing!

Oh and I love IE and Christmas bla bla bla etc.

Lots of Love, Zania.

I should be given the prize beacuse i listened to you guys and gave Nachmanun a punch in the face so he started to cry, and then i caressed him from behind, so it was like comforting a flatchested girl, wich was totally awesome. Jod Gul!

I am going to win this competition, because it is the will of god. You can't disprove it because it's religious, and religion is not a matter of proves and facts, but a matter of believing.

Also, santa claus doesn't excist.

I think Great Father Wintermas should give me the present because....

This one time I was wondering down the road when a witch came along and turned me into a newt... but I got better, and an evil ninja robot stabbed me and a nazi came and ripped off all my clothes.. Luckily I was close to Mothercare, so I bought another pair.

Godzilla then farted after eating several times his own weight in Baked Beans, which caused me to deficate in my underwear, leaving me slightly smelly and requiring several showers.

Chuck Norris then round house kicked me to the face, but luckily I survived cos Karl Kennedy came to the rescue in the nick of time. As I walked home, I found a corner shop selling exotic plants, one of which was fantastic looking called Symore 2... I had to look, but it swallowed me! Luckily Harry Potter flew past... but because he's a little shit who no one really likes, the flower spat me out and ate him instead.

I then rode the hasslehoff back to Bikini Bottom and played with my friend Patrick, whom was eaten by a killer Anaconda, and was chased by Jennifer Lopez... who died from a chronic case of Bad Acting. A tall clown called Ronald then pulled me out of the sea... and gave me heart disease with his fattening self.

A guy called Doc then showed up and took me to the future, where I saw the world had been taken over by Cylon... so I clapped my red shoes three times and was home...

But Jena was there.... so I cried.

That is all.

So.. because all that happened to me, I think Great Father Wintermas should pay me a visit!

Heya.

Thanks for all the entries!

I should probably get the opinions of the other guild leaders before announcing the winners -- and as it's just been the new year, it might take a while to track them down :)

I'll work on them tonight and tomorrow, and then announce the winners ASAP!

-D

Post by: delling on January 03, 2008, 02:44:12 pm
Alright! The winners for this one...

I'll do it in reverse order.

Third place was decided by a 'random roll' because we had a lot of entries which were, we felt... all equally shit. I couldn't decide on a fair way to pick a third place, so a roll it was!

3rd Place: Exzema - despite his disgusting name, obviously it was about time you won a prize, even if it was just from Great Father Winter because you've been a Good Little Boy...

2nd Place: Krellion - for a fine piece of literature that may one day win some kind of award for 'most touching short story'...

1st Place: Zania - !! for a story that isn't really complete, but a nice insight into what it's all about in Iron Edge... community and companionship before lewts...! And all that shit.

--

Thanks for all the entries, guys :) Sorry to the people that didn't win! Maybe the dice roll will favour you in the future...!

Contact Delling in-game sometime during an evening to sort out your prizes.
