Dungeons & Dragons Online contest: Send in your game guides
Who says it doesn’t pay to go out of your way to help your fellow MMO gamer? Quarion over at the Dungeons and Dragons Online forums is announcing an upcoming game contest, which invites players to send in their best-written DDO guides.
Submitted guides will be judged by a combination of the DDO community and games developers, with criteria ranging from the guide’s usefulness, to its readability, completeness, and accuracy. Here’s a listing of some the contest’s first place booty:
- 1 Deluxe leather bound copy of The Players Handbook v3.5
- One 60 day game card
- Guide will be listed in the Compendium
- Forum Title: “Scholar of Adventure”
That’s just a sampler of what you can expect if you win – there are also prizes for second, third, and honorary place winners. Before you get cracking, however, you may want to read over some of the event’s rules:
- To enter, post your guide in the Game Guides Forum, AND email your submission and the link to your post to [email protected]
- Submissions must be original creations. Any submissions that are found to be copies or recreations or derivatives of existing works (related to Dungeons and Dragons or otherwise) will not be considered in the final judging.
- Submissions must include the contestant’s name, email address, and primary forum name and a link to the posted entry on the forums.
- This contest is open to all legal U.S. residents age 18 or older, regular forum membership rules apply.
- This contest begins on Monday, September 24th, 2007 at 12:00am EST. Submissions will be accepted until Sunday September 30th, at 11:59pm EST.
The initial nominations for DDO‘s game guide competition will begin on Monday, October 1, and will end on Sunday, October 7. The 10 winning entries from this initial polling will then move on to the final polls on Monday, October 8. Judging will begin on Thursday, October 11, with the winners getting announced on Monday, October 15.
