SwordStaker Wrote:You won't be disqualified if you have a ban history right? I was falsely banned a long time ago and was never appealed/ignored when I tried to get myself back on rankings and have the history wiped.=/

Girasol Wrote:The contest rules officially state that you cannot have a ban history. But I am going to guess no one is going to care about a 30 day autoban from 2010 if it's something like that. They are looking for serious or repeated abuse.

ShinkuDragon Wrote:hmm, so we could pretty much submit a pure-text idea?

as for the monsters/NPC, they don't have to be already-existing ones, right?

Alloy Wrote:OOOH... I have some ideas that I'd want to share and...

Wait, what is that... USA only? Dammit then. Nothing to do here I guess. Europeans are usually out of the fun I guess.

Girasol Wrote:You don't have to include images. It would be nice if you did if you are trying to explain something that may need a real life reference (for example...say you want to make a chinchilla-like monster, then you would attach an image of a chinchilla for reference - even if the monster itself would not be a chinchilla exactly).

But yea, pure-text is fine if you are a very descriptive writer.

You can using existing monsters/NPCs or design new ones.



Sorry, EU has some very strict laws regarding contests.
