A Roleplaying Competition for Commercial Vessels - Xoria - 05-17-2008
Does it seem like it will take forever to reach that new transport that you've been dreaming about?
The winner of this contest will receive a new account containing the Transport of their choice, already outfitted, and a Lawful Commercially Tagged / ID'd (up to a 120 Million credit value), and I'll even throw in a load of cargo and name the ship according to your choice!
Terms and Conditions :
1. Entries in this competition will be judged as follows : you must submit a screenshot demonstrating your lawful commercial / corporate roleplaying. The best "snapshot" of roleplaying as a Trader wins. The roleplaying must consist of at least 2 lines of text.
2. The text must have been transmitted over system wide comms.
3. The screenshots must display ZERO "out of character" statements from the competitor's character (make sure that you state who your character is). OOC from other players will not count against you because it is not in your control.
4. If it comes down to a "tie", characters who are commercial faction Tagged and ID'd will be given priority over those that are generic Traders without a commercial Tag. So its a good idea to submit a screenshot of your faction specific commercial Tag and ID also (for example, Republican Shipping or BOWEX).
5. Contestants must have a join date on their forum account between April 16 and May 31, 2008. (Because this is a contest for rookies). No exceptions.
6. Only statements contained in posted screenshots are valid entries. Typed text on the forum to fill in what the screenshots do not show is inadmissable.
7. Entries will be judged by myself, and possibly by the general public courtesy of Angelfire Polling, Inc.
8. Contestants may submit up to 2 entries, and may substitute a later entry in the place of a previous entry by editing their prior post. So you can make many entries, but only two of them will be eligible.
9. All entries must be submitted by 11:59 PM GMT on June 7.
10. "Veterans" who are not eligible for this contest are encouraged to submit snapshots of good commercial roleplaying as examples for the contestants.
11. Anyone wishing to donate funds to help pay for the grand prize may make a contribution to [The_Angels]Xoria.
12. I reserve the right to extend the contest if I decide that insufficient entries have been submitted, or to decline to award a prize if none of the entries are sufficiently good.
So, submit your best roleplaying as a Captain of Commerce, and you may soon be trading in style!

I went a bit overboard and had a friend help me do an entire journey, what is the limit on screenshots? Can I submit a slideshow?
Seth
EDIT: ok, here is my entry:

Man that took a long time...I can't promise that the slideshow is exactly the same as the pictures...when I made it I was sure that there were 20 pictures, not 21...Sorry if i've submitted to many. I had to ask a Hacker to pirate me...man, was he surprised.
Thanks for creating the contest!

The contest has been extended until June 7, and now is open to anyone with a forum account created between April 16 and May 31.
If you see anyone on the server who is asking for help, tell them about this contest!!!!!
A Roleplaying Competition for Commercial Vessels - Seth Karlo - 06-01-2008
I will spread the word.
EDIT: WHAT?!?! None of them entered?!?!
I told about a DOZEN people about this...:angry::wacko::(
Does this mean the contest will be canceled?:unsure:
EDIT2: Xoria, is the contest cancelled? Or extended again?

I don't see any point in shelling out 120 million credits to a "winner" based on two entries, so I will offer 20 million credits to both of the entrants, and this contest is closed.
Both entrants, please either post all of your characters here so that I can keep an eye out for you, or send me a PM with them.
