Event Details:

The idea of this event is pretty simple. You are competing in basic 'sudden death knockout' tournament style matches divided into successive rounds, where the winner of each match advances to the next round of the competition. Each round will be assigned a "theme" to what the image should surround, this is just to provide a direction, use your own imaginations on how you would like to represent this theme as you like. As the rounds progress, the number of competitors and fixtures decreases, and the final round consists of just one fixture, the winner of which is the overall champion.

The entries progress through public voting. Voting will take place on the forums - The popular vote will account for 60% of the final decision, so even if you're not entering, you're still needed as every vote counts! A board of carefully selected judges (You might be supprised!) will contribute the final 40%.

To participate, entries may be submitted via Forum PM. While entering, please provide an easy method of contact along with a preliminary example of your work, so we are aware of what you are capable of. Entry requires members to have either a Classic, VIP or Gold account, and they must be registered to the Graal Forums.

A total of (3) qualified contestants will receive prizes. See listing below for exact prizes and their descriptions. The (3) Prize Winners' submissions in association with the winners' names will be displayed on the official web site (http://www.graalonline.com) as well as here.

Please be sure to check this thread from time to time as the contest progress will be updated here.


Event Guidelines:
  • Only one entry per person is permitted.
  • Submissions must be original and complete.
  • No images that are plagiarized, inappropriate, or infringe any copyright or trademark.
  • There is no colour limit, but don't be too fanciful.
  • No blurring tools, anti-aliasing tools, burning tools, and/or dodging tools.
  • Keep it pixel by pixel.
  • Please submit in .GIF or .PNG format.

Any Submission material violating above set rules will be disqualified from the contest without further consideration. Contestants are also responsible for compliance with Graal Online rules where applicable.


Prizes:



Prizes are not transferable or exchangeable and cannot be taken as cash.
The organisers reserve the right to alter the prizes due to circumstances beyond their control.



Contest Entry Date: 13th February - 24th February (CLOSED)
Contest Starting Date: 25th February

- Good luck!

Awesome. I'm already registered right?

edit: Also I hope this doesn't just turn into a popularity contest where people vote on someone solely because they are friends with them or because they got bribed, or whatever.

Also... are you going to try to prevent the same person from voting multiple times on different accounts? Because technically if someone was really wanting to win they could get like 30 accounts and that's 30 extra votes for them. =P

Theres no way to tell if thats happening, but I guess if the judges see that people are voting for him and its like the same IP or w/e, They'll disqualify him.
