    Default The Return of the Great Pumpkin Carving Contest!! NOW WITH RULES & PUMPKINS!

    Hey! Listen!

    It's that time again! We (us mods/admins) LOVE the carved Pumpkins. It just gets us in the mood for all the seasonal festivities the rest of the year. So what we'd like to see from YOU is your best works. The rules are simple and there will be voting by the people of DP to decide the winner, and sed winner will recieve a $25 buck Gift Certificate to GameStop.

    I know time is short, but good carvers havn't cracked out their pumpkins yet, because they'd already be going bad.

    **THE RULES**

    * Everyone is elligible (One Entry per name) * Last year we had some one time joiners that were here 'for the prize'. Those were DQ'd because its not fair, that is again in effect with this contest. To be eligible, you need to have been a member of the forums now. If your join date is after 10/21 its no good this year. Sorry to be that way, but we're a community and we don't appreciate those that are here for the contest goodz and not willing to add to out witty and intelligent banter on all things gaming.

    * We're a Video Game based forum, lets make these Video Game Themed.

    * This Pumpkin must be carved by your hand.

    * For it to be entered into the contest, a pic will be needed, this pic will also need your username included in the picture on a card so we know its not being lifted from somewhere.

    * Once carved and your picture (with forum handle) has been taken it needs to be uploaded somewhere (personal webspace, photobucket, flikr ect) and then posted here in THIS THREAD. If you can't figure that out, I will help you, PM me for help.

    * Pumpkins must be posted in here by MIDNIGHT on 10/30. Once its Halloween (12:01 AM 10/31) submittals are over. Anything posted afterwords will not be accepted. All times are based on MY time zone, Pacific Standard Time.

    * Voting will begin Monday (11/2) and go until Thursday (11/5) evening due to me being out of town for a wedding, so I won't have the time to start the voting until I get home monday. The voting will happen in a separate thread and further voting details will be in the voting thread.


    Pumpkin On!

    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

    I am definitely entering this... Will a multi-pumpkin display be allowed?

    Sure, but each poster will only get one entry. If it takes 4 pumpkins to tell a story, so be it!

    First rule of "Great Pumpkin Carving Contest" Don't talk about Great Pumpkin Carving Contest.


    <edit> My calendar shows that October is almost over, is this contest ever going to kick off? </edit>
