For those of you that missed the mention, I have a Celestial Steed loot key to award to one lucky winner. Thanks to lawman30’s creative input, I’ve settled upon an idea for the contest. It is to be a creative writing essay about how you tamed the mount.
Yes… tamed. This is a hunter-exclusive competition. You don’t necessarily need to have an 80 hunter to enter, but if you win, you’d better at least have a level 20 hunter that can saddle up on this mount for a screenshot.
Celestial Steed Contest Rules
- Write a short story about your adventures encountering, then taming this beautiful mount. Send the story here.
- Stories should be somewhere in the neighborhood of 1,500 to 3,000 words.
- Proper grammar, spelling and punctuation are a huge plus. The winning submission will be published on here for thousands to read, so try to have it post-ready.
- Screenshots helping to paint the story are another huge plus.
- Get the story and screenshots to me by May 20th at 12 am. You have one week.
- The winner of the contest is to submit an additional screenshot once they’ve redeemed their prize, with their hunter mounted on the steed.
- Contest is open to players on US servers only. Sorry EU peeps. 🙁
As I mentioned in the contest rules, after the winner has redeemed their mount, they are to send me one final screenshot or two with them poised atop their new winged horsey. Once I receive those, I will prepare and then publish the story for all to see. Should be fun. 😀
Good luck to all those who enter!
Contact me if you have any questions.
Submitted my entry, hope you enjoy. Good luck to all the others, this was awesome to write.
Huu
Right on Huugg, I just got it in my inbox! I can’t wait to start diving in and reading these stories. 🙂
I sent mine last night and had an absolute nightmare trying to attache files and get it out. Did you get it or do I need to try again? Thanks, bro.
I got it lawman!
Sweet! I had a harder time trying to send the email than I did actually writing the story. =P Ah well…we all have our own areas of expertise, i guess.
GL to all who took advantage of this. I hope we at least gave Gar enough stuff to read that he can sit down with a stack of stories, a cold brew and tell the wife “what….it’s work.” =P
That’s right… “quit peerin’ over my shoulda… can’t you see I’m workin’ here..?! Go make yourself useful and grab me a brew..” I got a long night ahead o’ me of readin’ RP fantasy and doing in-game ‘R&D’…”
She’d so smack me if she saw this. 😆
Alright sent! I went a bit over, couldn’t help myself 🙂
Got it Kelwina! Looking forward to reading it. 🙂
Finishing up mine now, hoping to send it in tonight!
Excellent!
There you go bud. I sent mine. Hehe.
Got it Necras. Thanks and good luck!
Thanks, but I sent it in because well I was bored.. I doubt it’ll win.. but why not give it a go right?
but i’m from tw server 🙁
I’m sorry traveler. Unfortunately, there’s nothing I can do to accommodate anyone outside of a US account. 🙁 I’d like to be able to offer the prizes to anyone, but Blizz won’t let me.
Submission in the works….hoping for the prize sweep! =P
You can do eeet! Go lawman, go!
Working on mine right now 🙂
Awesome! 😀
