Cat · 2013-11-22T14:41:02Z

Happy Thanksgiving, America! Everyone, let's get ready for…Christmas!!! I wanted to get these contests up well in advance because we have an extra one going for the month of December - and it requires EFFORT. Keep your beer drinking pants on, there are still the usual lotteries. :) ART CONTEST Submit your original artwork and be entered into the lottery and the competition! Here’s some important bits: - Artwork should be gaming related, and in the spirit of the holidays/season - Artwork must be original. - Submit your artwork in the comments below or via PM to me, Cat, via YouTube or image. Included in the video or image should be your N4G username (and not photoshopped on top, we’re using this to save time weeding out cheating cheaters from cheatertown) - While multiple works are accepted from one user, each work is considered its own submission unless presented as a coherent series with one work identified as representative of the whole - If you submit artwork that is not yours you’re DQed…from all 2014 contests. And you have to give cgoodno all your presents. Cheating scoundrels cover S&H. - Site TOU apply THE LOTTERY: Three winners will be chosen at random from eligible artsy entrants, and each will receive a $50 Amazon gift card! THREE WINNERS - $50 Amazon card each THE CHOSEN ONES: Three winners will be chosen based on which we like best. :) Things like creativity and execution will be strongly considered. THREE WINNERS - $75 Amazon card each (I'm getting a couple questions that usually end with "because I'm not good at drawing" - this isn't a drawing contest, it's an art contest, so it's not limited to drawing or painting, pencil or paint! Digital mediums, sculpture, so on accepted :)) COMMENT LOTTERY: Each comment you make on N4G during December = 1 entry. Comment 25 times? 25 entries. 100? 100 entries. You get the idea? Yeah, you do! (Hey, this includes Forum posts!) DQ if you pick up a restriction during the contest period, and comments with negative labels (Trolling, Off Topic, etc.) don't count. Prize: 4 winners, a $50 Amazon Gift Card each! BEST USER BLOG: You must post a User Blog in the month of December! More than that…it should fit the season! In December we’ll be looking for the best blogs about Christmas gaming, wintry themed gaming experiences, your favorite holiday gaming memory, that sort of thing. The top 5 User Blogs as voted by cgoodno and me win! There's no limit to how many wonderful User Blogs you can write and enter, anything you author here on N4G during the month of December that fits contest criteria will be eligible. Prize: 5 winners, a $50 Amazon Gift Card each! CONTRIBUTOR CONTEST: Submit news and get a top News ranking in December and you can win up to $100!
