Greetings MechWarriors,

In the darkness of twilight, they say the Fan Creations sub-forum is haunted.
It's time to go bump in the night, and show how Mechs can be undead!

Zombie Centurions, Phranken Steiners, and Dire WereWolves are just the beginning...
We're hosting our second annual Halloween Contest, with a new batch of even better prizes to give out!

Whether you want to create a painting, a photoshop, a stencil, a costume, a recording, a video, or even a scary Atlas cake: 
Let the creative and the creepy come out in this contest! For reference, here are last year's winners.

The contest begins: 20th of October 2014 at 5PM PDT / 8PM EDT / 12AM UTC
The contest ends: 3rd of November 2014 at 5PM PST / 8PM EST / 1AM UTC

Winners will be selected by a panel of PGI staff, with a single prize given out in the form of a Community's Choice. 
To compete:
  • You must have a valid forum account, in good standing.
  • You can get your account for free by registering now and completing your first 25 matches in-game.
  • Any player capable may enter.
  • If you win, you must pass a skill-testing question to claim your prize.
Prizes:

Selection:
  • The 1st through 5th choices will be decided by a panel of Piranha Games Staff based on artistic creativity as well as cultural or comedic value.
    • Since this is a Halloween contest, cultural value would be defined by how well it mixes both elements of Halloween and MWO\BT
  • Community Choice will be decided by number of Post likes on an entry.
    • We will not consider votes that we find to be illegitimate through duplicate accounts, scripts, and so forth.
  • Skill-testing questions will include an arithmetic exercise including four mathematical operations.
  • This is a creative skill-based competition where your chances of winning are based on the results of your effort and talents in the medium of your choosing, the number of views this thread receives, and the total number of valid participants at the end of the competition.
    • Your best way to improve your chances of winning the Community Choice is to share your entry with others and encourage them to vote.
  • There is no regional allocation to prizes or early-bird prizes.
  • No purchase required.
