Costume CoN+est 2008
By CaptainSeagull. Friday, 19. September 2008, 18:52:19
N+ is going to have our second Costume CoN+est! Last year was awesome, but because it was our first one we had a problem with getting Opera to deliver the prizes they promised. 
GO HERE for last years entries, and you can check out the winners circle IN HERE
This year, we are going to sidestep Opera entirely and deliver you the prizes ourselves! We also promise you won't have to wait for the mail either! We are letting you guys know NOW that there will be a contest because it could take a little while to get a costume together. Trust me, I know. The sooner you start on your costume the better it can become - most of the time. It certainly makes it more affordable, and gives you plenty of time for detail detail detail. Read more for all the details on prizes, the rules, and disclaimer...
Rule Updates Will be in green and Bold...
Prizes- 1st Place - 2000 Wii point download
- 2nd Place - 1500 Wii point download
- 3rd Place - 500 Wii point download
Winners will have one week after we contact them with a private message to claim their prize and provide us with their Wii friend code. Failure to do so on time will result in the prizes going to another entrant. New winner will have one week after contact, etc... If you do not have a Wii but plan on getting one before the end of the year we will hold on to your prizes until January 1, 2009 - the same rule applies to simply being connected online with your Wii. After January 1st, 2009 the prizes will be ours to keep. Any extra points that remain after you select which games to recieve as your gift will also remain ours, simply because we cannot SEND you points, we can only send Wii Ware or VC games - sorry
