December 24 Announcement of the winners.

The Sonic Club is finally hosting its first contest! Obviously this is announced fairly early, but that's so that you guys can have as much time as you need to put your presentations together.

How to enter

1. Make an entry (duh )
2. Upload it to you account
3. Use keywords like "Sonic Club Christmas Contest" so people can do searches and find them
4. Drop a comment on this image with a link to you entry

We will be storing links to the entries in the description of this image (below) with the Deviant name, title, and link to the image. If the devpacks magically come back sometime during the contest, we'll make one especially for the contest so that they'll be easier to browse and keep track of.

Rules

1. You MUST be a Sonic Club member to participate; if you're not, and you'd like to be, simply drop a note to the club account requesting to join and we'll add you in as soon as possible.
2. Your entry must have the Christmas theme, and Sonic. (Feel free however to add your own Sonic characters in there as well, as long as Sonic is there, it's acceptable)
3. We're gonna try to avoid all shounen-ai yaoi hentai etc. There's nothing wrong with it at all, but there are some members that may find it offensive and we have to respect that.
4. Entries must be cast in by December 14th
5. Do your best and have fun

Judging

Judging will be organized in a vote, each club member is allowed two votes, but they may not vote on their own entry. A note will be sent out December 14 announcing that we will begin collecting notes, any votes cast in before December 14 or after December 24 will not be counted. Winners will be announced Christmas Eve.

Prizes

We're now setting up a ring system. After this contest we will be having smaller contests of sorts frequently. Rings will be awarded for entering, and even more for the people who win, get 100 rings and chose between BoltStryke and Neo I'keia to draw a Sonic related picture for you (no more than 2 characters) including your own Sonic characters! The top 10 ring holders will be set in the journal. Top five with their icons, and second top five with their devnames in order of who has the most. For this contest we'll be giving out a LOT of rings.

First place: 100 rings! The first place winner will have enough rings to get a picture drawn for them
Second: 50 rings
Third: 30 rings
Fourth: 20 rings
Fifth: 10 rings

But EVERYONE WHO ENTERS Will get 2 rings no matter what, besides the first 5 places (in other words the first place winner will get 100 and not 102)
Note: Everyone who is not listed in the journal will be listed in an html page underneath so you won't be forgotten.
