This must be that Masteria expansion Maybe it isn't... Who knows.

[Locked]

Oh this again.

What happened to the last one? Did they ever announce winners?

[Girasol]

By "considered", we mean, we're going to try our best to use what we can, but our legal team says we cannot make promises. So. No promises. :P

We will try to make this part of the Masteria update, which was pushed back to fall. But no promises... (haha)

And the other contest was announced...there was something like 3,000 entries. It was ridiculous. Which was why we restricted this to one week. This one will have a much quicker turn-around.

[SwordStaker]

I will try this again. Last time my Masteria PQ wasn't accepted =/ Maybe it will this time. Here's a little question for the community though. Give this post pinapples if I should write it for 200+ or Pomegranates if I should write it for a lower level(nothing lower then 100+)

You won't be disqualified if you have a ban history right? I was falsely banned a long time ago and was never appealed/ignored when I tried to get myself back on rankings and have the history wiped.=/

The contest rules officially state that you cannot have a ban history. But I am going to guess no one is going to care about a 30 day autoban from 2010 if it's something like that. They are looking for serious or repeated abuse.

I think it's even from like 2009 lol. It's from a longggggg time ago when Tarumacis were one of the best training areas and it was only 30 days but I got them to shorten it. Just can't get myself back on rankings.

hmm, so we could pretty much submit a pure-text idea?

as for the monsters/NPC, they don't have to be already-existing ones, right?

[Alloy]

OOOH... I have some ideas that I'd want to share and...

Wait, what is that... USA only? Dammit then. Nothing to do here I guess. Europeans are usually out of the fun I guess.

You don't have to include images. It would be nice if you did if you are trying to explain something that may need a real life reference (for example...say you want to make a chinchilla-like monster, then you would attach an image of a chinchilla for reference - even if the monster itself would not be a chinchilla exactly).

But yea, pure-text is fine if you are a very descriptive writer. :)

You can using existing monsters/NPCs or design new ones.

Sorry, EU has some very strict laws regarding contests, and since it's not our primary service region, we just can't make it work. :(

But it's not USA only! It's USA, and Canada minus Quebec, Australia and New Zealand... :P

awwright, one last thing though, as my flag implies, i'm not from the U.S.A. (still from america) would that make me unable to participate, unable to just win the top prizes (aim for the top!), or it wouldn't be a problem?

if it's the first one, i'll have to hypnotize you into forgetting that question

@above: send me a link will ya? need to catch up on a certain part.

[Dark Zero]

I am from Peru and I had an expedition idea fo Masteria... nevermind... :/

If you're really passionate about your idea, you could always just get a friend to submit it.

[PirateIzzy]

Aw, if it was a Jett revamp idea, I'd sooo enter.

[Declaimed]

So, what becomes of CWKPQ then? Replaced?

[PirateIzzy]

Just no more alien invasions, please.

[Bladester]

This could be the only shot Maplers get at maybe seeing Versal or getting their fanfic ideas about Crimsonwood Keep canonized. Get to it!

[Phoenix]

QUEBEC! Why must we be so different T_T It's a bane for all contests haha.

Thats probably the idea.

I think I'll actually do some work on this event, seems fun enough, gives me a chance to flex game mechanic ideas, and Masteria lore is pretty much where I last left off when I left Maple a long time ago.
That said, I should probably catch up on this whole thing that happened with the aliens first now that I came back.
