Hi folks, the Sydney $10k event is just around the corner and we want as much coverage of the event as possible.
In an effort to further that goal, we're giving away a box of VS in a $10K tournament report writing competition.
Second prize gets 8 boosters!
Here's what you need to do
1) Attend the $10K event (bad luck to those who can't!)
2) Write a report about something related to the event. This could be your personal experience, the general aspect, a comprehensive coverage - really it's up to you. If you want to pilot a Mojo deck to your ultimate demise and make it into a "public interest" piece - well that's fine too
3) Submit said report to contact@vsparadise.com by the 30th of September
We'll judge the entries and the winner will be sent a box of VS for their efforts.
So put on your thinking caps - entries will be judged by creativity, content, and originality
This compeititon is open to VSParadise members including staff,
And of course, thanks goes to UDE for their continued support!

Defn worth the effort of compiling a report.

So if I win ... can I sell my exclusive story to VSParadise for a price to be discussed
*cough*Box of WoS*cough*
I'll give you the story of the team behind the plan behind the deck.
Right down to how many small furry animals suffered during testing.
OK None. We dont believe in Animal testing. But the rest of story will be yours!

Hmm...so how come there is the line stating that its open to VS Paradise staff only..?

You read it wrong.
That line (the 2nd last one) just means that it's okay for staff to enter the competition, not that it's only open to staff members.

Just a reminder to all those who attended this weekends festivities - shoot us over a report on some aspect of the event and get yourself into the competition!
ssteven
Sep 14 2004, 10:43 AM
Also - the report can be about any aspect of the weekend, not necessarily just a $10k event report - if you want to write about the weekend in general, the 1st Ed Marvel draft, the PCQ, judging, etc - we're open to any type

Thanks.
Yeah, have a go guys.
I think Sam proved that you can write a fine report without getting bogged down in details.
Sometimes the stories of what's happening beyond the playing table make great reads.

What the hell is going on. I came 3rd?????????? I got beaten by a man who has a Seck fixation and a over the hill has been who thinks Joker is the best 7 drop in the game (no offence Otto). I demand a recount, I demand justice, I demand vengenace!!!!!
