Shards Preview Month Contest

What’s this “Alara” business I keep hearing about? “Alara?” What is that, some fantasy mumbo-jumbo? I don’t know about you, but I’m looking forward to the next set “Shards,” the newest set with the one word name.

“Alara was whole once. But that was milennia ago. Where once there was a plane, now there are five: the Shards. The plane of Alara was a world rich with mana, a world in balance… until the Sundering. In a cataclysm of unimaginable proportions, Alara was rent asunder into five saparate worlds, each a refraction of the others.” – Nizzerds of the Coast

Ugh! What can we do in order to fix this trainwreck of nerdiness and transform it into a train-creation of awesomeness? The only sufficient response is an AMAZING HUMOROUS CONTENT SUBMISSION CONTEST.

I literally hear you asking, “How will this contest work?” Every piece of Officially Acknowledged Content you create during August and September counts toward your standing in the contest, as long as at least one of those pieces of content is a Shards-related humor article. When this time period ends, everyone will vote for which person deserves to win the contest based on the quantity and/or quality of his or her submissions over the course of the submission period. One fantastic article could win it. A dozen “pretty funny” items could win it. Even non-funny content, like tournament reports and strategy articles, can contribute to your victory. It’s up to the plebes!

The person who wins first place in the vote wins an 18 Shards booster packs, which constitutes 0.5 times (!!) a box! Second place wins 9 Shards booster packs. Third place wins 6 Shards booster packs. Fourth place wins 3 Shards booster packs. These prizes have been made possible by donations from our benefactors, an elite group, but not elite to the point of exclusivity!

So what’s the hold-up, jabroni? I’ve called your boss — he/she says you can put off your tasks for as long as it takes.

Shadowmoor Preview Month Contest

The Aurora has plunged Lorwyn into eternal night, transforming the once-idyllic plane into the eerie world of Shadowmoor. The gloom has transformed its denizens, too — creatures of fable have become monsters from dark fairytales. Races and characters introduced in Lorwyn are back, but with twisted allegiances and new powers.

Shut up! We’ve got no time for such nonsense, “Wizards of the Coast”. That’s because this is Shadowmoor Preview Month, and it would be inappropriate for us here at Good Gamery to let such a thing pass by without acknowledging it with an AMAZING HUMOROUS CONTENT SUBMISSION CONTEST.

I literally hear you asking, “How will this contest work?” Every piece of Officially Acknowledged Content you create during April counts toward your standing in the contest, as long as one of those pieces of content is a Shadowmoor-related humor article. When April ends, everyone will vote for which person deserves to win the contest based on the quantity and/or quality of his or her submissions over the course of the month. One fantastic article could win it. A dozen “pretty funny” items could win it. Even non-funny content, like tournament reports and strategy articles, can contribute to your victory. It’s up to the plebes!

The person who wins first place in the vote wins an entire box of Shadowmoor booster packs. Second place wins 18 Shadowmoor booster packs. Third place wins 9 Shadowmoor booster packs. Fourth place wins 3 Shadowmoor booster packs. These prizes have been donated by the MT2 New Contest Crew — thanks guys!

So what are you waiting for? Your mommy to nag you? Shut up! We’ve got no time for such nonsense. Get that content created, because gobs of free Magic cards are at stake, jabroni!
