Let's play a game. If you win, you might just get some representation in DoE!

I added clarification to the rules on the note of the 'bonus points' because it appears that people were misinterpreting the rule to imply that you would actually score higher on the contest judging.

Bonus point as "cool factor"?

I'm changing mine to something else then. :P

Hey Dusk, would you be terribly offended if I did a modified version of my contest 2 hero? He had two skills that worked well together, but his invisibility (a requirement for that contest) was pretty bad. I think I could mod him to fit for this one, but if you'd rather see something completely new I could do that too.

Wasn't that oppum popus or something retarded along those lines? Which resulted into tristan?

If he's different enough, that's fine. I want to see new ideas for this contest, though, so don't just carbon copy his name/title and the skills you like, because that's against the rules.

No.

I would like to remind everyone of what is and what isn't a summon. A summon is a created entity that can act on its own and be interacted with tangibly by other players. If your submission includes a type of spell that creates something that does not fit that description of summon, you run the risk of being disqualified.

Examples:
Caliga's Haunt is not a summon.
Stille's wards are summons.
Dahaka's first skill with the glowy beacon is not a summon.
Myriad's innate skeletons are summons.

Does anyone actually need another 20 days for this contest? Now that I think about it, a month is a very long time and I'd like to implement the winning hero sooner rather than later. (This lets me update DoE sooner)

I could definitely use the weekend, but twenty days does seem excessive.

Yeah, I'm pretty much done myself.

I think maybe until next Friday would be a good amount of time. Ending it right after this weekend is a bit sudden for people who have waited to post a hero until now or in the near future. I do agree, though, that 20 days is a bit unnecessary.

I most definitely would like at least another week, perhaps by next Friday. I've been swamping a bit with travels and homework.

I was thinking a week. Ending it next Friday. Is that enough time?

So, there are only two people who mentioned to me that they wanted to enter and have not yet. Heart/Fled are you two going to submit heroes and if so, can they be submitted today? I'd like to start judging tomorrow morning. (This weekend is going to probably be my only chance to actually do this)
