Checkers & Sliders, Christmas Drawing Contest

Hey Chobots,

If you've read my last post, I assured you more contests will come to give you all the opportunity to win fabulous prizes as well as being mentioned in a blog post! The Checkers and Chopajev (Sliders) contest starts today, which the scoreboards have already opened for. You've been given until the 12th of December to earn the highest amount of points and rank in top three. Get playing and join in on the competition by playing with your friends at the Academy!

If you're not up for participating in an in-game type of competition, we've also decided to open up a Christmas themed designing contest. Rather than handing you one standard festive themed template, you have two options: A Christmas tree and a bauble! The templates are very simple, so it's up to you to make them exciting!

Follow the certain rules below to guide you: 

•     It has to have some relation to Christmas/the festive season or winter. (You can relate it to Chobots, but it isn't compulsory)
•     You are not limited in terms of creating your artwork! That's right, you can create your piece of art however you like whether that be through a different software, or simply printing out the template as a colouring page and drawing it on by hand. Here are some suggestions of ways to edit your chosen template: printing the template out and drawing, programs or software platforms for creating graphics like Adobe Flash or Photoshop are acceptable too. There are many options so if you find an idea that works best for you, go with it!
•     Try to be as creative as possible with your design(s). The more creative, the better!
•     You may submit more than one entry; feel like you would like to try designing both? Go ahead! Multiple submissions are encouraged!
•     Please upload it to tinypic.com or imgur.com and provide us with the link so that we can view the masterpieces you've created

Although it seems difficult, try and make your work the most original. Don't stick to the typical Christmas tree decoration designs, test out designs that are unusual! This contest ends on the 19th of December and the in-game competition ends on the 12th, so for those who are planning to do both have their work cut out for them! But remember: cheating, plagiarism/theft is forbidden. Please report to support@chotopia.us with proof attached, if you do find any Chobots acting suspiciously. 

Have fun, 

Katic
