Hi there BB_Katealyst!

Is there a size requirement for the postcard? Something along the lines of no bigger than what? 6x9? 6x11? Anything bigger than that I'd worry about getting mauled in the mail. Also, you'd have to pay flat package rates if you get bigger than a piece of paper.

Thanks!

Did you get my 40' x 80' postcard on a piece of billboard yet? It's coming via a FreightLiner pulled flatbed. Perhaps a PeterBuilt.

Im having a plane fly by with my postcard attached to the back of it. You'll see it.

What exactly do you mean by The Settlers Online related ............... Should I draw a picture of a knight standing next to a dead dragon with a reeking pile of excrement behind it and caption it "Thinking of you."?

Ya just got mine that I created in the mail...will be mailing it off tomorrow :) (I better win!! )

What about Custom made E-Cards saved as a Image?

Yeah, can these be sent electronically too?

I would prefer these not be sent electronically as it wasn't originally stated in the rules.

So far I have:

Dropping it in the mail first thing in the morning!

I still don't get it, you really need to explain the rules more clearly.
What exactly is a "Settlers Online related postcard"?
A screenshot of my island printed on a piece of photopaper with a stamp and your address on it?
Upon which criteria will it be judged?
The biggest? The dumbest? The funniest? The best print quality?
And no electronic entries?
Seriously?

Where do you see the postcards to vote on them? i will vote for my guild mate but i still wanna see how stouid the other were

They will be posted once the deadline to receive them has been met, next Tuesday/Wednesday I expect to see them up

I don't quite understand who the "TSO community team" is.

"CHOOSING WINNERS
• 3 winners who send TSO related postcards will win 5,000 Gems. These winners will be selected by the TSO community team
• 3 other winners will be selected at random to win 1,000 Gems."

The Settlers Online related postcard can be a screenshot of the game, a drawing of the game, anything TSO related really. So, for example if you send a postcard from the grand canyon it will be placed into the random drawing but will not win the TSO related prize.

The Community team will take all points into consideration. I would think quality reigns supreme with the other categories having equal weight.

Nope, no electronic entries. We may have another contest in the future where we will have electronic entries. This event was originally started as a worldwide event by Germany and we kept their rules.

hmm sounds cool

BB_Katealyst-

You just said that it could be completely up to you, so that messes up your latest Post...

Fix the darn bugggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!

sadly enough i'm from europe so probably cost more to send the postcard than to buy gems directly =(
anybody got obama's number so i can tell him i've been discriminated

It's a socialist conspiracy to drive otherwise active internet users away from personal development by means of the the internet in an attempt to support a govenment funded agency to revive an archaic form of imformation tranfer....


DISCUSS.

(wow, I just realized how meaningless my life is without global 1. Disregard this message. I'm gonna go learn how to speak Japanese.)
