We are trying to spread the word about Trench Wars to a new generation of players, trying to get the zone up to the high activity levels of years past. What we want to do is spread the word about the Trench Wars community through videos.
We are announcing a contest...
We want to see what kind of creative videos the Trench Wars players can come up with that will get thousands of views on YouTube. The videos can be about anything, BUT they must contain a reference to Trench Wars and the www.trenchwars.org web site address, at least at the very end of the video, and preferably in other places during the video.
Obviously, the more a video relates to Trench Wars, the better a chance it stands of being picked as our winner, but like I said, it can be about anything. Try to pick something that will appeal to the general public and has the potential to go viral. Some examples are the "Leave Britney Alone" or "Chocolate Rain" videos.
Why create a video? Because the best video submission wins a new Samsung 20 inch LCD Monitor!
Guidelines for video:
1. Create a YouTube video that attracts as many viewers as possible.
2. When you have created your video and added it to YouTube, leave a message in the "Video Contest!" Trench Wars forum thread informing us of the video.
3. Videos that make fun of other Trench Wars players without their permission will be disqualified. Besides, it wouldn't be funny to the general public.
4. No usage of photos from the gallery without player's permission.
5. At minimum, include a slide at the end directing people to www.trenchwars.org. Some examples:
a. For more insanity visit the player community on Trench Wars www.trenchwars.org
b. Make friends all over the world, then blow them away: www.trenchwars.org
You can incorporate Trench Wars information throughout the video as well.
6. In order to be eligible for the prize of a 20 inch LCD monitor, the video must receive a minimum of 5,000 views as recorded by YouTube before the deadline.
7. The deadline for a 5,000+ view video is October 31, 2009.
8. If more than one video reaches 5,000 views and meets all above criteria, Trench Wars staff will select the winning video based on a combination of originality/creativity, total page views, and best display of Trench Wars information.
9. We reserve the right to cancel this contest or end it early for any reason and at any time including but not limited to:
a. Not enough submissions.
b. All submissions poor quality.
c. No submissions gain 5,000 pageviews as recorded by YouTube.
d. Submissions do not properly display Trench Wars information.
10. We reserve the right to extend or reduce the deadline (or change required pageviews) as necessary based on quantity/quality of submissions.
Good Luck!
