Christmas Writers' Contest

Day 1,491, 13:44 • Published in New Zealand USA

• by Fionia

Last year, I ran a Christmas Carol contest. I can't find the article right now, but it seems about the right time to do that contest again.

Topic:

This week, you get a choice of two topics!

1) Write a Christmas carol (like Jingle Bells, Deck the Halls, etc) with lyrics that are relevant to eRep.

2) Write a Christmas story (like It's a Wonderful Life, A Christmas Carol (the Dickens story), etc), that's relevant to eRep.

Rules:

1. Your article must be on one of the topics above.
2. Your article must contain a link to this article.
3. You must leave your article link in the comments here.
4. Entries have to be submitted by 23:59 on day 1494. The winners will be announced by 21:00 on day 1495.
5. If you were one of the winners of the last contest, you cannot win again. You may enter, but if you get the highest votes for one of the categories, your prize will be automatically given to the first runner-up.

Prizes

There are four categories this time, and the prize for each will be 10 Q6 tanks instead of the usual gold prize.

1. The Platinum Record (for the highest voted carol)

2. The Advertiser (for the highest voted story article)

3. My Choice 1 (for the most interesting and/or funniest carol)

4. My Choice 2 (for the most interesting and/or funniest story)

Have fun writing, my friends!

The Christmas Carol contest last year was how I met Fionia! Here's my entry from last year, you have to remember the Frost Revolution/Counter Revolution or it won't make sense. xD This is too funny.

Fi, there's a link to that contest of yours in my entry: http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/my-christmas-carol-1601599/1/20
