OK all we now have a new contest idea courtesy of everyone’s favorite British Blaster Debt... I mean Firespray_uk. So here is your very simple rules from the mouth of Firespray_uk himself.
| QUOTE | Attention all Paragon Heroes. The time has come for you all to help with a real emergency situation that has arisen in Icon in Steel Canyon recently.
It appears that after countless costume changes over the course of getting to level 40, Firespray has actually run out of ideas for his 4th and final costume slot.
Yup, having made something like 60 costume changes to the previous 3 slots, Firespray_uk is now at a loss as to what to have as a final costume and has offered up this chance to all the members of the Gameamp CoH board.
The competition is this.
Design Firesprays 4th Costume.
Simple I hear you cry. Not so fast, there are a few rules that must be observed.
1 - it is a male bodytype, average build.
2 - does not have to have a cape or aura
3 - SENSIBLE ideas please, I'm really stuck for a good idea and I'm throwing this out to everyone to help.
4 - Screenshot can either use up one of your freebie slots in Icon or a brand new toon taken in outbreak. Front and back pics please, edit together if possible.
5 - Screenshot description must contain the following - section by section note of what body part and costume parts etc were used in the design. Eg, Head - Face 11, yellow hair (row 3 column 9) chest - tight top, patent leather etc etc etc as Firesprays gonna have to build it himself!
I know its hard work to have to do all this but here's the kicker. Once designed, Firespray_uk will transfer the costume as his 4th and final costume and has promised to make no changes to it.
The winner gets their design transferred to Firespray and earns themself a nice big fat 150 credability.
Two runners up will also be awarded 50 credability each and of course, everyone who enters will get the usual points for entering.
Note, Firespray will make the final decision hehehe
So, if you're interested in helping out, get them thinking caps on and design a fire/fire blaster and for once it's being open to the STAFFERS too.
|
The contest will run From March 1st until March 31st and the decision will be put out by April 4th. So evryone get out there and have fun making a costume that Firespray_uk would be proud to wear around Paragon City.

you submit the picture to the screenshot gallery for the contest, and the "Funny caption" should be the piece by piece description of the costume put together, so remember a pen and paper!!
After all I got to recreate it from whoever wins it!! And I think that Dark Side, Esprit, Brigadier and Gigawatt will all be keeping an eye on me in game so I dont change it!!
:o)
I'm looking forward to this guys!

It would help if you posted the 3 existing costumes in one screenshot so we can see just what theme it must fit into.

Costume 2 has been changed to be this one
And SG mode it looks like this, not that it's important
That's what it looks like at the moment. As for theme, he's a Fire Fire blaster. I'm stuck for ideas, it's up to you to submit what you want but remember I am giving this opportunity for a gameamper to design my 4th costume. I don't do wacky, I'm not too big on spikes but you enter whatever you think will look good.
At the end of the day, I'll choose the one I like and make it for myself and wear it with pride knowing that someone took a lot of time and effort to design sommat to help me out as I've gone through about 60 changes in Fires gametime career - yes I am an Icon whore...
So I hope these help give you an idea as to what I have got but all ya need to know is that hesa flying fire fire blaster and I cant think of a 4th cozzie I like.
Good luck everyone and any questions please ask

*Shameless bump*
TEN DAYS TO GO til I have to pick a winner for the Costume contest.
Anything goes, but remember it's gotta have the Firespray feel to it - heroic, fun, easy to use, look bloody faaaaabulous etc etc.
Fantastic entries so far, but there are a lot more members than entries and what does it take ya? A slot on a server you have spare to design sommat?
Doesnt have to have auras and capes, just have fun designing sommat you think I'm gonna look at and think - that's the one!
I will announce the winner AFTER I have screenshotted Firespray with some of his SoV buddies outside Icon with the winning design on!
So, ten days and counting, lets see if we can't get a few more entries in!

ONE DAY TO GO.
I am closing the competition (If I am awake) at midninght on Friday, based on CENTRAL US time. That's about 6am MY time (and as people well know I am likely to be awake at that time).
So, I'll be making my choices for prizes and special mentions - if any, over the weekend and I will announce the winners next week.
Thank you to everyone who entered and there is still time if you wanna have a go, you never know, you might stand a chance at a prize and this is possibly going to be the last big credability giveaway as we got other stuff now!!
So, get them entries in and I will take a look at everything tomorrow.

Ok guys...your last orders were taken by Fire, and over the weekend he will decide whom gets the prize. No other entries will be taken. For those that thought they'd recieve any credibilty for this contest, I am sorry to say that you were wrongfully mislead. It was all a big miscommunication betweeen the higher echelon and lower echelon (Firespray). Please forgive us for so wrongfully informing you. Have a good day and thanks for the idea submissions.
APRIL FOOLS although it's true about the contest really being over
