Updated 5/3/10
I have been trying to think of a decent contest to give away 2 copies of the retail version of SC2.
1-100 contests are dumb and are just spam fests.
Art contests are dumb because most people can't draw.
So what I have decided to do is to hold a Shack SC2 Beta tournament.
First place is going to get a Collectors Edition of SC2.
Second place is going to get a standard retail box of SC2
Third place will get a $30 Amazon gift card.
I know the prizes aren't much compared to some other tournaments going on, but this is coming directly out of my pocket.
Tons of details in reply....

Housekeeping Rules:
I am going to just steal these rules from the HDH Invitational as well.
1) All games MUST be played on the US (North American) server.
-
2) You are expected to be reachable for a reasonable amount of time during each play period. If you cannot be reached for an extended period of time and do not show up to your games YOU WILL BE REPLACED OR FORFEIT YOUR MATCH.
-
4) Winning player must email all replays to myself(timps3 at gmail dot com). You can also host them if you would like. SM me the links. DO NOT RENAME THE FILES. If the file
name is too long to see the time stamp please list which order they were played in the email.
-
5) Players may NOT livestream their games as they are playing.
-
6) Chat is allowed in game. However, any excessive abuse and/or spam in game will be taken very seriously.
-
7) Disconnects are an automatic loss for that player. If a game is so one sided that it was obvious who was going to win, a judgment call will be made. Our decision is FINAL and players agree to these terms by accepting their invite. In the event of a disconnect, should players not be able to come to an agreement by themselves contact myself IMMEDIATELY and send in the replays for review.
-
8) All games are played regardless of patches. Winning player will be expected to email myself the replays by the end of the round period.
-
9) Players under no circumstances are allowed to release results or replays to the public/Shacknews until after VODS/results have been posted.
