I have a PM out to Curtis and I am waiting on a response.
We wont need to put the link in until we post the Actual Contests themselves.
If I dont have an answer by the end of next week I will give him a Call.
He may be on vacation or very busy at the moment.

There is a sticky thread that you need to put the information into so That Curtis can create your entry forms.
There is a list of what he needs from you.
It needs to be done as quickly as possible so He isnt trying to do this at Midnight the last day of January.

To all Contest Chairs, Your entry form information is due so Curtis can make up the forms and links. Its important to use this system so we can track participation in each contest.
There is a thread in the planning forum to post your information for Curtis.

Your prizes for your contests are listed in The Contest Prize thread now posted in the planning forum.
Many have multiple prizes for a particular place. Hopefully you can copy and paste.

Because of the perception that you will have access to the answers to the following Contests you will not be allowed to enter in them as a contestant.
Trivia, Puzzles, Match the pen.
You can do them but you cannot win in them, daily or other wise.
You are allowed to enter any of the Pen, casting, Box, stand, etc contests as a competitor.

This might be a dumb question but what is the sub-forum? Is it the ones we've already created for our contests?
Thanks

It is not a dumb question. Iif you look above the list of threads it says Public
2016 Birthday Bash Public Forum. You will notice a forum for you contest. Copy and Paste your final set of rules in that forum along with the prizes for your contest and any other changes that need to be made. As soon As Curtis posts our links for the entry forms we will add them to the contests.

Yes, its new this year. In the past we had to have exclusion rules for forums in which people were going to enter. Its difficult to do so and makes for a lot of hard work on Jeffs part. Its easier just to exclude us.

IF you get a notice I have changed something in your contests, It means that I have added a link to the Universal Contest rules. It was added to the wording so that they can click on it and read it if they havent already. I have not changed anything in your description and rules other than to add that link. I could have had each of you change it but I had the time and only a few contests needed it changed.

No problem, as long as I can still enter the Ugly Pen contest.

What do you mean, we don't have that this year. :crying:

IF you havent noticed your entry forms are posted in a seperate thread now. Please try them once before posting them.

Jeff will have your Moderator Status fixed tonight after he gets home from work. You will be able to make changes and additions after that.

I have edited that link and it should be working. If your link does not work, the rules page is under the Activities Manager Forum. Click on it and copy the url at the top.

On another note, is it ok if we post a "practice poll" for our contest somewhere in the contest chairs planning forum to give it a test run before we go live in the public forum?
I always had a problem with past polls showing the results to the public before the close and had to ask for help from the mod's to correct.
