MTGO CASUAL

[Alpha_Centauri1]

Date: From October 23rd through November 16th (submissions). Voting to take place between November 17th and December 1st.

NOTE: For the purposes of this contest, I am using the main bots/decepticons from the recent movie (I used to watch the show, but I was too young to remember the other bot names!!).

Prize:

Autobots

Best Optimus Prime - 3 credits
Best Bumblebee - 2 credits
Best Jazz - 1 credit
Best Ironhide - 1 credit
Best Ratchet - 1 credit
Best NEW Autobot (i.e. non-existing) - 3 credits

Decepticons

Best Megatron - 3 credits
Best Starscream - 2 credits
Best Barricade - 1 credit
Best Blackout - 1 credit
Best Frenzy - 1 credit
Best NEW Decepticon (i.e. non-existing) - 3 credits

BONUS Prize - Best Allspark - 3 credits

Total Prize Payout: 25 credits

Rules: Enter as many times as you'd like; with each submission, you must indicate which card you are creating (in most cases, this will be evident by the title of the card...but just in case). Please do not make multiple submissions of the same card (i.e., please do not submit more than one Optimus Prime). Please enter your submissions by responding to this post; I will also post this thread on the MTGO Boards - A submission in either location will count (though posting in both locations would be very helpful!!). At the conclusion of submissions, I will copy/paste those submissions made on only one of these locations to the other so that everyone can view all submissions in one place. Please submit only your original ideas, or with the permission of the person who created the card.

Voting: The process for voting will depend on the number of entries we get. If there are a lot of entries, I will do voting to narrow down the entries, and then choose my favorites out of the remaining entries. I may also enlist the help of some other people (please let me know if you are interested). Anyone who helps out in judging may not vote on any particular card to which they have an eligible entry (note: this does not apply to the first round of voting, if it is required - you may vote on your own entries in this case). Full details on the voting process will be made available the day after submissions close.


I got pretty excited about seeing what would come out of this contest as I was typing it up. Let's see what you can do. Good luck!

thats too bad for Bledsoe I guess, but we should remember this incase he explodes or busts worse then last year.

Would you take Palmer, Harrington or Carr in fromt of him?

[zolueld09]

Fantasy wise, I think Bledsoe is a safe #2 QB if his O Line holds up.

Is there any way you would spend a 1st or 2nd round pick on a QB?
