[UO Herald] Memorable Moment | Stratics Forums

To help us celebrate our 15th year anniversary we have come up with a nice piece of art that will be the reward for this writing contest. We will be picking 5 winners from each shard. The players that write the best story about their most memorable moment in UO will be sent a code to redeem for one of these robes.
The rules are as follows:

• Must be between 250 to 500 words
• Deadline September 15th
• Essays will be judged based on originality, content, and how well they capture what is special about the memorable moment they have chosen to describe.
• Winners and their essays will be announced on the Herald
• Codes will be mailed to you by Mesanna by October 6th
• Mail your entries to your shard Event Moderator. If you do not have an EM on your shard, please email your entries to [email protected]

Good luck to everyone and we look forward to reading your stories. Here is a sneak preview of the reward for this contest.

Psst!!! Notice ladies we have a robe that fits us!!

Interesting.

Its time to get remembering hehe!

 

[kelmo]

I hope I get to read the Siege stories... Is it against the rules to post them here too? *wonders*

 

[Tjalle]

I have an Europa memory so I might be a sellout on this one...

 

[FrejaSP]

I have alot of cool memories, still not sure what to choose

 

[Lady Raja]

Oh this is quite exciting! I do like to write and am quite good at it, I think... But a story that must be between 250 to 500 words? So this is going to be a short story then... I do believe I have a memory of a very cherished moment in UO I can use and make it between 250 to 500 words... I hope...

:mylittlepony:Thanks!

It is suppose to be a memory hehe so i think 500 words is fine.

We're not looking for the next Tolkien lol.

 

[Shh!]

Would QZ be automatically disqualified from this contest?

 

[Kael]

Couple of days left here.

I emailed and PM'd Aurora but no answer. Is this a hard and fast 500? What if you go over?

 

[kelmo]

Then Mesanna will melt your face.

I emailed and PM'd Aurora but no answer.

I e-mailed Aurora last night and also asked for a confirmation reply if possible which she sent me today. Try again to make sure she got it if you want.

Then Mesanna will melt your face.

Pfft!!, it grows back.

 

[FrejaSP]

Done, was very hard to get it down to 500 words max, ended up at 499.

 

[Troop]

I sure wish I was a decent writer because those robes sure would match my spiffy purple shoes.

 

[FrejaSP]

I'm not a decent writer as my english could be better and with only 500 words, it's sure not easy to write a RP story. Just try your best. If you not try, you have zero chance to get the robe.
