Another free item naming contest is now open. This will be the last, so get ready and get prepared. This is your last chance!
This contest will not begin until 5:00 PM EDT on Monday, June 5, 2006.
Yes, that's correct. I am posting this about 24 hours in advance. Let's see how well you do with everyone else trying to submit their entry at the same time!
There will be no disqualifications before the contest begins.
No entries will be considered eligible until at
exactly 5:00 PM EDT. Good luck, everyone!
Read ahead for the rules (or if you've been with the program, you should remember the rules!). Thanks go out to all participants for making these programs successful.
This is the
fourteenth and final continuation (

3,
4,
5,
6,
7,
8,

10,
11,

13 ) of my free programs.
Five (5) individuals have the chance to win
two free item namings by submitting the following
mandatory information:
- On two separate lines, display the exact stats on each item you want named including networth.
- Below each item's stats, show the exact way you want the name of your item to appear. No edits will be made later!
- You must post two items for naming.
- You may not post more than one entry.
- You may not post someone else's items for them.
- Your post should include a total of 4 separate lines of information. If not, you better check again.
Payment and namings will be made to Jon when the first five (5) eligible participants have successfully given the above-mentioned information.
DO NOT LOAN YOUR ITEMS AFTER YOU POST! I will tell the first five people, who submit the information completely, who to loan the item to.
Final Statistics of Programs:
A total of 35 free supporterships have been handed out over 14 contests. ($350 USD)
A total of 110 free item namings have been handed out over 14 contests. ($550 USD)
Total Donations: $900 USD.
Thanks for making a great game, Jon!

And for those who can't read (yeah, that's you, th00p!), let me reiterate it one more time:
There will be no disqualifications before the contest begins. You can post in here before the contest begins (although I really don't see the point) and you won't be disqualified.

Aww, I'll be teaching then - want to change the time for me? ;)
SNK3R
June 4 2006 6:42 PM EDT
Sorry, Mael, I won't change the time. I specifically made it at this time to give the majority of time zones a fair chance. ;)
Maelstrom
June 4 2006 7:21 PM EDT
I know, I was joking :)
Besides, what's the chance that I'd get my entry in before everyone else? Good luck to everyone!

If you have a trigger finger, there's a good chance! ;)
I've never won any of these.. They are all held at bad times for me. Wonder if I can get a shot at it tomarrow. What's with the last one? You gone broke? heh

SNK, my time zone is 8 hours _ahead_. There's no way I'll be able to post in here without everyone else posting first.

There's always people who complain...

i do'nt even have the two items to be named. :P

Questions for as far as the naming goes: Say I have a not so conventional name and it by accident comes out wrong on the forum, do I still have the chance to correct this and to have the proper name or will I be forced to be able to correctly display the name in the forum because It will copy/pasted?
Or will you ask for a verification during the actual naming and make sure it looks ok?
Roenall
June 5 2006 11:39 AM EDT
Can we renamed item ?
SNK3R
June 5 2006 2:24 PM EDT
Shade: I normally expect people to submit their names correctly the first time. I do double check on the verification page to make sure it is displaying correctly. If I think something is weird, I usually chatmail them about it. However, I sometimes don't get an answer back soon enough. In any case, post it and if I have any questions during the naming process, I will contact you.
Roenall: I suppose I have nothing against people who don't currently like a name they have and want to change it to something else. You may submit an item in your entry that is currently named.

Spellcheck killed me. It didn't recognize "hilted".

Oh well, congrats to the 5 winners!
(Edit: Hilarious! It wouldn't let me post this either because of the spellchecker picking up hilted 2-now-3 times so here are more words words words to allow this post to go through).

All items have been named except for Slayer's 'cause he's a slowpoke and hasn't loaned them yet. ;)
For those that have loaned me your items, you will get them back within the left over time in which it takes for your item to return.
Thanks again for every person participating in the programs to make them successful! I'm glad to have helped several, several people.
