Nothing scarier than pulling a 5☆ in a color already @5 and not full covered

Nice idea I will start writing mine now.

I am confused, is this just a story starring characters in MPQ, or are we supposed to take actual screenshots with different lines?

Just use any/all characters from MPQ and make up a gorey story. No screen shots needed or anything like that. Just make up a story starring the characters from the game.

Any chance submissions can start being accepted at 5 instead of 7 on Friday? I already wrote a story, but won't able to post until Saturday night otherwise.

Send a copy, or write your story in a PM, to me or fight. We will post it as soon as the contest opens. I have mine written and ready to go as well so you can send it to me and I'd be happy to post yours when I post mine.

This goes for any and all forum members that will be unable to post their story for whatever reasons. Send a copy to fight or myself. As soon as the contest officially opens, we will post it for you.

My official entry for the Halloween Creative Writing Competition

I really can't be bothered. Y'all can imagine what it would have been like... a bunch of barbed comments about drop rates and customer support nightmares and bugs and freezes, all wrapped up in a tenuously held together narrative about Liliana fighting Jace. Whatever.




What did you think?
Pleace vote for me so I can win 600 crystals.

Ok....how do the rewards even compare between Marvel and Magic?

With Marvel you get a card (cover with them) of your choice which are mostly the legendary cards and....oh, a legendary card for first place while for Magic we get....literally just gold and runes? Really? The transition would be a card of your choice and a Mythic.

For any player who has played for more than a month, even a choice of rare would often be better than getting 600 crystals; do they not understand their own drop rates? 1 big box is often just all duplicates.

Dude, that's the scariest thing I've ever read! How do you expect me to sleep tonight?

Thanks for bringing attention to this matter. Although I don't think we can change the rewards for the contest with this event, I will discuss it with Hi-Fi and see if we can't upgrade the rewards for future events.

If you are referring to this post, unfortunately it does not qualify. It is simply a comment about why you have chosen not to write a scary story, not an actual a scary story. And that's why it was moved to the contest discussion thread.

Hi, there!

Am I to assume that the voting is now closed for the stories?

When will we receive a verdict on a winner? I'm a little nervous about the timeline, considering that BfZ packs are leaving the store in 2 days!

fight4thedream

Hi Kuraikarp!

Thanks for your query! Yes, voting is closed and the entries have been sent to D3 Go! to determine the winners.
Unfortunately, I don't know when the results will be posted but they normally take only a few days so I imagine results will be up later this week.
