Originally Posted by Jesse_O A theme will be chosen each week, so participants must find a comic book cover that fits the theme. - One entry (one book) per person. - Must be a real comic book in circulation. - Magazine size books are also okay. - The book does not have to be in your collection. - Variants acceptable. - The previous winner is allowed to win in this contest. Each week we will vote on who had the best cover. - Friday begins the new contest. - Wednesday at 12 noon EST is the cutoff which starts voting that will go through Thursday at 11:59 PM EST. - Please vote through the built in "Thumbs Up" system. - One vote per person. - Don't vote early. The winner will choose the next theme and begin a new thread. - In the event of a tie, the deciding factor will be if your photo was of a book in a CBCS slab. If both books are not in a CBCS slab then there will be a sudden death tie breaker overtime submission by both contestants. - Repost these rules in your new thread to keep them easy to find and for new folks who want to play.

Quote:Originally Posted by GanaSoth "monos" means single and "lithos" means stone. Unless the word monolith was named after me, I'm not sure how that goes around full loop to make any logical sense. |
