LOSTies Cataclysm Contest

Cataclysm has arrived and LOSTies would like to invite you to usher in Deathwing's new era through our very own guild contest in honor of all the fiery wrath and brimstone that Deathwing has brought upon the face of Azeroth. The contest submission deadline is Friday the 24th at 11:59 PM, Christmas Eve. Any submissions afterward will not be accepted. Posted below are the contest rules. Good luck and Happy Holidays, LOSTies!

Contest Rules:

1) To make this contest fair for those who don't have the expansion yet, contestants are to find a fiery locale within Azeroth or Northrend that is available to ALL players, even those who don't have the Cataclysm expansion yet. You cannot enter areas inaccessible to players that don't have the expansion, such as Mount Hyjal or Twilight Highlands.

2) Once you find a fiery spot, take a picture of yourself in it. Get creative! Take a screen shot which you feel best depicts Deathwing's impact upon Azeroth and its hopeless denizens. Two screen shots are required, your creative fiery screen shot and a picture of the world map with the mouse pointer barely touching your character's dot on the map so that I can see your character's name and which zone you are in to make sure it's not a zone that is inaccessible to players without the Cataclysm expansion. I will check those zones to make sure the spot you took the screen shot at is indeed the spot that shows up on your world map photo. Be sure to hide your UI (User Interface) while taking the screen shot. If you're on a Mac, press Option and Z. It may be different buttons if you're using a PC. Finally, you must have the LOSTies guild tabard equipped!

3) Deadline for submissions is Friday 24th, 11:59 PM, Christmas Eve. That's Pacific Standard Time. No late submissions accepted. Email your two screen shots to wowlosties@gmail.com. You must include a short description of your perspective when taking the picture. Why does this picture best portray Deathwing's fiery impact on Azeroth? You are welcome to get all poetic and gung ho with this short description – it will serve as the caption to your photo. Your Cataclysm photo submission will be posted on the guild blog.

Ideas:

Be creative. You can take pictures of distraught inhabitants or of affected creatures, or take a scenic picture of a locale that's in blazing ruins. You can even take a symbolic picture depicting cataclysmic changes that will either rain destruction upon the Alliance or make it shine far greater than the Horde. All interpretations are welcome, so long as you are in the picture and the guild tabard is equipped.
