</div>Well done folks, I had trouble deciding who to lolvote this month.
Congratulations!
(From your base!)
I liked all the winners submissions. Congratulations to you guys, good picks from the AoE team!
Sorry if I sound pedant, but I need to ask: Was my “comic tale” accepted for the contest as a valid entry? Just asking that because I had to upload extra text in order to show to everyone that I had followed the character limitation on my comic, so I had to make a quote with repeated text showing the text used for the comic. I mentioned that the extra text wasn’t part of the entry, but it was more sort of an annex… Something to help the avaliators, not to increase or add anything to my entry.
Just asking to get a confirmation, sorry for the nuisance. I certainly will participate on this new contest!
Can it be both a capture of the game and a digital illustration?
The prize is chosen randomly or does one choose the one he wants?

According to the official rules (unless they’ve changed this month) you can have up to 3 pictures (minimum of 1) and up to 600 characters of text. Yes, you can have 2 pictures.
And past contests suggest they’re not too super strict about it, a comic with more than 3 frames for instance can still compete.
You get to choose your price. In fact, if it hasn’t changed since the November contest, you get to choose two prices!

I was referring to that if I can participate with a design made by me. That is not directly a screenshot of the game, if not that I can have something say a modified add-on added by me. I do not know if I make myself understood.
But according to the other, thank you very much.
O, yeah, just look over the last few contests. There have been digital drawings, hand drawings, modified screenshots, screenshots of modded games, modified screenshots of modded games, modified photo’s, animations, animated modified photo’s, screenshots from different games mashed together, any kind of picture short of porn really.

Hey there! Yes your submission was accepted as a valid entry! To be honest when I run the contest (which is most months) I am pretty lenient on the exact character limits. Mostly because I don’t want to count them XP So as long as entries aren’t REALLY long, or have WAY too many pictures I will include them in the possible winners:)
Hope this helps!
