The Shack has it's grip on 5 "keys" to the Legions private beta and wants to pawn them off on you artistic folk (maybe those who aren't as well). All you need to do is use the provided images and paste them into real world events, preferably news. Make it funny, make it fun. Following are some of the submissions so far.
You've got until 11:59pm CST on April 1st (that's a Tuesday) to get your entries posted. Head to Shacknews for full contest details. Open that legal copy of Photoshop or equivalent photo editing software and get to the creating.
What happened? Were you one of the people that fell asleep during the last contest to get in on the Legions private beta? Well it's your lucky day. The first contest is over, but a second one has begun. 30 more InstantAction users will gain access to the Legions private beta.
How do you win this contest? Do what you were doing before, but do it harder! Just get the most friends to sign up between now and 4/9/2008 and you've got it. Access to the Legions beta.
No, this isn't some cruel April Fool's Day joke either. Log in, click that friends tab up on the top there, start adding email address and send them out!
I've created an image for those that prefer visuals. Below you'll find an aid on how to invite friends to InstantAction. My Photoshop skillz are lacking.
Consider this your final notification for the Legions Contest. The contest will come to a close Monday, March 31st. That means you still have the entire weekend to invite your friends, parents, grandparents, friends grandparents, and anyone else that you hold dear. Get to the inviting and get access to the Legions Private Beta.
Here's what you receive if you win:
Access to the Legions Private beta for you and two of your closest buddies.
A limited edition Legions avatar for use on InstantAction.
Undying admiration from all of your friends and fellow players on InstantAction.
Remember those tokens that you've been
accumulating since you joined InstantAction? You can now begin using
them to unlock the complete
InstantAction experience.
You may be wondering, “what can
ActionTokens do for me?”
Fortunately I have an answer.
Beginning
today, ActionTokens allow you to
access:
-New Levels and Maps:
get more out of your favorite InstantAction games.
-Premium In-Game Items:
new characters, power-ups, and other exclusive extras means more
ways to play.
-Special Site Privileges: such as the
ability to invite a friend to join your party even if they do not
own the same level, character, or other game-related item as you do.
And what do you do if
you don't have enough tokens to unlock something?
You will be notified if you have an insufficient amount of
ActionTokens and will be given the opportunity to purchase additional
tokens. From there unlock until your heart is content.
That should about do it. Feel free to
post here if you have any questions.
