[Contest] The Newblood Initiative

There are a whole lot of people on IA that are not aware of the InstantAction Forums and many more that may not harness all the skills to truly dominate on some of the games.  This is your chance to help them out and earn something in return.

Gamethief has started up the Newblood Initiative to help out noobs and reward the helpers.  The rules are simple:

1. Find a newblood
2. Offer the newblood some help (tips, how to play the games, etc.)
3. Introduce the newblood to the forums.  

What you get:

The top 3 "newblood wranglers" will be awarded tokens on the following token amounts:

1st place: 1200 ActionTokens
2nd place: 600 ActionTokens
3rd place: 300 ActionTokens

In addition all newbloods of the first place winner will receive the "DarkOnes" avatar pack.

That's the lowdown of it.  For more information and details of what the rules mean please head to the forum topic: The Newblood Initiative
