Not everyone is caught up in the GS4 madness, and we still have a looooooooong half a year wait before T&T hits the market. So what do we do in the meantime?
A CONTEST!
That's right, Court Records' first official on-site Fanworks Contest. Over the next month and a half you can submit your fanworks in one of three categories: Fanart, Fanfiction, and Fan-sprite. But there's a catch:
Your fanwork must feature your own original PW Universe character!
Are you creative enough to match wits with Takumi and his team? Let's find out!
The real point of this contest is to judge your original characters in the context of a fanwork contest. Everyone participating will be able to submit a short bio of their own PW Universe original character, accompanied by a fanart, fanfiction, or custom sprite. It must be a character that YOU created and you can only submit one. Each category will be judged separately.
The winners of each category (thus, three people) will receive as their grand prize one of the GS4 promotional calenders Capcom released this spring!
There are more details you can read up on at the main site. But for now, some business to attend to: This contest needs judges. Each category will be judged by three impartial judges (for a total of 9 judges), in addition to an open poll that will appear on the main site come June. Three of our mod team have volunteered, so I still need two more judges for each category.
Naturally, if you volunteer to judge, you can't enter (in ANY category). Volunteer in this thread, and the mods and I will decide who to accept (on a basis of how well we know and trust you to be fair. We want this to be as impartial as possible). Judges will be weeding through the entries to make sure they follow the rules, and possibly trim down the number of finalists in each section, depending on how many people enter. Their votes will count a little more than the average voter, but everyone will have their say in who wins.
If you have any questions, comments, etc, feel free to post them in this thread. Good luck with your entries and let's all have a fun time!

I'd also like to volunteer as a judge, since I already have a GS4 calendar and it wouldn't be fair to someone who doesn't have one if I was to win and hog it.
Shoot, sorry, Croik.
I'd like to judge in the fanart category, please.

Also, a question that's definately going to be asked sooner or later; Can anyone enter/win in multiple categories, or is it restricted to one entry per member?

It shouldn't suck...?
Just make sure it's a finished, polished work. If it's a fanfic, it ought to be free of errors and read well. If it's fanart, it ought to be finished and proportioned (according to the style it's drawn in). If it's a sprite, it shouldn't have jagged, unfinished edits for Frankenstein piecing.As long as you did it yourself, it doesn't matter if you've already posted it to the forum at some time.

Say the character appears as part of a larger work. I'm assuming it'd only be "submit the parts the character appears in," correct?
'cause I'm in :P

One entry per member. You can't submit in more than one category.
You can submit the entire body if it's a multi-chapter work. But if the original character is not the prime focus of the story, you can submit only the parts s/he appears in.

You can draw a sheet of expressions as long as they're each well finished.

Could I enter and, in the small chance I won, give it to someone else? If not, I'd be interested in judging the fanfics, assuming I've the time.
EDIT: Out of curiousity, although we're submitting on original character, can we include other original characters (or PW characters, whatever) as well? Perhaps even as a somewhat big part too? I dunn if that made sense...

No. If you can't accept the prize, you can't enter.
If you have a story with two original characters, you can only enter one of them. But it's all right to have the second character still in it.
I'm going to bed. I'll decide judges tomorrow - if you get a PM, you're in!

Oh wait, the same would probably apply for me too! Aww man! I want to enter, but at the same time, I don't want to win! Guess there's no point in me entering then.

I already have a character in mind and everything!
And hey, whether I win or lose, it's the taking part that counts, right?
... But if I win I get a free calendar. Which is nice.
