RULES FOR CHARM PHOTO CONTESTS - Please Read

Postby SultrySerenaSC2 » Sun Dec 17, 2023 10:02 am

Beginning June 1, 2025 - TWO NEW CHARM PHOTO CONTESTS!


Contest #1 LUCKY CHARM
- One Winner
- Cash Prize is $100 that will be added to your SC paycheck and paid by William
- No Voting; Winner will be selected by a Random Number Match Process
- No Restrictions on how many times you can win, even back to back wins are ok
- No Chance of Cheating
- Monthly Theme For Photo Entries
- Your Contest Entry Photo Will Advertise Your SC Site to the Fanbox Fans
- Charms may enter BOTH contests at the same time

Rules:
The end date of the contest will be posted at the contest start. I will use the "Mega Millions"

https://www.megamillions.com/ Lottery Numbers to determine the Lucky Charm Winner.

When and where are the drawings held?
Mega Millions® drawings are held Tuesdays and Fridays at 11 p.m. Eastern Time, 10 p.m. Central Time, 9 p.m. Mountain Time, 8 p.m. Pacific Time.


The last drawing before the first of the next month will be the "Lucky Charm" Winner day.
For June, the Lottery day we will use will be Friday, June 26.

Here's how to enter:
Post your free side compliant themed photo as usual, however, you also need to post a number between 1 & 70! This number must be very clear and easy to recognize. You can't select a number that has already been posted. Each entry must have a different number.

All entries must be posted by two days before Lottery Draw Date.

YOU CAN NOT EDIT YOUR POST ONCE IT HAS BEEN POSTED. Any edits will void your entry for that month. If a post is edited, a statement appears at the bottom of the post announcing it's edit.
Edits won't be fair and won't be allowed. Since everyone has to select a DIFFERENT number, it's not fair for someone to be able to change their number after they posted. Also, edits are not allowed to stop someone from changing their number after the winning number has been drawn.

After the Lottery Numbers have been drawn, the charm who's posted number is the number closest to the THIRD DRAWN LOTTERY NUMBER will be that month's $100 winner. In terms of closest, the number coming before takes priority in case of a tie (someone picks 48 and someone picks 52 and the number was 50. 48 would be "closest")

June - Slut at the Beach
July - Red, White & Blue
August - Vintage Vibes
September - Little Black Dress
October - Halloween
November - Tight Sweater
December - Santa's Helper

_________________________________________________________________________________________________




Contest #2 - Miss June Southern Charms - or current month
- One Winner
- Fan Voting To Determine Winner
- Cash Prize of $50 to be paid by William with your check
- Winner is not allowed back to back wins on the Miss Southern Charm contest - and must forfeit a
month after winning, even if she gets the most votes.
- NO monthly theme for photo entries, Charm selects photo of her choice
- Your contest photo will advertise your SC site to the fanbox fans
- Charms may enter BOTH contests at the same time. Winning the Lucky Charms Contest does not
incur a wait period for winning the Miss Southern Charms contest

Rules:
Each charm can post one free side compliant photo of their choice. The contest entry posting deadline date will be posted at contest start. Once the voting poll has been created, no further entries will be allowed. Only 1 vote per person. In case of a tie, the charm who posted her photo FIRST will win the prize.


Additional Notes:

Fans: If you are a "newbie" or newly registered, you must make 3 posts in any thread of this forum before you will be able to access the voting
Additionally, tipping is greatly appreciated for both the contest entrants and the winners!!

CHARMS: If you are having photo upload issues: For those of you emailing Brady or Brian about this, they aren't familiar with the forum photo upload issues you are having.
Please contact me if you are having problems. There's nothing staff can do to help you with the photo upload problem you are having.

You have to read the posts and my pm's. You are most likely trying to upload a wrong format, too large, or duplicate named photo.

Please change your file name to something obscure. The forum WILL NOT accept a file that has a duplicate name of a file already uploaded. Also it has to be jpg I believe. And please check the file size.

Those are the only reasons for you to be having problems.

If you find that you simply can't get your photo to load, please EMAIL IT TO ME. Serenacharm@hotmail.com so I can see what the problem is and correct it for you.
Thank you.

1) You must be a prior photo contest winner in order to post in the CROWN JEWEL Contest. Additionally, you are only elligible to post in the Shining Star Contests if you have never won a photo contest before.

2) Only "actively" posting charms are eligible to post photos. Actively posting, for contest requirements, mean you must have posted a new update at least twice in the month of the contest.

3) All photos must be compliant with free side posting rules of SC. NO GUESTS are allowed in photos for contest.. No hands, mouths, fingers, etc that aren't yours aren't allowed.

Rules Updated: May 13, 2024

For Crown Jewel Contest:

Contest MUST have at least TWO contestants in order for voting poll to be created. If less than two contestants: meaning only 1 has entered, the contest will be void for that month, AND that charm will be able to have her entry moved by me if needed, into the Shining Star Contest and be eligible to compete for the monthly prize(s). The $100 prize money for the Crown Jewel Contest will be awarded to the winner of the Shining Star Contest. The charm with the most votes will win the $100 prize. The charm with the second highest number of votes will win the assigned $50 Shining Star Prize.

For Shining Star Contest:
Contest MUST have at least TWO contestants in order for voting poll to be created. If less than two contestants: meaning only 1 has entered, then that charm will be able to have her entry moved by me if needed, into the Crown Jewel Contest and be eligible to compete for that month only, for the $100 Crown Jewel Prize. If the "Shining Star" contestant does in fact WIN the Crown Jewel Contest, then she is eligible to compete in the Crown Jewel contest for all future entries and then becomes ineligible for the shining star contest. Additionally, IF the shining star contest fails to have two or more entries, then the Crown Jewel Contest will afford TWO winners. The most votes received = $100 The second highest votes received = $50
