Looks like the contest will be a go !
I like to offer up a contest to get Valiant some more exposure.
I was thinking that Facebook page/group for each title and/or character to be the entry. You must get at least 10 likes/members.
Prizes -
1) 9.6 SS CGC Harbinger Wars - Clayton Henry
2) Archer & Armstrong #14 NYCC Variant
3) Unity #1 red preview
and more that I haven't decided yet
I think voting should be done on whose pages/groups are best, not just numbers of likes/members; or it can be random from all who qualify. Each page/group is an entry.
What does everyone think about this ?
Thanks

Re: Support Valiant contest- prizes !
Interesting. I don't Facebook though, so I'll be out of the running. Great idea though as long as VEI is cool with private individuals controlling social media pages 'as' their characters. Don't know how this works, maybe it's not an issue.

Re: Support Valiant contest- prizes !
I don't think there is any issue with starting fan pages/groups on FB for whatever topic from VEI. I don't want to hedge anyone out of the contest by using FB, but I just figure it is a large demographic to use.
And yes, I do enjoy both the Valiant Fan clubs on FB that I'm in.
I quess this will give Jake an entry already if this is a good idea for the contest to pursue.
A little more feedback (couple days) and I'll/we'll decide if this is a greenlight, and I'll get a few more prizes together.
thanks
edit- can't find the Faith page

I think all pages/groups will need to have Valiant (and maybe comics) in their titles to make searches easier and more results.

Okay, back from vacation and time to get this rolling. First to look at couple more prizes to make sure I have the extras of them (should they only be VEI books ?) and I would like hear from any previous contest organizers for opinions.
thanks

Re: Support Valiant CONTEST- Prizes ! Input wanted ! Thanks
I think posting on both Valiant fan FB groups is solid idea, as I want FB to be where this contest takes place, and I do want as many contestants as possible. Shipping help for Canadian shipping would be appreciated, but not imperative. So would VH1 prizes be out of sync with having this a VEI contest ?nonplayer wrote:If someone starts the ball rolling and postes it on the CANADIAN valiant fan group on fb I will add a prize to the pool and pay for shipping to said winner.

So should it voting on who does the best page, who gets the most likes/members, or just random from all that get a minimum of 10 likes/members ?

Re: Support Valiant CONTEST- Prizes ! Input wanted ! Thanks
Okay since I'm a little hyped I want to get this rolling. I have added a a sealed Habinger The Beginning HC to the prizes and VH1 Unity slipcase with the first TPB, and top ten will get some variant issue and maybe more.
So start a page or group on Facebook, get 10 likes/members and 10 unique user comments to have an entry. Must have an about, at least 2 pics, and 2 Valiant related links.
Voting for favorite entries will be done here.
I would like this contest posted to the existing Valiant fan groups (if someone besides me would do it, thanks much).
I suggest posting links to this site on your page/group as well to encourage more votes for you.
These FB entries should not be a general Valiant listing, but instead it should of an individual character or team.
Valiant needs to be in the title, as it will simplify searching for everyone.
This contest starts in 5 days (4/28), as any input between now and then can be addressed, and ends at the end of May.
If we get 5 or less entries I will be the sole judge (and very sad) of who gets what prize. If we get more than 25 entries I will come up with more prizes beyond the top ten.

Re: A NEW Support for Valiant CONTEST ! Prizes to win !
okay, it looks like there is enough folks on FB here (my other post is showing) so in 2 days I'll post it on FB Valiant fans as well and hope we get some solid interest. I think FB is good place to blow out some more exposure. Let's knock this out !
