Like I promised earlier, Court Records is now ready to announce the start of a pair of exciting repeat contests.

The Original Character Contest

Just like last year, we're accepting original character entries in the categories of fanart, fanfiction, and sprite edit. Only one entry is allowed per person, but everyone is eligible. Unfortunately I haven't gotten my hands on prizes yet, but they should be announced soon.

Pick Your Prosecutor

Only members of the forum are eligible for PYP. Guess what you think GS5's main prosecutor will be like with a short bio. Many many chances to win, so toss out all your wild ideas!

If you have questions about either contest, please post them here, or shoot me an email.

(Also, after reading the responses from the last update, I have changed the AJ timeline to take place in 2026)

Are repeat performances acceptable, assuming the submission is a completely different piece from last year's, not just updated? I may end up submitting a new version of the OC I had entered last year, as I'm almost certain others might like to do...

Woo! Contests. I always love looking at the entries 8D

I'd enter the OC contest but:

a) I'm still hammering down my OC's details
b) Checking, double-checking and triple-checking to make sure she isn't a Mary Sue. (But I just can't bear the fact I'll have to let go of her unicorn: Diamond)
*cries*
c) I'm extremely, extremely lazy >D

Contests! Image

Er...I have only one question here: I'm up to submit a fanart and I know what "violence" means, but since PW universe is full of cases(=P), is it O.K if I draw a murder scene?No horrible body, but some blood and a scared face... the whole picture maybe quite dark.

Is that fine?Image

Well, contest or no, you can always submit your OC (and subsequent updates) to the OC Archive.

If you submitted a character last time, that character is not eligible again. Likewise, our three grand prize winners from last year can't win first place again, but if they want to submit something as like an exhibition, I'll post it.

A murder scene is fine, as long as it's PG13 - some blood is all right, but not open wounds or chunky guts.

Hey, bit of a question. See, both me and my sis might want to enter, but would we be allowed to, or would it count as multiple entrys from the same person?
If not, well... you know?

Mm, I saw the guidelines. We can submit two images, or did I understand it incorrectly? ^^;
Because if so, I guess I could make one image as a scene or poster-like image and the next as her character design alone. I hope I don't get too lazy though...

I feel a little awkward. I've been developing my first entry for close to a year now, expecting another contest, and then I can't submit her again... so I'm stuck with developing a whole new one that I pull out of my ass for this year.

Then again, my first entry was made in the short span of one to two months before deadline, as well - I remember submitting on the last day, only to have it pushed back 24 hours. Hahaha. And I still got runner-up for that year.

I suppose that can be part of the challenge, then. Developing a new character in this short amount of time, hmm...

Well, since I am the fail at spriting (other than recoloring and cleaning) and my fanart would be a 100% fail ratio, I'll go with fanfiction as I was actually praised for my writing prowess when I was still in school. But that was a long time ago, so my writing skill is a bit rusty...

Anyway...


CODY HACKINS AND HAKURO DE KILLER ENTER THE BRAWL! Err... CONTEST!!

EDIT: I am counting the days when someone makes a GS/Naruto crossfic just for fun where Recruitment Officer Mike Meekins meets Rock Lee and engage in awkward (non-yaoi) conversation and then are discovered by Naruto and Phoenix, who both remark on how much Meekins and Lee look almost exactly alike. Even though i don't like naruto much, that would be epic win.

How long is a *short* background?
I'm working on a character and her background is coming close to a typed page.

Do I have to shorten it?

Oh, and can your character be sort of cliched?

E-eto... I mean, post in the forums itself, not send it to Ms. Croik. I was wondering if we need to wait until after the contest to post here.

If I recall correctly, last year's OC contest required that submissions be made via e-mail, however, your contest entry wasn't supposed to be presented here in the contest thread proper. There are already sections for fanart and the like, so those would be the places to showcase your OC work. :P Another issue to factor in is the publicity effect - not all submissions are presented for the popular vote, and if people see it before it's properly in the contest, well...

Mm, I see~ Thank you very much for clearing it up for me. It makes sense to withhold public view from one's entry. I guess I kind of worded my previous question wrong that's why I didn't manage to make my question sensible xD;;;, Thank you very much :D
