Title: [PR] Recruitment banner contest: Post by: Octiovus on August 08, 2006, 05:32:40 pm Over the past few months we have made an amazing recovery, we have turned the guild around from a mere 60 members according to MyUO and now we have returned to well over 150 members, taking 3rd place in the veteran member rankings. This is excellent news, and I commend everyone for their efforts!
Nevertheless we cannot afford to let our efforts slip. With a bit of elbow grease we can make this the biggest and best summer period ever - I would like to see an effort to break our previous 180 member record. Of course this is easier said than done, and in addition to our traditional recruitment on Europa I would like people to carry out regular recruitment trips (either lone, or as a group) at off-peak times to other shards as in these examples: (http://img111.imageshack.us/img111/1742/atlanticiw7.jpg) (http://img396.imageshack.us/img396/9274/catskilliu0.jpg) (http://img487.imageshack.us/img487/5502/catskill2nn5.jpg) The contest: *To see who can create the largest, most-eye catching, and generally most creative banner. The rules: *May be on any shard (Although must be recruiting for the BoC, of course!) *Only two entries per person. *The winner shall be decided via a poll on the OOC forums. *No obstructive banners (i.e placing crates all across a bridge) or in game spamming. The reward: *The winner of this contest will receive a mystery prize! So get out there, and get creating chaps and chapesses! Let's show the world what BoC can do.

Title: Re: [PR] Recruitment banner contest: Post by: Darcy O'Connor on August 09, 2006, 03:01:45 pm Right then ladies and gents, here is my attempt at a small banner campaign.
Completed on the Atlantic shard, depriving me of about 3 hours of my life... Here is the finished article. Sadly I cannot get a bigger picture, but most of it is visible. Enjoy! (http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/1300/advertisementcl3.png) I think that newb character must have got to GM inscription by the time I finished, and a lot of people were asking about BoC! I am to complete my invasion by Pwning the Moonglow bank area on the server, but we will save that for another time.

Mela (me) Hoagie Kelly (http://img95.imageshack.us/img95/4131/stageonevz0.jpg) (http://img158.imageshack.us/img158/3057/stage2uv1.jpg) (http://img150.imageshack.us/img150/3618/stage3we1.jpg) IT GLOWS!!! (http://img158.imageshack.us/img158/1545/stage32bl7.jpg) Took use ages and our fingers all hurt from pressing the 2 button. This was on Catskills on brit bridge! I hate the idea first Nich! *Shakes fist* ;) Looked lovely. Title: Re: [PR] Recruitment banner contest: Post by: Kazuo Shinrai on August 13, 2006, 08:48:28 pm Now you see... generally it would be wise to wait a few days before contributing like this as it generally gives people a "damn I am not even bother to surpass that!" feeling. Heh, like it did with me. When I read the first post I thought "hah, when I get home I am gonna win this easily!". Now, I am not so sure... :S
But as soon as I got some free time, I shall try! Title: Re: [PR] Recruitment banner contest: Post by: Mela Arkay on August 14, 2006, 05:40:55 pm Stop shying away from a challenge!
Title: Re: [PR] Recruitment banner contest: Post by: Veldrin on August 14, 2006, 08:46:48 pm This may not win the contest! (The other entries are pretty damn impressive.) But I still had a lot of fun putting this right in West Britain Bank on Europa with my OOC char. It may not be flashy or clever, but I'm damn proud of it!
(http://img230.imageshack.us/img230/9607/bocel1.jpg) (http://img230.imageshack.us/img230/2029/rulesbb4.jpg) BoC Rules! For quite a while, no one actually touched it, but a lot of people looked at it. Got a lot of exposure and questions asked! "What's BoC?" "The greatest guild on Europa!" Title: Re: [PR] Recruitment banner contest: Post by: Veldrin on August 16, 2006, 06:16:49 am Not sure who did this one, but when I discovered it, it made me grin.
