(This post was last modified: 08-29-2019, 02:22 PM by artermis.)


What is this?

The 2nd Annual SHL History Week Contest.

I plan to do an edition every season

This will essentially be a SHL History writing contest.

Hit me up if you can come up with a snazzier name.

What's new?

I'm still waiting to hear back from the SHL HO on funding, so for now we continue under last season's system, but I won't be able to fund it for a third edition myself, so donations/sponsorships are appreciated!

As usual, please hit me up if you any suggestions/questions!

What's in it for us?

Cold hard cash

I got a pile o' money and I don't plan on recreating.

Prizes up for grabs:
Best in Show - $1M per entrant
Best of the SHL - $1M per entrant (Currently $1M)
Best of the SMJHL - $1M per entrant
Best of the IIHF - $1M per entrant
Best of the rest (miscellaneous) - $1M per entrant
People's Choice - $1M per entrant

Awards and amounts subject to change, as anyone who'd like to add an award and throw in their own money to the pool, hit me up!

I will update this as the contest week progresses to reflect the amounts due to entrants joining as well.

How do I enter?

Easy: just PM or tag me on the site or on Discord with a link to your entry, so I know it's official.

It can be something you've already written, or it can be something new.

If you're wondering what we're looking for, Here's a link to the History Book.

In short, you can write whatever you want.

It can be first-person, or third-person.
It can be an account, or a report.
It can be an overview, or a brief.
It can be in-character, or out-of-character.
Yes, it can be about on-site topics as well.

Everything from a site retrospective to a Players' Tribune-type first person account.

Everything is welcome

What else should I know?

If you'd like to be a judge, hit me up:

Current Judges:
artermis

Right now all awards will be decided by judge ballots, save for People's Choice, which will be by on-site poll.

The best and most impactful entries deemed by the judges will be added to the SHL History Book.

The Deadline is August 29th at 9PM Eastern

Good luck and have fun!

Entries:
S49 SHL - S36 in SHL Career
S49 SHL - S43 Players in their SHL Career
S49 SHL - S35 in SHL Career

To wrap things up:

Luke as the only entrant wins Best in Show, Best of the SHL, and People's Choice to ensure he doesn't walk away empty-handed

It’s obviously I scared all the competition away
