Hey guys.
We 're not going to deny that the crash and subsequent reboot of the forum didn't throw Contests HQ for a bit of a spin. But we're going to try and do our best to make up for it, by going back to our roots and doing our five most popular contests. That's right, starting from... well... last month, we're doing our five core contests. The
Troops contest is well under way, but starting soon we're going to be launching the other four Force Organisation slot contests.
"But MT," I hear you all cry, "You already did HQ and Elites this year." Yeah, yeah, we know. But to try and give the renewed Second Sphere a boost, we're going to
redo those contests, to give everyone more chances to win the coveted Second Sphere dice

This, in no way, invalidates the previous 2012 contest winners of HQ and Elites; there'll just be two sets of winners in each of those categories this year.
As it stands, the calendar for contests looks as follows:
We apologise to any and all members who entered into contests running at the time of the crash. It seems highly unlikely that we can retrieve your entries. If you have records of them, keep hold of them and re-enter them when the contests come around again (we won't count them as having been entered into a past contest). We're very sorry, but it's the only thing we can do.
Keep an eye out for the HQ rules thread; it'll be up soon.
