The new edition of contest in May is launched today. The theme is storytelling – share your first cosplay story. If you still remember how excited you were when the first time you COSPLAY, if you still miss the feeling at that time, please don’t be hesitant to join in our Contest and share your experience and thoughts to win free cosplay costume and wig at our store.
Contest Name: My First Cosplay
Anyone who wants to share your story of your first cosplay is welcomed to our contest. You can write about anything you found interesting and special e.g. when and where was it, which character did you dress as and which friends were you with. But there are no limits! Just explore your mind!
Your story is supposed to be published on your own website. Notice that there are only three websites legitimate for this contest – deviantart.com, facebook.com and tumblr.com, i.e. you have to have at least one account of the three websites to join in this contest. More details will be discussed in “How to join?” section below.
Winners and Prizes!
There will be one participant winning out on each website, as long as the number of the participants on that website is more than 7, i.e. if the number of participants on Tumblr.com is less than 7, there will be no winner on Tumblr.com. In addition, every participant will get a 5% coupon code from us.
Each winner can choose any cosplay costume/wig in our cosplay store.
Voting Process!
Participant who gets the most votes will win out finally. The votes will be given based on the following standard:
- For Deviantart.com – Each comment and each “favourite” will be counted as a vote. But comments from the same account will be counted as one vote only, and comments from the organizer and cosplayers do not count.
