I like this freebie. Let's play with it, over here: http://www.daz3d.com/forums/viewthread/40112/
Yes, that's US$25 of my own money, converted to a Daz gift card, up for grabs.

And two other people have donated DAZ3D gift certificates, so it's a real contest now.

Three prizes, (so far) two entries - one of the minis attacking the dragon on the screen, one of a mini resting against a d20 on the shore of the pond in the map.

With the number of gamers here, I'm surprised I haven't seen any names I recognize from this forum taking part in the contest yet...

Apparently, it's supposed to be free - at least, for now.

Just like these two are free - for now:

Obviously, the five-day challenge is long gone. The main challenge is still going ... and, roughly at the mid-point, I have one entry so far. What am I going to do with the other four prizes?

One day left, and there are seven entries - three from the same person. Unless someone else enters "just under the wire", the question is who gets which prize, not who gets a prize.

Monday, I can concentrate on the secret project... (What? Dartz already found it? I can't keep anything a surprise around here...) Ah, well - we'll pretend it's like a chapter of Drunkard's Walk (so no spilling the beans elsewhere until Monday, please): There's finally a http://poserdazfreebies.orain.org/wiki/Main_Page. I'm having trouble uploading images to it, so it's still in "pardon the dust as we move in" mode until Orain fixes that.

Ask Orain to add image uploading to your wiki (I'll see if I can't get that done beforehand) via their IRC channel.

If need be, I'll file an ansible request to that effect.
