PJM Writing Contest Winners & Art Contest Clear Up

by

Sorry for the slight delay, as I got struck with a severe headache and a bad temper. But I persevered to bring you the ultimate winners of the PJM 2014 Writing Contest!

I received 10 round two submissions, all of them which were excellent! You all did a great job guys. Choosing two winners proved to be a daunting task. But the big winner was a clear-cut case for me, as I absolutely loved his history of Pokémon before Pokémon even existed. So I hereby declare the following Pokéjungler as the absolute first winner of the PJM Writing Contest:

James Hurst with Capsule Monsters: The Pre-evolution to Pokémon

The second winner was a though choice between four favorites, but I ultimately went with:

ShinyXatu with MissingNo.: The Acceptable Glitch

Both will get contacted for further details regarding fine tuning their articles within the course of next week. And of course, we can’t forget to mention their prize. Each will get a free printed copy of the magazine, including free shipping :). The others will get the chance of seeing their articles up on the site, starting as early as next week. I’ll contact them if that’ll be the case.

While I get back to work off-screen, I would like to address the confusion that arose around the Art Contest. This is most likely my own fault as I was extremely exhausted writing the introduction article and seemingly forgot to write a general description.

The purpose of the Art Contest is to receive high quality (in technical terms) digital art commonly found on sites such as Deviantart. The winner will see his article taking up one whole page, so it has to be something suitable to be blown up so much. It will be very much like a big ad in a magazine, but without the advertising. For technical details, click here. If you still have some questions about the contest, be sure to hit me up with an email (found in the article) or just shoot it at me in the comments.

I’m off for now, my head still pounds with the force of one million suns. Happy commenting, and don’t be afraid of being banned quickly, the Headmaster wasn’t trying to intimidate anyone :).

    • At 30 Votes or when one outnumbers another by enough to say it’s a winner.

      Ex
      Derp1 gets 18 votes
      Derp2 gets 4 Votes.

      Derp1 gets 12 votes
      Derp2 gets 10 votes
      Derp3 gets 2 votes

      The cap is 30. If Derp 2 got the rest of the votes, Derp 1 would still win because it outnumbered it.

      for the second example: Derp three would not win because the votes are at 24/30 and if the remaining 6 votes with to Derp 3 it wouldn’t make a difference. Derp 1 and Derp2 would be close and continue until they hit 30 votes when all votes are added or one outnumbers the other.

  6. So I’m tutoring electrode eerie impulse.. and I notice it learns a sweet new move called “Magnetic Flux” which boosts def & sp def of pokemon with Plus/Minus on the field. Great for double battles. I didn’t know this move existed.

  14. Okay I don’t shiny hunt because I like to find shinies randomly, but I have a question. How do you guys find all of these shinies in the friend safari? Is it by the poke radar? Or does the friend safari just have a higher rate? This is probably a stupid question but I don’t understand how some of you guys are like, “just found 3 shinies in the friend safari!”
