I am offering up 2m to whoever can create the best poster for us to use as an advertising tool on various websites such as reddit.

The idea is simple: create a poster which clearly advertises our rscrevolution Classic server and forums in order to attract some new faces. Information such as the website, xp rates, and improvements (such as the bank system) should be on there. Other things can include how to skip tutorial island (people may struggle with figuring that out), how members are free, and whatever else.

It's time to stop complaining about the lack of a larger population and to make a real effort to get some players. And now is the perfect time to start doing that. Fate has been on the ball with bug fixes (the next patch will have plenty more bugs fixed), as well as starting to release the new quests (he has already begun work on the next one). Not to mention the addition of Mod Marc and myself to help alleviate Jebby from being over worked.

Lets put our faith back into a fun and thriving server and stop talking and start doing.


2m GP to whoever can come up with the best poster by Friday.

500k 2nd place

Awesome to see some motivation for getting more players back to an amazing game with an amazing server team.

Some people might be shy or don't know a format for a banner like this, so I decided to utilize my amazing MS Paint skills and drawing to lay out an idea.

I hope this isn't the winner or I will be so disappointed in you guys! Can you imagine if can even pass muster to win....

There is no real direction for the poster idea. The entire point of doing this with my own cash is to just try and attract new players. Once we settle on a poster, which hopefully we get more than the two I've received, I will be posting it often to sites like reddit and giving links so you guys can help by at least voting on the post.

So yes, anything you want to use in terms of artwork is welcome. As long as the website is listed and certain qualities of the server like XP rate and free members are posted, I don't care how it looks. Just keep in mind that this is something we will be using to attract new players.

put this beast as an advertisement to catch attention

this can be the catchy attention grabber, and it can be  whomever makes the article  and
with this being the annoying attention grabber

Good attention grabber but the it doesn't really tell anything about the server but it being RSC. :\ Also the rainbow is a little hurtful on the eyes haha

Bumis, definitely make an attempt. Whole purpose of making it a competition is to get many versions to spread. This isn't limited to 1 entry, its a very open contest for a week then myself and the staff will pick a winner (or maybe two!)

Alright I'll have something going in the next couple of days for sure.

Are animated GIF's acceptable, in banner form?

Bumis it doesn't really matter. I plan on bombarding reddit with it every few days in certain areas.

And nicely done sellerane!
