Dear Rocks and Lobsters,
So I'm currently hanging out, taking a break from the early morning routine at the Inn to write a few words.
So me and the Gryphon ( ) will be at Otakon 2005, and I think I have something that may spark some interest!

All are welcome to join the:

Okay! Here's how the contest works.
Me and Gryphon are starting the "Mad Tea House" website come August and to get the word out and about, we are hosting this contest.

Just like any "Where's Waldo?" book, you have to find us. Us or some form of us.
Don't get it?
Let me explain.
We will be roaming about the convention center, we will have sample comics stationed somewhere, and we will have a flyer hanging somewhere about.
You have to either:
A. Find One or Both of Us (Gryphon and KareBear)
B. Find the sample comics
or
C. Find the flyer

When you find one of the three, all you have to do is take a picture of yourself with one of the three, send it to us, and you win!

Wondering how to find one of these three? That's simple.
Gryphon and I will be wearing name tags. The sample comics will be in an area where they can be displayed *hit* and the flyer will be somewhere where it can be posted *hit*
Now your all wondering; well, if I find one of the three, what the hell do I win?
We'll I have to say, the prize is really pretty awesome!
If you send in a picture of yourself with either us, a sample comic, or the flyer, you get:

A Chibi CG picture of yourself or a character of your choice!

Not bad for something that's pretty easy to win, eh?
The Chibi will be added to a group shot of all those that have won and will be featured on the official "Mad Tea House" website.

Sound awesome? We thought so to.
All right, so a quick break:

Objective:
Find either Gryphon or myself (who will have name tags), the "Mad Tea House" sample comics, or the "Mad Tea House" flyer at the Otakon 2005 convention.

Entry:
One photo taken of yourself and with one of the three listed above and sent to us before the due date.

Prize:
One chibi drawing of yourself or a character of your choice.

Due date:
Since we understand that not everyone has a digital camera, are due date will be the following:

August 25th 2005 at 4:00pm EST

That gives you an extra five days to develop your film. No entries will be taken after that date and time. No exceptions.

Where to send your entry:
You may either post here on Deviantart or you may send it to my email address at:
Have_A_Cup_Of_T@yahoo.com

Rules:
1. Only one entry per contestant (if you happen to find all three of the objectives, you will still only get one drawing)
2. DO NOT TAKE THE FLYER DOWN!! (If you happen to find the flyer, do not take it down. We want everyone to have a chance to find the flyer, so take a picture and leave it be.
3. The sample comics will be a pile and will be there for the taking, but please; ONE PER PERSON! Do not take more then one and give it to a friend to enter with. That is just wrong and we will have someone with the sample comics. If they say that the person didn't personalyl find the comics, we will not accept their entry.
4. HAVE FUN!! This is something that Gryphon and I are really exicted about and hope to have a lot of fun with. If you happen to find us both, please don't hesitate to say hello! We might even doodle something for you, if you give us a cookie.

Some Helpful Hits and Such:
1. The images that will appear on the name tags will be posted here and DA. Watch out for that.
2. Check back with the Contest just in case we make any slight adjustments.
3. The "Mad Tea House" website will be ready the beginning of Augusr, check it out for some possible hits on the location of us at certain times during the convention, and where the sample comics and flyer is.

Hope to see you there and have fun with the contest!
(any questions, you may note me about and I'll either answer them or make a correction to the contest info. ^^)
