    MineTime Rank Giveaway
    Hey guys and gals and unidentified "it"s of Minetime! Well, here's my first rank giveaway. I'm [Timeless] and am really bored so I decided to just give away a rank to some random winners.

    Terms and Conditions:
    1. No favorites, selective system or bribing will take place or work. All winners will be selected randomly and unconditionally.
    2. No bribery or tricks, deceiving, or in-game money will take warrant in any decisions made.
    3. Winners may NOT choose to have the rank given to another player. They may however, reject the prize completely, in which case another contestant will be chosen. Contestants will, however, ONLY be changed once to another player before omitting the prize altogether.
    4. If a rank is won/given, the player may NOT abuse the rank. Learn more about ranks at premium.buycraft.net.
    5. No correspondence or agreements (other than rank purchasing) have been made with Minetime and/or its affiliates regarding this contest.
    6. If a winner is chosen for a prize, and they already have a Minetime rank with which the money promised is not enough to upgrade, the winner will be DISQUALIFIED with no chance to win a prize and a new winner will be chosen. Ex: If Executives, CEOs, Admins, Timeless who win ANY award or VIP who win the $5 or $10 reward, they will NOT be given a prize. NO EXCEPTIONS
    7. If the contest is at ANY TIME cancelled or removed, or a prizes and quantity is diminished, you may NOT hold me responsible, as no form of payment is required from you. Also, IF it so happens that you have lost something through this contest or the contest has caused you trouble, you may NOT hold me responsible.
    8. At a minimum, unless changed, there must be at least 40 registrants for the contest. This number may be changed at ANY time without consequence. If this number is NOT reached (changeable) the contest may either be omitted or set to a further deadline.

    Breaking and/or not following and respecting these terms and conditions may result in omission of a prize, reports of trickery, bribery, scamming, or reselection of winner. (#4 is monitored by Minetime, not me)

    If you think something was unfairly done, refer back to the Terms and Conditions. If it's not covered there, you may PM me or comment below...

    Alright, enough rules. Here are the prizes. (All winners are chosen completely randomly; refer to the Terms and Conditions for more information)

    First Place will get (unless un-requested or omitted) a $15 rank upgrade.

    Second Place will get (unless un-requested or omitted) a $10 rank upgrade.

    Third Place will get (unless un-requested or omitted) a $5 rank upgrade.​

    So again, NO set system will be used to determine the winners. I'll probably just roll my twenty-sided die. Additional winners or prizes may be added to the contest.

    How to enter competition:
    It's simple!

    1. Scroll up or down (depending on device) to the poll.
    2. Vote, "I would like to enter the contest, please.
    3. Wait until November 23rd, 2014 6:00 PM Central Time for winners to be selected.

    Congratz! You've entered the contest.

    I might be late or not do it that day if I have something to do, but I'm pretty sure I'll make it. If I DO make it on time, my selection of winners will be announced by (hopefully) 6:30 PM.

    One more thing, I might forget to do this at all...
    So if I do, either Skype me at: minecraftchess or PM me on the forums or mail me on Minetime @ ido_pieguy

    I know this was long, but I hope many entries are made! Comment below if you have questions or just PM me.

    what if the next upgrade the winner can get costs greater than the set $5, $10, and $15? you'd be better off selecting one winner, and upgrading their rank by however much is needed.

    Well... I stated that in #6...
    I don't want, however, a freaking Admin to win the competition, and bankrupt me of every penny in my wallet.
    The amount of money may be changed, or the prizes could be grouped or separated, but I'm sticking with $30 as my budget.

    PS, I could do what dael said, but then I'd be breaking my budget if an Admin wins. Plus, Timeless could win and just request a kit or an alt account and I'd have to do that.

    Well, Nat is a CEO now if you haven't noticed. Plus, the upgrade would be $25 to Admin.

    Well, how about you start a forum account WITH your alt account. If you don't have access to another gmail account, ask your parents. Or else I may forget to upgrade your alt. If possible, try to get my Skype at minecraftchess. But then again, that's only if you win. xP Just, let's just think about it if it comes to that moment.

    I tried to make this for defaults so we could get a few more ranks and more appeal to support the server. About 60% of Minetime is default and about 80% of THOSE people have forums so that would make a lot of chance for defaults to win Premium or something like that.

    I made this specifically to fit the Premium upgrade to VIP or VIP to MVP or MVP to Executive. It's most suited though, as I mentioned earlier, for defaults.

    Well, you've got just as good a chance as anyone… the chance of winning First Place with 40 people entered would be an approximate 2.5% chance. Just cross your fingers.
