Greetings everyone, I trust all is well

Our wonderful developers at BioWare have created something very special for us ME3 Multiplayers and I thought it important to share with you. For those who don’t know, they are having a Community Banner Contest, where you can create your own banner based off of an already existing challenge for the multiplayer and send it in. BioWare’s 5 favourite banner designs will be introduced to the Multiplayer. Exciting!

As with all things this great, there’s the rules. When submitting, you must acknowledge that you accept the rules of the contest. There are no exceptions. Visits this page to view those rules.

You’ll be judged on your Creativity, your Originality and you Inspirational Accuracy (portrayal of the challenge which inspired your design).

The text below is directly from the BioWare Social Network, explaining the competition briefly. They recommend you read the rules before you decide to enter. I was a little late posting this online, but you still have time! Good luck anyone who wants to enter!

• The contest begins on February 15, 2013 at 12PM GMT, and submissions will be accepted until February 22, 2013 at 6PM GMT.
• Pick your favorite Mass Effect 3 multiplayer challenge and use that as the inspiration for your own design. If obtaining N7 Mastery was your crowning achievement, create a banner that you feel best captures that pride. Please note that weekend operation challenges do not apply for this contest.

• All submissions will be voted on by the BioWare team from February 22, 2013 12PM GMT to February 26, 2013 at 6PM GMT. Each submission will be based on creativity, originality, and accuracy to the Mass Effect 3 challenge it was inspired by.

Looking for inspiration? Look no further than the existing banners that have been awarded in multiplayer.  The volus have always had a natural affinity for biotics.  Think you can create something better for the Biotic Mastery Challenge, then submit your design to us!
