  3. In this guide, I will explain what I know about hosting a xat contest. Deciding the type of contest First things first, what kind of contest are you planning to host? Is it going to be an in-chat event, or something for the forum? How to decide if a contest should be hosted in-chat, or on the forum: In-chat events: Forum contests: Planning your contest What makes a great contest is the preparation done in advance. This could be harder than hosting the actual contest itself, so it's best to develop a creative outline. This comes in multiple parts. Planning an in-chat event: Planning a background contest: Budgeting for your contest You have planned what kind of contest you want to host, and have made your drafted notes of the questions you plan to use (if applicable). Now, another part of planning your contest is budgeting! What does budgeting mean? For in-chat events: For forum contests: As mentioned above, decide how many total xats you want to invest towards your contest, and then divide that total into how you want to award your winners. If you wanted to invest 8,000 xats towards your contest, divide the total into how you want to award certain winners (EG: 1st place: 5,000 xats, 2nd place: 2,000 xats, 3rd place: 1,000 xats). Be sure the number of xats awarded matches the total invested! IMPORTANT NOTE: If a contest is cancelled after 24 hours, the contest creator must forfeit the prize and choose a winner! Deciding when to host your contest You have successfully prepared your contest to be hosted, and have properly budgeted how you want to award your prizes. Now all that's left is to decide WHEN you want to host your contest! For in-chat events: For forum contests: Hosting your contest You have successfully outlined how you plan to host your contest, planned your budget accordingly, and are now ready to host your contest! This is where the fun begins! This section will elaborate a bit on how to host your contest when the time has come. For in-chat events: For forum contests: Judging: Awarding your prize:

  11. This post will list uploading instructions if there is ever a contest where participants will have to upload whatever is around them away from the computer such as taking a picture of something in their house like a game that uses their television. Step 1: On your mobile device, go to imgur.com. The URL will take you to m.imgur.com, but that's normal, as you are uploading from a mobile device. Step 2: Near the top of the webpage, on the right, you will see next to the Imgur logo a link to download the app. Click this, and download the app from the app store. If you already have the Imgur app, then you may skip these first 2 steps, and proceed to step 3. Step 3: Once you are in the Imgur app, you will have to create an account. If you already have an account, sign in with your credentials. Step 3B: If it asks you which tags you want to follow, check at least 3 tags, doesn't matter which, then press "Continue" at the bottom. Step 4: On the lower menu with the icons, click the Camera icon. Step 5: Allow Imgur to access the images in your gallery. Step 6: In your Gallery, you can choose to take a photo right now, or if you have already taken one, select the picture you want to upload, and hit "Next" on the upper right. Step 7: Come up with a title for your upload. On the menu directly below the title, set it to "Hidden" and then press "Upload" on the upper right. Step 8: After the image uploads, the "Next" button changes to "View." Click this button. Alternatively, if you get a push notification saying that the upload is complete, press the notification to view your recently uploaded post. Step 9: On your computer, go to imgur.com and sign into your account. Step 10: Click your name. A menu will appear. Click "Posts." Step 11: Find your post in the menu and click it to view your image. Step 12: Hover over the picture. Near the top of the image, you will see a link to copy which is different than the one you are already on. Press "Copy." Step 13: Once the link is copied to your clipboard, open a new tab and paste the link and add .png or .jpg to the end of the link. Step 14: You will see that the entire webpage is nothing but your uploaded picture. Copy the link WITH .png or .jpg added from the web address bar. Step 15: Paste the link on your reply to the contest thread and caption it that you are uploading your picture for entry. xat will automatically paste it as an image. You have the option to display as a link instead if you prefer.
