Contest Go!! Rules and Regulations
Channel: MotörMerc
Date: 15/12/2015

Read all the rules if you want to make sure you win these fabulous over-hyped up prizes!

DEADLINE: December 18, 2015 at 23:55 PST (that's 11:55 PM PST).  That allows over 72 hours to get a submission in.  I will still take submissions after this cut-off but you run the risk of being pushed out of a category because I reserve the right to begin judging and awarding prizes immediately at 23:55 PST!  Fair warning!

So what the heck are the rules?!

Basically I'm asking you to email me a pun you think I'll love, to the email address given in the video.  For purposes of this contest, a pun could just be a few words cleverly combined or modified, or it could be a long-winded joke culminating in a hilarious punchline.  But the punchline had better be a PUNchline, if you catch my drift, and it better be a good one.  ;)

There will be ten winners, according to the rules below, and all ten winners will get prizes and have their puns read on this channel!

Note: puns in comments on this video are more than appreciated but will not win you a prize other than street cred and high fives if you're local.

No more than one attempt per person please!  Cheaters never win (well they do but if I find out you cheated I'll be really disappointed in you).

How to win: FOUR ways!  (Wow!)

Way A: be a FAST punster!  The first 3 puns I get (that are at least passable) win Prize Packages (see below)!
Way B: be a HILARIOUS punster!  Excluding the puns from Way A, submit the funniest puns to win Prize Packages!
Way C: be a funny punster runner-up!  Be one of the two funniest pun submissions among all remaining entrants not already part of Way A or Way B to win a Li'l Prize (see below)!
Way D: be a sorta quick punster runner-up!  Be one of the two earliest pun submissions among all entrants that are not already winners by Way A, Way B, or Way C to win a Li'l Prize!

Prize Package:
You win a full size MotörMerc decal, plus a little special something-something I crafted to share with special subscribers who go the extra mile to contribute to the MotörMerc experience!  There are a few versions of the something-something so each winner might get a slightly different version but they're all basically the same thing.
Li'l Prize:
No sticker here, because those are super limited, but you still get a little special something-something!

Don't worry, the special little something-something is not scary, dirty, dangerous, etc.  It is just a token of my thanks.  It's not valuable either so don't get too excited.  It is just a token of my thanks.  ;)

The "special SoCal prize" mentioned in the video is real!  You can earn this ultimate prize by being in the top three in BOTH categories!  In other words, your pun must be one of the first three I receive, and it must also be funnier than any pun delivered fourth or later.  You will still only receive one Prize Package but your Prize Package will be upgraded to the Special SoCal Prize Package of in-person delivery of your Prize Package.  Oh yeah, you must also live in SoCal.  For purposes of this contest, Santa Barbara is as far north as you can be and win the Special SoCal Prize Package.  This prize might be delayed in delivery depending on scheduling, especially if the distance is far.  Fair warning!  I may extend Special SoCal Prize Packages to additional winners at my discretion; but I will work very hard to at least honor this special prize for anyone who goes the extra mile in both categories!!

I will email each winner back at the address used to submit their entries, so we can figure out the best way to get the prize delivered.  If I mail your prize to you, I will cover shipping cost, don't worry!

Most important rule: if you don't win, don't take it too hard.  If only ten or fewer people play, everyone wins, otherwise, someone will have to go without a prize.  It doesn't mean your pun was bad, or that I don't like you, just that there are limited prizes.  I'm grateful for all the people who follow my channel, and the connections I've made through motovlogging, and grateful for your participation in this contest, which I hope will be tons of fun for everyone.  Thank you all for participating in your own way!

:)
