RELICS OF WAR “ITEM CREATION” CONTEST
Relics of War is coming and now is your chance to unearth some of these forgotten treasures. Every week, from now until the set releases on November 23rd, we’ll post one magic item card from the set. To win all you have to do is design a magic item to go along with the card, using any currently published game system, and post it to the contest submission thread. Each week, we’ll pick the best one and the winner will receive one display box of Relics of War item cards. There will be 5 winners in all.
Entries will be judged based on originality, clarity, grammar, and adherence to the game system’s rules. Entries must be no longer than 500 words in length and must be posted before 12:00 pm PST on the day of the contest’s end. Relics of War is a set of 110 unique item cards for use with any fantasy roleplaying game.
Feel free to discuss the contest and your entries in this thread. To submit an entry or view this week's card, see our messageboards and the product page.

Hey there all,
For those of you who have submitted ideas to the submission thread, they are looking pretty good. For those of you who have not done so yet, time is running out on the week one image. The contest closes at midnight PST on sunday.
Just a friendly reminder.

What time stamp is being used on the submissions posting? I posted my entry last night at about 10 PM PST, but it says 04:52 AM on the time stamp. Is that GMT? Also, when does the contest end? The first post I saw said 12 PM October 22nd, which I would take to mean Noon today. Then I saw a post indicating Midnight October 22nd, which would seem to have been 12 last night, but now I see another entry in the postings from this morning (if the time stamp is to be believed), so is it Midnight tonight? I'm just curious so that for the contests going forward I won't miss any deadlines. Thanks!

The contest ends at midnight tonight, local time for our offices. As of this post it is just about 3:45pm, giving everyone 8 hours and 15 minutes to get in.
