Announcing Another Give-Away!

by Crazy Ivan

Sorry I didn't have this up earlier guys and gals.  Yesterday I was just so busy I could hardly blog.  Today it was an issue with my internet connection.

I promised another contest this afternoon so hope you don't mind that I'm getting it to you this evening instead.

Given the weather over the past few days (and I'm not just talking about the weather here in New York), I figured the next contest should be one that absolutely cannot be done from indoors.  So as a part of Myachi's ongoing effort to get people off the couch and moving, we're going to have a strictly outdoors contest.

So here's the deal.  It's a photography contest so you'll need a camera and you might just need a second person.  Why a second person?  Well, because you're going to be in the picture.

That's the contest.  We want to see you in the great outdoors, jamming with a Myachi.  If possible, we'd love to see some nature in the background, but for those of you stuck in the 5 boroughs it might be pretty tough to find any nature, so we'll accept the outside of a building if that's the best you can do.

We'll be giving out 3 prizes on this one with each winner getting a 5.0 of their choice.  One prize will be given for the best looking photograph (one with the coolest background, pose, etc.), one for the most creative picture (coolest concept for a picture) and one randomly selected (seriously... we'll just pick one out of a hat).  You can enter as many times as you'd like so the more pics you take, the more likely you are to win.  The more the better.

Remember, every picture has to show 3 things:

• The outdoors,
• A Myachi and
• Somebody jamming with that Myachi.

I understand that some people's parents won't let them put their face in a picture on the internet and that's fine.  If you need a neck down pic to keep mom and dad happy, that's cool.  If you have to, a picture just of a Myachi on your hand with the outdoors in the background would be acceptable.

So here's the nitty gritty rule stuff:

1. All Pics have to be in by June 29th at 11:59 pm.  That means you have three weeks and a few hours to get this done.  The deadline WILL NOT be extended on this one unless there are unforeseen problems like my email going down.
2. You can submit your pictures in three ways:
1. You can post them on our Facebook Page (preferred)
2. You can post them on Photobucket or Flickr and leave the link in the comments section of this blog entry
3. You can e-mail them to me at crazyivan@myachi.com
3. A panel of Myachi Masters will determine the winners.  Winners will be announced no later than July 1st at 10 pm Eastern Time (US).  All judges decisions are final.
4. All photos become property of Myachi
5. We will not accept any photos with obscene or offensive images.
6. Dates may be amended with or without cause by Myachi or Myachi's representatives.

So good luck, have fun and get outside and play!

If you have any questions, please leave them in the comments section below.  You can also email me your questions at crazyivan@myachi.com, but if you have a question, odds are pretty good somebody else will have the same question and it might be easier to keep it all in one place so everyone can see the answers.
