In celebration of the newly released Agent Network and South African expansion we are hosting the second part of the #FanArtSWL contest.

This time around your mission is very simple. We are looking for submissions exclusively inspired by the Agent Network in connection with Season 2.

You need to create a piece of writing that sees one of your agents ‘somehow’ end up in the newly announced zone. How they get there is entirely up to you. Will your Agent’s mission result in an outstanding find or will they meet the fate of the Secret World red shirts? We can’t wait to find out!

RULES:

Your story must tie in with the Agent Network and Season 2 zone (South Africa and/or the next zone).
Maximum 750 words allowed (+/- 10% accepted as well).
Entry to be submitted in Word format.
Each submission has to contain your in game character name and story title.
Only one submission per account is allowed.

To enter, you need to submit your entry to us via email:
Email it to beyondtsw@gmail.com

The contest starts: Thursday, April 27th

The contest ends: Wednesday, May 27th @ midnight EST

Once the contest ends, the judges comprising of Beyond the Veil podcast staff will then vote on the submitted entries.

What does this mean? Only .doc/.docx?

If that is the case: For people who don’t own a copy of Microsoft Word, remember that you can write in Google Docs and use File → Download as → Microsoft Word (.docx) so you are able to comply to the rules.

Leogrim · April 29, 2018, 2:34pm

OpenOffice/LibreOffice should also have the ability to save word documents^^

Antida · April 30, 2018, 8:08pm

Updated the rules to include ‘accepting +/- 10% words’. We won’t be penalizing people for going slightly over

If you’ve submitted your story already, feel free to adjust should you wish so

Antida · May 3, 2018, 12:39am

Leogrim · May 28, 2018, 1:23pm

Can we get a reading of some of your favorite entries?
Every BtV staff member present picks one XD
Or kidnap Andy and let him read it…or Joshua.

Antida · May 28, 2018, 2:33pm

We’ll definitely see what we can do about that.

Watch this space…

Ugh! I forgot to submit something. I blame SuperJenius for getting me all excited about Untold Stories of the Secret World again.
