Guess the Author/Artist contest now officially open!
Have you been guessing along throughout the fest? Or do you just have suspicions that you've been keeping to yourself?
Either way, it's time to get all your guesses together and maybe throw in a few wild stabs in the dark, because it's time for our very first official McShep Match Guess the Author/Artist contest!
You can see the entry form at Googledocs here, and you can download it from there as Excel (no other format please), although as it doesn't always keep the formatting we'd prefer it if you download from our McShep Match site as a spreadsheet or simple text file. Please right click and 'Save as' to download.
Once you have your file you need to replace the 'enter your guess here' text associated with each prompt with your guess. Don't forget you can find all our team members listed here as well as check up on your previous guesses if you made any during posting. Please be careful not to change the order or position of any of the prompts shown as it will make scoring very difficult.
Please note that each copy of the spreadsheet/file has enough spaces to guess the prompts for ONE team, so if you want to guess the entrants on both teams you will need to fill out two copies. This means, of course, that if you're participating the fest as a writer or artist you can enter guesses for the opposing team. The important part: when you email your files to us you need to put the name of the team you are guessing in the subject of your mail.
Send your completed entries to: mcshep_match@refugeeblues.com. They need to reach us by the time polls close on Tuesday 29th September, but the sooner you get them in, the better.
You don't need to fill out all boxes if you have no clue at all, but you might as well take a wild guess - there are prizes at stake, after all!
We will be awarding two main prizes to the people who have the most correct guesses for each team - they will be able to submit a prompt for a volunteer from the team to write or draw them the prize of their choice.
Our teams have also been hard at work while we've been posting their fest entries creating some smaller prizes for those who have the most correct guesses on each row of the spreadsheet. If you are using the text file version, it is the most correct guesses for each group of prompts shown.
All winners will be announced on Friday 2nd October.
Good luck!
