Guitar Hero Metallica giveaway contest!

You pick what game system version you win!
We are giving away 1 Guitar Hero Metallica packages. Last month many said they wanted to pick the game system version after they won. So we have continued this plan for our March contest.

How you earn “points” to win:
As always, you earn “sins” (points) for submitting links to stories about hard rock, classic rock, metal, punk, industrial, glam, goth, grunge, grindcore, hardcore, metalcore, etc. It’s not just metal! For example, we think THIS VIDEO is Heavy As Hell. Voting for stories others submit also gets you “sins”. The third method of getting “sins” is to comment on submissions others have made. Pretty much just be active on the site. The point of the site is to be social, so make sure and “friend” users with the same musical tastes as you have. Feel free to invite friends, too.

Three Hints on how to win:

• If someone was to just vote for every story in the upcoming section that they think deserves a vote, they could have a good chance with that alone. It’s just that easy, people!
• Voting for other people’s stories can only help your chances of winning.
• If you don’t vote for other people’s stories it can really hurt your chances in this contest.

The first user chart means nothing:
We used to give the prize away to the top users of all time. Last month we gave the prizes away to the top 3 users of the month. This month we are giving one prize to the top user of the month. So that first chart means nothing really. Eventually we will give the Top Users Of The Month chart it’s own page, but until then please scroll down to the chart that counts most! We hope this makes new users feel more welcome.

How can you tell if you are winning?
Go to the Top Ten Users Chart link at the bottom of every page. The first chart is ranking users overall and has nothing to do with this contest. For the rest of the month, the important chart is the one below that. It’s the one that says “Top 10 Users During the Latest Contest” in big bold letters.

Winner will be announced April 1st.
Ok, we understand that this is also April Fools Day. So please trust us that there will be no April Fools joke connected to this contest. Your trust is too important to the success of this site. Once we receive said winner’s address the “Guitar Hero Metallica” package will be sent out to them. We are very sorry, but only winners from the United States are eligible due to legal reasons. Users worldwide are welcome to be a part of the site, but this contest has to be for U.S. residents only. Of course any user suspected of cheating, gaming the system, or being involved in activity that could harm the site or it’s users may be banned. Being banned from this site will disqualify you from this and any contest.

Only guitar based music stories win Guitar Hero prize!
So why no rap? Rap doesn’t use guitars. We are giving away a Guitar Hero Metallica package. Not a beat box hero game. We want to celebrate people who actually play instruments. This is what we are passionate about. This site was started to talk about hard rock, classic rock, metal, punk, industrial, glam, goth, grunge, grindcore, hardcore, metalcore, etc. No rap, rapcore, dance music, techno, hip hop, pop, or country. So we strongly discourage those styles. Now before thinking there are racial reasons for us not liking rap, please look up the bands God Forbid, Bad Brains, Kings X, & S2C. I’m pretty sure the admins of this site have not only voted up stories of black artists on this site, but submitted them as well. It’s not about color, it’s about the music!

To be clear, rap and techno do NOT count for this (or any) contest at this site. This has always been the case with this site and it always will be.
