At last, the MiseTings Coldsnap article competition has come to an end. The competition was announced a little earlier than usual, about a month before the actual release of the set. Submissions were accepted until July 21, with some particularly excellent articles sent in during the last week of competition. While many articles, as expected, focused on the unique history of Cold Snap and the Ice Age block, others, including the eventual winner, did not.

If your submission didn't get posted, don't get discouraged; you are not alone. Out of approximately 20 submissions, a little more than half made it through the cutting block. If you have the courage, please take your article and post it to the MiseTings Forums and we will try to give you some advice on how to strengthen your articles. Perhaps next time you will be the one walking home with a box. ;)

The Winner Is…

Sketches: Engraved Outcropping - paz

Paz will receive a sealed box of Coldsnap for his efforts. For those people at home keeping score, Paz won our last competition as well, so this is now officially a winning streak.
