Welcome to the very first Love Live! Wikia's giveaway! With Christmas just around the corner and such a spectacular response from the fundraising drive, we've decided to up our game by starting giveaways! And not just one, but two giveaways simultaneously!

Since the Love Live! Movie Blu-ray Disc has just been released today, I'm sure everyone is looking forward to being able to watch the movie soon if they hadn't been able to do so yet. And what better way to celebrate, other than with the movie-themed merchandise!

Survey Giveaway



Our first half is open to all participants everywhere, so long as they fill in this simple survey. Yes, it really is that simple! As for the prizes, 9 lucky winners will be chosen randomly to receive a keychain of their favorite character!

Keychains are made of stainless steel and measure 39mm by 54mm.

RULES

Only one account per person please! Let's give everyone a fair chance of winning. Winners will be contacted by email. Postage will be paid for by the organizers. Organizers will not be liable for any loss of packages or tax charges for postage. Please also be careful as to whether your country's customs will allow Love Live! items through in the first place.

Essay Giveaway



As for the second half, consider this an essay question! And what we want to know is this:

How has Love Live! changed your life?

All responses MUST be submitted into this thread here to qualify, and here are the prizes again:

Statue of Liberty B2 Poster (500mm by 707mm). SUNNY DAY SONG A2 Poster (420mm by 594mm). Angelic Angel A2 Poster (420mm by 594mm).

Deciding judges: LuciaHunter, Ragnarok6354, Cateisynk

What is the judging criteria, you might ask. Well, that is absolutely secret! ;) So there's no reason to make up tall tales, but tell us honestly and genuinely how Love Live! has changed your life! Whether it inspired you to form your own idol group, or caused you to go broke from spending on LoveCa, we want to know your story!

ENTRY RULES

All entries must have no more than 1500 words and/or 10 pictures. There is no minimum length, brevity is the soul of wit after all. If you are going to insert a picture into your story, please try to use an external image service such as imgur and link it instead. If you absolutely must display it within your text, we ask that you comply strictly with our Image Policy. Any uploaded pictures contravening these rules will be deleted immediately and leave you looking silly with a bunch of broken encoding in the middle of your text. Language must be kept strictly PG in compliance with our rules. The upper limit of what we accept are words like "darn" and "crap". Entries must be in English. Poor grammar and spelling will also tilt our impressions negatively.

GENERAL RULES

Only one account per person please! Let's give everyone a fair chance of winning. Winners will be announced on the Wikia, and it is the winners' responsibility to come into the Wikia chat to PM any of the admins/chat moderators their email address to facilitate prize delivery. Postage will be paid for by the organizers. Organizers will not be liable for any loss of packages or tax charges for postage. Please also be careful as to whether your country's customs will allow Love Live! items through in the first place.

Both giveaways will run from December 15 until December 25, 0000JST, so start writing! Results will be announced on December 28, stay tuned for the announcement post.
