THE EASY VERSION: Wear an approved costume (see Official Rules below) to the Captain Slinky Presents Oddmall Emporium of The Weird SPRUNG! Art, Craft & Gaming Show April 20-21 at the Evergreen State Fairgrounds in Monroe, WA. Find the Oddmall Headquarters at the back of the room and have them take your picture, which we will post on our Oddmall social media accounts for all to see. Fill out the official Entry Form (which will ask you for your name, age, costume and a way to contact you if you win) and give it to us. THAT’S IT! No entry fee! No walking out on a stage! No Costume Parade! Just show up in a costume, fill out the form, take a pic, DONE! Winner will be announced and contacted before Thanksgiving!
PRIZES!!!
GRAND PRIZE: The very first ever Oddmall NFT (Nearly Full Tumbler… FULL OF CASH) which has over $120 of real cash money in it! It’s all the money they slipped into Captain Slinky’s G-String last time he was working the Wednesday Afternoon Center Stage at “The Itchy Kitty” Ladies Club, so it’s mostly ones- NO IDEA HOW MUCH IS ACTUALLY IN THERE!!! Enough to make me go “DAAAAAAAANG that’s a lot of sweaty bills!” I may end up having to hand-deliver this to the winner, because shipping it will cost a fortune!
RUNNERS-UP: Three (3) Runners-Up will receive a Captain Slinky Presents Oddmall Emporium of The Weird SPRUNG! Limited Edition T-Shirt featuring exclusive art by local pop-rock sensation Radiant Ruby. Of course, you could also just BUY one of these shirts at the show and TELL everyone you won – we won’t rat you out!
EVERYONE WHO ENTERS: Just show up in a costume and you’ll get a free Limited Edition Captain Slinky Presents Oddmall Emporium of The Weird Creepsmas 3 POSTER featuring the full-color version of that awesome Radiant Ruby artwork! Suitable for framing and/or Paper-Training your new puppy! Radiant Ruby will even be there at Oddmall selling his art, you could probably get him to sign it for you and then 20 years from now people will go “Daaaaaaang, is that from The Before Times?” and you can tell them all about the grand events we used to have before our Ferret Overlords enslaved the human race!
OFFICIAL RULES
1) ONE ENTRY PER PERSON. I know a lot of you could just bring 47 costumes and spend the day entering each and every one of them; please don’t! Multiple entries will be disqualified.
2) APPROVED COSTUMES must be PG-rated at most and adhere to our strict “Nips & Bits” Dress Policy – Nips & Bits must be covered at all times! This is WASHINGTON STATE, after all – you’ll FREEZE! Costume must also include shoes due to health and safety regulations.
3) NO FUNCTIONAL WEAPONS, even if you’ve got a permit! That’s firearms, projectile weapons, swords, knives, etc. – If your costume relies on a weapon, you better make sure that it is OVERLY APPARENT that it is not a real weapon! Nerf Guns, sure… BUT DON’T SHOOT THEM EXCEPT IN DESIGNATED AREAS! A lot of our vendors have delicate, fragile product and/or delicate, fragile dispositions.
4) HARASSMENT POLICY: Harassment includes offensive verbal comments (related to race, gender, sexual orientation, body size, disability, appearance and religion), overly sexual images in public spaces, deliberate intimidation, stalking, harassing photography or recording, sustained disruption of talks or other events, inappropriate physical contact and unwelcome sexual attention. If you feel harassed at Oddmall, please come get Captain Slinky or Mama Slinky so we can nip it in the bud! We want Creepsmas to be fun, family friendly, and about the Oddness. And remember… Cosplay is Not Consent. Don’t be a Dick.
5) PRIZES are: FIRST PRIZE (1) – An NFT (Nearly Full Tumbler) full of at least $120. No idea how much is actually in there. RUNNERS UP (3) – Limited Edition Oddmall Sprung 3 T-Shirt ($15 value). EVERYBODY WHO ENTERS (ALL) – Limited Edition Oddmall Sprung Poster (Priceless!)
6) ELIGIBILITY: This contest is open to all Oddmall attendees and Vendors as long as they follow all the rules. Winner will be chosen by a combination of online votes and the Captain Slinky’s Oddmall Emporium of The Weird crew’s esteemed opinions.
