My english isn't that good for participating.

BAH, what are you talking about??? I understand all your posts just fine. If you have to use babblefish to help translate or get a friend that has better english and help.

Get it down well and I would even proof read it for you to make sure there are no english mistakes.

Hey, you never know who else has entered or what they've entered; whoever it was might have been the best artist since DiVinci, but he forgot to include Left4Dead somewhere in there, so the submission doesn't count.

Moral of the story - it never hurts to try.

I might have a go at drawing something... I suspect I'll fail but it's worth a try

No way! You can piece together 10 sentences for the text based entry!

We already have one entry submitted. Remember, the more over the top the entries are, the better! Feel free to send in entries that use a combination of the above options too.

Aww you swayed me

The Total Gaming Network and CS-Nation Left 4 Dead Mega-Contest!

Total Gaming Network, CS-Nation, and Valve have teamed up to give gamers and fans from TGN and CS-Nation the opportunity to win a ton of great Left 4 Dead goods. We've got Left 4 Dead hats, long sleeve shirts, posters, early access beta keys, and actual copies of Left 4 Dead to give out!

We'll have a third place and second place winner from both TGN and CS-Nation, and one grand prize winner selected from entries across both sites. That means there is a total of FIVE chances to win!

The Contest

There are three ways to enter, so everybody has a fair shot at winning! Simply select to do one of the options below for your chance to win.

Option 1. Write a paragraph of at least ten sentences about how you would prepare for the upcoming Zombie Apocalypse. What will you'll need to survive, what weapons are you're stockpiling, and what precautions are you taking to keep you and your loved ones safe. Where would you go if you were trying to survive?

Be as descriptive as you can. We're looking for creative and interesting answers!

Option 2. Photograph yourself and your buddies getting ready for the Zombie Apocalypse. The closer you look to resembling the Survivors from Left 4 Dead, the better. Even better is if you somehow include any or all of the Boss Infected into the picture.

The more detail and effort seen in the photo, the better your chances are at winning.

Option 3. Draw your vision of the upcoming Zombie Apocalypse. From fire and brimstone, to deathly silence and abandoned streets, and everything in between. What do YOU see when you picture the world coming to an end at the hands of the undead? This will be based on artistic ability, originality, and incorporation of the Left 4 Dead name, or the Left 4 Dead "four fingered salute", or showing of any/all of the Survivors or Boss Infected in the scene.

You are more than welcome to use any medium at your disposal. Photoshop, pencil, crayon, and even MS Paint. Nothing is off limits. You must include the Left 4 Dead name, or the salute, or the Infected Bosses or Survivors in the drawing somehow.

Feel free to combine any of the above options for your entry. Video submissions are also welcome!
