Like the Abzorbaloff! Actually, the Abzorbaloff was an okay idea, but still it did feel like they chose the youngest one to be the winner because he was the youngest.

I don't understand why a 9 year old would think of that. It's a awesome idea but it kind of scares me his imagnation works that way.

this is what happens when alot of people enter a contest that brings me back when Warner Bros., Wizards of the Coast and 4Kraps Enterkrapment did a similar event, only with Pokemon cards.
i wonder if.... (thinks of same contest, only with Chaotic cards involved)

i always find it hard to trust contests like this. i mean it's cool to think a kid draws this good, but at the same time there's no way of determining how many of them had "Help".

Too bad the card they put the art on will probubly just be some forgotten yellow common card with 500 ATK.

I entered a Welsh's Jelly contest in the second grade where contestants had to draw a picture of themselves in their favorite place and include Pikachu somewhere in the picture. I knew I wouldn't be able to compete with ten year olds in the 7-10 age category, so I submitted my entry in my little sister's name in the 3-6 group. And you know what?

I won the grand prize. It was a purple Gameboy Color. I still have it, too, even though I sold all of my Gameboy Color games a long time ago. I even didn't feel guilty or anything knowing that I had cheated; I was just too proud of how sneaky I was to care.

I liked the winner's art for the oldest age category. It looks like it could have a really good effect. But like Ninja337 said:

That is definitely a possibility. I actually play the Yu-Gi-oh! TCG occasionally for fun, and it's a little bit of a shame that the creator isn't allowed to think up an effect for it, let alone its stats and attributes.
