Under 18 WPASADI Participation

[Maleficent2]

Hello everyone!

I know that there have been some disappointed people regarding the restriction of people under the age of 18 playing WPASADI. I can assure you that we were extremely disappointed as well when we found out that we had no way around the restriction.

There are laws that govern the awarding of prizes of this value and type to someone under the age of 18. We tried to see if there was a way we could get it to work, but unfortunately we couldn't find a way.

We had several teens express interest in playing along without the prizes. We talked about this behind the scenes and figured it wouldn't be a problem but we wanted to give you all *some* type of reward along the way, even if it is just a virtual reward. If you read my announcement below, you will see what we are doing. We hope that those of you that were interested in playing the game for the creative challenge will apply to join!

Good evening friends!

I have good news (which some of you may already have heard ) We were able to get the registration process for Non-US and Under 18 DISers interested in playing Extreme WPASADI finalized!

If you follow this link:

Under 18 yrs old Application

You will find the application you will need to submit. If you have any trouble with the link, the application can be found at the bottom of the WPASADI webpage that you reach when clicking on the logo on top of the message boards.

Since you will not be eligible to play for the prizes that have a monetary value due to international contest laws, we have come up with a little something for you to play for...

Something we have never done before but we know people wish they could do...

Have you ever seen something said on the DIS by another poster that you thought to yourself "If I was the Tag Fairy...."

Well, let me introduce you to "The Tag Genie". The Tag Genie will be granting people 3 tag wishes. You have 3 days to make your wishes and it is totally up to you to decide how to use them.

You can use them on yourself.. do you want to add your own tag? Change the color of your tag? Add a smilie to your tag? Make your tag scroll? Those are all wishes the Genie can grant to you.

Also, you may grant these tag wishes to others on the board. Know someone that really deserves a tag? The Genie will tag them with what you wish (Within board guidelines of course!) This will be your turn to make others smile the way the Tag Fairy does.

Sound like fun?

How do you win a visit from the Genie? Well the Genie will be watching you all closely looking for great sportsmanship, work above and beyond your assignment and other things he thinks deserves a "poof"

Also, there will be a way that every member of your team will win a chance to win 3 tag wishes. The hosts will set a goal for your contest entry. If you meet the goal, you all win a "poof" from the Genie. An example of the goal would be "Finish within 2 points of the winning team". Maybe the Genie will have more wishes for you if your team comes out on top during a challenge - even beating all the main game teams! (which at one point may be quite a few teams! But I've seen you guys work.. you can do it!)

Otherwise, you will all be playing along with the same challenges, same rules, and same time schedule - you will just be competing on two levels - beat the goals set by the hosts to win the wishes, and come out on top of all the Genie teams (Non-US residents and Teens) so that you do not have to send anyone home in Tribal Council.

I'm glad we were able to find a way to include all of you in Extreme WPASADI. I wish it could have worked out that we could reward you the real prizes, but we do hope you will have fun playing "tag fairy".

If you have any questions, by all means, please feel free to PM me. Details on how the Genie will work will come once the teams are assigned. Also, please remember that like we said with the other registration, not everyone will be able to be assigned to teams due to limited space and time constraints. Please be sure to fill out your applications carefully because we will be using it to pick "just the right people"!

Just thought our VMKers would like to see this! Good Luck all!
