| Greetings, fellow earthlings! After the community's overwhelmingly positive participation in the May Event Poll, we are proud to present to the people of GUN... The Sci-Fi Screenshots Contest That's right folks! Put down your primitive sticks and clubs and hop into your X-Wings, shuttlecraft or hoverboards as we take a trip to the distant future with this months' events. The theme for this contest is Modern Science Fiction, so show us your very best submissions from games like Mass Effect, Dead Space, Portal, Star Craft 2, Halo, Warframe, EVE Online, Destiny, Overwatch, Firefall, Deus Ex, X-COM, No Man's Sky, Star Trek or any of the dozens of Star-Wars games. Avoid titles centered around post-apocalyptic sci-fi, however. Think more phasers and lightsabers, not Fallout or Metro style survival. - READ THESE RULES CAREFULLY:
1. Respect the image capacity This contest has a maximum limit of three (3) submissions per user. If you post more than 3 screenshots, you will be asked to remove your extra submissions and may gain negative rep. Make sure to include all 3 (or less) of your screenshots in one post. Do not make multiple posts in this topic.
2. Respect the theme of the contest Submissions must relate to the Sci-fi genre of games. Post-apocalyptic games are NOT allowed in this contest as they do not coincide with the theme of "Modern Science Fiction". We don't have a list of acceptable games like last time, but please use your best judgement and PM me if you have any questions. Make sure to specify which game your screenshot comes from!
3. Only submit your own images Submissions must be captured by the person submitting the screenshot. Don't post someone else's screenshot and expect to win. Violation of this rule will have you disqualified and possibly sanctioned with negative rep, if not worse.
4. No photoshop or post-editing Graphical changes to the screenshot made in post are not allowed, such as using photoshop or other software for after effects. INGAME filters and graphical changes ARE allowed, but if it is reported and suspected that your image may have been edited OUTSIDE of the game, we may remove your image pending a small investigation.
5. Only use released mods Mods are allowed, and always will be. They're not required, but if you want to, you may. However, only use mods that have been released. No personal, non-released, prototype mods, as it would create an unfair advantage and people would likely vote for the mod, rather than for the screenshot.
6. Only post screenshot submissions here DO NOT post comments about other users posts here. If you want to tell someone you like their screenshot or have any other commentary, send them a PM or save your comments until after the winners are announced. We will open the topic for feedback when the contest is over.
7. Only edit the submissions entry before voting starts Those who wish to change, swap out, or add newer additions into their previously submitted post may do so as much as they like within the submissions period. Once the submission period ends, any new edits will not be taken into consideration.
______________________________________________________
Disclaimer: Due to unforeseen circumstances, these rules may change at any time. IF ANYONE HAS ANY QUESTIONS, DO NOT HESITATE TO PM ME. The Submission period starts today! Hooray! May 2nd - May 16th After the submission period has ended, a team of judges will decide who the winners will be with the winners announced by May 23rd.
Now, onto the real reason anyone does anything nowadays...REWARDS! 5. Everyone who participates receives a guaranteed +1 rep from the organizing committee.
4. The top 5 winners of the screenshot contest will all have their winning submissions featured in our site's group facebook photo albums! https://www.facebook.com/gunetwork/
3. The top 3 winners will be awarded a game key from the staff list of game rewards. https://www.gunetwork.org/t10765-official-screenshot-contests-games-rewards
2. The 1st place winner will also have their screenshot made into a site banner to be added to the rotation that is displayed at the top of the web page.
1. Also, if the 1st place winner is not already a colonial, they will be instantly promoted! (*members who have been demoted due to certain more or less recent grave infractions will not qualify for this reward)I wish everyone that participates good luck, happy posting, and May the 4th be with you! and don't forget to also participate in our other contests: The Sci-Fi Graphics ContestThe Sci-Fi Fan-Fiction Contest_________________ - Can you figure it out?:

| I wish I could just submit my entire Subnautica screenshot folder. I don't really own that much sci fi games so I had to do with some games with sci fi elements in them. Don't worry the screenshots are appropriate I think. I believe exploring alien planets counts right? - Subnautica: Some Alien waters exploration:

| Spent about an hour trying to come up with good ideas for screenshots in Star Wars Battlefront, ended up getting about 15 of them that i liked so narrowing it down to 3 was actually quite difficult but i think these are the best ones i got. - Star Wars Battlefront 2015 - Invasion:
- Star Wars Battlefront 2015 - Dark Lord Of The Sith:
- Star Wars Battlefront 2015 - Dogfight:

| Darn, I was sure I had a chance here. Oh well. Like Hulkscousin said it was a pretty close match. All of the winners look wonderfull and the one I liked the most even won. Pretty funny how I found "Hauki is a kala's" Dogfight screenshot to be way better than his sith lord screenshot. As always I will be looking forward to the next screenshot contest. Hopefully a theme where I have more games at my disposal. _________________ "You're never too young to have a Vietnam flashback" -Julius Caesar - Q: Can you teach me how to rig? - A: Perhaps this will help:

| For the last two weeks I've been doing exams, I decided to stay of GUN for a couple days to revise for my last exam (which was yesterday) and I come back to this. I can't tell you how much this means to me, 'May' seems to be my month congratulations to everyone who participated, There was alot of steep competition this time around, I was sure I wouldn't even place this competition. And in the least arrogant way possible thank you to all the judging comittee for their hard work. Can't wait for the next competition, what ever the theme may be. EDIT. my game choice would be Insurgency btw
