|  Creative Writing Contest - AMD/ATI
I recently found a contest on the AMD/ATI website. Thought I'd share it with everyone.
The Grand Prize is a $3,899 Smooth Creations PC. Other prizes are ATI video cards. Who is ATI agent Ruby? Write a short biography (250 words max) of Agent Ruby that describes how she became who she is. 5 finalists will be put to a vote on this site, and one will win the smooth creations grand prize.
Sign up here - My personal link that helps give me more entries. AMD RUBY - Welcome!
Or : ( sign up here. AMD RUBY - Welcome! Good luck and thanks in advance if you sign up through my link. |

The Ruby Short Story Contest and Sweepstakes (“The Promotion”) is open only to legal residents of the United States (including District of Colombia) and Canada (void in Quebec)
| Why does just about every contest from every company do this?

That's for adding that apok. That's helpful.
I've got a couple of drafts. I like 1 of them. Hopefully it's good enough to pwn with $3899 worth of PC components and accessories.
