Negaduck: I see you found the crumb. I knew you'd never notice the huge flag.
Oh for the love of Mike... next time, I'll read the whole thread instead of stopping at the first pic and heading there for the screenshot... XD

You've got another problem, Orion: Your cap is too large. One of the rules is to keep the cap at 800x500 or below.

I can see this will be the perfect contest for people who have full-time weekday jobs

Believe it or not, this went down right on top of my lunch break. I grabbed my laptop, bolted out the door and drove down to Dunkin for their free wifi, logged in, snapped the cap and uploaded and posted. Then I ate a maple glazed donut and came back to the office.

Congratulations Smash_Zone you are today's winner!
Original Screenshot -
My apologies to Sultry Siren, Had you added the quote into your original post before Smash_Zone posted his correct entry (with quote included) you would have won.
Better luck next time!
This is a good reminder for everyone. Make sure that quote is included prior to posting your entry.
Boy howdy, Niv's a stickler for precision. Guess I'll have to do better next time. Oh well.
Congrats Smash!

Yes I am
Rules:
1. Your post must contain a screenshot of the location depicted in the initial contest post, but with your character in the place of Niviene
As an unbiased observer, I thought SultrySiren did a much better job, especially with character position and framing. And her picture was the correct size, and submitted earlier as well. No offense.

I didn't originally include it because I figured someone else had already won. Lesson learned!!

My favorite statue in the game. Sometimes I stop and salute it as I pass it by just for grins. Anyone who has read the comic books would know why. Great story. One of my toons is a grandson of Cyrus Thompson. Very proud of that one. He's fun to roleplay.
How well do you know your City of Heroes/Villains locations?
Hello, hello and welcome to Niviene's Screenshot the Spot forum game where every Wednesday until 4pm Pacific Time (7:00 PM Eastern Time / 12:00 PM GMT / 1:00 Central European Time) you can win your choice of a costume code from past Con seasons and the Forum Title "Screenshot Spotter [date]".
The object of this game is to be the first to 1). Figure out the location in-game depicted in the screenshot and 2). Post a screenshot that is closest to the one I have posted , with your own character in the place of Niviene. Sounds easy right? Well there's a catch. The location isn't going to be as obvious as you might think so make sure you pay close attention to the picture details and hints.
The Pictures will start out masked and more and more of the image will be revealed as time goes on as long as no one has correctly identified the location by posting their own screenshot. If by the end of the day no one has identified the location, the full picture will be revealed and no one will win for that week (BOOOOOOO!).
Rules:
1. Your post must contain a screenshot of the location depicted in the initial contest post, but with your character in the place of Niviene
2. Screenshots must remain less than 800px X 500px to qualify.
3. UI needs to be turned off (Menu -> Options -> Keymapping -> scroll to bottom under other "Toggle Screenshot UI")
4. Reply in the official City of Heroes® forum (http://boards.cityofheroes.com/) thread created for each weekly “Screenshot The Spot” Contest with your screenshot submission.
5. Your reply must contain a single screenshot. Entries with more than 1 screenshot will be disqualified.
6. Your submission must also contain the following statement. Please note that your submission will be disqualified if this statement is not present in your post:
8. Please note, only 1 (one) entry per forum account will be accepted. If you post a second time, you'll get disqualified, so make your one entry count!
9. Entries must conform to the Official City of Heroes Message Forum Rules and Guidelines.
10. If you win the City of Heroes® Screenshot The Spot Contest one week, you are not eligible to do so again for the next 8 weeks. This is to allow other people the opportunity to win. Please be courteous to others and refrain from participating during the weeks you are not eligible to win.
