How to Participate
You can participate in the contest by submitting your original hat design(s) based on the theme “Fan-omenon” through the Angry Birds 2 9th Anniversary Community Hat Set page. You will also need to include your contact details and Player ID when submitting your designs so that we are able to contact you in case you win. The hat designs can be designed and submitted for the following birds:
- Red
- Bomb
- Blues
- Terence
- Matilda
- Stella
- Leonard
- Melody
All formats are accepted when submitted through the link above (drawing, digital art, sketches, etc.). There is no limit to how many designs you can submit, but each must be unique and created by you. The submissions must be made during the Campaign Period as stated above.
Selecting Winners and Communication
After the submission period ends, we will select two semifinalists for each bird hat. Semifinalists will be selected based on creativity, theme relevance, and overall aesthetic appeal of their designs from all eligible entries.
Players will then have the opportunity to vote for their favourite designs on the official Rovio Discord Server. Having a valid Discord account and being a member of our Discord server is required to participate in the voting process.
Winners will be chosen based on the public votes. The designs with the highest total votes will be declared the winners and your chances of winning will depend on the number of eligible entries and results of the vote.
We will notify all semifinalists via email and Piggy Mail in the Angry Birds 2 game once they have been selected. All final winners will be contacted the same way once the contest ends.
If we have reason to suspect a fraudulent entry or other breach of these rules by a participant (e.g. entries made by automated or otherwise deceptive means), we reserve the right to reject such fraudulent participation. If we are unable to contact a winner within 15 days, we reserve the right to choose a new winner.
Shipping and Taxes
We will send the prizes to winners as soon as is practicable after the campaign has ended. Rovio will pay for the necessary shipping costs, if any. You are responsible for any customs and tax consequences related to your receipt of a prize.
