IDLE IDOL Photo Contest! Win a copy of the book & other goodies!
June 22, 2010

From the official IDLE IDOL website + authors Edward and John Harrison:
Idle Idol: The Japanese Mascot is officially out and to celebrate we’re offering the chance to win a copy of the book. All you have to do is take a photo of yourself or a friend with your favorite mascot. The entries will be judged by ourselves (the authors Edward Harrison and John Harrison) based on the awesomeness and bizarreness of the mascot and how cool the pose of the individual is.

THE PRIZES:
1st Prize: A signed copy of the book with a goody bag including Kero-chan and Koro-chan finger puppets, a Satoko-chan mobile phone strap and two badge sets.
2nd prize: A signed copy of the book with a badge set.
3rd prize: A badge set of your choice.
HOW TO ENTER:
There are four different ways to enter. Please also let us know where the photo was taken when submitting your entry.
1. Email your photos to comp@idleidol.net.
2. Join the Idle Idol facebook group and add your photo.
3. Upload your photo to flickr, post it to the Idle Idol flickr group and tag it with “idleidol”.
4. Follow whatwhatjohn or whatwhated (and don’t forget to add MarkBattyPub while you’re at it!) on Twitter and include a link to your photo along with #idleidol in your tweet.
We look forward to seeing your photos! Winners will be announced on the July 22nd and the winning entries will be displayed on the IDLE IDOL and Mark Batty Publisher website!
