Winners enjoy a weekend trip to Stockholm to bootcamp with the girlz 0f destruction and learn about PC gaming at the Home of Chrome eSports training facility
VIA Technologies, Inc., leading supplier of high definition PC silicon
for the gaming market, together with VIA Chrome Ambassadors the girlz
0f destruction, today announced an exciting new contest: "Get the Girls
into the Game," with the winning girl spending a weekend at the Home of
Chrome in Sweden with a friend, learning how to play PC games like a
professional while visiting beautiful Stockholm.
Since the
professional PC gaming scene is largely male-dominated, the "Get the
Girls into the Game" contest asks gamers of either gender to nominate a
female friend as a potential winner, explaining why she would benefit
from a weekend of practice with pro gamers. The winning nominee and one
companion (also female) will win a weekend trip to Sweden, travel and
accommodation expenses paid, and receive free gaming tuition from the
girlz 0f destruction plus US$250 pocket money.
"The Home of
Chrome benefits a lot of professional gamers and promotes the industry,
but we wanted reach out to those who might never have had this kind of
experience," said Eliane Hofmann, VIA Marketing Manager. "Everyone who
loves gaming knows someone who they'd like to share that experience
with, and what better way than during a free weekend holiday in Sweden
with real pro gamers."
The "Get the Girls into the Game" contest runs until 10th September at the Home of Chrome website:
www.girlzgaminghouse.comTo
enter, gamers should submit their nominations at the website, and
answer a few short questions and provide a description about why they
feel their girl friends deserve the trip to the Home of Chrome. Entries
will be judged on the basis of humor, originality and genuine gaming
need by a panel composed of VIA staff and girlz 0f destruction team
members. The contest closes on Thursday 10th September, with the prize
weekend at the Home of Chrome taking place on Friday to Sunday, 22nd to
24th September 2006.
