INVOICES
Upon entry, you will receive an automated draft invoice for your convenience. The draft invoice can be submitted to your finance department to generate a purchase order number that can appear by request on the formal invoice you will receive for accounts payable after the entry has been manually checked for errors.
If in the interest of time you submit the draft invoice to your finance department right away, any disqualifications found later can be offset by choosing a refund or a different creative/technical category.
When submitting an official entry, providing a gmail, yahoo, or similar email is not recommended to ensure your entry is officially accepted. Admin makes the final decision on all genre and franchise classifications; if a game’s title or content refers to any pre-existing related or unrelated franchise, character, or story, the presumption is that the game is a franchise.
