Language Perfect - Let the Games Begin!

Thursday 16 May 2013

Only 4 days until the launch of the Language Perfect World Championships!!! (20-30th May)

200,000 students from
1000 schools in
10 countries are ready to compete, but there can only be
1 winner!

THREE VERY IMPORTANT THINGS:

1. THERE IS STILL TIME TO REGISTER MORE STUDENTS! Click here for instructions. Your school currently has 62 students registered to compete.

2. The official video from the Launch Night in Melbourne is AWESOME and has just been released!!

The FIRST person to email us a screenshot when the video hits each of the following targets will win the corresponding prize:

500 views = $50 iTunes voucher
1000 views = $100 iTunes voucher
2000 views = $200 iTunes voucher

3. The competition starts at 8pm NZ time on Monday 20 May. Click here for alternate time zones.

~ Learn, Compete, Win. Let the Championships begin! ~

I thought the competition started at midnight New Zealand time on May 20, but it's actually 8 pm NZ time (as stated above) so it's 1:00 am on May 20th, Creston Time.  (the 20th is Victoria Day - holiday Monday).  That's when you can start racking up the points!
