| + | The '''2007 Elite Summer Contest''' was known as ''New Blood Rising''. 2007 differed from the previous four [[Elite Summer Contest]]s in that: |
| + | |
| + | * Contestants were not ranked by seeds. |
| + | * Four Divisions gave the new generation a great opportunity to make the field. |
| + | * Randomly-placed matchups disallowed vote rallying. |
| + | |
| + | The Contest kicked off on '''Friday, June 1st of 2007'''. To vote, Eliters sent the name of their daily choice to [[Ngamer]] over AOL Instant Messenger at '''ImNgamer''', or mailed their choice to '''ngamer AT gmail DOT com'''. To be eligible to vote, one of four conditions had to be met: |
| + | |
| + | * Membership in the [[Goldeneye]] or [[Perfect Dark]] Elites. |
| + | * Membership in [[TimeSplitters 2]], [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]], or any other [[NGC-Elites]] ranking. |
| + | * 100 posts on [[The Elite]] message boards. |
| + | * 20 hours logged in [http://the-elite.net/chat.html The Elite Chatroom]. |
| + | |
| + | Those not sure of their eligibility contacted Ngamer about their official status. |
