You have the following options:

OPTION 1: Visions and Dreams
You had a vision or a dream about the apocalypse, you need to warn us, describe what happened. Remember; it's NOT yet happening, it's a vision!

OPTION 2: Angels
Angels announce the end. They reveal to earth and humans. They advice us to prepare for the end. They describe what's going to happen.

OPTION 3: Future
How you believe this world will end. How you believe God will take justice in his hands in a soon or very far away future.

OPTION 4: Imagery
Use fantastic imagery. Use mystery. Illustrate living creatures like beasts. Use some mystical symbolism (enigmas) Metaphors. Create a prophecy of the end.

OPTION 5: Reality
You're living the apocalypse, you're watching everyone die. You are FEELING IT.

    CONTESTANTS

    people with score from 75 up will go in the finalist list. But only 10 can be in the finalist list unless theres a tie. If more than 10 people have a 75+ i will start with the 80+
