The KYBO Kontest
All right, all right, so we've actually held a contest before, and that sort of nullifies the superlative, negating this as THE KYBO contest.  But like, that last contest was a COVER contest, and there were a limited number of winners (four).  This contest is nothing like that.

EVERYONE can win.

And also, unlike the last contest, with THIS contest (or, "kontest") you get a prize, other than just your art appearing on a cover of The KYBO.
A DECENT prize.
A WORTHY prize . . .

What you get, you see, is every single issue of The KYBO ever made.
Not bad, eh?
The Skinny
(an explanation)
RESTRICTIONS: Kay, well, FIRST of all, you've got to be a subscriber to The KYBO.  If you're not  a subscriber to The KYBO, you can just stop reading, check out the rest of our site, become dazzled with our amazingness,  become a subscriber, and then get back to this page to find out about this contest.

RULES:  Get more people to subscribe to The KYBO.

EXPLANATION OF THE RULES: See, it's not like we're dying for subscribers; we have quite a few. It's just that we go through so much effort to bring the senior Scouting and Guiding world a high-quality magazine every couple months, and we don't want it to go to waste on just a percentage of the populace. We want EVERYONE to get a subscription!

WHAT YOU WIN:

Well, if you get just ONE more person to subscribe to The KYBO (and honestly, how hard could that be?  like, you show them a sample issue, and they're probably already BEGGING to get a subscription if they don't have one already) you win:
The 1999 KYBO Komic Kollection, featuring every comic that appeared in The KYBO in 1999, plus every comic that appeared on our website, plus a whack of bonus comics only available in the Kollection. It all comes in a neat little booklet with glossy covers, and an introduction from Dave and Steve.  Neat, eh?  Well, it can be yours!

Anyway, if you get just
TWO more people to subscribe to The KYBO, (in addition to already having acquired the above prize,) you get:
An Issue of The KYBO! But not just any issue . . . you get a random selection of our low-printed issues (ones that few people had seen at the time) of The KYBO, issue One, Two or Three!  How cool would that be for you to strut around, telling all your Rover or Ranger or Venturer friends that you got The KYBO, issue ONE!!!!!!???

So yeah, you get all that stuff if you can get two people to subscribe.  However, if you can get
Three people to subscribe to The KYBO, you get all of that stuff, and:
Your KYBO subscription extended for two months! And yeah, sure, that only actually works out to one measly issue, but this is an issue of The KYBO we're talking about here!  Not just some "newsletter" or something.  Man.  Anyway, you were gonna re-subscribe anyway, and this way you save a couple of bucks.

Now four people. 
You get four new people to subscribe to The KYBO, and you're doing us a favour!  As such, for those of you who do get four more people to subscribe to The KYBO (and bear in mind that you DO have quite a bit of time to accomplish this honourable feat) we've got something very special for you, something we've made JUST for you:
Too Hot For The KYBO! This is a KYBO Special, Limited Edition Issue where we've printed all the material that has been submitted or proposed to us over the years that we've so far deemed too racy, or controversial, or just too obscene to print in The KYBO! There's quite a bit of special material composed JUST for this issue as well (our writers had a field day when we proposed it to them, resulting in a few other missed deadlines, but we won't talk about that).  Anyway, there's very few copies of this sucker in print, so we're going to make you WORK in order to get one!  (ps: it'll be worth it!)  Everyone who manages to get four new people to subscribe to The KYBO gets this baby, plus all the above prizes as well.

Five peopl
e wins for you the Grand Prize! This is your goal. We want everyone who already has a subscription to The KYBO to get just five more of their friends or acquaintances to subscribe! This is the achievement we're hoping everyone will strive for who attempts this contest. This is what you get if you do:
Every damn KYBO issue ever made!
No shit.  Every one.  Every single solitary one.  INCLUDING the "Too Hot For The KYBO" issue! But not only that either!  You ALSO get over TWENTY select KYBO bonuses:
All KYBO Centerfolds, BOTH KYBO Komic Kollections, BOTH Full-Colour KYBO Kondoms, KYBO Mouthwash, FIVE KYBO Posters, and some new never-before released Kollectible KYBO Stickers.
Pretty sweet, eh?
Yeah, not bad.
However, we'll ALSO give you (
no kidding), a half-year, three-issue extension to your KYBO subscription.

HOLY FUCK, eh?
yeah, we know.
we're benevolent that way.
Also, we kinda like the idea of everyone having their own private KYBO library where they can look back on events and stuff that have happened over the years and admire all our hard work.  Thoughts like that make us happy.

Deadline:
This offer ends May 31/2001.  See?  That's tons of time. You can do it!

How You Do It: Well, basically all you've got to do is get your friends to subscribe. When they've decided they want a subscription and are sending us their cheque for twenty dollars (made out to The KYBO), just get them to include a little note indicating who it was that turned them on to The KYBO.  We'll keep track of how many people you've gotten to subscribe for us, and mail you your prizes correspondingly.  It's that easy!  Make sure they include their own address though, so we know where to send their subscription.

To summarize:
Get people to send us a) a cheque for twenty dollars for a one-year subscription, made out to The KYBO, b)
your name, so we know who to attribute the new subscriber to, and c) their mailing address.
get them to send it all to:
The KYBO
151 Cedarvale Ave
Toronto ON
M4C 4J9
