Despite this being The Simpsons’ first ever user-generated promo contest, this type of thing has been done in the past (though not with the same rules, exact editing tools, and prizes). Notably, NBC’s The Office held a user-generated promo contest where people had to create their own video and send it in rather than using pre-selected clips.
More along the lines of what The Simpsons is doing here, the CW network, as a whole, currently has a create-your-own network promo website, where they promise to air promos they like (their site, though, does not allow parts of clips to be edited).
The Simpsons' "Treehouse of Horror XVII” airs on Sunday, November 5 at 8:00 PM (ET/PT).
Read the rules, and then enter the “Treehouse of Horror XVII: Slice-Dice-and-Win” contest.
