60s & 70s American & British Crime Drama Movies Upload Contest

Our last contest ended up in a tie for the top uploader spot, with each uploader getting to choose their own contest theme. By a technicality, Duke73 was able to go first this time around and his chosen theme is American or British Crime Drama Movies from the 1960s and 1970s. Surely lots of classics there that we are missing in our library. With a minimum rating threshold for this contest expect the quality of the available movies pool to be above average. Entries submitted will be granted Freeleech and Doubleseed like before so be sure to take advantage of it and watch the ones that catch your eye when you get some free time.

With all that said, these are the rules for the contest:

The contest is limited to the Movies category.
The movie's release date must be from the decades of 1960 or 1970.
The movie's country of origin must be either the USA or the UK.
The movie's genres must include (but not limited to) Crime, and Drama in at least one popular informational website (IMDb, TMDB, Wikipedia, etc.) and the movie's page from such website must be added to the Info section in the Description in the Torrent Upload form.
The movie's IMDb rating must be 6.0 or higher.
The torrents must be tagged at the very least with the crime and drama tags, along the corresponding decade tag, 1960s or 1970s, depending.
All other standard torrent upload rules apply.
Only torrents uploaded after the publication of this announcement count for the contest.
Once you have uploaded your torrent(s) reply to the forum thread associated to this announcement to submit your entries for the contest. Group the links to your torrents in a single post, editing your post as necessary. If you would like to participate anonymously send us the links to your torrents in a Staff PM before the contest ends.

The rewards:

Upload at least 5 staff-approved torrents to receive a badge* to commemorate your participation in the contest.
Upload at least 10 staff-approved torrents to receive 20 tokens* and personal site-wide Freeleech for 1 week*.
The uploader with the most torrents approved gets to decide one of the two themes of the next contest that will take place after puellapurpura's. The top uploader of puellapurpura's contest will decide the other theme. Both themes will run in parallel, with participants able to upload torrents that fit one theme or the other, non-exclusively. To avoid another tie for top uploader, the winner will be the uploader that reached the tied total first.
All staff-approved torrents will receive Freeleech and Doubleseed status once approved and will keep that status for a week after the contest ends. The Freeleech only applies to torrents that wouldn't have gained Freeleech status automatically.

* These rewards will be given once the contest has ended.


The contest will last until the end of December 7th.
