Hey there!

We're happy to announce that Cheat and Cheater of the month will continue for August too. But this time, it'll be slightly different since we have the new Android section!

Prizes
- Cheat of The Month Prize: $40 - This can be redeemed into Gift Cards or PayPal money.
* Cheat of The Month prize goes to the most popular cheat posted by the Cheater during this month.

- Cheater of The Month Prize: $35 - This can be redeemed into Gift Cards or PayPal money.
* Cheater of The Month prize goes to the Cheater who posted the most cheats during this month.



How will the Cheat and Cheater of The Month be chosen?

Cheat of The Month will be chosen based on the amount of replies and thanks a topic has. We will add the replies and thanks count together and compare it to other popular hack topics to see which one is more popular.

But, since ViP Section has no thanks button it would be a bit unfair so, the counting will be tweaked a bit like this:

Each reply in the ViP Section/VIP APK Hacks & Mods counts as 2 replies.
Each reply/thanks in the Cydia Substrate Cheats/Android APK Mods section counts as 1.
Each reply/thanks in No Jailbreak Cheats/DIY Cheats/Other Cheats/Do-It-Yourself Android Mods counts as 0.5.


Cheater of The Month will be chosen based on the amount of cheats the Cheater has posted during this month.

Each reply in the ViP Section/VIP APK Hacks & Mods counts as 2 replies.
Each reply/thanks in the Cydia Substrate Cheats/Android APK Mods section counts as 1.
Each Topic in No Jailbreak Cheats/DIY Cheats/Other Cheats/Do-It-Yourself Android Mods counts as 0.5.

Note: If the staff deems that the cheat posted in ViP is not ViP Material (an easily made cheat or can be easily duplicated by others) then we will move it to the free sections.

* Accounts Section and LocalIAPStore/iAPCrazy/Freedom or similar topics are not included in CCOTM. *


Requirements?
- Leeching/Posting Cheats which aren't made by you will not count.
- Asking for replies to topics or thanks is not allowed.
- Spamming inside a topic is also not allowed.
- The hack must be working for all Devices. Thinning binary counts.
- More requirements may be added without notice.


The winners will be chosen after rounding up all the hacks at the end this month.

Good luck to everyone!
