September 2008Edit
Create a Diablo III Skill TreeEdit
This contest required fans to create a skill tree, for a known D3 character or by inviting a new character entirely. The two winners took different approaches; one populated a Summoning skill tree for the Witch Doctor, while the other invented a new character called the Flagellant, and mapped out a number of skills for him to use.
See the Skill Tree Contest Page for the full rules, the winning entries, and more.
LOL Diablo ContestEdit
Inspired by lolcats, Diii.net started a competition to add "loldiablo" comments on pictures. Diablo fans were asked to take any Diablo picture, add a caption and then upload it to the contest gallery.

Second Chance Readers' Vote Fan Art ContestEdit
As a follow-up to the 'Fan Art and 11-Word Story Contest' that Diii.net ran in August, Ben Boos felt awful for having to turn down great art, so he dug into his personal supply and found two more advance copies of his book 'Swords' for the Diii.net fan artists to win. This time, the fans of Diablo will have to pick which 2 out of the 10 honourable mentions listed will win!
As an update to this contest, Ben Boos had a 3rd book as Flux said here on the second page of the Swords Fan Art Contest: Second Chance Vote, post.
