Darv isn't around now so I guess I have to update here.
CCP has locked the second thread as well with the following explanation:

Hello Revan Neferis,
First of all, please let me say that we understand how much time and effort went into the preparation of this event. However, we would ask you to use the Events & Gatherings forum section to run it. While we understand the implications related to the rules of your contest, Events & Gatherings is the proper place for all events – including the in-game and/or role-playing ones.
Thank you for your understanding.
Should you wish to create a new thread in the Events & Gatherings forum section instead of the existing one, please feel free to do so. We will lock the old one at your convenience.

I guess it means that we can't do In character events at IGS anymore.
Any of you were communicated of this new policy? Neither did I, thank you very much.
No, I will not host Role Play events at ooc forums.
I have opened a discussion on eve general to check this out
