Challenge Info & Guidelines

The Challenge Games

Updated!

Ready to start or participate in your own one-on-one battle? Well welcome to the Challenge Games! The CG is a more competitive challenge section where you can go head to head against other members in the fields of writing, coding, and graphics. A winner is then determined by members, making the competition a completely member ran operation.

Before participating please make sure to read all the rules and guidelines. These will help you better understand the Challenge Games, and what you can/can't do.

Guidelines

• Please fill out the required form completely when starting a new battle. A form must be posted in every battle you create.
• Bumping is not allowed. You may add a link to your battle in your signature etc.
• Please avoid offensive material. Any battle that goes against the general rules of the 'D will be removed.
• Make sure to vote. Voting not only help others in determining a winner, but it can help your battle as well.
• Make sure to start all topics with the name of your battle (Ex: 'The Fandom Battle').
• All challenges must be completed within three weeks.

Things To Remember

• Voting polls should last for 4 days.
• Winners will only be spotlighted for a week.
• Once you win a challenge, you will be added to the 'winners pool' in order by which the challenge you participated in ended. Please keep this in mind as we only spotlight one winner at a time.
• Once your battle ends you should create your own voting for your challenge. We recommend looking through the voting section in order to see how others have done it.
• Once your voting poll is done please make sure to PM one of the coding, graphics, or writing staff with the name of your challenge as well as who won the challenge.
• After winning, make sure to visit the 'awards' section to see if you qualify for a Challenge Champion badge.

I have a question

Do we vote after each round or are all rounds considered in voting? I know we don't need to have multiple rounds but I really like the idea, I just think the point would be lost if in the end they are all voted on at once because then why make it multiple rounds you know? So yeah, just asking for some clearing up.

Well we can make it multiple rounds voting though the voting will still take place in one thread.

So the voting will look like:

Name | Round 1 √
Name | Round 1
Name | Round 1

Name | Round 2 √
Name | Round 2
Name | Round 2

Name | Round 3
Name | Round 3
Name | Round 3 √

So the first person would win based on all three rounds voted on. :D

Hmm. Might be more interesting then to do a series of individual one-round challenges. Thank you for answering, though .
