General rules

1. Try not to swear. We know it's hard at times, but an "effing" instead of the actual thing would suffice, for example.

2. Do not bash other members, other teams, actors, characters etc. You have a right to your opinion, but leave it for discussion posts. Also, competition is great, but not when it's poisonous.

3. Everyone is required to participate in at least one challenge every 2 weeks. This means challenge - voting doesn't count. Even if you can't write a drabble, you can make a graphic, even if you can't make a graphic there will always be some other kind of game. At least try. If you don't participate 2 weeks in a row, you'll get a warning from your team leader; if you still don't meet the participation quota, you'll be off the team and off the comm. No exceptions. As long as there is something going on, you will have to participate.

4. The team leaders are the ones who determine who will be kicked out of the community. However, they don't just kick people off the teams out of spite or because they don't like your default icon; there will be reasons, be it inactivity or inappropriate behavior. The decision will always go through me, so if you're really kicked out, trust us: There will have been a reason.

5. You can go on a hiatus for a total of three weeks. If it's longer than that, you will have to reapply.

6. For the love of Abed, have fun!

Team rules

1. If you want to leave the community, write me and your team leader a PM.

2. If you want to change teams, PM me and your team leader with the reasons, but know right now that unless you plead a very, very, extremely good case, team changes will be very unlikely.

3. In the eventuality that you do get to change teams, you only get to do so once, so choose wisely.

4. Most of the challenges require participation from the members and not the team as a whole but there might be some which require exactly that, so be good to your team and they'll be good to you.

5. When you participate in a challenge, don't forget to add your team's name: In the subject line, in the submission, or with a signature banner. Failure to do so will result in zero points.

Points rules

1. Every challenge/task gives certain amount of points for participation, normally that will be 10 points.

2. For the winners there are bonus points determined by me and the Team Leaders, according to the difficulty of the challenge.

3. Points are allocated after the challenge/task is over; don't ask why the points of your team haven't changed if the challenge is still on.

4. Every three months the battle (which we will call the Semester) will be over and there will be a winner from the teams. After that everything will go back to the beginning and the teams will have zero points and so on.

I'll be something like a judge. Everything that will go on in community_land will go through the Team Leaders, including voting. I will be impartial when I need to be, but I'm not intending on having any less fun than all of you, so I don't intend to be a bitch.

Additionally, who hosts a challenge cannot vote for it, and in certain types of games, cannot participate either (because they will obviously have the answers!).

This whole thing was made based loosely (and not) on what i_will_dare_89 did with legendland, so a huge thank you to her and everyone else involved in that awesome comm.
