Rules
Basic rules
1. No swearing, you can censor it but it still best if you just don't swear in the community. This way it will be a nicer place for everyone.
2. No bashing of other members, other teams, actors, characters etc. Everyone has the right to have an opinion, just don't try force yours on anyone else.
3. Everyone is required to participate in at least one challenge every two weeks. Please note that is a challenge, not voting. Most of the time there is three challenges open, so even if you are unable to make graphics and write, you can still enter the games. If you don't participate two weeks in a row, you'll get a warning from your team leader and if you still don't participate, you'll be off the team and the comm. There will be exceptions for example the first and last week of a battle when things are going slower and there are no challenges or there are only 1-2 challenges. Also you can always go on a hiatus but a hiatus can be no longer than three weeks. If you need to leave for longer, you'll need to reapply when you come back if you want to be back on the comm.
4. The team leaders are the ones who determine who will be kicked out of the community. Now, their picks will not be random and reasonless as they will have to go through me, so if you participate and follow the rules, you're safe.
5. Everything you enter into the challenges must be new, original and made by you.
6. Have fun!
Team rules
1. If you want to leave the community, leave a comment
on this post.
2. If you want to change teams, PM me and your team leader with the reasons (or wait and see if there’s an offer to change at the end of the battle).
3. You can change teams only 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 reply to your team’s thread or you will not get points.
Points rules
1. Every challenge gives certain amount of points for participation, normally that would be 10 points.
2. For the winners there are bonus points determined by the difficulty of the challenge.
3. Points are allocated after the challenge is over! So don't ask why the points of your team haven't changed if the challenge is still on.
4. Every three months the battle 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.
FAQ
1. Where do I submit my entry to the challenge?
In a comment to the challenge post unless anything else is stated in the rules.
2. Can I submit something old I've made?
No, you can't. The entry must be new and original and you must keep it a secret until the challenge results are posted unless otherwise stated.
3. Can I share my entry with other people?
Yes, you can but not before the challenge and the voting are over.
4. Can I submit other people's work?
No, you can't.
5. Can I vote for my own entry?
No, it wouldn't be fair. And besides if everyone voted for their own entries, how is there ever going to be a competition?
6. What if I can't do a challenge?
Then you don't do it. That's the way things go. If you can't make graphics, it's fine, you can still participate in writing and games and vice versa.
7. I have a problem. What do I do?
You either
go here and post you problem or contact me or one of your team leaders. We're always ready to help.
