INFO
vglims is a video game themed last icon maker standing competition. Each week a new challenge will be posted and as time goes on, participants will be eliminated based on how their icons score until only one person remains standing.
You will pick a video game character to serve as your identity for the duration of the competition- this will be you secret identity and you should not share it with anyone.
SIGN-UPS
Sign ups are currently closed.
GENERAL
- You must be signed up and watching the community to participate. I don't particularly care if you're a member, but that would be nice too.
- You will submit one icon per each theme unless otherwise specified.
- Your icons must fit LJ standards of 40kb or less, 100x100px or smaller and be of .JPG, .GIF or .PNG format. I don't care if you make animated icons, but you must make sure that they will fit on LJ before submitting.
- Do not post your icons anywhere outside of the community until you are either eliminated or the round is over. I know this seems like a long time to wait, but I think it's much for fun when all of your identities are secret!
- Fanart is not allowed.
- I will allow all types of video games with the exception of visual novels, which really don't take any sort of skill to "play".
- You will start off with one skip. If you do not submit, a skip will automatically be deducted. If you don't submit and have no skips left, you will be eliminated. You may gain one additional skip by posting our promotional banner in a public entry.
- You may not skip during the first round or the last two rounds.
SCHEDULE
- FRIDAY: Submissions close and voting goes up at 11:00 PM PST.
- SUNDAY: Voting is closed and results & a new theme are posted at 9:00 PM PST.
- MONDAY-FRIDAY: You make and submit pretty icons.

VOTING
- Don't vote for yourself or get others to vote for you, that's not cool. If I find you doing it or notice anything suspicious I will investigate and boot your ass out if need be.
- Use constructive criticism.
- You will be voting for multiple icons of lesser quality and for one favourite icon. The numbers will change each week depending on the amount of submissions.
PRIZES
I am a broke-ass college student, so you'll be receiving banners.
PROMOTIONS
You will be awarded one extra skip if you post a promotional banner in an unlocked journal entry. You cannot gain more than one additional skip, making the maximum amount of skips you may have per round two.
