Dropping a vote here guarantees you spot in the winter topical if you wish to participate










Winter Topical II
**Rules and Regulations**


Official Rules

Moderators: Sral, Adonis


Basic Competition Rules


Winter Topical: Was the most one of the most successful topical tournaments to date, so we're back at it. Same Rules, different hosts.


Rundown

Sixteen (potentially thirty two) competitors
Single Elimination
Any member who does not drop a single vote will forfeit a victory to next round.
In general, a minimum of three votes are expected of all members[/B]
If you are unsure whether or not a competitor will show, and wish not to waste a verse, you may PM your verse to me BEFORE the deadline, in which case I will alert your opponent and withhold the verse until they post OR I receive their verse, at which point the verses will be posted and the matches will open for voting.
[/B]



Seeding

Randomized

First round will have alternates though, in case of no-show.


Deadlines:


Verses will be due Tuesday at 11:59 p.m. Western / or Wednesday 2:59 Am Eastern / 7:59AM UK . There are no Extensions. No exceptions.
Verses must be a minimum of 10 Lines and maximum of 48 Lines or 650 words unless agreed upon by both competitors.
Votes will be due Friday at 11:59 p.m. Western / or Saturday 2:59 Am Eastern / 7:59AM UK.

Shutout battles will be closed when voting reaches 6-0, or at 5-0 on Monday, under moderators discretion
In the event of a tie at the voting deadline, battles will be left open in a "next vote wins format".



Voting:


Each competitor must vote on at least three battles and post either links or reference in designated thread. In the event there are less than three battles a competitor can vote on, the competitor MUST vote on all open battles or give feed for the no-show artists. (a no-show feed counts as a half vote, only left open if necessary.)
Anyone who wins but does not meet three vote criteria will be docked the same amount of votes going into the following round. (meaning you would start off with negative votes), However, they will be given the opportunity to give make-up votes the following week.
Votes must be explained with common competitor courtesy. If a competitor flags a vote and MOD agrees, the vote must be expanded in more depth or it will not count, both towards said battle and competitors voting requirements.


Disqualifications:


Direct plagiarism or, using another authors words is an immediate loss and possible site ban.
Recycling, use of previous works will not be allowed. Doing so is automatic loss, no questions asked.
Editing verse, after deadline or after the first vote = a loss.
Swaying, in excess will not be tolerated. You will be warned once, if you continue to sway you will be disqualified immediately.
Exceeding line length, (unless competitors agree). If the agreement is not public the thread will be closed until the competitors are contacted by the MODs.





It is your duty as a competitor to be familiar with these rules, as henceforth they shall serve as the basis for all moderator decisions. It is our duty as moderators to enforce rules to the letter of the law. These are locked & stickied for the benefit of all involved


**Anything not covered by these rules will be decided by Lars and Adonis. Please contact one of us if you wish for us to elaborate on the rules, if you believe that a rule should be changed, or if you have a suggestion for an additional rule.**

Asap

brokenhal0 and neutral both have OM pieces up on the first page

personally I'd prefer Razah in place of that grapx guy, keep grapx as a sub

Razah should get priority because he fucked with us the whole season and participated

I'll forever give those who help me the nod over anyone else where I can

[Diablo]

OK. I'll send you my seedings and you can adjust based off your knowledge of shit. I'll get topics ready tonight as well so when we hit the magic number we can run with it.

some I slip up on and give away who it is, others I've kept secret for ages

this one started because I wanted to drop gunbars in Hush' URL Cypher thread.. ended up joining the 1-2 as it to compete undercover for a short stint haha

[Razah]

Im'a get back to life now & shit.

I'll be checking at least once a day to see what happens, whether I'm in it to begin with or as a no show replacement.

I'm cool with either, no biggie really.
