Who's ready for... the WBO's fourth GFX tournament?! I don't expect many to enter but if you can, enter now!
The Rules:
Tournament Set Up:
-The tournament is a round robin format.
General Rules:
-Battles that are not ties (or finals) will consist of 2 competitors.
-Each round will last one week.
-While each round is commencing, the participants are to create their sig for the next round (themes will be announced prior to the start of the first battle in each round)
-Themes will be selected at random, and sometimes on the spot.
-NEW! Sig size limit restrictions. Max is 500x200, must be appropriate size for a sig
-Participants with the highest voting percentage as the finals are to begin will decide the theme for the final battle
-When a thread is created in order to nullify the effects of group conformity and bias the voting will be blind without any specific mention of the creator of each sig. Each sig will be presented as 'Member A or 1', 'Entrant A or 1', 'Signature A or 1'. This will help ensure an even playing field for each participant as a person’s profile won't influence voting.
-When a thread is created there will be no polling option for voting. Polls can be easily manipulated to assist a competitor. This can include the use of fake accounts or simply voting for yourself using your own account. Only votes which are posted and specifically mention which competitor they'll choose to vote for will be included towards a person’s tally. ie, "I vote for Member A, since their design catches the eye better".
Messages to participants who send late entries
- For every day an entry is past the deadline a 2 vote penalty will apply.
- If an entry is 4 or more days late, the person with the late entry will forfeit the Round.
- If a person DOES NOT want to incur a 2 vote penalty for a late submission, the participant with the late entry will need to contact ME and ask for an extension.
- The length and whether or not an extension is granted varies on each individual situation. If an extension is granted after a vote penalty has occurred, the voting penalty will be upheld.
- The vote penalty will occur for the persons next battle.
Please remember:
- Unlike a normal graphic battle where anybody may create a battle thread, the tournament threads will only be created by myself.
