There are 21 Members....They didn't counted kuji...so i am out of the tournament....Okay.
Oct. 29, 2012 1:38 PM
What's very funny is after you decided that, Kuji has dropped out of the Competition.
You have a Chance, Leave or join again...

20 participants without Kuji. If he still wants in (which is actually reccomended!). I can make one of the blocks have 6 participants instead of 5.
Oct. 29, 2012 1:45 PM
Oh Sorry guys But i thought Kuji wont show up! BTW Insomniac really?
Oct. 29, 2012 1:47 PM
Of course, we can always make arrangements here and there. And see, Electric showed up from nowhere! So maybe older GFX'ers like Noodoo might even pop up. So ... yes, I can make the block exceptions. In a sense, its like a Beyblade tournament, people show up, some don't.
Oct. 29, 2012 1:49 PM
Insomniac! I talked to Kuji! Kuji wont enter this battle! He was busy!
-.-
SO yeah 5 members each block! 20 members!

If Kuji seriously doesn't want to enter, alright. I can understand the part about his work, iirc, he has quite a lot on average. With that, ENTRY IS CLOSED. 20 PARTICIPANT LIMIT REACHED.
Oct. 29, 2012 1:53 PM
Thats sad. But now there are more chances for other gfxers, but the winner cant call himself the best.

Of course. Did you forget about othellog, Fyuuor, Kai-V, Kaizer-V, BlackCat, Rentp0, etc ... ?
Can't call yourself the best, but at least better than the rest that enter here xD

Double Focal

Kaizer-V?? He sort of copies Kai-V's style and bends it in the sides.
Wat is a focal? I dont think many of the participants know either.

I suggest you stop it right here. He does amazing GFX and he has showed me. Maybe his current style is trying to imitate Kai'V's on purpose but he does do great work.

Making this crystal clear. Only post here if you have a theme suggestion. If anyone posts with stuff reminiscent to "what is a ______" and "when does it start", etc ... they'll have to enjoy their delicious warning on a silver platter. Don't continue the off-topic-ness.
Oct. 29, 2012 2:08 PM
Lookie here.
I'll make this very clear.
NO ONE IS DROPPING OUT ONCE WE START
If you can't take the weekly pressure from this, leave now. I will still be hosting, but I won't have time to enter.
So, think ahead, for about 4-7 weeks, and be 100% sure that you CAN and WILL do this to the end.
Only if you have a seriously valid reason (death in the family, etc.) will we consider that. And maybe, if that does occur (not like I want it to) I will join.
Now... Back to business, Insom, list?

Theme Suggestion:
Since Anime Is Popular Here In This Forum (Especially Since This Is A Beyblade Forum) Why Not MAke It Anime? Or We Could Also Go With Use Of C4Ds?

Additional Rules (Click to View)
Taken from Fyuuor's Thread of awesomeness. Some might not apply, ask Insom, Synth, Focus or me for clarification.
The Rules:
Tournament Set Up:
- The Tournament is a block round robin competition. There are 20 participants in total.
The 20 participants are divided into 4 blocks. Groups A, B, C and D have 5 participants and will all have a bye round.
- Each victory or draw a participant achieves is worth a set amount of points.
- A victory earns 3 points, draw earns 1 point, and a loss is worth 0 points.
- The participants with the most points in each individual block after the group stage/round robin portion of the tournament has finalized will progress to the finals.
- The finals will consist of the top points scorers of the group stages participating in the semi final. The victors of the semi final will progress to the grand final.
- The persons whom place first in Group A and C will verse each other in the Semi Final. While the participants who place first in Group B and D will verse each other in the Semi Final.
- The Grand Final will consists of the two winners of the Semi Final.
- The individual who wins the grand final will be declared the winner of the Tournament.
- A persons vote percentage through out the Tournament will be recorded for the situation of there being a a tie of points for first place in the group stages.
General Rules:
- Tournament battles consist only of 2 participants.
- Once a poll has been created voting will last 1 week.
- Participants will be given 1 week to complete a GFX.
- The winner of a battle is the participant with the most votes.
- The theme for each battle during the group stages will be randomly selected from a list of themes which were accumulated during the sign up week.
- The participants with the most points in the finals will decide the theme. If participants are tied on points, the person with the most amount of votes.
- No animation
- Size is normally within 500x200, special cases WILL BE GIVEN. Entries which deviate from the size restrictions will be disqualified.
- 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 there design catches the eye better".
*IMPORTANT MESSAGES FOR PARTICIPANTS WHO CONSISTENTLY 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.
- Any entry that is submitted after this time will be considered late.
-Any entry which is late less then 1 day will incur a 1 vote penalty
