Glоrious Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 To celebrate my 100th post, I'm going to hold a rather large tournament. It will consist of several rounds that have specific requirements and rules. In this tournament, there will be two cups. The first cup is known as The Glory Cup. This cup is the final winner's cup who will be prized with great gifts of glory and success. The 2nd cup is known as The Befallen Cup. This cup will be awarded to the winner of the Sidereal Tournament, a secondary tournament for a second chance for those who failed to achieve top 4 in The Glory Cup Tournament. They will receive less reward than the Glory Cup winner, but will receive large quantities of reward as well. This tournament requires a large amount of points; it will be hard to get by with less than 500 points. This will be a Pot Tournament, where the pot serves as the final reward. All points will be placed in the pot. READ THE RULES!!!! [spoiler=The Rules and Specifics]Once you've entered, there is no going back; there are no refunds. You must risk a lot of points in this tournament, so make sure you are ready to take the chance before signing up. This will be your only warning. The first time you break a rule, you will have to pay a penalty. The amount of points you must pay for your penalty will be based on this equation: Your Level (stars) x Round Number x 20. If you are in the Sidereal Tournament, you will pay exactly half for the penalty. Refusal to pay the penalty leads to immediate disqualification. If you break the rules twice, the penalty is doubled. Third time offenders will be disqualified. Points from penalties will be added to the Pot. Basic Rules:All YCM Rules Apply.Any Trolling / Spamming / or Flaming is strictly prohibited.Arguing with a Judge or me will not be tolerated. What I say goes.No Written Cards.Unless otherwise stated, all pictures cannot be: Real Life Pictures / 3D pictures / Colorless / or any Image that is deemed inappropriate (I will decide what that means; just use your common sense).Unless otherwise stated, there will be no fake Types, Sub-Types, Attributes, etc. All cards must be realistic.Unless otherwise stated, there will be no Dark Synchros or Dark Tuners.You must post the card name AND lore of the card. This will make judging easier.You must post a submission post here to join for the Glory Cup Tournament. All members of YCM are welcome to join.To verify that you have read these rules, type "I will be victorious" in your submission post. If you are unsure about a rule, ask. Detailed Rules:During each round, there will be a task assigned to each Tournament. Each task will ask the contestants to create a card(s) with specific directions. During each round, there will be a set of specific rules that you must use as guidelines while making your card. Failure to follow these rules will result in a penalty.A judging system will be used to rate the following objects: Originality, playability, OCG, Image & naming, and balance. There will be a point system consisting of 100 points to rate your card. Other objectives may be added to each round. During each round, 1 point will be given to an objective specified in the round rules and judging.There will be 4 rounds for the Glory Cup Tournament and 3 for the Sidereal Tournament. Each Tournament and round will have a different tasks.-The first round will have exactly 16 players. This round will eliminate the lowest scoring players until only 8 remain. This round is strictly for the Glory Cup Tournament.-There will be 2 rounds from henceforth; one for each Tournament. This round of each Tournament will be: the 2nd round of the Glory Cup Tournament and the first round of the Sidereal Tournament. Players who were eliminated in the first round of the Glory Cup will have a chance to enroll in the first round of the Sidereal Tournament. For each tournament, players will be eliminated until only 4 remain. A total of 8 players will survive these rounds.-The 3rd round for the Glory Cup will have 1 player eliminated (unless we have 3 players already). Unfortunately, that player will not have a chance to enroll for the Sidereal Tournament. For the Sidereal, there will be 3 final players in this 2nd round. Necessary players will be eliminated. Players who were eliminated in the Glory Cup Round 2 will have a chance to join the 2nd round of the Sidereal Tournament. A total of 6 players will survive these rounds.-The final round of the Glory Cup will determine the top 3. The first place winner will be declared the winner. The 2nd and 3rd place winners will be rewarded accordingly. For the Sidereal Tournament, only 1 player will be declared winner. They will be the only one to receive reward.To enroll in the Sidereal Tournament, you must pay 100 points x The Round Number. Players who donated at least 150 points before the Tournament began will not need to pay anything to join the Sidereal Tournament.During each round, there will be a ranking system. Players with the highest scores will be ranked at the top. Each player must pay a point amount depending on their rank, level (stars), and round number to continue to next round. Failure to pay will result in disqualification. Use the following equation to determine the amount that must be paid: Round Number x Your Level (stars) x (Rank - 1) x 5 As you can see, Rank 1 players will not have to pay. For Sidereal Tournament, you will pay exactly half. All points will be added to the Pot. To verify you have read these rules, type "I will be glorious" in your submission post.Cost:You must pay 50 points to enter this Tournament. Also, you must type "Glory Cup Ransom" for reason (when sending points). Points will be added to the Pot. [spoiler=Rewards]There will be exactly 4 players who are rewarded. Your rank for the final round of both Tournaments will result in your final ranking for the rewards: First Place - Glory Cup Winner First place winner will claim 50% of the pot and 5 reps.Second Place Second place winner will get 15% of the pot and 4 reps.Third Place Third Place winner will get 5% of the pot and 3 reps.First Place in Sidereal Tournament - Befallen Cup Winner of the Sidereal Tournament will get 10% of the pot and 5 reps. Remaining points in the Pot will be given to judges and to me. [spoiler=Judges]There will be 4 Judges. Each judge will get 1 rep and 4% of the pot (I gain 4% as well). Judges will be expected to help distribute reps for the winners. All judges must be at least Level 5 and have knowledge of OCG, Yugioh, and how to make a card. Judges must follow the judging system for each round and use the 100 point system. I will not be judging this Tournament; I will be the officer. Anyone who breaks the rules deals with me (and I don't play favorites. I want to find rule breakers. It means I get to give you a penalty and that's more points for me.) If you'd like to be a Judge, and you qualify, type "I will carry the burden" and ask to be judge.

Ieyasu Tokugawa Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 I will carry the burden and judge, since you got this approved. Question though, is it 20 pts per category or do we pick how much each category gets out of 100, because I generally don't judge give the picture as many max points as the other stuff, but whatever you decide. Also at Josh, you'd have to be at least level 3 to even be eligible to judge by Card Contest rules... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also at Josh, you'd have to be at least level 3 to even be eligible to judge by Card Contest rules...The judging system will vary upon the round. I will try to make rounds unique. Sometimes I focus on 1 objective, and give, for example, originality, more points than the other objectives. It's really out of 99 points, and 1 point will be for a special thing you have to add to card each round (like use special template, etc.). I might even add a new objective altogether. The ones I listed are the basic objectives each round will have. Hopefully, this answers your question. Approved for judge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anbu-of-Sand Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Just a question: By the Judges getting 1 Rep and 4% of the pot, it's pretty obvious we will all get the 4% at the end of the Contest, but is the 1 Rep after each round, or after the whole contest as well? Other than that, I don't have any more questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
