The Gist

This will be the area of discussion, challenging and updates. Graphic battles will consist of (but not limited to) 2 contestants competing against each other. Several ways of competing exist.


Theme: Challenger and opponent agree on the same theme. Judges vote on who portrayed the theme the best.

Collaberation: Challenger will create or manipulate a piece half-way, and then pass it along for his opponent to finish. Judges will then decide whose effort was the best.

Toss Back: Same basics of a collaberation, except it is done in rounds. Challenger starts out with something, passing it to his opponent, and his opponent will pass it back to the challenger. This will go on for a predetermined amount of rounds.

Request: Each contestant will accept the same graphic request from a member. Using the same images, same description, etc.. to see who can create the better request.

Clash: Challenger will choose one theme of art (abstract for example) and his opponent must choose an opposite theme (grunge in this case). Judges will then cast their vote as to who did a better job with their theme.

Rule-age

Theme. Size. Demensions. Number of Rounds. Time Limit. -- All must be agreed upon before competing.

Please leave a courtesy post in this thread if you plan on battling someone!!

Challenger will post his submission(s) first.

Each battle will be judged by at least 2 judges.

Judges will be universal and chosen by moderators of the forum.

Contestants can request certain judges, otherwise any two (or more) are welcome to judge your battle.

If two judges conflict each other, a third judge will come to make the call.

I removed some people from the judges list if they haven't been around here for a while. If you want to be added on the just drop me a PM or post here. Also, remember if you commit to a battle, whether it be judging or as an actual participant, then please go through and finish the battle with whoever. Its a shame to have a battle where one person signs up but is unable to get anything in cause he's too busy. Think about that stuff before you agree to a battle.

Incase no one saw my last reply I'm up for a battle against anyone expect people who i know i won't stand any chance against.

I had a bit of an idea that I think the mods should consider when it comes to battles, and it is kind've related to the Neo Emcee Forum where once the battle is complete, the thread creator makes some sort of mark in the title (***) that shows the battle is ready for judging.


If this were to be required I think it would completely eliminate the delay on judging. I know that sometimes I forget about the battles I've signed up to judge if they have gone on for a while, and sometimes the participants forget to PM a reminder to those judges, and the thread usually ends up sitting for longer than it needs to.


Just an idea to think about.
