Duel Wins/Losses

Sat, 12 Jan 2008 01:35:46 GMT

Rather than keep an accurate tally of EVERY duel everyone particpates in, this will be the page where you see how many more duels you need for your score to change.

How do I keep track?
For every duel you win, you get +1.
For every duel you lose, you get -1 if you requested the duel or if the person who beat you had a lower score than you.

These numbers are added together. If you win a duel and then lose a duel you are set to 0 and are removed from the list until you win/lose another challenge. Once you reach +3 you gain .1 overall score point and are removed from the following list until you are in another duel, and once you reach -3 you lose .1 overall score point and are removed from the following list until you are in another duel.

You may only have three duels in progress at a time.

FABRICSCRAPS - -1
KEYBLADE - 0
KONICHIWA - +1
SCHOLAR - +2
SMELLOFAUTUMN - +2
SNAPPLE - 0
WHISKEY - -1

Challenges

Sat, 12 Jan 2008 01:32:41 GMT

This is our new-and-improved challenge system!

Periodically, the community will participate in challenges. A theme will be set, and every member can participate by submitting up to three pictures (unless otherwise specified). Members will then vote on each entry to decide a winner, usually in a tournament-style competition (Round A, B, C, Final, etc.).

CHALLENGE #8
COMING SOON

Go here to see our past challenges and winners.
You get +10 points for participating in a challenge, and an additional 20 points if you win. The runner-up in any competition will be awarded a further 15 points.

Monthly Point Tally

Sat, 12 Jan 2008 01:31:52 GMT

These points are not the ones you spend; this is just a tally of how many points you have accumulated over the current month. It will decide who is member of the month. The current lead score is bolded.

61_KEYS_TO_PLAY +15
DUST +19
FABRISCAPES
KEYBLADE

Spend Your Points

Sat, 12 Jan 2008 01:28:08 GMT

-50 points // Your vote will be counted twice in an application. You must say you want your vote to count twice when you vote initially (place "x2" in the subject of your vote). If you don't state you want your vote counted twice initially, then it will not be counted twice and points will not be deducted.
-100 points // You may reapply for a new score. The new score you receive is the score you will keep. If you delete your new application, your score will go down a whole point. Don't abuse this!
-150 points // Restart your duel wins/losses (Such as, I have -2, I cash in 150 points and my tally is reset to 0 as if I'd never accumulated those -2).
-200 points // Restart someone else's duel wins/losses: please tell us who.
-200 points // Deny any duel made against you.
-300 points // If you are placed on the least attractive list, you may remove yourself from the voting. Voting will commence, but any vote against you will not count. However, it will not be announced in the poll area. If you get the highest number of votes, the person with the most votes under you will be voted out. You have to use these points before the results are announced, so it must be used the day the poll is posted.
-300 points // Skip out on the monthly duel/superlative steal.
-300 points // Choose the winner in a duel, regardless of what the votes reflect. This must be done before the 3rd day of the duel.
-500 points // Deduct .5 from any member of your choice.

Comment on this post to cash in your points.
ALL COMMENTS ARE SCREENED.

This page is updated at the beginning of every month. If you aren't on the list, it is probably because you have been a member for less than a month - check the monthly tally to see how many points you have, although you cannot spend these until they appear in the bank. If you leave or are removed from the community at any time, your points total is reset to zero.
