Baisc Rules

1. All normal forum rules still apply here.

2. You are allowed to go against someone in a GFX battle, but it must be posted in the designated topic.

3. A deadline should be set for a Battle, having been accepted. If one competitor doesn't submit an entry before the deadline without a valid reason, they lose by forfeit.

4. Loitering in other GFX team forums and causing problems will result in punishment for the whole team that they are representing. Punishment will be based on severity of offense and be handle by moderators.

5. Moderators have final say in matters. Failure to comply with their requests will result in nullification of voting and suspension from participating in any GFX battle for up to 2 weeks.

6. Ripping will result in an indefinate ban from participating in battles, unless proven to a moderator that they should be allowed to compete.


Voting

1. Competitors have 1 week to attain votes. After this period, the competitor with the most votes wins, and the topic is closed.

2. Voters that participate in the judging of graphics must explain their reason for choosing clearly. Votes with reasons such as "It looks nice" or "I like (character's name) better! " will not count.

3. If a competitor decides to draw out, or that enough is enough, they lose by forfeit.

3. The Rape Rule: A challenger may set the stipulation for "Rape"; it is the number of votes one player must lead by to win automatically.
For example...if the stipulation is set for 5/7, this implies that a 5 vote lead is needed to win by rape, or failing that, first to 7.
