Introduction/Rules Post
Hello, Gt community! Welcome to the Sizey Oc Smackdown! This is a bracket-style tournament featuring the lovely OCs of our community!
Before we get to the smackdown rules, allow me to introduce myself.
My name is Pop but I am open to any number of nicknames. I use she/her pronouns. I am a MINOR, people being creepy will be blocked. My main blog is @poprockpanda but all smackdown-related things should be sent to this blog.
Onto the rules of the tournament.
(1) The characters must be OCs, aus of characters from existing media are not allowed in.
(2) The creator must be on Tumblr and must consent to their characters being in the poll. I will contact all creators before the poll to make sure but if they change their mind I will remove their oc, no questions asked.
(3) In the event of an OC being pulled after the smackdown begins, I will choose the next submission in chronological order and they will fight the previous opponents of the OC that was pulled. If the new oc loses to a previous opponent, they will take the new OC's place. (Example cus it might be confusing: OC 1 gets pulled from the poll 3 rounds in and OC 2 replaces them. They lose again to OC 1's round one opponent, OC 3. OC 3 will take OC 2's place and battle OC 1's previous opponents and those that OC 2 would have faced if they had moved on.)
(4) OCs must be sfw, OCs will nsfw content will be disqualified.
(5) I reserve the right to deny entry to an OC for any reason.
(6) Propaganda is allowed and encouraged but harassment is not. Death threats will result in an instant block, even if joking.
(7) Please don't bot the polls, if I find out about significant botting on one side they will be disqualified. If there is evidence of it on both sides they will both be disqualified.
(8) If you have concerns about a creator feel free to send me an ask but you have to have evidence. If an ask doesn't have evidence, it will be deleted.
You can submit as many submissions as you would like but please only make 1 submission per creator. You can submit more than one OC from a creator if they can be considered a duo or group.
There will be 32 slots and they will be first come first serve. I will be checking up on the amount of submissions so I will close the form when we have around 40 submissions to allow for OCs getting pulled or disqualified. If we have more pulled than that I will substitute some of my own ocs.
Speaking of my own ocs, my ocs Beatrix and Amanda will be automatically included because nepotism.
Thank you if you got to the end of this. I hope that this will be a fun experince and a good chance for the wonderful creators of this community to show off their often underappreciated OCs.

Also! Original characters in canon/au versions of existing media would count. I am sorry if this was unclear, they just have to be an original creation.
