Attention!
Two days ago, the eight teams for the Collab Tournament were revealed. Today, I’ll be showing which teams are competing against each other as well as the general rules for the tournament.
And I know you all are asking, what happened to @uenodivision ? Isn’t he usually in charge of the planning and execution for the Collab Event? Yes, he was, however, due to his…ever expanding hiatus, I have taken it upon myself to keep the project going in his stead. Now I know that the past Collab Events were…mediocre to some at least and should this Collab Event be the last one then I want to end it off on a good note where everyone can be involved whether you’re still active in the fandom or not.
Now with that out of the way, let’s get to the rules…
Rules:
Schedule: The Collab is scheduled to begin on November 1st, the first Saturday of the month and will continue through the rest of the month until the 5th Saturday which is the 29th. I’ll try to have all of the songs posted by or around 2 P.M. (CST). If not by then, then definitely before 6 P.M. (CST).
Song Selection/Sending In Songs: After the theme has been chosen (and a winner from the previous round has been announced), you will send me a song that you want your OC to sing by DMing me either on Tumblr or Discord (if you’re part of the community discord; more information can be found here). The song can be whatever you want, if it’s animated or sung by a real person, it’s fine, I don’t judge; I know how hard it can be to find a song/singer that sounds or feels like OC (This is completely optional but if you want to personal name the title of the song your OC is singing then feel free to do so but otherwise, we’ll just use the default title)
IMPORTANT: If possible, please try to send your songs in ASAP. I’d like to have all songs by no later than Thursday night or Friday morning at the very latest so I can begin working on the week’s songs. If you need help finding a good song or think you won’t be able to post a song in time, please either let me or one of your teammates know and we’ll do our best to help. If you don’t, I’ll leave the choice of song in your teammates’ hands, if you don’t like the song choice then I’m afraid that’s tough luck.
Themes: After discussing it with my fellow Admins, it’s been decided that I along with fellow admins Edo (@edogawa-division) and Zephie (@minato-division03) will be choosing the themes for each teams to perform in. The themes will generally be only one word revoking around a certain feeling or emotion (quite similar to what Paradox Live does). Again, I have been talking with many other Admins and we will try to pick a theme that’s easy for people to find songs for, but if you can’t find a song that fits the theme or doesn’t sound like your OC then you are absolutely free to discard the theme and pick a song that you like, once again, I know how hard it can be to find a song that fits your OCs voice range or general aesthetic.
Voting: Voting is scheduled to begin as soon as the Tournament Songs have been posted (which is why I’ll be trying my best to make sure they are all out by 2 P.M. (CST) if possible). At the moment, I’m not sure which voting system I’ll use but I’m sure by the time the tournament comes around, you’ll all find out.
As stated, voting is scheduled to begin each Saturday evening and will last until Tuesday evening, which is when the winning teams will be announced along with the new themes and brackets. As soon as you have listened to the songs, be sure to head to the poll and vote for the team you think won.
IMPORTANT[2]: I feel like this should go without saying but please try and refrain from being biased when voting for the winning team, please don’t vote for a team just because it has your OC in it, yes yes boring I know but let’s at least try to give everyone a fair chance here.
I believe that covers everything, if there’s anything else, I’ll be sure to let everyone know.
So now, without further ado, allow me to show the tournament team bracket for the first round:
