Welcome to Gaia! ::


Attention, children! Attention!

As this lovely ABR steadily comes to its close, we feel that our participants should have one more week to themselves to catch up on their kills before our finalists are announced.

Therefore!

This edition of ABR is closed to the general public as of now!

The final day for everyone to turn in their kills shall be Sunday, December 25th. Finalists shall be announced that following Monday, and shall be posted upon the front page.

Minna shinde kudasai!

What is ABR?

ABR, or Artist Battle Royale, is a game conceived by XoSwingFoxoX last year. Our purpose is to give freebie artists a chance to draw something fun, get some free art for themselves, and have the chance at earning just a little bit of gaia gold. In this unusual place death is a form of flattery as friends and family are pitted against eachother to prove that while the pen may not be mightier than the sword, it can certainly draw plenty of blood. We try to keep our environment friendly and amiable towards our participants and floaters thus we request you obey all of the rules and be polite and respectful to the players and their comfort zones.
Rules of Conduct

Even though we at ABR encourage violance and death, we do not tolerate unfair or inappropriate behavior. We have some strict rules that must be set in place to protect the poor youth involved.

1. Respect the Gaia TOS at all times. Any violators won't only be black-listed, but reported as well.

2. This place, while made to be a relaxing, carefree place for generous artists, has a lot of rude people trying to take advantage of our talented folk. This is NOT a freebie thread for everyone. This is an ART EXCHANGE. If you feel the need for some free art without the expectation of something in return go somewhere else. Don't bother posting in here because we don't want those kind of vermin in these parts.

3. If you post saying 'KILL ME PLEEZ!1!!one1!', you will be black-listed. No one likes a beggar and the liklihood is you are in violation of rule #2.

4. Put EFFORT into your art. If you aren't an exemplary artist, at least try to make an amusing joke or dramatic situation with your death to show you aren't just trying to get art.

5. While this is in the TOS, I feel it must be restated. This forum MUST be kept at a PG-13 level. This has indeed been a problem in the past and has to be eliminated now. We have young people in here and nobody has a right to expose them to such things. Swearing and flirting should be kept to a minimum and excessiveness will result in a black-listing and a possible report.

6. The moderators are trusted and revered individuals and they should be obeyed. If you have a complaint about a moderator please PM KohakuChan.

7. Please do not post in the 'Ornate' style. That is for official ABR updates and announcements.

Black List:
Shagami
Amos V2.1
Katasaki
Moderator Rules

1. The moderators have an obligation to obey the rules just as much as the participants

2. The moderators are also obliged to be fair and unbiased in thier rulings.

3. Any ban must be approved by every staff member and, if accepted, must be done over through Kitano-sensei. He is the only one with the authority to pass judgement.

4. If you are found to be taking advantage of your authority, undermining Kitano's, or not following the rules put before you, you will be demoted from the moderator position and possibly black-listed (depending on the severity of your crimes).

Moderators:
KohakuChan
Q-chan
Jenna Chan
Shini
Mousira
Sweet Amber

Weapon Rules

The weapon system is still a little shakey. It may take several games for it to be solidified, thus it has changed yet again. While the first game was very lenient, the second was too structured thus we at the headquarters have tried to find a middle ground.

1. You need to choose a number between 1 and 200. These numbers are arranged into catagories (no we wont tell you the system).

2. I shall inform you of your weapon catagory via PM.

3. You are allowed to pick your weapon ONLY within the confines of your catagory.

4. The weapon you choose must be approved by me before it can be used (in order to prevent duplicates).

Weapon Catagories:
One-Handed Blade
Two-Handed Blade
One-Handed Blunt
Two-Handed Blunt
Range
Physical
Plushie
Useless?
Chemical
Explosive
Magical
Jewelry
Gaia Item
Kitano's Choice

Collar Rules

A new feature of ABR this year are the collars. Every participant has one with a number corsponding to the one they used to choose their weapon. Every Sunday a random number will be chosen. When that happens, the one with the same number will have their collar explode and they shall be 'comatose' for 3 days. During this time they are not allowed to post a kill. Isn't that fun?
Participation Rules

So you still want to join in hm? Very well... I suppose you'll want to know the process of participation then.

1. Go through the weapon process (see the above post for details)

2. Once your weapon is approved, you must kill me... If you are able, that is... Please treat this as a normal kill if not something more important. This is to prove that you aren't just claiming to join for free art.

3. If you've proven your worthiness with a kill, you draw the traditional 'sexy picture' and make your gallery post here.

4. You must make at least 1 kill every week. It shall be checked each Friday and if you don't you will be given a warning PM. If by a Sunday deadline there is still no kill, you shall be black-listed.
Moderator Application

Oh so you think that you have what it takes to be an offical of the Battle Royale program do you? There are a few rules before you can be concidered.

1. You must have been active in BOTH of the previous ABR programs

2. You must be thoroughly educated in the ways of ABR for you will be required to answer questions new comers have.

3. You must be patient and unbiased as possible. This is difficult but fairness must be preserved.

You fill these requirements? PM me and we'll see how the other staff members feel about your involvement.
Frequently Asked Questions

What!? You aren't SWING! How do I know this is the REAL ABR?
Well then you should have paid some better attention, child. Swing is no longer an official of ABR. He is unlikely to participate or answer questions so please don't pester him. I'M in charge.

What about weapon swapping? I might get bored of my weapon.
You should work that out in your selection process. There shall be no weapon swapping. The system was messy and confusing. You're stuck with what you've got.

I can't draw but I want to participate!
You have one of two options. One: You try as hard as you can, keep active, and take tips graciously or Two: Go away. Plain and Simple.

Wow! I can kill a million people in a single picture and win! biggrin
Um... no. One kill per picture. If more than one die... well... it still only counts as one death.

Aw... Can I at least commit suicide?
If you feel you really must I suppose its alright...

Can I change my clothes unlike last time?
Yes you can, but your clothing cannot be directly used in a kill. If that were the case the one with the biggest inventory would have the most variety.

Nobody is talking to me! Everybody hates me don't they! D:!?
Now now! ABR has always been a fast moving thread and posts get lost easily. The best thing you can do is be polite and active and eventually you'll be welcomed into the family with open arms.
