Right ok then it's a skin off, I started this idea so i've decided. you want in they you play by the rules, you know what you are getting yourself into, this can get rough and some comments can be hard. but as others have said if you are sensitive about your work then don't enter

• each pair will be assigned a character and mesh for that round,
• now the catch if the character has multiple costumes, if you can skin them to the assigned mesh then you have choice in costumes
• if the mesh has hidden items then you can hex but no skoping.
• if you win you will progress to the next round of the tournament where you will be given a character
• characters will be randomly drawn from all sources including avatars
• all entrys must be new work, if you've skinned the character before you may use elements like extras but the skin but be 90% new work, if questioned you may be asked to show comparison picks

now onto judging and marking, the easyiest was to do this is with a group of 3 judges,

• a judge will mark each entry out of 10 and average of the 3 will be your final score.
  e.g if judge A marks an entry 6, judge B marks it 8 and judge C marks it 4, making 18/30 so 18 divided 3 so the final score is 6/10
• now a judge can enter the competition his/her self, but they can not mark there own work. to combat this the other two judges will mark the skin out of 20 and divide the total by 2 instead of 3
• what the judges are looking for are
  
• faithfulness to the source
• use of techniques
• skill of the artist


• the judges will each assign the characters



• prizes may be awarded for the top 3, but that will be determinate at a later date, and what they will be i've no idea

at the moment I'm thinking of 4 rounds starting with 8 members, then the quarters, semi's and then final. does that seem fair. so who wants in to we make a list

Or you could have up to 10 backup judges 

jk. I'm up for this, as long as I don't have to skope.

Oh, this is interesting. Wish I could participate, but I'll be okay with spectating.

Now if you'll excuse me, I've been away long enough to completely miss what skoping is.

Haha!

I'm interested in judging, but that's up to whoever to select me. If I'm not chosen, I won't be hurt.
