As we all know, Strop is leaving for a few weeks, and therefore has given up his job as the judge of the Art Skills competition leaving that spot open. All who would like to participate in running for this spot are welcome. As Strop said, it is up to the community to decide. There will however be a fair amount of rules to make sure that the next judge is qualified. Just because you fill in the spot as judge, does not mean you will become a mod.
Basic Rules: -Flaming WILL get you automatically disqualified.
-You can only vote once per round
-Do not vote for someone just because they are your friend. Vote for them because you believe they are qualified.
-Do NOT vote until you are told that voting is open.
In Depth Rules and Steps:
1. You must fully understand the rules that the Art Skills Competition rules and have been fairly active in the competition for a decent amount of time. (By decent I mean long enough to also understand the amount of work it will take, and responsibility needed. Plus the fairness needed to judge)
2. You will write 1 to 2 paragraphs stating why you believe you are worthy of being the judge. Things you have judged in the past, ways you show responsibility, how you know that it would be difficult. Etc.
3. After this, there shall be a vote. Once the vote is finished and decided, the top 3 shall each get a 1 week trial, they decide the theme, deadline, and judge, this is to get an idea on whether or not they are able to commit.
4. Once the trials are over, we, the members of AG, will have one last vote on who will become the next, official, Art Skills Competition judge.
Schedule:
- January 14th, 2009. - This will be the date of the closing of entering. Please have your full 1-2 paragraphs done and posted by then. Voting Starts today as well.
-January 16th, 2009- The ending and counting up of voting. The #1 voted for will judge the theme "Judgement" and will pick the next theme, date, etc.
Sooo if voting ends in week or so, wont there be another round in between?
*wants to be judge for a round*
I don't want to run for official judge... but have always wanted to judge a round. So, Cen, Crimson, Zoph, could I judge a round while people are voting for you?
I am not going to make that decision Cholokid as I am a bit confused myself as to the fate of this week.It doesn't help that we did have another person running for judge(deth4) who we talked about being a guest judge,but I haven't even seen him in this section for awhile now,so I don't know.I personally have no problem with you judging,but there are just a few elements that make it a bit more complicated,and so I don't think I want to be the one to make a decision like that.
@Crimsonbalde55 Its understandable. Deth4 would be more fit for it, sense he did actually enter. And I wonder where he is too, I haven't seen him in a while.
@Firetail Vote for what? The official Art Skills judge? No, anyone can vote for that.
well if you mean whether or not Cholokid can judge then I don't think we would be voting for it,but if you mean the real judge then yeah anyone can vote and this whole contest would be pointless if the community couldn't vote for it.Still Cholokid if Deth4 doesn't show up in the next couple of days to take place as judge,then in my opinion I don't see why you couldn't judge,but I'm only one of the people running in this contest.Although to tell you the truth you did create this competition,so it would seem fair as long as no one else plans on judging.All I know is a whole week without a contest could end up fatal.(exaggeration is always nice in times like these)
Well, title lies, voting begins on page 7. There is the information needed.
Who to vote for, when it will end (a week or so), and ... Yeah. I guess we have no idea of who is going to judge, but well, I agree with Crimson.
And to start it off (it seems, since Klause is being weird like always): I vote for Crimson. Again. Because the trophy was hilarious. And Zophia is procastinating judging whenever she can > >..
