Hark, the pounding drums of war...
-----
"Hellooo, and welcome to Requiem's very first Mod Contest! I am Chiriko and I shall be your host for today! And tomorrow, and the day after that, for as long as this tournament shall endure! We have the rules and will be announcing them shortly, but first! A word from your judges! Allow me to present Azure_Sea, your Adminess! Let's all give her a round of applause!"
"Huh? What? What am I doing?" -FEW SECONDS INTERMISSION- "Oooooohhhh... ... ... ... ... ... Ok, yeah... ... Well, just remember to fear our l337 ninja monkey assassins. *shifty eyes*"
"Um, wow, thank you Azure. Next up, we have Hanshou, your Coadminess, and also an officiator!"
"[pause] ...l337 ninja monkey assassins? ...[silence] Well, on a lighter note..." -CLOSE-UP- "IF ANY OF YOU MESS UP IN ANY WAY...Let's just say that LETTUCE will haunt you, FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE. Just thougth you'd like to know. ^.^ I am Hanshou and I approve this message."
"That's right, you heard the woman, contestants, thank you, Hanshou. And finally, a brief missive from your Coadminess, YamiKinoko!"
"Is this thing working? Check one two. Good heavens technology is stupid. Listen up, people! We're here to find more members for our staff [though you wouldn't know it to hear Wolfie and 'Shou... >>] in case you haven't noticed. Play it fair and I might not have to dock every point you own! That is all. Have a nice day."
"Eh... That was certainly, um, informative! Thank you, Kinoko, and next on our schedule we have the rules. If I may direct your attention to the billboard above [compiled by your Coadminess Kinoko]:"
1. This may be an extremely lenient, anything-goes assessment of your abilities, but god-moding will not be tolerated. It will make you extremely unlikeable to the judges and will in no way help you get selected as a mod. Case in point, by now, you should be able to tell what is god-moding and what isn't. Use the discretion I'm pretty sure you have buried way deep within that pea you call a brain.
2. Spelling and grammar, as usual, are looked at. And guess what? Some things new: style will be judged as well, and for the first time ever, commas!! If you're lucky, not all the Staff will choose to grade you harshly. You have been warned.
"The judges have asked me to remind everyone to please respect the rules and each other and this way, we'll all have fun."
"Judging will be as follows [also compiled by your Coadminess Kinoko, all bow before her devotion and superiority]:"
1. Each fight will be judged on a basis of 300 points. Each staff member will be in charge of and deduct from one hundred points. For god-moding, twenty points will be deducted. For spelling or grammar mistakes, depending on how egregious they are, up to five points each mistake will be deducted. Style will be graded and if there is lack of originality, there can be up to ten points deducted. For example: If you god-mod, you lose 60 points out of 300 because you are getting graded not once, not twice, but three times. Thank you for your cooperation.
"And now, the moment you have all been waiting for! I give you... the line-up!"
Due to a late withdrawal from the contest, we now have an uneven number of contestants. Therefore, the odd [wo]man out [drawn by courtesy of slips of paper in a hat] shall have the honor of fighting a member of the staff. Please proceed to the specified arena. Strict RP lines are to be observed. The first person listed shall make the first post. Do NOT post out of order or expect severe castigation [taking V's word]. Good luck to you all!"
