Forum of the Month [Auditions]
Duration: May 31, 2009
The Auditioning
The 'Forum of the Month' competition is a very well-known battle between the best of the best forums. All users that are auditioning for the Forum of the Month contest will fill out a special form and clarify their forum's category. Once the auditions end (on May 31), a series of contests will be based on the forums, and each forum will be dispatched into the selected category.
Round 1: Confirmation Round
Once the auditions end (on May 31), each forum will be judged (by the staff) if it should move on to the next round of not; and this is called the Confirmation Round. Only 5 forums from each category will be confirmed into this round. The forums will be judged on
June 2 if, whether or not, they will be accepted to the next round. On
June 3, the forums that are moving on to the next round after confirmation will be announced and the next round will begin.
Round 2: Middle-Phase
On
June 4, the next round begins, and this round is called Middle-Phase. In this round, members of ForuMansion will vote for the best forum from each category. The voting then ends on
June 14, and then 2 forums from each category will be eliminated and the continuing contestants will be announced. The next contest begins.
Round 3: Teamwork
On
June 15, after the elimination of 2 forums from each category, each category of forums will have to work together to increase the standards of all of their forums overall. Each forum of the category will be given a reviewed rating by the reviewers of this forum, and the total amount of each ratio from each forum of the category will be lifeline of the category. In other words, let's say that the 'Culture' category has the following ratings from each forum :
- ArtPalace: 3/10
The Politics Village: 2/10
Culture Land: 4/10
Let's also say that the 'Culture' category has the lowest tallied rating. This means that the whole 'Culture' category will be removed from the competition. However, in this round, there won't be only 1 category to be eliminated from the compition- but
2. On
June 18, those 2 categories to be eliminated and the continuing contestants will be announced. The next comptetition takes its place.
Round 4: Elimination Night
On
June 19, the staff will decide/discuss one more category to be eliminated and 1 forum from each category to be eliminated. This round won't take a long time; hence 'Elimination Night.'
Round 5: The Finale
On
June 20, 2 contestants will remain from each of the 2 remaining categories. This part of the contest will not be judged by voting or discussion by staff, but it will be based on a simple quiz. The staff will create a 10-questioned quiz, and the quiz will be sent via PM to the two following contestants. The contestants have 1 day to send in the application to the staff; and then on
June 21, the winning forum will be
deleted announced.
