*cool graphic goes here*
It's simfile season again, and you know what that means? Time to kick things off with Z-I-v's version of Battle Royale called.... ummmm Battle Royale!
Each week people will upload one simfile for the week. Members will then vote on these files. There's a threshold that has to be passed in order to advance to the next round. So only the top 50% members will advance each round. This will go on for 4 rounds until the final two members are decided and they will get to host the 2019 Summer Contest!
CONTEST RULES:
1. You are required to vote if you enter a file. You can still vote if you are eliminated.
2. You can't vote for your own song (of course)
3. One file per round, so make it count!
4. Files must be uploaded by the deadline, NO EXCEPTIONS
5. Name files accordingly: [Round 1] - SONG NAME. (Including the hyphen). This is so files are organized and easy to find.
5b. If two people upload the same song in the same week, put your user name next to the file when you upload it. [Round 1] - SONG NAME (USER NAME). It's rare, but it has happened before.
6. If there's still a tie between files that goes pass the round threshold, members who tie will still go on to the next round.
6b. In the event of the threshold being 0 votes, Users who don't upload a file and/or have 0 votes will be eliminated and players who did upload a file will advance to the next round.
SIMFILE RULES:
1. You must have at least 1 chart. (doubles and other chart times are also allowed but not required).
2. Songs to be rated in the Classic DDR/ITG scale. 1-10/13ish. This way we don't get a mix bag of songs in classic and X ratings and have a mess between the same level.
3. Songs must be less than 2:30 in length.
4. Pad charts for this contest only, no keyboard charts.
5. Automatically generated steps are not allowed.
6. New simfiles only. You can't re-release a song you've already done.
7. Graphics are not needed for a song but are HIGHLY recommended. If you do not have graphics, someone else can make some on request or a placeholder will be provided for you.
VOTING:
Voting will be sent via PM to me. Make sure to put Battle Royale as your subject.
You will be given 15 points per week to use for voting. You can vote for as many songs are you like but you can only give a up to 5 points for a single file.
DEADLINES.
DEADLINES WILL BE ON MONDAYS AT 5PM UTC

March 4th-11: Round 1 vote
March 11th-18th: Round 2 submissions
