    Smash Round One!

    Welcome to Eyeson's Next Cid's Knight Cycle 3! If you've made it this far(shhh it's far ) than you're one step closer to becoming a Cid's Knight!

    First off we would like to introduce you to Mog Blogs. "Mog Blogs" is our private confessional booth. Those in the competition can't see your threads in there but those outside of the competition can! Think of it as a private feedback for the comp. Feel free to use it to your hearts desire! Only one thread per round though unless specified otherwise.

    To insure you understand all this, one of your first tasks is to create a Mog Blog thread. Title it "[Name]'s Round 1 [whatever nonsense you would like to put]" Just make sure your name and the round is specified unless told otherwise. It could be like "Freya's Party House 1" Or whatever you feel.

    Within your Thread you'll need to answer a few simple questions. Make sure to at least have them two sentences long.


    • What makes a good member?
    • What makes a good CK?
    • What would you like to change about Eyeson to make it better?
    • What color would you prefer your CK tag to be? (SPOILER)[leeza]Such as the Leeza tag[/leeza]
    • If you were to be thrown into the thunderdome with one of the current staff, who would you go against and what would be your tactic?
    • What does FF(and EoFF) mean to you?


    Just make a thread answering those few questions in the Mog Blog section for the first part of round one!

    The second part of Round one. You must post 3 threads in the lower forums. They can't be in the same game forum, from the same generation(NES, SNES, etc) and they have to be relevant to the forum you posted in (no nonsense spam please!). That's not all! You have to post in 10 threads in the lower forums as well, not including yours. Within your Mog Blog thread, link your three threads as well as your ten posts.

    There will be an immunity challenge this round but it's a secret! SHHHHH! Elimination depends on your answers and the quality of your threads/posts. We want CK's who like the FF games and are enthusiastic about them! Be good! The judges are watching!

    I'm Freycrest, Signing out!

    Can we have an approximate timetable in doing this? I'm moving twice this weekend, should I be spamming tonight to be done by Monday?

    EDIT: Also what Quin said.

    Making us post 10 in the lower forums is just plain unfair for people who actually frequent the lower forums and have already said what they wanted to say in those threads and would just be repeating themselves. The ones who dont frequent them regulary get the advantage of being able to throw in the two cents with which they have been scrooging away in the mind vaults.

    I only have a moderate number of postings down there so it doesnt effect me too much but I felt I should express this in the spirit of game theory

    I might have trouble with this first round if my computer is still acting up, which it is since apparently it got some malware virus This makes me a sad panda.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    I agree with blackmage_nuke. But rules are rules, damn it, so get your sorry asses down there and start contributing. Lazy smurfers.

    If ten people made three threads each in this round (as every member is being instructed to do), then you would only need to post in a third of those threads in order to achieve this target.

    With Rantz and Levian both gone from their roles as moderators, I think it's an important issue that we find the most Scandinavian candidates possible.

    Yes there shouldn't be a problem when there are 30 people making 90 threads. If you honestly have a problem making ten posts in the lower forums then, welp, I guess we know where you sit in the comp!

    Yeah... I've decided I'm going to quit this contest. I need to focus on cleaning up my computer because of this trojan I suddenly got, and I'm also running that screen name tournament as well. Sorry to disappoint everyone!
