Let me elaborate on the tournament. It would take place over a couple of months with a new round each month. In each round, there will be a theme/story/topic for each participant to make a submission for (i.e. Round 1: draw your character in armor/preparing for a battle). There will be an overall story for the tournament that each round will go along with and will eventually lead to a climatic ending.
Each participant will be paired off with another and they will become a team for the tournament. They will have to collaborate on their submissions for certain rounds (not all of them).
After the rounds, we will choose winners for the tournament.
So let us know if you're interested, as soon as possible so we can start working on it.
As you should have seen, I just posted a new poll about a Tournament for the group. I just recently took part in a Tournament in another group and I thought it was pretty fun. Now I want to know if you're interested in one for the next couple of months after May. I need a lot of people to take part in it for sure, I can't have a lot of people saying "hmmm mayhap I'll take part". We need definites or it can't happen - we're going to pair off members who would need to collab on their submissions for each round so we need people to be active. A couple of members asked about more interaction for the next event, and I think this is as interactive as you can get without meeting each other in person and playing a round of touch football. So please let me know what you think and VOTE and COMMENT on the poll!

Alright, I have to point out some more things with character profiles. I'm still seeing some of the same problems but here's my biggest one (I've seen this on so many profiles, including ones that aren't in this group - i.e. those Mary-Sue's floating around dA)
Manhattan/New York City
I understand that people like to have their character live in the area because "Percy lives there" or it's close to CHB or something like that. But please, for the love Glob, PLEASE do your goddamn research! As a native New Yorker who understand the city and what it takes to live there, nothing pisses me off more than seeing unrealistic New Yorkers. First off, living in Manhattan is a dream of mine (I go to school in Manhattan and hang out there all the time, but I live in one of the other boroughs). Do you know WHY it is a dream?! Because it is balls expensive to live in Manhattan and so many people don't seem to understand that. Lianna lives in Manhattan, but they live in a tiny, two bed-room apartment (she shares a room with her sister and her brother sleeps on the couch when he stays over - though he has his own apartment (shared with two roommates) in Brooklyn. Never mind the fact that her step-father is a construction worker with the union who make a decent amount of money). Living in Manhattan is very expensive, especially in certain areas (i.e. Chelsea, Upper East/West Sides, the Village), and ESPECIALLY certain types of apartments (i.e. condos, penthouses, big apartments, flats). You have to be paid a good amount of money to afford to live in Manhattan (which is why I always thought it was rather unrealistic where Percy lived and the job his mother had). So please, do your research on NYC and stop just dropping your character in Manhattan. If you absolutely have to have them live in NYC, pick one of the cheaper boroughs (-_-)
Alright guys, it's May now and the Capture the Flag game is officially over. Since we just had a big event in the group, we're going to do something really simple for May and just have a regular old theme that you can do. We'll have two for the month - one regular theme and one that I want to have just because - so you'll have a choice.
-So the theme for this month is anything having to do with Pegasi. Your character can be participating in the Pegasus Lessons that they have a CHB, they can just be flying around on one, anything.
-So as some of you may know, I'm a HUGE comic book geek and I'm crazy excited about the Avengers movie coming out this Friday. So you can do anything with this theme really; your character going to see the movie, your character in an alternate universe where they are a costumed superhero - anything, so long as it has something to do with the Avengers or costumed superheroes.
So that's it for this month. Thanks again for participating in the Capture the Flag games, don't forget to claim your prizes.
Sorry I haven't done this so far, I kept forgetting to. I plan on doing this every month, so remind me if I forget.
