...and oooops I almost forgot the next round of our popular TOTM. I had a serious sickness and today was my first day at work since more than a week. When I wrote the date the first time today I immediately realized I forgot "something". Sorry all and happy voting
Like every month, I hope that a lot of users will vote and wish all participants good luck!
Rules: The nominations are the 5 highest rated teases. If two webteases have the same rating, the webtease which have more votes will participate.
If two or more teases have the same amount of votes after the voting period, a second voting will happen. Only the teases with the most votes can participate and the voting time is decreased to two days, to grant the winner's tease as much as possible time on our front page.
Only one tease per author can participate. We'll take only the best rated tease for authors with multiple qualifying teases.
The voting system should be separated from the webtease itself. Hence webteases encouraging a vote for the TOTM to manipulate the system will not be nominated at the end of the month regardless of ranking.
The prize is a special user rank in our forum and a mark in the "Browse Teases" area. Also the tease will be able to participate to the "Tease of the year" contest.
Winner's Name
If your tease is nominated, please don't make any changes until the voting period is over, or you risk being disqualified.
If any issues happen that are not clarified by these rules the team of Milovana has the right and the the duty to adjust the rules for finding the best and most fair solution to overcome this issue. There is no way for participants to affect a decision by the team, except the team of Milovana asks for it.
Thanks! That is exactly the sort of things that helps motivates me to make part 3. I've actually made some good progress on part 3, so expect to see Nikki back again in a rather long new tease before too long.
edit by dark: read the rules carefully.
The voting system should be separated from the webtease itself. Hence webteases encouraging a vote for the TOTM to manipulate the system will not be nominated at the end of the month regardless of ranking.
This rule is also valid for forum posts or anything else.
Next time your tease will be excluded from the nomination. Play fair, please...
reflog1, part 3 will be in the regular, non-flash format. There are a number of reasons for that... people seem to respond more to non-flash teases, it's a way faster format for me to create, and it works quite a bit better than flash when you want to include links to external sites in the tease. Oh, and I like getting votes and a ranking score.
Overall, progress on it is good... the pics are all ready, and the text is 90% done. The only sticking point is that I need to find one external video clip that matches a particular scene in the tease. It seemed like it should be easy to find, but it's turning out to take a lot more searching around than expected.
In general, it's going to feature a lot of stroking, combining a few different ideas (another math quiz, some rhythm, etc.). Not too much CBT and that sort of thing. And it'll be longer than the last one.
