team_str1d3rs3xu4l | Start of Bonus Round Zero! (Reply)

Bonus Round Zero was announced at midnight and we’re more or less ready to get at ‘em!

Alright, so the clarify, br0 is the first bonus round and is the only one to take place before the games. As to create a sense of comradery between the teams and maintain the spirit of HSO, they have it set up so that we are only allowed to make fills for another ship. This is super awesome for reasons I listed in an earlier post.

If you didn’t read the posts on the HSO main page, catch up here. The bonus rounds are rounds in which prompts are provided to the entire team where each person may submit an entry, or multiple entries for points.

The first bonus round requires us to make a set of 2-6 icons and/or 1-3 banners for another ship. The first five submissions per team will receive ten points each, and each subsequent submission will receive five, however, anything past the eleventh submission will not receive points.

Here, have a neat explanation in a simple form!

Submission #1 = 10 pts
Submission #2 = 10 pts
Submission #3 = 10 pts
Submission #4 = 10 pts
Submission #5 = 10 pts
Submission #6 = 5 pts
Submission #7 = 5 pts
Submission #8 = 5 pts
Submission #9 = 5 pts
Submission #10 = 5 pts
Submission #11 = 0 pts

Cool! First, I want to request that we all put in something for the bonus round. It may seem sort of annoying and maybe even overwhelming but icons and banners are generally very easy to make. (Bear in mind that you can use fan art previously created as long as you have permission from the artist!) I would like to fill the maximum amount of submissions for points at ten fills, which would mean that five of us would make one entry and three of us would make two. Additionally, I’d really like it if all of us would do a different ship so that we get to spread the love liberally.

Here is the base list I will be using to keep track of who is doing what ship. Please contact me with two of your preferred ships and if you are willing to/are considering submitting twice.
