General How to Run a Contest Hall

Contest Hall Owners are paid 20,000poke every Sunday. The minimum payout to one or all of you coordinators combined is 10,000poke*.
*The payout to one or all participants is determined by the owner of the hall.

The reason being for Senior Rank or above is so that you can be trusted to return to the site when people either challenge your hall and also reply to the messages within a reasonable duration of time. This meaning, you receive email notifications (edit your notification settings) when someone replies to your posts, or that you frequent the site at least once a week (every other day if in a thread). Only one “badge awarding thread” is allowed at a time in the gym. (Other threads in the halls that do not result in a badge being earned are perfectly acceptable)

To start a competition, simply start a new thread. Next when titling the thread, be sure at the end to place in hard brackets [OPEN] (these are the equivalent to registering for slots in the arena). Open stands for any trainer willing to compete can compete, and as the slots fill up, replace “OPEN” with the user’s name indicating the slot has been taken. Place as many OPENs as you want in your contest (four slots usually is sufficient for contests)

Be sure to message Akane to change up your mascot on the side's message. (To indicated Closed, Open threads, Open for pm requests, etc.)

*if too many people post in your thread refer them to the rules section or simply pm them that they were too slow to snap up one of your spots and that they will have to wait for the next contest. However, visitors or spectators to your events are more than welcome unless specified.

---

When you start your thread, some small stats at the bottom of your first post should indicate any favoritism you will have. For example: +1 points for a shiny, or -4 point for a fire type move in an ice hall or something that makes sense in your hall.

*Be sure to let your contestants know if it is a double or single pokemon contest.

Drop hints about your contest and what you expect to see in your first thread. For example a contest hall judge may say, “dazzling moves” means they want their contestants to choreograph beautiful moves. It is then the member’s job to write a beautiful, vivid image of their trainer and pokemon using both words and pictures.

It is your job to lead the contestants in character. If you have more than one event, make it clear throughout your posting. For instance when one round ends, have your character say something like, “and now it’s time for the salsa dance competition!” Lead your contestants through your contest and then once you have picked the best member, award them with a congratulatory post and a badge!

*Types with a line through them have been taken
*Types with reserved next to them have been asked for, but are not permanent, so if a better candidate asks for it, it can be given to someone else.

The application for your board is below.


[b]Name of the Hall:[/b] What will you call your contest hall?

[b]Location:[/b] Where do you want to put it? Tell me what city, board, kingdom, territory, etc. you want your hall’s board to be.

[b]Type and Mascot Pokemon:[/b] What type is your hall? What is the pokemon mascot (if there is one)? This is mainly for prestige.

[b]Badge:[/b] Can make your own, or choose one of the official game’s badges. You can actually award people these badges so make it look nice! Or if you want to ask other members for a special badge, pm them or place it a request in the “other” board.

[b]Brief Description:[/b] Describe everything! The stage, the building inside and out, EVERYTHING!

[b]Spectator posting?[/b] This is for non-contest members wanting to post in your thread. Yes or No


Team Rocket *WIP*

This organization’s front includes several store chains, casinos, and café chains; however it is a shallow front for an illegal, underground pokemon market. The marketing wouldn’t be illegal, except the grunts and admins have caught numerous times for stealing pokemon.

For now, the organization has remained inactive in Asemon, and only the admin and a few grunts have begun to scout and feel about the country. The team consists of an unknown mass of grunts, three admins, and the overall leader of the organization.

Executive: Zandrophin

Admins: [Aeronwen][OPEN][OPEN]

Important members: [NONE]

Grunts: [OPEN to anyone]
