Update of Sad-10/10/09- I don't beleive we have any Geheim Designs and It is past the due date. If anyone has a design, please note us with the link to the design soon. Also, Auditions. We only have one audition and ref so far and the ref due date is in just over a week. The only audition we've received is from with [link] and her audition piece-[link]


Update (9/10/09): New Affiliate -

Hello, loyal watchers!

Yes, I know. we haven't updated since July. This doesn't mean we're ditching the tournament, rather we were trying to work with the tournament more offline to make it a better experience for everyone.
Unfortunately, due to Artists' blosk on my part, our lovable master of ceremonies has yet to get a decent design.
Bad news? For me, yes. For you guys, hellz no! Because this means a contest is in order!

You heard me right, we're holding a contest to design Geheim Duister! Here's how the game is played:
Below, I've got a little description of the MC's personality, age, everything you'll need to know for your design. It doesn't have to be in color, since I can make the official ref sheet for this guy later, but if it is colored, even better. (less work for me!) My brother and I will judge the entries and pick our top 3, then leave it up to the others. The people who wish to enter the OCT will decide what Geheim will look like in the end. I will do a commission for each of the top-3 winners, but the obvious prize is that the overall winner will get their design used in the OCT itself.

Designs are due September 28th!
That's 3 weeks from now!

The top-3 results will likely be out on October 5th
The winner will be announced October 12th

We'll get back to the details on Geheim soon, right now, AUDITIONS!
I've seen we already have a reference sheet up for a character, but now the auditions will officially open. As explained before, there will be 2 due dates for this. The first being a reference sheet due date, and the second being an overall due date. It is suggested you reserve religions to use now, or you might lose it. Also, if you do not submit your reference sheet by the first due date, you automatically forefeit your reserved religion, just to make sure you're sticking with the tournament for us. So, here are the finally-scheduled dates:

Reference Sheet Date: October 19th
Overall Date: November 2nd
Get working on those auditions!

Now, Geheim info:

Name: Geheim Duister
Age: 37
Gender: Male
Height: 5'4" (short)
Weapons: Status (?)
Status: Rich, somewhat mad

Personality: Geheim can be seen as a somewhat toned-down Mad Hatter. He's rather upbeat and pleasant, even in the most peculiar or tragic situations, and is ever found without a teacup flled with coffee (he'll deny that, but it's really black coffee, not Earl Grey tea). He tends to give of an intimidating aura, though he doesn't really know why. After all, he is dedicating his time and money to achieve peace in the world by negotiating one major conflict.

Wardrobe: If you can find "Gothic Aristocrat" on google images, that would fit his wardobe perfectly. Gothic Aristocrat is basically the male version of Goth Loli. Mostly black, a bit of red, and maybe some violet would be the basic colors or anything he'd wear.

If you need any more info on Geheim, please don't hesitate to note this account, or my account (link below, obviously)

Tauros, out!

Hello, loyal watchers!

For an OCT that started little over a week ago, we're doing pretty well so far. We're going to have to end our search for judges, since we already have our 6. Lyre, Raijin, and Xuan Wu already have their reference sheets up, check them out! We're just waiting on Hermes, Ixtab, and Bastest. Don't fret, anyone who made a judge and didn't get it in yet! We're still accepting NPCs, so your characters can still be in the middle of the entire thing! ^^

We may not need judges, butwe do need prize donators. We haven't really started looking for people to draw or donate a subscription to the winner, runner-up, etc. yet (because we've been focusing on judges Dx ) but please note us or leave us a comment if you're at all interested. Remember, we can't do this all without your support here!

Also, we need to get the word around. Any OCT owners checking this journal out? Would you like to len a poor, 8-day-old little OCT an affiliation? Pleeeeeaaase???
We'd like to affiliate with other tournaments, no matter how big or small. Getting the word out to people of not only our tournament, but of others, will really help all of us. So please guys, you scratch our back, we scratch your's. Please please please affiliate! x3

I think that's it for now, if there's anything we're missing and you can hep with, don't hesitate to note us!

Tauros, out!
