[Epilogue]

Welcome to the TNYvsFDD clan battle information thread. Before we skip to the information, please read all the rules and information before asking a question and posting.

1. Do not spam.
   Spam: Stupid Pointless Annoying Message
   If you do spam, beware and prepare to meet my wrath. I do bite when I must.
   
   
2. Please, if you are going to not be here for a battle, post all your work before you leave so we can count you in for the battles you signed up for.
   
   
3. If you have a problem with anything, please feel free to Private Message anyone of the four mantainers of this battle, a.k.a Eclipse, Shiro-chan, .Oathkeeper. or *Oathkeeper*(Currently she is MIA because she is on a trip so PM the other two, Shiro, Eclipse or .Oath. if you have any questions for now).
   
   
   
4. If you have read the rules, please put for your "title" of the post "Purple". It's a random word, but hey, it shows that you ACTUALLY read the rules, right?

Current information about members:

*Oathkeeper*: She is MIA and is on a trip with her family and won't be back for a bit, but she'll be back in time for the battle hopefully.

Shiro-chan : Will be gone by the end of this week and will not be on until next week, wednesday night for a few hours. She will be busy attending to her new baby niece and her pregnant aunt while she is at Viet Nam visiting family.

HeartlessWhisper : Will be leaving sometime next week or so, around the 28th of July and might not be able to participate in the AMV herself but she will give me her work for all the things she applied for.

Keybreaker : This upcoming weekend (Saterday, 22nnd of July and Sunday 23rd) he will be very busy and may not be able to show up to the first battle. So he had messaged me about this about this and it is fine by me if another member from within his clan FDD presents or turns in his work to one of the maintainers.

Sweet Raine : Due to some family related problems, it looks like Sweet Raine may not participate in the battle, Feel better!

Tux_ : Will not be here during his match or during the AMV but nonetheless, he will be back from his little vacation to participate in the clan collaboration.

If anyone else has anything to tell me about themselves as for example, if they must go somewhere or might not here for a long period of time due to some mishap or vacation, post it or PM it. Thanks.

The Lowdown

Essentially, just a free-for-all sig battle, a la SotW.
Make it whatever theme you like, just as
long as you follow the rules below.

The Rules

1) Absolutely no nudity/profanity/obscene material
is to be used in the sig. The limits of this will
be determined by clan leaders.
2) Make it able to fit in a sig--less than 600px wide,
less than 500px tall. If it goes beyond these
dimensions because of grey boxing around a .png
type sig, this is allowed.
3) Text must be included.
4) Original stock must be provided
as comparison--to see how much work you did
to make an original graphic.

The Theme

Up to you, as long as it follows the rules
as listed above. Freestyle means free to choose your
own style!

AMV BATTLE:
Round Two:: Saterday, July 29th, 2006

This battle was pushed back due to some people and their request for the date of this battle to be changed. This will be due next week friday night. PM or post your YouTube link here. Thank you for your time.

The Theme for this battle:

Kingdom Hearts, of course. You are to make an AMV
using our uniting factor: Kingdom Hearts I, CoM, and II.
You may use clips from any and all of these.
You do not have to include them all--you can have
it be exclusively KH1 or KH2, if you like.
It's up to you.

The Battles:

Your opponent is the person above you or under you that is in the same number. Like for example Shiro is going against Eclipse and vice-versa.

Eclipse

2. Chaywa
HeartlessWhisper

3. Monkeybutt
Meilin


4. .Oathkeeper.

5. *Oathkeeper*
cloud_leingod

The Lowdown:
Each member in the round will create an AMV using whatever
program they like (be it Windows Movie Maker, Premiere, Vegas,
or whatever program the member might prefer). These will both
be posted on YouTube for easy voting.

The Rules for this battle:

You may pick the song, but no swearing, cursing,
or offensive material whatsoever.
Any AMVs that break this rule will be
immediately disqualified.

Please keep your AMV under 4:00. If you need some
extra time to include credits, that is acceptable.

Do not use rap. Sorry, guys--if there are no real
melodic vocals, it will not count.

Effects must be kept simple--no beat
flashes, fancy blending, or anything of the sort.
Use of effects such as fades, color changing,
and black and white are permitted.

The Rules

1) The work must be 600x600 pixels or larger--

The Lowdown

"Variations" are a form of rules set on this portion of
the competition. They are explained below, and each
icon must follow these rules exactly. Two
extra icons may be submitted if you think
they will aid your votes, and these two may
be freestyle.

The Rules
1) You MUST use the stock given at the beginning of
the round. Where it is positioned is up to you.
2) Each of your ten icons must be posted
in one canvas, in the order as specified
in the variation specs below.

3) Each of your ten icons must obey these
specifications:

01. In the first icon you have to use
the original image unresized.
02. In the second icon you have to
rotate the original image.
03. In the third icon you have to desaturate
the original image (unless it's already b/w).
04. In the fourth icon you have to mirror
the original image either horizontally
or vertically.
05. In the fifth icon you have to use
the original image at least
twice noticeably.
06. In the sixth icon you have to alter
the color of the original image
(b/w images have to be colored in,
color images may be desaturated).
07. In the seventh icon you have to
be able to see the whole
original image.
08. In the eighth icon you have to use at
least one texture or stock image.
09. In the ninth icon you have to use only
the original image (no text,
brushes, gradients or other images),
which you may use as
often and distort it in any way
as you wish. Every layer of
your icon must be
the original image.
10. In the tenth icon you have
to make the two sides of the icon
differ in length (ie no square).

The Theme

The theme will be decided by the stock that is
given at the beginning of the round, but know that
the image will be Kingdom Hearts related.

Selected picture for this event.

More FDDmembers participating in this battle would be nice.


Fanfiction:
The due date for this has not been decided yet, but it will be soon.

• Shiro-chan
• darkriku14
• Chaywa
• Meilin
• Monkeybutt
• .Oathkeeper.
• *Oathkeeper*

The Lowdown

Participants will write a one-shot (aka, one-chapter) story
that will be, of course, Kingdom Hearts related.
The fic must follow the rules below.

The Rules

1) You must choose one of these two:
KH2 OPENING and KH ENDING
2) You must then write a one-shot based on
the topic you pick. You may do it from
your standpoint or from the POV
of one of the participating characters.
3) Be creative!

The Theme

Kingdom Hearts II's opening and Kingdom Hearts II's ending. Enough said. ^_^

ATTENTION: Any FDD members that are not participating in this battle, please if you have noticed, you guys are low on the amount of people participating in this battle since there are only two people actually trying this out from your clan. The more people, the more chance you guys will win and hey, why not give this a try?

CLAN COLLABORATION
This is the last event and should be started as soon as you want.

Defintion of collaboration for those who don't know what it is:
refers abstractly to all processes wherein people work together

You can look it up in wiki and see the same definition there if you don't believe me.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Lowdown

The clan will decide to do one of the projects listed
above, but each member must participate somehow.
This can be one of any of the above--sig, splash,
icons, fiction, or AMV.

The Rules

1) Each member must somehow provide proof
of their submission to the project.
This could be a screenshot of the open
project in Photoshop or WMM, with
Paint-scribbles showing where
their work is.
2) EACH MEMBER MUST PARTICIPATE.


The Theme

This will be decided after each clan decides what
type of project they undertake.
