During September 2024, our Anime Guild commemorated its 10th Anniversary๐
To continue on such a festive mood, we would like to reminisce about our allies and friends.
To revive our our old alliances together and bring radiance upon all of us!
As such, we bring you this collaboration event with one if our Royal Marriage partners: The Anime Watching Challenges Club.
Pick your Challenge: Tournament Edition Part 1 - Tournament Phase
ใThe idea of this collaboration event is to showcase the best sides of both clubs:
ใใ— Voting Tournaments and Rankings, from us at the Anime Guild
ใใ— Challenges based on different themes, from our friends at the Anime Watching Challenges Club
ใWe decided to combine our best points as a large event, which will be done in two parts.
ใThe first part will be hosted here at the Anime Guild. It will consist of two tournaments running simultaneously, during which we will be voting on what we want to watch during second part.
ใThe second part will be hosted over at the Anime Watching Challenges Club and it will consist of a two sections challenge. On the first section, you will watch a set of limited series. On the second section, you will need to find series that fit the provided requirements. Both will be decided from the tournament on the first part of this event (the one hosted here at AG).
ใSimply speaking, its entirely up to the participants to form our own custom challenge!
ใWe strongly encourage you to participate in both of them for the best experience.
EXPLANATION
Both tournaments will consist of an 8-contender bracket format.
ใ— Contenders being either a series-based category or items-based set.
Both tournaments will have matches posted daily (24 hours approx.).
ใ— Most of the time there will be matches overlapping, so you will see two at a time.
The daily matches for both tournaments will last for 48 hours (approx.) before votes are counted and the matches are closed.
ใ— The matches will have one from from each tournament, the series-based categories and the items-based sets.
ใ— The Daily Matches will be hosted on individual threads. They will be linked in this post under the "Matches" section.
As a tournament participant, you will vote on each daily match for the one you are more inclined to participate in and/or complete.
ใ— You will receive just one vote per daily match.
To vote on each Daily Match, you will need to post on each individual thread.
ใ— Clearly state the option you are voting for, with a new reply on said thread.
The Second Part rules will be explained in detail after the first part tournament here is over. They will be shared on the thread that will be hosted at the Anime Watching Challenges Club side!
