<span class="mu-s">RULES FOR ENTRY</span>
-Per tradition, each Jam has a thematic prompt which QMs must follow in order to qualify for the awards at the end of the Jam. This Skirm Jam's theme, however, is all jumbled up! <span class="mu-i">Heyyy, how'd that happen?!?</span> Anyway, the brave and virile QMs who accept the challenge of the Skirm Jam must pick <span class="mu-i">at least</span> TWO (2) subjects from the following word bank to thematically include or strongly feature in their Skirm Jam entry!
<span class="mu-b"><span class="mu-s">Word Bank:</span></span>
<span class="mu-r">-MYSTERY -OVERENGINEERED</span>
<span class="mu-r">-BACTERIA -DEITY</span>
<span class="mu-r">-LAUGHTER -VEGETABLE</span>
<span class="mu-r">-PLETHORA -INCEL</span>
-All QM's must submit their "character creation/selection" AND rules sheet(s) for the players to play by. To qualify to participate, you must post them in the form of an image or detailed text post in this thread before the deadline, JANUARY 1st, 2023, 8:00AM UTC, to qualify to participate in the Jam. You are allowed to have hidden mechanics and rules, and make some tweaks along the way, but you must post a working version of your rules your players will be using.
-Original, new ideas from scratch only! No re-runs, rip-offs or continuations of previous skirmishes. Let the creative juices flow and breathe life into something new!
-TWO (2) Skirmishes will be <span class="mu-r">r</span><span class="mu-g">a</span>n<span class="mu-b">d</span><span class="mu-r">o</span><span class="mu-g">m</span>l<span class="mu-b">y</span> chosen to run at a time, every TWO (2) weeks, until all entrants have completed their run. Please try to wrap up within your two weeks, so players get a chance to experience and judge all entries equally. Your skirmish may continue after the two weeks alotted, but it can only be judged for what occurs within the first two weeks of it. Keep your fellow QM, and the Spirit of the Jam in mind.
-Awards will be given out at the end of the Jam, after every entrant's skirmish has run. These awards will be voted on by the community of /qst/ers who Jammed out!
I am Fae Smelter, Herald of this Skirm Jam. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them here in this thread, or in the Skirmish Discord. Joining the Discord can be helpful (and fun), but is not necessary for participation - everything pertinent to the Skirm Jam, including instructions and any updates, will be posted here in this thread.
