What is required of Participants!
The Snarry Games looks for the following in their Champions:
1. Teamwork.
This is NOT an individual event - participants will be part of teams, which will be assigned within two days of the close of the Sign Up Post. Once you are assigned to a team you will receive instructions via email on how to join your team comms and when your Genre(s) and Prompt(s) are to be chosen. To be part of these teams you will need to want to be involved - perhaps offer to art beta, provide support, take part in team strategy, pimp your team's entries, or by commenting.
2. Commitment.
Competition in the Snarry Games is a BIG commitment. Please think carefully about whether you are prepared to make this commitment before signing up. The output of this fest is judged by the audience. As part of your team, your contribution directly affects your team's performance and their success. We are seeking participants who want to work together to strive to produce the BEST they possibly can in a cooperative environment. Your team wants a Gold Medal effort.
3. Communication.
This cannot be stressed enough. The mods are all friendly, supportive people who want to make this Games a fun and successful activity for EVERYONE involved. Your team members will also want to work with you and seek your active input throughout the fest. Everyone will be expected to respect each other, as well as the mods, and appreciate that we're all human with a lot of time and effort invested in making this fest a success.
Not everyone works well within this kind of fest structure. If you have any doubts about your commitment, capacity to work with a team, dedication to producing your best, or the willingness to communicate in a mature and constructive fashion, this may not be the fest for you. Not everyone participates on the same level, but our goal is to promote community and teamwork. This can be done quietly or loudly!
If you can honestly commit the time, enthusiasm and energy to contributing to the Games, understanding all of the above, then please copy and paste the following into a comment on this post.
Name and/or InsaneJournal user name and/or LiveJournal User Name:
Guaranteed/Reliable Email for confirmation: [at] [dot]

IMPORTANT NOTES:
If you have dropped out of a Snarry Games previously, you will not be eligible for the sign ups unless you have received dispensation from the maintainer,
Team size will depend on overall participation, and we hope to include everyone. Previous years have seen between 70-80 participants. Should the response this year exceed those numbers by a significant amount, we will then employ a lottery system. In the event a lottery is necessary, any artist who is not assigned a team will be placed on the Alternate list. Any alternate who does not get called into service during the Games will be invited to submit Crack!Art for the Closing Games Ceremonies.
Thank you all, and GOOD LUCK!
ETA: SIGN UPS ARE NOW CLOSED, THANK YOU!
Artists - watch your emails in the next two days!
