Realm Race (RR3) Signups & Info

Instructions

It's time for the third season of RR, Realm Race! Here's an explanation of the rules. First of all, thanks to ag9876 for algodungeons, as it was a fairly big inspiration for this. Now, anyway: THE THEME This season's name reveals a bit about its theme, but I'll explain further - in this competition, contestants will travel through multiple 'realms'. These realms are represented by areas of the world, and you can travel between realms via portals. Of course, you will have to complete a challenge in each realm. The camp will have a sort of RPG theme to it (so yeah ag9876 was the inspiration). ELIMINATIONS Eliminations will be what makes this the most unique season of RR yet. What is so special about the eliminations this season? Well, there are no teams. There's also... no voting. This season, all challenges will be AUTOMATIC ELIMINATION - or at least, they will be at the start, I might change how they work later into the game. CHALLENGES This season will have two types of challenge. Creativity and luck? Well, creativity yes, but luck no. In an auto-elimination camp, luck challenges would be extremely unfair. So what is the second type of challenge then? I won't reveal that yet, although I would like to see your guesses on what the second type of challenge is. STORY This will be the most story-themed of all the RR seasons. Contestants will venture through realms and discover many things along the way. Almost every challenge will relate to the story in some way. I won't reveal too much though. GOLD Contestants receive different amounts of gold (the currency) depending on their challenge placements. Gold can then be used to buy items from the shop, which I will get into later. I will give you a pre-warning, although buying items may help you early on, later into the competition gold will become far more valuable, and you'll want to have as much of it as possible going into phase 2. THE SHOP Yep, this season has a shop too! It's a bit different from RR's shop though. There will be no price decreasing/increasing, prices will stay the same. Tokens are no longer given out, of course, due to the auto-elimination style, but contestants will still have inventories for the items they have bought. DNPING How will DNPers be taken care of this season? Well, it's auto-eliminations, so of course, DNPing means automatic elimination. What if multiple people DNP? Then they will ALL BE ELIMINATED. EXCUSING Now, contestants could cheat by excusing every challenge, so how will I prevent that? Well, it'll be obvious when a contestant tries to do that, so I just won't let them. Also, if you excuse, you won't get any gold, and you'll see why you'll need it later... QUITTING Finally, quitting. DNPers are just eliminated, that's it. However, if someone quits, they will be replaced by a new user - however, this is only for the early game. Later on, quitters will simply be eliminated. You should be familiar with how replacement works. REJOINS Yep, that's right - rejoins! There may be rejoins this season - I'm not confirming it, but there is a decent chance there will be. What the rejoins will be is going to be revealed later. A AND B EPISODES This will work differently - each episode won't have an A and a B like the previous seasons. As there is no voting, each episode will be in one - although, some challenges may be split into multiple parts, and if that happens, there will be As and Bs. HOSTS You should already know who the hosts are - as Turquoise, as Cyan and, of course, me as Blue! Yellow will not be cohosting this time. Turquoise and Cyan will be helping judge all creativity challenges - however, they won't be able to judge the other, less common type of challenge. SIGNUPS Signups are fairly simple. They last for two weeks, so this season won't start too soon after the previous one, and also to give people who are away time to see this. Colours are first come, first serve. There is an unlimited number of contestant slots so as many people can sign up as they want. That's the end of the explanation. Let's see how S3 goes!
