Welcome to Big Boards. Big Boards at one time offered the Zathyus network our long famous Resource Archives, our extensive search indexes, and our info-packed resource forums. Eventually, these were made redundant by upgrades to the documentations and expanded search features added to the ZetaBoards software, and this forum then lost relevancy and subsequently became inactive.

Our team then embarked on a new project called Planet Nexus, where a bold new experiment in forum promotion is taking place. We call it nexworking. NexusTree offers social networking pages for forums in a fully automated format. Your NexusTree page is created instantly when your join the nexus. Find out more by visiting Planet Nexus, and become part of the nexworking revolution.

Mini Battle Of The Boards

Now then, this is a minified version of Big Boards wonderous Battle Of The Boards competition. This one though, does not offer high-end, cool, and awesome, prizes. It will only offer you credits or a registered member.

1st place will choose one or the other.

2nd place will get the other one.

The registered member is me. I am NOT required to post though. Your board MUST allow Guests to view the board. This competition is NOT used for advertising. At the end of the competition, 3 boards will be chosen, and voted upon by the members of Big Boards. Credits will vary, depending on how many I have. But, the set-bottom amount is 100 Credits. Not that much, but, I don't have that much at the moment. The boards will be judged upon the same guidelines as the real Battle Of The Boards. This competition is mostly for you to see faults in your board, and to make it better. This will also help you to make your board better for the real Battle Of The Boards. Here is how your boards will be judged.

* Appearance and Design
* First Impressions
* Ease of Navigation
* Interesting Content
* Uniqueness

Also note that you must also abide by these rules, which are also taken from the real Battle Of The Boards. But, just altered a little bit, seeing as how this is the minified version.

* You may only register one board into the competition.
* Using multiple accounts to vote will result in an immediate elimination.
* Your board must have a total of 5 members and 100 posts to enter this competition.
* If your board is deleted, closed, or offline during this competition it will be disqualified.
* Most sections of your board must be viewable to guests. Remember that your board will be judged based upon what guests can see.
* Recruiting your members to vote for your board is something we expect and encourage. In fact, you may shamelessly recruit voters from wherever you like. Just as long as you're not bribing Big Boards members to vote. We want this to be mostly fair, if not completely.

Note: If the Admin's don't want this challenge, feel free to delete it.

Edit: The competition will end in 1 Weeks Time from THIS post. Then, I will create a poll.

BBBF Worthiness Award

1000 credits is hereby awarded to Chireru for a great idea. If you have a smaller board that doesn't qualify for the official BOTB, this is a great opportunity to get feedback on your board. At the conclusion of this challenge, I will make additional credit prize awards to the first and second place winners.

1st place will be awarded 500 credits from the BBBF
2nd place will be awarded 250 credits from the BBBF

if we do not have 3 boards by the end date, the end date will be extended for another week...

this'll help you guys to get your boards more in shape...

Chireru, why don't you put a notice about the mini BOTB with a link to this topic in the Community Exchange Forum or Admin to Admin (either one would be appropriate). It might be seen by more members there. :)

So is there a maximum number of people allowed on the board?
The first time I read this I got the impression it was for smaller boards to enter, but now I don't see where I felt that...

I'd like to enter http://www.hogwartsrp.com (Hogwarts New Zealand)
If it meets the requirements :) ^_^

I guess it would be easy to read it as "Battle of the Mini-Boards" :lol:

I don't see any upper-end size restriction in the rules either.

the only restrictions are on board smallness...

if your board has too few posts or members, then you can't enter it...

otherwise, it should be qualified...

put it this way though, ok...

if you qualify for the regular BOTB, you'll qualify for this one...
