I've been brain storming ideas during the slow time we've been having at work and I wanted to do something to boost activity in the compo forum since I'm the mod and all.

Basically I've come up with this idea of a basically a compo league.

I kind of want to get an idea of who would be down for it. I'd like atleast 8 people to have a proper "league" feel to it, but would certainly take more if more people were interested.

So allow me to break it down....


THE EBL COMPO LEAGUE

What Is It?

It's a league where the competitors pit their diary writing skills up against each other, one-on-one.

Each week, a scenario will be presented. It could ask you to write a whole show or it could just be to write out several segments as part of one storyline and then just one blow off match. It will all depend on the scenario.

At this point I'm still deliberating if every battle will have the same scenario or if each battle will have different scenarios.

A deadline will be placed (ample time will be given, most likely we'll be doing one per week) and you have until that deadline to post your entry to the "battle."

Once both competitors have posted their entry - it will be open to the public for voting. Anyone at EBL will be able to vote on their favorite of the two. The voting will be public, since I will also be a competitor in the league.

Scoring

The winning entry will receive 2 points.
The losing entry will receive 0 points.
If so happen the voting ends in a tie, both competitors will be rewarded 1 point.
If an entry is not posted by the deadline, you will receive -1 points.

Post Season

Obviously this part is still being tinkered with and it will depend on how many people sign up. But we'll just assume we get the minimum 8 people I want. 4 people would make it to the playoffs to compete in a single elimination tournament to crown the champion.

What kind of committment will this take?

It's not a huge committment. Like I stated, there will be ample time for the deadline. The most you would have to do is a complete show, but most scenarios will be a few segments/matches as part of one storyline.


That being said...who is willing to commit to this? If you want, go ahead and let me know if you want in.

Something to showcase writing skills without having to put out full shows one after the other or commit to one thing for a long period of time?

This screams me. I'm in.
