[PXFIRE] Welcome to your summer event: POKEMON CROSSFIRE!

And that's another thing we'd like to see as well. Judges need to justify awarded points with at least some feedback for every entry. Not "results: Submission A - 3 Points, B - 2 Points, C - 1 Points, have a nice day." There's got to be something that explains that and why the judge felt Submission A was better than B and so on. We're not asking for a huge narrative about every bitty detail, but at least a good paragraph of explanation is important.

I agree. It wouldn't hurt to have some form of feedback from judges. You'd be able to understand what you did well and figure out where you can improve.

I didn't mean 2 winners for each catagory, I meant over all.

For instance if in drawing Team A won first, Team B won second and team C won third, they would then in turn get one "gold" one "silver" and "bronze" point. Over the four weeks The team would count up how many gold/silver/bronze points they have, then combine them for an "medal victory" (I can't think of a better name) so that a team wins PXFIRE by being the team that placed most in the top 3 across the board.

On the other hand, say Team A only had one person participate in drawing, while Team B had 3 and Team C had four. For every person they would get one "team point" or "participation point" per week. Then at the end of the four weeks the teams would tally up their participation points and whichever had the most would be the "activity winner" for successfully getting the most people to do the most things. (encouraging people to try new things.

This wouldn't put any real extra stress on the judges at all since the "medal" points are already just the same method as picking top 3 winners
for each category, while participation is just counting how many people per team put in an entry that week.

I think I understand where you're coming from. Although you'd already be receiving points for participating, you're saying that there should be a some type of participation award given at the conclusion of PXFIRE. That would encourage teams to encourage its members to participate in the given challenges rather than simply relying on members to participate. However, I'm assuming that if you sign up for PXFIRE, you're probably going to participate regardless. xD

I'm pretty sure feedback from Judges was already a thing in WAR. At least it was in the drawing section.

It would be pretty safe to assume if you sign up you'll participate, but it also incorporates people's ability to become engaged in new areas. I mean, HKim Invited me to Join WAR even before I knew PXR was a thing. As such they increased player activity and would've gotten more participation points for their team. Or on the other hand someone might convince me to attempt Digital art even though i usually prefer traditional art. It expands people's horizons and engages them in activities they might not have done otherwise.
