Tee Battle Sign Up!

posted 2 months ago by jimmyheartcore

Hey dudes.

Tee Battle 2008.

32 or 64 entrants.

Every single entrant has to offer up a prize. A bag of candy is a perfect prize if you’re poor / cheap.

So, everyone who enters needs to:

A.) Choose three topics. The first round, you will get one of your own topics - therefore the first round your opponent will not have the same topic as you. Choose good ones! Don’t pick lame topics.

B.) Offer up a prize for someone in the top 4. If you’re feeling super generous, and want to give out 4 prizes, you rule!

This is the official registration thread. If you have previously registered, you’re going to re-register here.

Registration will end at 32 entrants if we don’t receive more than 64 entries by September 21st.

Round one entrants will be matched up with similarly skilled artists. The two-sided bracket will consist of Noobz on the left, and Pros on the right. At the end, there will be a Noob Championship and a Pro Championship. The winners of the Championships will face off in a Noob vs. Pro showdown.

The first round of the 2008 Tee Battle will begin on September 28th at 9pm and end at 12pm on the following Friday.

    illdthedj said 2 months ago

    maybe just ask people whether they want to be in the noob or pro section? i think most will say appropriately what they are...

    and if a noob thinks they are a pro, well then they’ll probably do poorly.

    and if a pro says they are a noob, just call them on it cuz you probably have a good sense as to who really is a pro...

    i dunno, just throwing that out there.

    ps,
    NOOB lol

    i wholeheartedly disagree. quantity has never equaled quality, in any walk of life - including tee designs.

    there are some REALLY talented folks on here with just a few tees, and some not-so-good designers with tons of tees.

    i’d use different criteria. i think jimmy will be able to make a good judgement call on each contestant just by viewing their work.

    But you have to remember that just because what you consider quality might be different from what someone else considers quality. I’m not going to argue, just put me in the noob section. Haha.

    so someone with like 50 tees that each have 10 loves could end up in the pro category?

    I guess there’s no other way to do it, though.. I trust you < 3

    so just thought I’d bump this thread back up...
    in case anyone else forgot what they pledged as prizes.
