Site Battles Help Guide

How Battles Work​

  1. Starting or Joining a Battle

    • Navigate to the Site Battle section.
    • If you want to challenge an existing site, respond to their battle thread with a link to your site.
    • If no suitable battle exists, create your own thread using the [Looking To Battle] prefix and complete the provided template.

  2. Battle Request Handling

    • Battle starters can accept or reject site submissions at their discretion.
    • If your site is accepted or you accept a challenger, change your thread prefix to [Poll Needed].

  3. Poll Creation

    • A Community Team Member will set up a poll for your battle.
    • If no poll is created within 24 hours, tag a Community Team Member to notify them.

  4. Voting and Results

    • Polls remain open for 7 days for members to vote.
    • After 7 days, the site with the most votes is declared the winner.

Prizes​

Individual Battles​

  • Two-Way Battles:

    • Winner: 25 FP$ + badge + Leaderboard listing.

  • Three-Way Battles:

    • 1st Place: 25 FP$ + badge + Leaderboard listing.

Prizes are distributed by the Community Team Member closing the battle thread. In case of ties, staff will privately vote to determine the winners.

General Rules​

  1. Topic Inactivity

    • If the original poster does not respond to an offer within 3 days, the battle request will be rejected.
    • Battle request threads remain open for 2 weeks before being archived if no challengers join.

  2. Eligibility to Battle

    • Only staff members of the entered site can participate in battles.

  3. No Bribing for Votes

    • Offering incentives for votes (real currency, services, etc.) is strictly prohibited. Violators will be banned from Site Battles and have their wins removed.

  4. Voting Requirements

    • Voters must meet undisclosed minimum activity and post count requirements to ensure fairness.

  5. Multiple Battles

    • A site may participate in unlimited battles but can only have 3 active [Looking To Battle] threads at any time.

  6. Multi-Site Battles

    • A maximum of 3 sites can compete in a single battle.

  7. Private Voting

    • Voting is confidential; no one can see who voted for which site.

  8. Tie Breaking

    • In case of a tie, 3 staff members will privately vote to decide the winner.

  9. Dead or Inactive Sites

    • Sites with dead links, suspended accounts, or closed forums will be removed from the Leaderboard and lose their badges.

New Updates​

  • Leaderboard Maintenance: Forums with dead links or banned/deleted accounts will be removed.
