Now you get the chance to go inside and see exactly what it’s like first hand as it all unfolds on a small scale as you climb towards a record deal, and collect useful prizes along the way. In a game where your skills are only half of the tools, its soon apparant that takes cunning and strategy to not just survive, but to win. Friends will become enemies, and enemies will become allies. Welcome to “The Rap Game”.

The outline: This tourney isn't like any other tourney at all, so much so that it's not even officially a tourney, it's an Event. It'll be found in the Songs forum, and you'll see why immediately. But lets get to the juicy part...

They'll appear once per round as an option that you'll be able to explore after the second round AS WELL AS randomly generated prizes from the sponsors.


The Rules:

• It's a breeze. Every round, you're given a task that must be completed in the time alloted and the guidlines listed. Sounds easy, right? It is. For now...

• Overview: Between it's acesssory the RGM, the dynamic structuring, and sea of prizes, the entire tourney is virtually alive. It can go for a minimum of 4 rounds, and a maximum of 17 rounds (if a max of 50 participants are allowed), which takes the timeline anywhere from a week or two, to 3 months if the participants decide. The moves made and Even outcomes will determine the overall length. It's literally "your call". Every round, everyone selected for elimination (there will be moments where it's more than just 1 on 1) will be interviewed for the RGM - Rap Game Magazine. Key players and heavy stat holders for such teams will also be interviewed. Please don't ask to be interviewed in the RGM. A link on the Information Menu will guide everyone to the RGM, which will be published at the start of the second round and pre H2H for every round.

• Event Descriptions: Holds the info needed to successfully complete the Event.


^^These are the ACTUAL paramaters of the first round, so consider this a head start. Clear the first round, technically round Zero, and you'll learn in deep detail what this is about:



You'll get the entire overview of the RG via this Information Menu. When the first round is over, the tourney officially begins. Everyone will be able to access information like the current specific people on the teams, the division of squads, who got eliminated, how they got eliminated, the current round, stats, member info, personal member stats, current rewards won, and team and squad win streaks. Simply press and click on what you want to learn about. Keep in mind that none of the features are currently enabled, so they're not shown here and are inactive. This will become ACTIVE immediately after the first round, and the first round will begin shortly after the maximum number of people allowed is achieved.

• Voting: At the end of every round, at least 1 person on each team will be selected to face elimination. The beauty of it is that the opposing team determines who will be facing elimination that round. YOU WILL NEVER HAVE TO VOTE FOR A SINGLE PERSON AT ANY TIME AT ALL IN THE RG! You vote AGAINST who you DON'T want. Don't vote, they don't can't eliminated. Simple as that.

The teams and/or squads will submit their unanimous vote to Lady Fiya via PM from a representative on the team. That person from each team will be pitted against one another in the Head 2 Head. The H2H is still challenge based, but also battle based where as you must not only out-do the other person, but also crush them as you fight your way out of the H2H and back onto your team. The H2H has similar guidelines as every Event does, but much tigher time limits and only one beat choice.

• Elimination: If you lose an H2H, you're gone. If you or any/all members of a team fail to complete any Event, didn't submit an H2H nomination, or went outside the guidelines, you are immediately eliminated and your team is now at a man-power disadvantage as a result of your absence as well as being more likley to be selected as the next one up for elimination. On the flip side, each member of that team has an increased likelyhood of winning prizes for them selves, so there is much to lose and gain by members falling out. there are only 3 members of this tourney who will have to vote at all and it's the "A/Rs". The Three A/R's are Apexx, Lady Fiya, and Phenominall, each representitives of the three foremost psonsors, The Rush Ent. Wild Wunz Productions, and Same Page Productions respectively. Their uncorroborated votes are objective and final.

• Who's allowed:

Anybody. You benefit from both more people AND less people and anyone that makes it beyond the first round can end up on your team. Both teams will be evenly matched at the start of the second round. It's on YOU to change that.

Any questions? Oh yeah, feel free to sign up now, because sign-ups are officially OPEN!!
