I'm going to enter. Is there a specified deadline for submission?
may 17th. My bad.
Sounds fun indeed..
When submitting for a category, do we only go with one, or can we nominate an Arc for several? I'd like to submit for Best Custom Group, Most Outrageous and Most Creative.

4) Additionally, no edits and updating of arcs is allowed during the judging period. If edits / updates are completed on your arc during the judging period your arc will be automatically disqualified.

What if there's a change to the way that the Architect works that invalidates an arc?
I had my arc invalidated with the latest patch because one of my enemy descriptions was too long. And it wasn't a custom enemy, or something I wrote, or anything anyone's likely to read (I'd never read it before today, and I added him to the arc during i14 betat!); just a regular 5th Column guy using the default description.

If this is the case once the arc has bee entered and judging has began. We will allow you up to 24 hours after a patch to fix the problems that occur from a patch. But this ONLY applies when a patch has been posted!

You can select which categories you would like your arc to be considered for.
So if you think its got a good storyline but also a great cast, then you would list those 2 categories you would like it to be considered for.

Oh come now. You don't have to run them all at once. Besides, most of the high end blueside content consists of arcs this length. The only difference is that those arcs are monotonous as all getout. My arc is awesome.

SOrry Squid. But due to the fact that MA limits their arcs in the MA to 5. I need to limit any story arc to 5. Partially due tot he fact that there will be so many that the judges have to run. Asking them to run one persons that only has 2 missions as opposed to one that has 15-20 missions is really a very tall task to request of them.
If there is a way to condense it into 5 then please by all means feel free to enter it. But I must say no to a multiple part arc.

Thanks. I think when I submitted the arc to you I suggested one category for evaluation but asked for two others as well.
How is the turnout so far? Lots of submissions, or do you need more?

I entered. Didn't really want to put any effort into figuring out which category I should put my entry in so I entered all the categories.

Now that Issue 14 is live and the Mission Architect is fully functional, PERC is calling out all Champions to submit their story arcs into the first ever Mission Architect Awards in a quest to find some of the most exceptional titles!
Details:
PERC Reps will be hosting an MA Arc Competition the whole month of May in hopes of finding some of the most unique, creative, and detailed story arcs stored within the Champion AE!
Players have the opportunity to enter their story arcs into the contest in five specific categories:
1. Best Story Line
2. Best Custom Cast
3. Most Challenging
4. Most Outrageous
5. Most Creative
The submission period to enter your story arc is from Monday, May 4th to Sunday, May 17th @ 11:00pm EST.
Once the submission period has closed a panel of PERC Representatives will be judging the story arc's. The judging period will take place from Monday, May 19th to Sunday, May 31st.
The Award Ceremony and announcement of winning arcs will be announced on June 6, 2009 at 8:00 pm EST in the Galaxy City AE Building.
Prizes:
Top winner in each category will be awarded, 15 Million Influence.
Rules:
1) One story arc / entry is allowed per Global.
2) The Arc Id # that you submit will be the one that is judged. Please do not enter the competition and submit your arc id # until your arc is complete and ready to be judged.
3) During the judging period it is requested that you do not unpublish and consequently re-publish your arc. This creates a new arc id # and will make your arc ineligible for judging.
4) Additionally, no edits and updating of arcs is allowed during the judging period. If edits / updates are completed on your arc during the judging period your arc will be automatically disqualified.
5) No farms allowed.
6) Only individually created story arcs are eligible for judging / submission. Any arcs containing material that may contain content that was created by other players will be disqualified.
