Battle for a lot of toilet paper [hs forum object camp] - official topic

this competition is started by me [@braynee202] and all the currencies, rewards, and prizes are handled by me, not hopscotch. you can find other similar self-started events in #competitions-and-events, or even start one yourself. because this is started by me, hopscotch and the forum leaders are not involved or responsible in any of the transactions here.

disclaimer: this is not an object show. episodes are not available in the traditional manner to view like a comic or an animation. this is an object camp, which is a public competition version of an object show. for a more precise definition, go to an hsosc topic i think for more. signups are also open over there!!

heyo, everyone!! welcome to battle for a lot of toilet paper, the best competition among anthropomorphized objects ever, where the winner will get US$200 vigintillion and 3 rolls of toilet paper! truly the most fitting motivation to dedicate yourself to winning these contests [oh yeah, and the money]. but in order to acquire this fabulous prize, you must work to prove yourself worthy! only objects are allowed to compete, and they’ll make their best first impression with the judge [me], and their performance in every contest will be scored on a scale from zero to twenty. the worst competitors will be put up for elimination, and that’s where everyone else comes in! using a vote to save [vts] system, you can cast a vote after every contest to save your favorite competitor among the losing group. whoever gets the fewest will leave the show. if that weren’t enough, you can also cast a hinderance vote after every elimination, punishing the unpopular! [or don’t. all the same to me.] each one of these votes subtracts from survivors’s overall scores! how much so? you’ll have to wait and see. that said, it wouldn’t be fair to put all the power into the hands of the voters, so the top contestants will be rewarded with tokens, mysterious objects that can incur a variety of different effects on the game! what can they do? how many types are there? only one way to find out! prizes are available for humans as well: seeds, spamlikes, recognition, and markers! this monumental game will begin on 2023-03-14T16:00:00Z, so don’t miss it! signups are open until 2023-03-12T19:00:00Z, so go sign up now!

okay, contestants, time to begin the games! who will win?

…wait, who’s even competing? time to find out! using any means, art, coding, or something else, give your character the debut they deserve! have them introduce themself! by the forum guidelines, all art has to go over to the dht, but beyond that, you can code your character, post hs art pad links [to the dht], or anything that shows your character’s style! characters and/or introductions will be judged on a scale from zero to twenty. [please submit an object show character!]

now, it wouldn’t be that fun to save the excitement regarding tokens for the next contest, and, honestly, i don’t feel like waiting. so everyone will get two free tokens to start with! more on that later. in the meantime, everyone else, it’s time to cast your first hindrance vote!! since the contestants’s names are not yet known, the poll will be based on their forum usernames! each vote lowers the contestant’s final score, but by how much? who knows! anyone can vote! and don’t worry, it’s anonymous!

cast your hindrance vote!

now for those tokens! anytime during this contest when tokens are received, the type is randomized! so, here are the tokens you guys have been randomized to get:

@/Bobinny: you get an immunity token and a double token!!
@/Cutelittlepuppydog: you get a friendship token and a swap token!!
@/MarkerGames: you get a recycle token and a round token!!
@/Mouldycheese8: you get an appeal token and a revival token!!
@/rAyyy: you get an offset token and an equality token!!

post on this topic to use a token, and tag me.

what they do:

[NEW] appeal token: use it during the submission period to get 3 points added to your score!
[NEW] double token: if you use it during the submission period, you can submit two entries to the contest, and only the one that gets judged higher counts.
[NEW] equality token: if you use it during the voting period, half of everyone’s votes are taken, and then randomly distributed among everyone!
[NEW] friendship token: during the submission period, tell me someone you want to use your token on! you will sacrifice 1 point on your final score to add 1 point to theirs! great for starting alliances.
[NEW] immunity token: use it during the submission period to have guaranteed immunity! if i can tell you’re taking advantage of it, and intentionally submitting garbage, i’ll negate its effect, so don’t be too careless with it!
[NEW] offset token: use it during the voting period to have guaranteed immunity! all votes for you will be equally distributed among everyone else.
[NEW] recycle token: if you have another token, use this token on it to switch it to any other kind! can be used at any time, unless this is your only token.
[NEW] revival token: use it during the voting period to bring back an eliminated contestant! also great for starting alliances.
[NEW] round token: use during the submission period to round your final score to the nearest five. use carefully!
[NEW] swap token: use during the submission period to swap your final score with a contestant of your choosing!
ten tokens still have never been seen before!

okay, enough waiting. time for the contest! the contest is to have your character introduce themself! tell us a few things about themself! debut your character however you see fit! post all art to the dht, and link all code here! hs art pads work too! however you see fit, submit your entry to the first contest by 2023-03-18T22:45:00Z!

Sorry about that, it was a setting we’ve changed temporarily. Yep it’s fine to tag. I’ve removed the #signups-open tag now.

@Cutelittlepuppydog you never submitted – this isn’t like twow [a picture is worth 1,000 words, even in cary’s words], so i’ll still accept your entry late as long as it’s not too late. i’d honestly feel really bad eliminating anyone for not submitting, so i doubt i’ll do it, but just a friendly reminder!

everyone else - your entries are all in, and i’m procrastinating judging them! feel free to use a token beforehand, as most of them work now! [@/rAyyy, unfortunately, both of your tokens apply to the voting period, so you can’t use them yet. mouldy’s revival token can’t be used yet either, as no one is eliminated yet. all others can be used now!]

hindrance votes are also in!

everyone else
