About Photoshop KungPhoolery

The Rules:


PRACTICE THREADS
Practice threads are open to all and no voting is required. Comment and encouragement is welcome. Post a source and let your fellow group members go crazy.

BATTLES
Matches last 3 rounds
Non-participants judge the match after gameplay ends
Any software or process is allowed
Save jpegs at a decent quality as they will be opened and saved several times during gameplay

You begin your challenge by selecting your opponent and creating a new topic naming the two competitors. PlayerX vs. PlayerY

Once a challenge has been initiated, player one will present an original photo to player two by posting a medium size version in the thread with the comment "Begin". Player two then tweaks the photo and posts it back to the thread with the comment "Round 1". Player one then tweaks that photo and also posts it back to the thread with the comment "Round 1", thus completing the first round. The tweaked photo then goes back to player two for Round 2 and is labeled accordingly. The match ends after the third round is complete.

All photos posted in the topic should be limited to medium size for consistency of comparison while scrolling. If you want to see a larger version you can click the image to go to the players stream.

Comments are allowed (and encouraged) during gameplay as long as they don't influence the progression of the challenge.

Voting only takes place after the 3rd and final round has been completed by both opponents. A comment stating that Voting is Now Open will be posted by the challenger after their last submission.

Voting does not take place on the person's actual photostream. Non-participants vote at the bottom of the challenge thread.

Voters should nominate a winner for each round and then the overall winner, e.g.

Round 1: Player A
Round 2: Player B
Round 3: Player A
Winner: Player A

Commentary on your vote (the reason why you chose this particular image) is welcome but not compulsory - it is good feedback for the contestants.

The player receiving the most votes is declared the winner, and the photo from the round with the most votes goes in the pool. In the event the winner receives an equal number of votes on photos from different rounds, each of those photos are added to the pool.

The winner will tag their photo "Photoshop KungPhoolery Champion" and add their winning photo to the group pool and a link in their photo's caption back to their battle thread.

LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

Like what you see here but a bit too tame? You like to play rough, can stomach guts, gore, foul language & adult content you say? Apply here: Photoshop Kungfu for an invite to the REAL Photoshop Kungfu. It's down, dirty & more fun than you'll find anywhere else on Flickr. Be forewarned, the rules at the REAL PSK: You MUST participate in some way - Fight, Vote, Heckle or Discuss - or be cut from the group without warning.
