So what exactly is going to be happening?

Well, simply put, this is a 5-round contest! The structure of the rounds is as follows:

Round 1: There'll be 23 contestants. Everyone will be given the same prompt. After the round is over, 2 people will be eliminated.

Round 2: There'll be 21 contestants. Everyone has to choose different prompts by picking a number, and top 3 winners from last round will get the advantage of knowledge - the top place will know 3 prompts, second place will know 2, and third place will know 1. You can choose to take these or discard them, and choose something else from the 21 prompts on offer. 4 people will be eliminated this round.

Round 3: There'll be 17 contestants. Everyone will be given the same prompt. After the round is over, 6 people will be eliminated.

Round 4: There'll be 11 contestants. Everyone has to choose different prompts by picking a number, and top 3 winners from last round will get the advantage of knowledge - the top place will know 3 prompts, second place will know 2, and third place will know 1. You can choose to take these or discard them, and choose something else from the 17 prompts on offer. 8 people will be eliminated this round.

Round 5: The remaining 3 contestants will be given the same prompt, and each has to make a duology.

If you want a simplified version, it's an ABABA structure, where A is 'everyone gets the same prompt' and B is where winners of the A rounds get an advantage. Feel free to ask any questions you've got!

If this sounds like it's for you, that's awesome! We'd love for you to sign up. Between now and the 30th of March at 12:00pm GMT, you can join by messaging corvums, since we'll be holding blind auditions. Your message should contain your preferred name, your timezone, two areas you'd like to work on, three strengths of yours in designing, and a graphic you've made in 2019 without watermarks or your name/username anywhere on the cover (author names are fine, as long as it's not clear who made it). It'd be preferred if you haven't posted this anywhere, but if you don't have any of those handy, you can include a graphic you've posted.

Good luck, everyone! May the parrots be ever in your favour.
