GENERAL INFORMATION
Welcome to the Signature of the Week with your host, Unlimited.
Your judge is only Unlimited this time who will give quality checks
to each of your entries to ensure quality wins when you publicly vote.
In addition, your judge may allow a 2nd place winner
to have an opportunity to stand in the SOTM competition.
SOTM is where the top winners of a particular month compete
in a similar style for Signature of the Month.
1st Place in SOTW earns you 14 rep and exclusive entry to SOTM.
2nd Place in SOTW earns you 7 rep.
The winner of SOTW has the next theme of choice.
But do note Freestyle is banned
for the simple reason that it lacks creativity.
ANONYMITY RULE
SOTW will take entries completely anonymously!
In this act to totally remove favoritism, all entries will be anonymously
and privately submited via PM to Unlimited.
You may not submit an entry in this thread.
Voting will continue with each entry marked with a number.
Once voting is complete, the next SOTW will begin
and all of the previous entries will finally be credited.
Let's say no to favoritism and enjoy our first anonymous SOTW.
When you send a PM to Unlimited,
make sure to state your Theme of Choice in case you win.
You may freely update your signature by sending a new PM.
You must also note NOT to use your name in any way
to let users associate you with your anonymous entry.
Finally, fair competition!
AUTO-HOST RULE
If some unforeseen issues arise,
the SOTW from now on will go precisely to schedule
without burdening duty to one person.
SOTW will now feature the 'Auto-Host'
where a user automatically fires up a thread immediately
to our organized schedule of Mon-Fri entering and Sat-Sun voting.
by being notified of all prerequisite information
including the theme of choice, entries, and special rules.
from the main host or a judge.
Certain allowed people may also opt to host.
Never again will a week be over seven days.
STRICT REQUIREMENTS
◘ All rules to be abided by including default dimensions
unless special dimensions are provided with the theme.
◘ MUST have a Theme of Choice given with a PM. Not just an entry.
◘ NO reference to your identity whatsoever due to our anonymity rule.

◘ Look up in Google "grunge effects"
◘ Use darker, thicker colors. Think evil.
◘ Think dirty. Use smear effects.

DISCUSSION RULES:
