The Best Trolls Come in Threes (Troll Contest)
Contest Timeline
- Start Date: September 03, 2026
- Submission Deadline: December 02, 2026
Prizes
3rd Prize (1st) is $33 dollars. If I, B0X_Gaming, reach enough gift subs during the contest, I'll add an additional 3 to the end of the winnings. (Example: $333) The same goes for additional gift subs for $3333 and beyond. If I can get it setup with enough time, I'll also open the option for a prize pool.
Rules & Guidelines
The rules are a bit more involved than I can fit here, so I've put them in a Google Doc.
Judging System
Each level will be rated by a judge with between 1 and 3 points.
B0X will rate each level with either a 3, 6 or a 9.
Levels will be rated on their:
- Ease of Understanding
- Overall Flow
- Laugh Factor (How funny was it?)
Viewers will also have a chance to weigh in on each level they see played. They will be rated on the following:
- How funny was it to wach someone play the level?
- Did you ever feel bored while watching?
- Given the contest is about "Threes," how well do you feel the level stuck with the bit?
- A general feedback section for the maker. I wanted to add this because the viewers deserve a say in what could be funny in a level.
Judges are encouraged to give feedback on the level as they progress through a level.
