Explanation
The Editing Battle is a competition in the amino that focuses on gathering editors together to compete by editing. You can get to show-off your edits and push your boundaries by trying out new styles. This is open to all editors even if you are not part of the guild chat room or the team. This is a fun-filled event that we encourage all editors to in. We usually try to host this event in a time when people are more free, which around winter break, is the perfect time!
In this battle, editors willing to participate will be split into teams. There will be no maximum number of , as long as all teams have the same amount of numbers.
Every participant will be randomly added to a team and it’s chatroom, selected by the Editor’s Guild Leaders. You will work with this team for 3 weeks competing with other teams. You have 4 days, after the first challenge has been posted, to pick a leader within your team as well as pick a name for your team. The leaders will be in charge of activity as well as posting the blog with the edits included.
Each week, the leaders will announce an editing prompt for all teams to participate in, on this blog: TBA
There will be 3 stages. In each stage there will be 1 major activity that the team must do. This activity could vary from making posters, themes, or team-build an edit. For each activity there will be specific requirements that every editor must follow. These requirements will vary from (but are not limited to) the colours needed, characters that must be used, techniques and more, as well as a couple of tweaks.
For the first 2 stages, every editor on the team must create an edit. Someone in the team must volunteer to post the blog after collecting everyone’s edits. The blog will be linked to the voting pool at the end of the battle.
The last stage requires team building participation. We encourage you to get to know each other in order to prepare for the third stage. That way it is not as awkward when you start asg jobs to each other.
All voting will be community based, meaning that GIA will choose which edits they like best by voting in a poll. If there is a tie, the leaders will cast their own votes. Votings will begin once all 3 stages are over.

Prizes
The only way to really win and obtain the AC prices is when a team scores the majority of the votes.
For example, Team 2 got the most votes in the first and second stages. That would mean they got the majority of wins from all 3 stages, declaring them the winner of the Editing Battle.
If there are no majority winners, like Team 1 wins the first stage, Team 2 wins the second stage or Team 3 wins the third stage, the leaders will cast their own votes in an anonymous manner.
The winning team will split 5K AC plus receive a title that relates to their team name. The top 2 and 3 teams will receive a title that also relates to their team name and some ac as well.
All donations given to this blog will go straight to the winners!

This is a team activity, where communication is a big part of the battle, especially in the last stage. Please be active and do your edits accordingly.
✦ Although it is called a “battle” it does not mean that you can bad mouth others for their edits or team. Any foul-play, poor sportsmanship, bad mouthing is strictly prohibited. If a leader receives a report or finds out about this, you and everyone involved (aside from the victims) will be eliminated and will be blacklisted from ing future challenges/events/competitions etc.
✦ Do not plagiarize someone else’s work. If a leader receives a report about this, you will be disqualified and possibly blacklisted from future challenges/events/competitions etc.
✦ Do not use art of artist’s that does not allow reposts or usage of their art. Please respect the artist’s wishes and avoid using their artwork. Most of the time, you will know if they don’t allow usage or reposted in their bio. If we find out that your art cannot be used, it will be removed from the blog.
✦ Give credits to artists and resources used. Provide a proper link to the original art post that is not from a render website. If you want to find out more about crediting, please have a read at the Crediting PSA. If there are no proper credits linked in your team blog will be removed.
