The Summer Tour de Vizzed is here!

You can find last season's results here:

Here's some brief TdV info:

Each day there will be 4 Jerseys you can compete for:
Yellow Jersey: Most words in a day
Blue Jersey: Most posts in a day
Red Jersey: Most CP in a day
Green Jersey: Most CP actions in a day

If you get 1st place in a Jersey for a day, you get to "wear" that Jersey the following day. To "wear" it means that the background of your username will have a unique background graphic. Only the top 5 places of each Jersey gets points, 1st gets 5 and 5th gets 1. Whoever has the most points for any Jersey at the end of the competition gets to wear that Jersey for the entire next month. If you have more than 1 jersey, your jersey receives stripes for each jersey color you own.

Along with the Jerseys are Banners that change your username color. They basically represent who has the most points total:
Rainbow Banner: Whoever has the most points so far in the competition
White Banner: New member who has the most points so far in the competition (anyone who has signed up in the past 3 months)
Gray Banner: Veteran member who has the most points so far in the competition (anyone who signed up more than 7 years ago)

Tour de Vizzed Rules:

You'll be DQ'd if:
-More than 25% of your daily posts are made in one of the following forums: Crazy House, Vizzed Market, Polls and Questions, Video Game Craziness, Newbie Forum (unless posts are made in your own thread then it's 50%)
-You copy content from other websites or other posts
-You use the "tabbing" technique to make a bunch of posts in a short amount of time
-You're caught cheating or unfairly earning Contribution Points
-You're found to be reviewing games that you have not finished
-You post twice in a row on a thread
-Your posts are found to be below site standard to unfairly gain points or are completely off topic
-More than 25% of your daily posts are made in the same thread (your own thread and staff threads are an exception)
-If 50% or more of your daily words are posted in the final hour of the day
-Staff members are not allowed to feature their own reviews during the Tour de Vizzed

Reminder: Be sure to PM the RGR Staff if you want a game page added to the site that the site currently doesn't have.

Additionally:
If you get DQ'd just once from a Jersey, you can no longer get points for that Jersey for the rest of the month. We will be very strict from now on with the Tour de Vizzed. Only CP actions which you earned CP off of count toward the Green Jersey.

If you get DQ'd from too many Jerseys in too many TdV competitions, you'll be DQ'd from the TdV forever. Also, if you get DQ'd from a single Jersey in too many competitions, you'll be DQ'd from that specific Jersey forever.

Also, if 50% or more of your daily words are posted in the final hour of the day, you'll be DQ'd from the Yellow Jersey. Too many users have waited until the end of the day to submit a bunch of reviews to the site and that's unfair to users competing

Additional Tour de Vizzed Info:

Some CP actions only count as 1 per day. In other words, any action in the below list can only increase your Green Jersey points by 1:
Forum Navigation, Review Rated, User Referral Posted, Video Rated, Post Spell Checked, Visiting Vizzed, Screenshot Rated, Post, Game Commenting, Thread, Thread Reply, Chat Room Minute, Staff Forum Post, Staff Forum Thread and Screenshot Details Added.

These CP actions do not count toward the Green Jersey: Game Content.

Also the following types of threads have been restricted 1 post per day.
This Thread, ABC, Elimination, and Hangman style threads. Currently ask me anythings not restricted unless abused.

Each day there will be a specific CP action which will be worth doubled the points which benefits the Red Jersey competition. Below is a list of which actions are worth doubled on which days this month:
1. None
2. Video Submission
3. Screenshot Submission
4. None

Jerseys and Banners Affect the Vizzed GO Cards
Competitors of the TdV competition can be caught with their card styles and those cards will eventually have special purposes. More information can be found here:

Let the games begin!

Well I've been spending the last several days in the last year or so getting ready for posting Walkthroughs and reviews, where things will go this year, who knows but something isn't working in the Game music pages

Not planning to compete this time around, but we'll see. Might have to step in to show these TdV "planners" that true champions wing it.

tgags123 :

Planners always fall short. Where’s the fun? The spontaneous surges of posting? How can one new user be able to win when he threatens first place and first place just goes into their folder of planned reviews from their cabinet and post it to keep their lead? Did I mention that it’s lemon scented? One lives long enough to become a villain… this is why I’m sitting back and enjoy this chaos as I go grab some popcorn to munch because I’m tired of my name being mentioned on competing. I won, with just a iphone, while working. I’m a GOAT.

Anyways good luck everyone, they need it. Have a healthy and fair tour de vizzed.

Petition to change the jerseys into shirts, with the episode of extreme heat we're experiencing it's a much needed change.

Jokes aside, I could probably get one or two shirts jerseys because I've been working on a twin project. If life treats me gently I could have enough time to go easy and not being pushed into the last days, but I'm not placing a bet on anything. I do expect to catch fire between the 7 and the 25th... And in this site too xD

Good luck to whoever participates, be it for a single day or for the whole month. Enjoy the healthy competition and let's have a memorable summertime in the Land of V.

Will classgame finally do the impossible and win tdv? Only time will tell on that I don't believe I have nearly the time to win a tdv at this point but you know what it's late into the day and competing still looks doable so I'll throw my hat in the ring and see if I can walk away with a rainbow banner for a bit this month.

Good luck everyone!

It's finally here!! I've been excited to see how this goes, good luck to everyone competing this TDV.

I'm not sure weather or not I'll be competing, it depends on how competitive it is this TDV.
