This competition is based on the Video Game Characters feature. Whoever assigns the most characters to the most screenshots wins.

We did this same competition last summer as you can see here. We've done this for the past few summers now.

Examples of how this works
You get a point for each unique character / game combination. I'll use Super Mario World and Mario in my examples:
-If you assign Mario to 3 screenshots for Super Mario World, you get 1 point.
-If you assign Mario to 3 screenshots for 3 different games, you get 3 points.

You can also earn multiple points off of the same screenshot if it contains more than 1 character; example:
-If you assign Yoshi and Mario to the same screenshot for Super Mario World, you get 2 points.

You can assign characters to screenshots of games that other users have already done but not of the same characters. Example:
-Another user assigns Mario to a screenshot for Super Mario World, they get 1 point
-You assign Mario to a screenshot for Super Mario World, you do not get a point
-You assign Yoshi to a screenshot for Super Mario World, you get 1 point


Current Rank:
https://www.vizzed.com/videogames/character-userassignment.php

Go to that page at any time to see how you rank among everyone else in this competition. That page will also show a total which will help determine what the payout is.


Prizes:
The prize amount will be based on how many characters get assigned to how many screenshots among all users. At any time, you can find out that number in the above 'Current Rank' url.

5,000+

Raffle Tickets let you redeem steam games of $10 value and they are stackable.


Trophy Award:
This is a newly added feature. The user who wins this competition will get a special trophy item added to their Vizzed Market inventory. Users will be able to display all the trophies they've earned on their profiles (when I'm done remaking them).


Rules:
-Taking screenshots of characters for a game that someone else has already taken screenshots of for that same game will not count if the screenshots are too similar, if someone takes a screenshot similar to a screenshot already submitted to this competition, it will be down rated
-You must average less than 32 characters per a game (so if you do a game with a ton of characters, you'll have to make up for it by doing a bunch of games that don't have a ton of characters to balance out the average)
-Only screenshots taken after 6/1/2016 count
-Screenshots must be given a description and assigned to a category to count
-Hacked and homebrew games do not count
-If more than 75% of your tagged characters are in games where others have tagged the same characters, than you are not eligible for the cash prizes
-A 'Character' will be anyone in the game that has a name and isn't user generated and isn't randomly generated
-Only screenshots which have a rating of 3 or higher count
-Clones do not count (this only applies to MAME games)
-You MUST use the Vizzed RGR Plugin to take the screenshots for games that exist in the RGR
-If you upload screenshots to the Video Game Room, they must be great quality and must also be taken by you, otherwise they will not count


Tips:
-Try to focus on games that no one else has done
-When you work on a game, try to add every character for that game
-If you find characters that are missing, be sure to let the staff know asap so that we can get them added right away and than you can add those characters to your games
-Don't be overwhelmed if a lot of users have a lot of points, it's very easy and quick to earn a lot of points
-This competition not only encourages tagging characters in your screenshots, it also encourages taking more screenshots so be sure to take as many as you can
-Make sure to take and use meaningful screenshots if you want to avoid having your screenshots down rated
-Here's a list of games which shows how many characters have been submitted to each game so that you know which games to focus on:

Oh hey, I remember doing this competition! It can take up a lot of your time if you're not careful, so to anyone who wants to enter, good luck. I might not be very competitive this time around, but I'll try.

Also, a question I've been wondering about ever since I started adding characters: When you're adding a named enemy as a character (an example would be a Goomba), do you just leave the gender box empty? How little info can I put in? Some characters I'm adding are just a name and graphic, no real "story" to them.

Congo! : Only add the info that you're for sure of. So for a Goomba, leave it genderless, especially since it represents many characters that could be of either gender and not necessarily a specific Goomba. Same rules would apply to Pokemon.

I've tried to add data about one of the games I got, but first, some of the names are a bit odd (I mean, some of them start with with just the N initial, others start with the full first name, and yet others have either Dr or Doctor in front) and... Well, some of the characters aren't on the list, and when I tried to add them, I got an error message.

I do already have the screenshots ready, though - I just need the characters added.

Davideo7 : I was wondering if it would be easy for you to make it possible to upload external screenshots for RGR games like we can in the VGR. I can't physically complete the Pokedex in Firered, Ruby, Sapphire, or Emerald, although I saw Congo do it with LeafGreen 3 years ago.

Congo! : I was wondering if you could remember how you got the complete Pokedex in LeafGreen? I doubt you would want to tell me if you remembered though, because if you're competing, then you'd want to do that for yourself and take 1st, but idk.

Working through some of the PSX games - especially those with no screenshots, like the demo disks - and adding the screencaps of them with characters if there are any.

So I guess this is over? I got a mysterious private message from the user "Vizzed". It's a message with the subject "(Message not found)", and I can't click on it. Also, my Viz count jumped up. I guess that was the prize?
