What is this?
By now, you either know or can find out on your own. This is far from the first time this contest has taken place here. As usual, there will be 64 total spots, 5 of which have already been filled, and 5 more which are tentatively reserved and may be filled at my discretion. With the exception of the 4 seeded entries, the initial bracket will be randomized. Voting for each battle will once again be active for a 24-hour period.
When/How do I submit my entry?
PM me the link(s). You are in charge of your own web hosting, and there are plenty of free services out there that this really shouldn't be a problem. Either use something reliable or a couple of things that aren't (one set of mirrored links is usually enough, unless you're extremely paranoid or just plain awful at internetting). Just know that once the battle goes up, if your link doesn't work, ha ha.
Since I moved to the west coast last August, in addition to the date of open registration, all due dates for entries will now be at 11:59:59 p.m. in Pacific Time. Please try to remember that all entries are due before the day the battle is set to take place, not by the end of.
What if I don't submit anything?
By signing up for this competition, you are acknowledging that if you fail to submit an entry on time or do submit an entry that is the equivalent of "whatever, I'm out" or "whoops, I forgot," bad things will happen to you. No-shows from last year are barred from participating this year. 2008 no-shows, should they wish to enter, are eligible once more.
Are there prizes?
It depends on what you consider valuable.
Does ASimPerson have an archive of past contests?
What an oddly specific question. But yes, he does. However, it only dates back to 2007, so it's missing all the classic, original contests.
Can I see it?
No.
Please?

Remember that the break time between rounds will shrink as the competition wears on. The better your entries are, the more likely you're about to enter a world of pain. Best of luck.

I'll do my best, but it won't be memorable
Luckily most of my entry is not-drawing
she is no rookie
@Bryceforvice on Twitter Facebook
Yeah, I thought that was odd. There's even a duplicate entry now in my overall thing. Whoops.
Edit: fixed
I think I am trying to tell myself to read the forums more
@Bryceforvice on Twitter Facebook
i was like
'im still on the waitlist right'
'what? no, you're in the battle. youre against berk now"
'what'
'yeah you didn't know?'
he's very good at keeping a straight face
You're a rad dude sim.
I have statistics about me, like a baseball card.
Or a pokemon.
I didn't get the Lincoln joke at all last year.
What spring does with the cherry trees.
Least I can do to try to give back a little bit, as I always say.
Oh its on now mull-man
That's cause it was one of those "so bad you think it has to have a deeper meaning things" when really it was just a terrible joke.
@Bryceforvice on Twitter Facebook
Now I'm panicking. What do you know?
your loss, guys!
You poor bastard.
can I overcome my own laziness long enough to make it a reality?
we'll see
edit: and you're even battling on the first day god damn
I am a lone man entering the realms of powers I cannot possibly comprehend
Such as animation and art and coherent literature
Ed I am expecting something funny from you.

i mean i've heard of (most of) you guys but i don't know anything about you so i'd be powerless
look I have no idea who you are so I have no idea how dumb you may or may not be okay
I had to guess
You are talented in something, right?
Or Fletcher.
What spring does with the cherry trees.
Fair enough.
he fucked me up last year, though, as well as making it to the final four
@Bryceforvice on Twitter Facebook
nope
i think a lot of the people i don't know post in the webcomics thread?
i dunno
I'm hoping it turns out to be something akin to the final race of Speed Racer.
That's when you just make something up
But if you don't know anything than that made-up something might be true...
