This is a secret, please leave now... New Cabin Contest



About
About= Welcome one and all to the New Cabin Contest, a contest that will help us pick five new gods and/or goddesses to give cabins to at Camp Half-Blood. As there are hundreds of Greek gods, it isn't realistic to add endlessly, as so many scopes and powers overlap. Not to mention a handful really can't have cabins for various reasons. So with that in mind, we are going to let you guys compete to see which five gods or goddesses get to have a cabin. The rules however will be strict, and it will not be easy. The Admin team also reserves the right to call no-winner, in the event that the entries don't really meet the requirements.

'''The criteria and rules may seem harsh, but adding a new cabin is not something we do lightly, and therefore must be taken very seriously and must have a good amount of effort put into this. As I said above and stress again, the Admin Team reserves the right to DQ everyone, if no entries are reasonable.''' Rules= Voting= For this voting will be a two-step process. Prizes= Along with the winners getting to have their cabin made, these prizes will also be given out to each of the five winners.
 * You must be at least a level 5, or becoming a level 5 prior to the last day of the August.
 * Only one entry per user.
 * Entries must be in the day prior to the last day of the month (so if there's 31 days, the 30th, if there's 30 days, the 29th, etc.).
 * It cannot be someone who can't actively have kids. So gods/goddesses like Atlas, Kronos, Oceanus, Ouranos, Gaea, Leto etc. Basically anyone that is faded, dead, cut into a million pieces, in tartarus, exiled for going against the gods, etc.
 * If there are minor overlaps of gods/goddesses who already have cabins, that may be overlooked, but any major overlaps will cause it to be DQ'd. For instance, we have more than enough water/ocean gods, love gods, and fear/terror type gods.
 * Their scope should be something that gives room for good powers. For example, if it was a goddess of childbirth, and nothing else. Let's face it, you might be able to scrape up a few power ideas from that, but it won't be many and it'll probably end up a very un-popular cabin. We don't need un-popular cabins that are almost always empty.
 * It can only be one god/goddess not a group.
 * It must be a Greek god/goddess. If you aren't sure, Theoi is the best source for all things Greek
 * 1) The first round will be between admins and bcrats only (any who have not entered the contest that is). We will sort through and decide if any (or maybe all) should be dq'd.
 * 2) If any remain after the first round, because this effects the entire wiki, we will put the remaining entries up for a wiki wide vote. The vote will remain open for 2 to 5 days (depending on how fast everyone votes). Only level 5's and up will be permitted to vote. Now in general, the 4 cabins that get the most votes will win, however until the 25th there's no way to know how many may DQ prior to phase 2 of voting. If 4 or less cabins make it to Phase 2, whatever there are will automatically win and the contest is over. If more than 4 cabins make it to phase 2 of voting, the top 4 that get the most votes will win. Every user who is a level 5 or up, will be allowed to vote twice, but both votes can't be for the same cabin.
 * 1) Their character will count as a minor character
 * 2) They will have a whole month as head counsellor where no one else can challenge

Entries
Contests are now being handled a bit differently. Instead of having one big long page of everyone's histories, you'll enter your character name below and create a new page. The list will automatically be created as pages are made. Make sure to add your user name on the page somewhere, you may even use your own special user category that's used on your character pages to make sure we know who's claim is whose (or put your name in the title, like "Zeus' Cabin - Brocky's Entry"). Each month the category must be changed in order for the list to function properly without listing old contest entries, it needs to be changed below, as well as Here.
