Essence of theContest V1.0

A ‘Thank You’ to Maylordgiveusmercy and Swisspda for helping flesh out this Essence. Drinking this Essence that tastes of Glory, Champagne with a faint aftertaste of Salty Tears, allows you to freely create any kind of contest, challenge, tournament, race, game or similar things, creativity is key here as anything can work so long as it fits the theme and you think of it.

• Any contest you start can get any amount of participants from anywhere that you can think of.

• There are no Language barriers between Participants, Overseer and Non-Participants for the duration of the contest.

• All participants must be given full information in what kind of game they will participate including any rules before they can agree to participate, you may create contest’s with forced participation, however you must also participate in these forced contests and the rules must be fair.

• Regardless of any kind of contest, all the participants including the Overseer will be brought back to life and full health without any traumatization after competing with each other, unless it is part of a Bet.

• All participating people are put in contests with people that can operate on the same level as them, this may result in pools of contestants with each pool having a different difficulty grade.

• Any contest must be capable of being won by all participants that are in a pool participating in it.

• This may result in different difficulty grades for varying contestant pools, thus resulting in multiple winners if the difference in capabilities between contenders is too high.

• Any Bets made between participants will be enforced, Bets that a participant cannot uphold are not capable of being made, and both sides must agree that a Bet is fair out of their own free will before it can be enforced.

• Rewards are rewarded appropriately as to what a participant considers a reward on the scale, effort and difficulty of a contest, or can consist of a single wish that will be enforced into being enacted as long as it does not harm anyone or anything on its own.

• Rewards may apply on any scale. (Personal, Group, Planet-wide, Reality-wide etc).

• Non-participants that exist on the same planet as a contender, are from the same race or faction may choose to watch the contest, they may also offer additional rewards to a participant pool of their choice to encourage them, or place bets between themselves, however any additional reward or bet will only apply after the contest, unless it is included in the rules.

• Additional viewers for any contest can be selected or completely turned off per your will, by default this includes everyone in the same universe as a participant, these too may place Rewards or Bets if they so desire to.

• You may choose to participate in any contest of your creation if you want to.

• You may select or send a request for an impartial Overseer to preside over any contest that you start in order to guarantee its fairness and enforcement of the rules, if you're not participating yourself, you can fill in this role yourself if that is what you desire.

• An Overseer cannot be manipulated or controlled during a contest, any existing manipulations or controls will be removed without any consequences at the beginning of a contest.

• The Overseer will get a small reward that they will appreciate for their time overseeing the contest.

• In the event that an Overseer is not Impartial they will be removed from their position and a suitable replacement will be found.

• Furthermore, they will not gain their reward, and cannot be selected for the position again.

• If a Participant is caught in the act of cheating, it is considered an instant loss, and any addition or alteration of the punishment for cheating must be established and agreed on or written in the rules beforehand.
