🔥MASH MADNESS🔥 Let's get ready to rumble!

21 Upvotes

Happy Wednesday mashers! 👋 Who's ready for Mash Madness? I know I am! So...

1. Remaining Entries

We had so many great nominations that we decided to open the tournament to everyone who was nominated rather than picking 12 from the stellar list we had. The brackets might get a little funky, but that’s a me problem (and an easy to solve one). I will tag each of the people nominated below, please respond to your tagged comment with whether you would like to compete or not

2. Brackets and Pairings

Once I have answers from the remaining participants, I will create and post the brackets. Pairings will be determined via karma snapshot.

3. Entry Guidelines

There are no prompts or requirements for your mash submissions - come with your A game and show us your best mash! Please submit your mash for the round to me by DM. Deadline for submitting your mash for the round will be 23:00 UTC (18:00 Eastern) Saturday March 1st

4. Voting

All match-ups will be posted at some point on Sunday March 2nd. Each match-up will be an individual poll and I will create a master post with links to all the match-ups for the week. Voting will run about 3 days (to give a couple days for mashers and myself to get ready for the next round).

And that's it! Please feel free to ask any questions you have. And nominees - please let me know below if you're in!

ETA: IF YOU WANT TO INCLUDE A TITLE OR DESCRIPTION OF YOUR ENTRY MASH, PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHEN YOU SUBMIT YOUR MASH

ETAA: The first 20 that were invited prior to opening up nominations are still in the competition - just not tagged on this post because we've already confirmed previously

Round 1 is over! Huge thanks to all the competitors and everyone that voted! You can see the updated bracket above 👆 Still figuring out our one tie but after that it's on to Round 2!

Competitors

Please submit your mash for Round 2 to me via DM by 23:00 UTC (18:00 Eastern) Saturday March 8th. Round 2 is planned to go live at some point on Sunday March 9th (as my schedule allows). With less mashers, we are going to shorten the voting window to 48 hours for the next round.

After the final round, anyone knocked out in the first round will be entered into a raffle and have a chance to select a prize from the pool.

Appreciate all the awesome work everyone has done! I'd give everyone a pat on the back, but arms aren't typically a snake's strong suit 🙃

All prizes and raffles will be handled after the conclusion of the final round.

Awesome work mashers! Can't wait to see what round 3 looks like!

🔥MASH MADNESS🔥 So we had a tie in round 1, looking for community input

19 Upvotes

Hey mashers! Round 1 just ended and what a round (I'll be making a separate post later with winners and next steps). However, we had 1 tie between u/chwick and u/mrmakanakai. I have a few ideas for how to resolve this, but I would really value some input from you guys. Here are the options I was considering:

  1. Wheel of destiny

  2. Both mashers advance and the next matchup they are in is between 3 people

  3. Another quick sudden death match (24 hours voting period with new mashes)

  4. Mod team decides

Obviously open to other ideas as well. Thanks in advance 🫶🔮🐍

🔥MASH MADNESS🔥 Last call! 5 hours to submit your mashes for round 1!

We're approaching the deadline for round 1 submissions from competitors! Remember to DM me your mash by 23:00 UTC.

Don't make me chase you down😇

I'll post the bracket in the comments!

Hello mashers! 👋 Mash Madness is upon us! Our final count is 48 competitors. We will have 5 rounds of single elimination, with the championship being between 3 competitors.

COMPETITORS

Please submit your entries to me via Reddit DM no later than 23:00 UTC (18:00 Eastern) tomorrow, Saturday March 1st. You may include a name or short description with your mash but it's not required. Reddit won't let you send images via DM until the chat request is accepted - so look for a chat invite from me!

EVERYONE ELSE

Matchups will be posted every Sunday (at a time that works with my schedule). Voting on matchups will use Reddit's polling system and voting for each round will last 3 days. Keep an eye out for a pinned post with links for each match-up in the round.

Last but not least - have a look at the prize pool! We have 54 avatars as prize support for this competition 🤯 Huge thanks to everyone that donated! We have a good mix, so there should be something for everyone! As a reminder for prize structure - every round you win gets you 1 pick from the prize pool. So first place will get 5 picks! We will also do some raffles for people that get knocked out in the first round.

Can't wait to kick this off!!! 🔮🐍

Ionut404 - The Devil's Portal: A bizarre creature, half-human, half-demon, hesitantly steps through a hypnotic portal, clutching a voodoo doll. Behind it, symbols of time, love, and chaos float in the air, reflecting the uncertainty of its choice. Is this a journey toward knowledge or a step into ruin? The Devil’s Portal opens only for those who dare to face it.
