This summer, we're wanting to give everyone in URPG the chance to mingle and get more acquainted with our host community. With that in mind, we're incentivizing activity in PXFire for URPG members!
How it Works:
- Completing the objectives earns you URPG cash, which you can claim to your stats, or choose to spend on rewards!
- Keep a log of the objectives you complete throughout the event, and the cash you've earned during the event, in your own post in this thread.
- Only the cash earned from completing the objectives in this event can be used in the rewards shop below. Cash already in your URPG stats cannot be used to purchase from this shop!
- Once you've claimed cash from the event to your stats, it can no longer be used to purchase rewards from this event shop.
- Only one Pokemon may be claimed from this event.
Ways to Earn:
There are several ways to earn cash through this event, and there's something for everybody!
Team Rewards:
- $2,500 - Join or create a team. This reward can only be claimed at the end of the event, and only if you've participated in at least three events for your team!
- +$1,500 - Get an additional $1,500 if you joined a team with two or less URPG members at the time of your joining, or if you created a team yourself!
- $500 ($1,500 max) - Create and post a button or signature banner for your team to use! Other creative contributions or team art also count!
- $250 ($250 max) - Rep your team in your PXR forum signature or avatar!
Judging:
- $1,500 - Become a judge for an event. Have some free time and a little expertise? After you've read the rules, you can apply to be a judge for an event here! Your application must be accepted to receive these points.
- $3,000 - Judge a round of an event on time. Key word is on time! This reward is for every round judged on time.
Event Participation:
- $250 ($2250 max) - Participate in a unique type of event. For each different type of event you participate in, you get a one-time reward of $250. There are nine events total, and this can only be earned once per event.
- $500 - Create a character for the RP. The character must be accepted to count.
$250 - Make a post in the RP. This reward is for each post. However, to count for points, there must have been at least 2 posts from different people since your last post, or 48 days must have passed if only one person has posted.
$250 - Make an entry for Humor or Caption Contest.
$1,000 - Make an entry for Creative Writing, Drawn Art, Graphic Art, Pixel Art, or Comics.
$250 ($750 max per week) - Complete a battle for the Showdown event.
Event Rewards:
- $1,000 / $750 / $500 - Place 1st/2nd/3rd in a round of an event. Default wins do not count, and there must be at least three or more participants in that round of the event for a placement to count.
- $5,000 + $1,000 per 50 points earned - Finish PXFire on a winning team. Must have competed in at least 3 events to qualify for the point reward.
Activity Bonuses:
- $750 / $1,000 - Scaling event participation rewards! Each week you consecutively participate in the same event, you'll earn an additional $750 / $1,000 on top of the normal participation reward! For example, if I participate in Creative Writing for three consecutive weeks, I earn $1,000 the first week, $1,750 ($1,000 + $750) the second, and $2,000 ($1,000 + $1,000) the third week. Missing a week resets this counter.
Ways to Spend:
To spend in the shop, you must keep a log with the cash you've earned. An example log can be found below! Post here to complete a purchase. Only URPG staff and approvers can approve these purchases. Approvers must double-check the user's log and the links in it to be sure that they have fulfilled all of the listed objectives. If you have any questions on if something counts for an objective, please ask me, K'sariya, or another staff member! Only the cash earned from completing the objectives in this event can be used in the rewards shop below. Cash already in your URPG stats cannot be used to purchase from this shop!
