Ellerby Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 [CENTER][img]http://img154.imageshack.us/img154/9580/logo1copyfi9.jpg[/img][/center] [FONT=Franklin Gothic Medium][SIZE=4][FONT=Franklin gothic medium]Welcome to OtakuBoards' very first [b]Anime[/b] Event![/FONT][/SIZE] You're probably wondering what kind of event this is. Is it a competition? Is it trivia? Is it a scavenger hunt? Is it a picture caption game? A screen shot guessing game? The Big OtakuBoards Anime Event (or... BOBAE) is big for a reason. BOBAE is all of said events and more! [SIZE=4][FONT=Franklin gothic medium]How does it work?[/FONT][/SIZE] Every week (or sometimes every other week) a new round will begin ([b]NO SIGN-UPS REQUIRED[/b]). Each round will be totally different from the next (all revolve around anime) and will be competition-oriented. In one round I may want you to guess the different Animes from the different screen shots but in another I may need you to run to your local book store and take a picture of a certain Manga. When you win a round (more than one winner per round!) you get 2 points. If you win twice in a row the amount of points you get decreases (2nd win gets you 1.5 points, third and anything after gives you 1). [SIZE=4][FONT=Franklin gothic medium]Sounds cool, where do I sign up?[/FONT][/SIZE] That's the beauty. Anyone can enter and leave at any point in time. No sign ups are required at all. Your points will be waiting for you if you skip out a round. [SIZE=4][FONT=Franklin gothic medium]That's all![/FONT][/SIZE] Simple right? Any questions about BOBAE should be asked here. I'll also post an FAQ with important Q&A soon. BOBAE has started![/FONT] [SIZE=4][center][U][b]INDEX[/b][/U] [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?p=770405#post770405]Round 1[/url] [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showpost.php?p=771155&postcount=62]Round 2[/url] [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?p=772096&posted=1#post772096]Round 3[/url][/center][/SIZE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandy Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Congrats on making an event that's seemingly both easily approachable and member-friendly, Whitey. ;D I'll be following it closely, perhaps I'll find myself even participating on a few rounds, even though my anime/manga-knowledge is pathetic.

Ikillion Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 [COLOR=#0e1030][SIZE=1][FONT=Trebuchet MS]Wow, its nice to see all of the fresh blood this thing is turning out, This seems like the OB scavenger hunt from this past summer without the scavenging part. Which is good since that event was awesome. Yet it looks like I'll have to get back to work. [I]OH SNAP![/I][/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavin Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 [SIZE=1]Looks fun, I'll be sure to keep and eye on it despite the fact my anime knowledge is pretty much non-existent outside of DBZ/GT.[/SIZE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riku Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 [COLOR=DarkSlateBlue][SIZE=1][FONT=Tahoma]Sweet... this sounds like a whole lot of fun. Count me in, Stephen, you already knew I would. ;] As for taking screen shots at your local bookstore, that's going to be fairly hard, as how where I live in England, the nearest place that has manga is an hour away. But whatever, I shall do it for justice!! Or my nerdy otaku way, anyway. My knowledge goes a long way in anime and manga, so... this'll be fun.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
