What the heck is a scratch-off?

I know, I've been scratching for 4 years now and I don't know what a scratch-off is? Well, I've been using the forums since 3 months ago.  tongue  Anyway, do you just openly challenge somebody? Or do you ask them, and if they say yes, you do it? Or what? Can someone explain it to me? Thanks.  big_smile

Re: What the heck is a scratch-off?

A Scratch Off is a contest to see who can make the best project.


Your music tastes are bad, therefore your argument is irrelevant.

Re: What the heck is a scratch-off?

Two people each make a project (must be a fresh project, you can't have started work on it), viewers decide which is better.

It roots out the weak.
Kidding.

I gathered that, but do you just say, hey! I challenge Archmage! Or do you have to talk to them beforehand?

People usually do the first one, but you should do the latter.

You should politely ask someone, or make a topic asking others to challenge you.  That way they know you'll accept.

Re: What the heck is a scratch-off?

Its where two people make projects and the most popular one wins.

Here's the best way to challenge someone...

You(on a private channel like a project):Can I have a Scratch Off with you?
Him:Sure!
You:*posts announcement on the forums*

If he declines, post "Challenge Necromaster!" on the forums.

Re: What the heck is a scratch-off?

It's basically when two scratchers try to bring attention to themselves by making a big display out of projects they would've released anyways. Also the loser might quit scratch forever
