As you may know, we are now starting the first annual Tournament Players' Association All-Star Month!! The Main Event of All-Star Month will be a miniature tournament - starting Monday, January 26 - for those players voted as All-Stars by our team of semi-anonymous voters, but All-Star Month will also feature Skills Competitions - starting Monday, January 19 - for those players who have participated, are participating, and have signed up to participate in a TPA5 tournament as of the time of this post.
But that's not all - All-Star Month will also feature a Fan Event for those of you who are not currently involved with the TPA5! The Fan Event will be divided into 4 events, each of which will be open for 1 week. These events will be fun, will challenge your creativity, and may also win you some fabulous prizes!! NOTE: Players eligible to participate in All-Star Month by virtue of having participated or being scheduled to participate in a TPA5 tournament are not eligible to participate in the Fan Event.
Since we only received submissions from 3 players, and the submissions we received are quite good, we have decided to award each of these 3 players with a General Achievement Medal and 500 Conquer Credits. These 3 players are: risky_biznezz, robellis00, and dakky21. Since dakky21 submitted entries for 4 separate categories, he will receive an extra 500 Conquer Credits. Here are their entries:
Unfortunately, we did not have any submissions for this event.
Last week marked the start of the All-Star Skills Competition - TPA5 players are competing in various events designed to show off specific CC skills. Now, it's your turn!! The fourth and final fan event of TPA5 All-Star Month will be the TPA5 All-Star Fan Skills Challenge!! Games have been created for you guys to try your hand at the various skills exhibited by your fellow players. To find available games, click this link. For the rules of each competition, see this post. Any games not full by Sunday, February 1, 23:59:59 CC Time will be dropped.
Good luck, enjoy, and have fun!! sempai

I didn't get a chance to post it yesterday. I'm posting it now, and it will actually run a bit longer.

Players have another week to vote, and the only people ineligible to contribute to the fan ballot are those who are on the ballot and the judges who were asked to submit their own individual ballots.

The people you are asking to vote, have no interest in the TPA, because by definition, they have never played in a single event. Furthermore, even if they had a slight interest in this thing, they wouldn't know who to vote for because they don't play against us in this thing. Perhaps the eligible players should be the voters, those with the knowledge to make an educated vote. You could also add the caveat that you must vote to remain eligible. That would work .
I think there is still time to pm the eligible players and have them all post their votes to the thread, as opposed to replying to the pm.

That's why we're doing this - we're trying to get those players interested in the TPA by giving them other ways to get involved.

That's not necessarily true. - the TPA is not all there is to CC. These players play with and against us in other games on CC.

That might be an idea to consider for next year.
Keep in mind that this is the first time we're actually doing any of this, so it's going to be a bit of a learning experience.

WOOHOO! Thanks for the opportunity to participate, and for the credits. I might have to get some premium time with those credits! Looking forward to many more opportunities. Conquer on.

Truth be told, I would have liked to have given you more time, but since we only had 1 month for the entire event, I couldn't use the full month for each contest.
