Total payout per contest: $1300 (This is merely a guideline. We reserve the right to vary contest payouts in any fashion we like, at any time, based on the idiosyncratic makeup of each contest, the # of competitors deserving of prize winnings and the overall quality of submissions.) Please scroll down, below the ranking table, to see guidelines on how we determine who wins what prizes. We reserve the right to not award all 6 prizes in any given contest if there are only a few contestants submitting high caliber material. . Current Rankings For 15 Day Contest. Below are the current standings for this 15 day contest period. Each color group contains two columns. The first is a sum, count or average for the judging category. The second, the R column, is the member's current ranking within that judging category. See the key beneath the table for a more complete explanation. Note: Clicking on any of the column headers of this table will re-order the table based on that column. These rankings are for clips that members during this contest period have submitted, that were approved, got more than four votes by other members, and are currently available for judging.
Only females or couples are eligible. Sorry guys ;-). Also, only nude clips are considered for the contest. How do you win? This is a contest and as such it will be run entirely as a 'meritocracy' from this point forward. Those who produce the best clips, in sufficient volume, to beat their fellow contestants, will win prizes that reflect their relative competitive standings. Each contestant can submit a maximum of 2.5 hours per 15 day contest. Once a contestant has reached at least 90 minutes, she/they will be considered amongst the upper tier of posters, and 'quality' differences will be 'more decisive' than who posted more content. Of course, if b/w any two members content is comparable in quality, then more content will help. Former winners are eligible, but the onus is on them to produce high quality, creative, compelling clips worthy of winning again. Lack of imagination and repetition will not be rewarded. Of course, if what is being 'repeated' is very engaging, exciting footage, then that's quite acceptable. Strategy and decision making about when to compete hard and try to win 1st place outright versus deciding to go to lesser effort and instead strategically settling for a runner up position rest solely with the contestants. We take zero responsibility for this. All judging decisions are made by a panel of 3 judges. Decisions are final. In order to bias members more toward 'quality' clips rather than repetition and 'grinding out longer run times', we're going to start flagging particularly great clips with 'Editor's Choice' citations (ECCs) in their 'captions' and this will play a significant role in who wins what prizes, of course, in 'combination with' all of the other factors that have been delineated elsewhere. ECCs will NOT be handed out immediately or on a particular schedule or frequency. They will be given 'as the judges' are able to reach consensus. Who receives ECCs and when is entirely 'random' until the 'very end' of the contest, when all content is necessarily reviewed by ALL judges and a final consensus is reached on all content submitted throughout the 15-day contest period. A particular contestant might receive 0 ECCs for 14 days b/c all 3 judges had not reviewed their content, yet might have 10 ECCs awarded 10 minutes before the 15-day contest ends. Alternatively, another 'lucky' member might have 5 ECCs awarded within 2 minutes of submitting each of their first 5 clips b/c all judges happened to be available at the same time, reviewed these clips instantly, and made an immediate decision. It is entirely happenstance, based on the judges' viewing patterns and schedules. Ultimately, it is the 'final' tally, once the contest has ended, that carries weight. Note: multi-part, smaller clips that are submitted separately and are ultimately only a single clip, are only eligible for a single citation. This rules exists so that contestants don't submit very small, multi-part clips (less than 1 minute each, for example), hoping to receive 'multiple' Editor's Choice citations when their multi-part series is really only a single clip that should ideally be compressed into '1' creative unit. On the other hand, if a contestant submits a 20-30 minute long clip, and does split it into 2-3 parts, and each part due to length and content, is substantial enough to stand alone as a creative unit, then it WILL be appropriate to give a multi-part 'series' Editor's Choice citations on any of the 'parts', where merited. Please relax and realize that the people who run this site are not MORONS. We are well aware of various 'tactics' that can be employed to manipulate these rules to a contestant's benefit. If another member is submitting very long and very compressed clips as 'single units' then, indeed, they might receive far fewer ECCs than other members who consciously split their longer clips into 'smaller units' with the hope of capitalizing on MORE ECCs. Also, we are WELL AWARE of malicious tactics sometimes used by unscrupulous competitors to try to undermine other participants. It is sad that people will not follow the 'honor system' and behave properly without being policed. 'Ratings' are only ONE factor considered in who wins. Your entire BODY OF WORK within the contest period will be considered when the final results are decided upon. If your content is 'obviously' fantastic and superior to that of one of your competitors, yet MIRACULOUSLY this competitor always seems to have higher ratings, we will OBVIOUSLY factor this in. If you have impressive content, yet your 'average rating' is a 5/10, believe us when we tell you, we will CERTAINLY notice this very strange discrepancy. Also, if there are 'patterns' where a member or members are consistently behaving in a destructive, unsportsmanlike fashion, we will 'ban' them and award them no prize money whatsoever. As in any contest, please refrain from trying to 'influence' the results by contacting those who run the contest (i.e. the owner of the website, administrators etc.) with the explicit intent of trying to curry favor to sway final decisions on ECCs or final standings. We don't need to receive 'policing' reports on the behavior of other members nor 'promotional' emails trumpeting the greatness of any particular clip. The short version of this is really simple: Play fair and play nice and HAVE FUN. Focus on doing 'your best'. The rest will take care of itself. If your competitors are not doing the same, WE will notice this. It will have ZERO impact on your final standings or prize winnings. Also, although any member who submits more than 1.5 hours of content is automatically considered in the 'upper tier' of posters, this does not preclude someone from winning who happens to submit only, say, 1 hour of content, yet whose content is of such exceptional quality that almost all of their clips receive Editor's Choice citations. As indicated by our rating table, in determining our winners, we will also factor in obvious variables such as the 'quality' and 'length' of your videos, the average 'rating' of your videos, and the 'quantity' and 'regularity' of videos submitted over the course of the 15 days. TT judges will make their decision after taking into account 'everything' that has been stated above. Click here to return to previous page Chat with our "live" webcam hotties for FREE. Click here!
