Shimmer Event Rules, Guidelines, and Limitations
The Beasts of Bermuda Official Staff (Moderators and above) reserve the right to deny skins to participants who are offenders regarding the Event and its rules for any reason deemed appropriate by the Staff, including but not limited to bad behavior, falsifying information, or finding loopholes within the conditions written for the event. Participants who break these terms can be reported, and if adequate proof is provided, and they cannot provide counter evidence to defend themselves, may be denied the skin, and if the offense is bad enough, or retaliation occurs, may also be banned from future events. If you have questions regarding these conditions, contact the Head Moderator or Quality Assurance Manager.
Event Guidelines and Requirements
Avoid being any shorter than the minimum, or longer than the maximum for your video entry:
Minimum Video Time: 30 seconds.
Maximum Video Time: 20 minutes.
- The creature the Shimmer is for must be featured as the primary subject in the video. This can be done with gameplay recording, or other means that are listed in the examples below. If your entry does not contain game footage, it must contain some other indicator that the video is connected to Beasts of Bermuda.
- Must contain more than just raw game footage if you are choosing gameplay as your route for your entry. (Raw footage is recording the game with or without sound, and then uploading it without doing anything else to it.)
- Doing any of these things to/for your video can potentially qualify you to recieve the skin, and are listed here as examples, but may not be the only limitations if good effort is noticable:
- Adding Music, Sound Effects, Memes, or other things of that nature throughout your video.
- Speed Paints.
- Animations.
- Vocal work (such as Documentaries or "Lets Plays".)
- Scene switching.
- Other forms of editing such as adding text, or special effects.
- You do not require high-end hardware or software to enter. Having watermarks in the video as a result of using trial on a program, or having bad FPS will not effect your chances of getting the skin as a normal entry. The only thing this may effect is your chances of getting Spotlight on the Announcements when the Event is over.
Additional Conditions
- One skin per person (You may pick which account, but may not put your alt accounts as participants to gain more skins for yourself. Getting caught attempting to do this may result in denial of skin from all known accounts of the offender.)
- Max number of Participants is 5 (five) people.
- If your video has more than 5 participants, and the video is picked as a favorite of the Staff to receive a Spotlight in Announcements, all participants for the video will receive the skin. Spotlight videos are chosen by vote by the Official Beasts of Bermuda Staff, and are selected based on overall visible effort, quality, and uniqueness, so do your best if you want to try to earn Spotlight.
- This event is NOT a contest! If you meet the basic participant requirements, up to 5 people of your participating group will still receive the skin, earning Spotlight only allows the qualifying video to earn skins for higher than the 5 participant limit.
- You must communicate with those planning to participate and clarify between your participants(if there are more than the max permitted number of participants) who will get the skin prior to putting the work in, in the event that your video does not get Spotlight.
- Participants count as the following:
- Actors who are aware and made prior arrangements with you to be involved in your video.
- Recorders
- Video Editors
- You cannot include non-participants to receive the skin unless they qualify in one of the above categories.
