Now for the small print: (as we have to have it)

1. Each week you will be issued a challenge and you can earn extra credit by using one of the pebble lines that SWG carries! (this will give your team and extra 5 pts per person that uses these lines! So check out the store! For more details). Each challenge that you complete will earn your team points. There will be a possible of 20 points per week per person that you can earn for your team (and then of course the extra 5 points for using the newer products from pebbles that are carried in the SWG store)

2. You may miss 1 week from the contest. However, (beware) if your team is the “losing team” that week…you may still be voted out.

3. There will be 1 challenge that will require the use of 90% pebbles product…however keep in mind that using the new pebbles products each week can earn you an extra 5pts to your weekly score! (see the SWG store for details)

4. Each Monday you will be issued a new challenge and your assignments must be uploaded into the appropriate galleries by Sunday at noon CST! Of that week!

5. The Refs (Current Dt, SWG store owner, DT Coordinator) will then score the layouts…and then the team scores will be added together. The team with the highest score that week…will get to rest up! While the team with the lowest score will head to the referee box…where they will all have to vote off some team members (weekly elimination will depend on how many people sign up for the contest! *details of how many to be voted off will be given at the beginning of each week)

6. The players that are voted off…will be posted by Monday @ 2pm CST. If you do not vote before noon on Monday for which player you would like to see voted off you forfeit your vote. Also if there is a tie that needs to be broken…it will be broken by the person that scored the highest that week for the team.
