Update: We are no longer swapping partners around.

We have had a few people come back to us and ask to exchange/swap partners due to multiple reasons such as:

• their partner is forfeiting due to a specific circumstance.
• they cannot work well with their partner.
• they haven't received contact from their partner.
• time zones, social media, or other is an obstacle.

We would like to fix this, and re-pair if necessary for the competition to run smoothly. If you are perfectly happy, and in contact with your partner; you have discussed about the competition, please let us know here!

If you are struggling with your partner for one of the above reasons, please make an inline comment here with your reasoning, and we will see if we can re-pair and resolve the issue!

Thank you for your co-operation!

What's next? & important notes:

We are going to be posting a judging rubric/criteria this week for you to all know what your qualifying assignments will be based on.

After this, we hope to provide a mini taster round. It won't be equivalent or important to the actual rounds, however it will help you earn some extra points for the long run if tasks are completed. You will then also be given the opportunity to actually work with your partner and get a feeling for what is to come!

We will not be changing the schedules.

This reason being that our judges will be free during the schedule currently made, and we realise that most participants are perfectly okay with this schedule - if you are not okay during weeks mentioned, please remember that you will have a ticket pass to skip to the next round if you and your partner are qualified to do so.

If you have any further question, please do not be afraid to contact us, through comments, or messages. I will reply tons faster if anyone tags my main account lavendareyes if they need something answered fast. Thanks!
