WARNING: I TALK TOO MUCH.
So is anyone familiar with OCT's (Original Character Tournaments) on Devintart? Well I've seen quite a few, for example, the Endzone tournament, Law of Talos, Corrupted Core, Infractus Fatality, and Escape from Nevara. Obviously, they are fighting tournaments between different people's characters. Each person is judged by how well his or her entry is made, the fight, and probably some kind of storyline.
However, one thing I didn't quite get was that, in Law of Talos, I noticed that the director of the tournament herself added story to the tournament. Same thing with Corrupted Core.
So, basically I'm asking: Does every single person involved in the tournament including judges and director add to it? Not just judge? Is every contestant's entries somewhat tied to each other from following the director's part of the story? If the judges participate, what are their characters used for?
I am also wondering: Does every tournament work the same way or do they differ depending on who's directing them? Are people required to have something like some kind of social status on deviantart or subscriptions? Or can people start up tournaments whenever they feel like it?
And if I'm missing any information I'd like to know.
Ahhh, so many questions sweatdrop

I can't really answer your questions because each OCT have its own set of rules, there's really not a general norm for these kind of things.
I would advice you read their journals VERY VERY carefully if you want to join.
But no, you don't have to have some sort of social status. Some of the OCTs are private, but I don't think it really revolves around popularity. Of course you can start your own OCT anytime. But keep in mind of the responsibilities you'll have.

Each OCT is quite different, so you have to read the info carefully. BUT, lately, most OCTs are becoming not so original and becoming more restrictive on everyone's imaginations. So, if you want to join an OCT, be picky on your choices. Because I learned this the hard way. @A@;;
