WELCOME one and all to our second quarter theme: the pageant court crowning festival!! it is time to crown a new king and queen of pageant court! in order to determine who will hold the crown, we will be having a forumwide competition. there will be TONS of pageants plus new pageant types, rankings, and pageant-related bonuses just for the event!
please note also this is just the preliminary information; there will be more new things introduced and new information announced as the quarter goes on!
👑 how will this work? 👑
the pageant festival is a large scale pageant competition. members will host and enter pageants to earn royal gems and babyz will go up in the rankings as they place! the male and female babyz who have won the most bcrs points at the end will be crowned pageant court king and queen! there will also be other winner categories and runners-up, and all of the royal gems earned will translate to bcrs points at the end of the quarter!
👑 did you say there are NEW pageant types?? 👑
yes! for the duration of this event, we will introduce three new types of standard pageants in addition to the normal ones.
beginner pageants
ideal for pageant newbies or anyone who wants to enter a gentler pageant for quick points. beginner pageants are more lenient in terms of posing accuracy and offer less royal gems than other pageants. every member who enters a baby must place in a beginner pageant unless there are too many members to place everyone.
advanced pageants
advanced pageants are our medium/standard level pageant, for pageant participants who feel they can handle a little more challenge! advanced pageant entries are expected to have strong pose accuracy, and judges will place only the best entries. this means that not every member who enters is guaranteed to place, but also that members may have more than one of their entries place! advanced pageants may judge with as few as 5 placings or as many as 8 depending on quality and amount of entries.
elite pageants
elite pageants are for our pageant veterans. you may only enter 2 babyz, and judges will place as few as 3 babyz but a maximum of 5. these pageants will be given the most scrutiny for pose accuracy and entry quality, but will earn you the highest amount of royal gems!
these new types may only be run by staff to start out, but that may change depending on how things go!
👑 can anyone host a pageant festival pageant or is it mods only? 👑
regular standard and anything goes pageants may be hosted by anyone as normal, and they will count for the festival!
however, only staff members may host the beginner, advanced, and elite pageant types for the time being.
👑 how many royal gems will i earn for doing different things? 👑
here is the official royal gem guide for the pageant festival!

placing

👑 i see you get gems for registering or reinstating babyz during the event. may i register an extra baby? 👑
yes! during this quarter only, members may register an extra baby during the event! per bcrs rules this means you may have up to 4 babyz registered, or 5 babyz registered if you have retired 3 or more. after the event is over, the maximums will go back down to normal, however, you may keep entering all babyz still registered until they retire.
we are also excited to announce that for this event, retired babyz are welcomed and encouraged to be reinstated to earn even more glory!! retired babyz who are reinstated during this quarter may add any new awards, rankings, and titles they earn to their names. elite pageants especially are a great way to showcase your retired pageant stars' true talent!
👑 what are the special pageant festival titles and rankings? 👑
those will be announced soon... just start entering and earning points and you'll find out!
👑 alright, sign me up!! how do i start participating? 👑
register or reinstate any babyz you may want to participate within the limits, and then just start entering! all pageants posted starting today will count for the pageant festival, and pageants posted that are already up will count for amnesty gems (see above gem guide) for the first two weeks of the event!
