Basics
-
- SIG (Supreme International Grappling) is an e-fed where competitors take part in Live promos, and where fellow competitors vote on who they think wrote and did the best, overall.
- SIG is managed by a booker, who usually consults those within staff.
- Staff is a group that advises, helps, books and works with the booker to put out a good e-fed
- The current SIG booker is @Roadster
- SIG is not mean't to be taken seriously, it is expected that you show respect to everyone and of staff.
- You are free to create and advance storylines, angles and feuds and to cut promos to develop and advance your character.

Promos -
- If we learn that you are getting your promos written by another person, you will be punished. Punishment varies depending on the degree of the violation.
- Collaborations require the credit for both competitors.
- Not competing in your match, without a valid reason has a 3 strike limit as well. The 1st strike results in a No Contest. 2nd will be the same as the 1st, and if the 3rd is reached a 2nd Degree punishment will be handed out, following up with an indefinite suspension if it's reached to 4-5.
- If you're gonna delete or edit your promo, please tell your opponent, unless it's minor or quick. This only applies if both competitors are online at the same time.
Roleplays, as in having characters do something, without the characters consent will result in a No Contest. 2 further violations will result in Expulsion.
- Attacking NPC such as announcers, interviewers etc is allowed but constant altercations can result in a warning.
- Attacking the audience is allowed, but constantly attacking will result in a warning.
- You can do as you wish, but anything that has to do with murder, sexual abuse or homicidal actions towards another person or character will result in an automatic No Contest and Suspension. Persistent violations will result in expulsion, without another warning. If something is warranted with the agreement of the victim member, you have limited immunity. But excessive violations will be handled with a 3rd Degree punishment regardless of consent.
- Roleplays, as in having characters do something, without the characters consent will result in a No Contest. 2 further violations will result in Expulsion.
- Attacking NPC such as announcers, interviewers etc is allowed but constant altercations can result in a warning.

- The "Match" prefix is reserved to be used only by staff members.

Shows & Matches -
- SIG shows are booked by Roadster with help from staff and requests from members of the roster.
- The two types of SIG events include "House Shows" and "PPVs"
- House Shows are impromptu matches that are made at the request of those involved. They have no criteria.
- Titles can be defended at both types of shows, but house shows must have the consent of the champion.
- PPVs are pre-planned, and are the biggest shows of the month.
- SIG PPVs have no defined date, but rather are set at the best possible time of the month.
- SIG Preview Cards are posted prior to the event with the event logo, theme song and location.
- Each PPV will have it's own special press conference.
- Press conferences are threads that allow for pre-planned guests as well as un-planned guests to have last minute build for their matches and feuds.
- Matches, for both PPVs and House Shows, take place in their special threads that are posted either on the specified date, in the event of a PPV match, or at the requested date, in the event of a House Show match.
- Main Event PPV matches have no limit on how many promos can be posted.
- All undercard and House Show matches have a 2 promo limit.
- All matches must have their first promo posted within 24 hours.
- OOC and Off-Topic posts are not welcomed, during a match, while it takes place.
- Main Event matches have no limits on promos, while all (unless a stipulation is in effect) matches will be a 2 promo limit.
- The first overall promo must be posted within 24 hours of the thread being posted.
- It is generally expected for the match to be done as soon as possible.
- Though no pre-set deadlines are set, Staff retains the right to set deadlines, end and restart matches.

Voting -
- SIG voting is done within in-thread polls.
- SIG voting is sanctioned and controlled by SIG Creative and it's booker(s)
- SIG management reserves the right to remove, change or alter voting if inaccuracies or untruthful votes are cast.
- The community is encouraged to inform management of potential bias or inaccuracies.
- Pandering, asking or attempting to garner inaccurate votes will result in a in a Level 2 or Level 3 (depending on frequency) punishment.
- Voting should be based off of coherency, entertainment value and overall creativity.
