>What is this?
CRAB is an OCT where artists submit their OCs and participate in a three-round tournament where they are pit against an opponent to fulfill a prompt's task over the other. There are three rounds and thus three prompts that an artist must fulfill featuring their OC facing off against another OC using the theme and prompt as their guideline for content.

>How many people are participating?
40 people assorted into 8 teams with waitlisted contestants for spots that open up in-tourney due to dropouts or sudden departures.

>How long will this take?
From May 17th to Aug 25th.

>Random art battles?
CRAB has had animations, VNs, DOOM.WADs, and more submitted as entries in the past, that's where the 'random art' comes from.

>How does this work?
Main organization is done on Discord but it is not a requirement if you want to stay thread-only, however you do have to host your entries on Cubari or other image hosts to be voted on by other participants. Every voting round will have a provided list available with links to read every entry as easily as possible.

>Is it too late to join?
No, the tournament welcomes people who finish the entry requirements to join the waitlist bench to replace contestants who leave the tournament. You could also join as a Spectator.

FAQ

>How big is a 'large' comic page?
Large comic pages are equivalent to three standard-sized comic pages. If you do the maximum 15 standard comic pages the content the large comic therefore should be equal to this work condensed into 5 large scrollable pages. The relative proportions should be considered.

>Does a cover count towards the total page count?
No, as long as it functions as a cover and not a page that holds story content.

>Can I draw just my character doing the task? Do I have to draw the setting or the opponent?
You must engage with the prompt, the opponent, and the setting in your entry.

>My prompt feels really vague, what am I supposed to do?
Prompts can be fulfilled in any manner that involves the prompt subject with some more straightforward than others. There is no one 'correct' way to engage with a prompt.

"Can I collaborate with my opponent?"
> Collaboration is allowed, you both may submit a continuous entry using your maximum pages or time to accomplish this (so instead of a maximum 15 pages for the entry, a collaboration may submit a maximum of 30 pages, or an animation that is 2:50 in length). Both artists must materially work on their own pages or sections in the collaboration for voting purposes (no one artist doing all the lineart and another the coloring, for example).

>Do I have to draw my character winning or succeeding in the prompt over my opponent?
Winning the prompt is not a requirement to win a round. If your character subverts or fails against their opponent they may still be able to win the round during voting, but this is dependent on the voters during the vote period.

>Can I have help with making my entry?
Material help such as another person doing the lineart or coloring is not allowed.

>I'm on the Bench, how does this work compared to a standard contestant?
Your prompt does not require a faceoff against another artist but to fulfill the conditions of your prompt.

>15 pages?
That's a maximum.

Hey 17ling! Hope your first week of rendering Maple into a fine resin is going swimmingly for ya!

Cat Summer has been plugging away our entries and, while ever so slightly biased, I think our enemies will be facing SERIOUS recompense for their transgressions! Like, it's soooo over for them! ^_^

Keep up the good work, Ling! Excited to see Maple's demise on turn-in day! And as always, if ya need anything, let me know!

Warmest regards,

I keep running into this pattern of drawing frames that are big plot points, but then I procrastinate drawing the connecting panels. They're important for continuity but I don't wanna draw them even though I MUST. Feels like ive drawn all the exciting parts and every remaining panel is vegetables after dessert. I get energized by the parts that prove an idea works, and lose momentum when integration, continuity, refinement, or polishing are necessary. Advice on navigating this kinda thing?

I won't be voting this year... or the next... or the future.
I can finally and genuinely say that I see no point in continuing participating in this tournament. The last three years have been hell for me that its been taking a toll on my mental health. My skills have NOT been improved, and I've been surrounded by hypocritical snakes that claim to care about me but have NO IDEA HOW isolating this was for me. I can no longer look at my characters the same without CRAB's inside jokes and I have no willingness to draw anymore. I thought if I hung out for a little while, maybe there's a chance... But I'm wrong; what's the point of being around people who don't even like me?
Blossom-Anon you hurt me the most; I spent a lot of time thinking and drawing cute ship art, but god forbid I can't roll with the punches and do some bantering? You claim you understand me through my tough experiences with my negligent teams; no you fucking don't. YOU HAVE PRACTICALLY VETERAN PRIVILAGES AND PEOPLE FAWN OVER YOU AND YOUR LORE SHIT. My attempts at such is thrown out the window and laughed at. Another thing to not, if you're going to establish a ship and then pull the rug when things don't go your way prior to the tourney starting; THEN DON'T ESTABLISH IN THE FIRST PLACE. HELL DON'T EVEN HUMOR IT WITH PIER-ANON WHO'S THE BIGGEST FUCKING INSTIGATOR I DON'T KNOW HOW ANYONE EATS HIS SHIT UP.
Uprise-anon: You will never get pitted against me, because you know you will lose because of your under-developed art style. But GM will not allow that, no that would be too easy for me to get a win and we can't let that happen.
"Gary's number one fan" and "Albert Wesker": Both of you are fucking snakes.
This is my final goodbye to CRAB. See you never.
But Goodluck, Cat Summer.

As a benchie... I don't mind staying here. The bench feels like its own little makeshift team. We get grouped together as is already, I don't mind staying here.

i think relying on past years' character arcs and in-jokes feels alienating to a newcomer like myself. I don't really understand what illwill is going on about (>>7966290) but i'm not here to dig up skeletons. I'm here to make art. I enjoyed illwill's R1 comic and planned to vote for it. I'm hoping illwill stays in and keeps making art.
>>
>>7966513
>>bullying other crabs
You're right. We are all putting in time and effort to make Crab5 fun. No glory in low blows that tear each other down. I made these posts because i thought it was funny or clever in the moment, but bullying isnt either of those. I regret these posts. Worse is that i can't delete them.

>>
man, i was planning to do something with illwill too since i scarely got to interact with illwill anon or draw their characters that much

truly a shame
>>
>>7966658
Lmao already backtracking on your apology? Uprise-anon is a dumb retard who hardly interacts with the community at all besides the minimum effort to stay in crab rounds(wasting a slot basically) + shilling his shitty borderline fetishistically generic superhero comic. Poor trade overall with this situation, very on brand for crab though
>>
>>7966677
Nta but you just sound pissy and spiteful now, don't feel that bad for you anymore
>>
>>7966677
I'm not Illwill-anon. I'm saying it's a shitty thing for them to try to just throw shade at Uprise-anon. Yeah, they're not hyper-realistic grimdark, but their style is competent at what it's trying to be.
It's just a low blow to go from complaining that someone didn't honor a ship to trying to shit on someone excited to potentially face off against your character.

>borderline fetishistically
What a weird projection from a coomrotted mindset...

For fucks sake Illwill-anon made their exit as they did, and aired out their feelings about the tourney. I think they have the right to do so.

Writing it here because I realised that I didn't describe her powers in detail:
Maple's power is shapeshifting, restricted only by how she can only shift around her available bio-mass, that she cannot create any elements that doesn't appear naturally in the human body in a significant amount (can't turn herself to gold for example), needing to dedicate brain bandwidth to it depending on complexity, and that any de-attached parts of her will eventually decay out of her control and die off.
Outside of these three point, she has free range, letting her do things such as creating new organs, giving herself armor plating with her bones, or creating pockets in her body

I thought my top 7 would be funnier. I'll try to make the next one better.

Truth is that I don't know how to draw vags and enticing nipples, sorry. The censorship was mostly to get an M on Newgrounds.
I don't know how Atta looks down there so I never intended it to be visible.
The next round will be uncensored from the start. It doesn't make any difference to those that don't like nudity and it won't surprise those that like it anymore.
