-People interested in participating in the contest will sign up prior to the convention and be given the task of preparing a 20-30 bit that they will deliver on stage in the first round of the contest. It will be a first come first serve sign up. If there are not enough participants or some people show up late/not at all, we can take on site participants to fill up the numbers.
-All characters and costumes are allowed but they should be something that does actually exist with content that anyone can find. Original characters are heavily discouraged. Variant/Alternate Universe characters (Ex. Emo “Character”, School Boy/Girl “So and So”) can be allowed but they will have to really sell it in order to make it through the rounds. - Rounds
Round 1: In round one the players will be given a time set between 20-30 seconds to deliver a line, monologue, or action that is befitting to their character. If they exceed the limit they will be stopped and the next contestant will go up and deliver their piece.

Examples could include: Being lost in the jungle/city, having to take out the trash, flying an airplane, delivering an invigorating speech to warriors, seeing a beautiful woman, etc.
