Information

Tribe vs Tribe seasonal contests are a 3-month competition where tribes compete for a fabulous prize! Each tribe is allowed 30 entries per season, and can be posted at any point, which are judged Continuous-Events style. These points are added all together and the tribe with the most points at the end of the season wins!

> The current season's prompts can be found on the latest TvT journal. <
