Contestants in the OCT will be judge by this criteria using the 0(fail), 1(pass), 2(average), and 3(well done):

1}Creativity - Did the artist maintain a sense of artistic style .

2}Depth - Was the submission long enough for the given round time line(from start date to due date).

3}Originality - Did the artist make the submission alone (if not, then the contestant will be disqualified for not adhering to the rules); as well was the story and fight original.

4}Storytelling ability - Was there a clear story; a intro>rising action>climax>falling action>end.

5}Effort - Did the submission look like time and skill were put into it.

Along with being graded on your submission(as a whole),you get a brief descriptions on what was good and needed improvement from the judges. There can not be a tie, one must move on. Artist do not have to draw their OC winning/defeating their assigned opponent but must reach the above criteria.
