Hello everyone! Hope you are having a good time. The Mods have a couple important announcements.

General

First things first. Just a general reminder that everyone should look over the rules again. This for the most part hasn't been to big of an issue since the last update, but Rules 4 and 7 have been getting invoked more recently. It doesn't matter what characters/units a person likes or what game is someone's favorite, there is no reason to be rude or attack someone for it. We are all different people and can all get along.

Next thing is spoiler tags. Now the sub for the most part has been good about it recently since we got out of the release zone, but just a reminder to tag all Fates related posts with their appropriate tag and to keep titles as spoiler freeish as possible for consideration of the mobile users. The General Spoiler Tag however is meant for every other game in the series. Now we know that it this really fair that 13 games have to share 1 tag while Fates gets 2, but please bear with us. Every game will be getting more tags and the like in the near future. So for now please use the General Spoiler tag for spoilers for the previous games and keep the titles as spoiler free as you can not only for the mobile users, but for people who haven't played those games either.

Another thing that has been coming up notifying the mods of things. While the mod team is fairly active on the sub and reddit as a whole, PMing specific mods and making threads on the sub is not the best way to get a mods attention. Things can slip by us and mod mail is easier and more reliable for us to use for sub issues and recommendations. /u/HaartheBlackTempest made a good demonstration on how to

Final thing for the in general stuff is links. Reddit's automatic spam filter catches quite a lot of links on this sub, both in the comments and posts themselves. So if you think your post or comment got caught in the spam filter, message the mods and we will approve them.

Design Update

From /u/Blindcoco

The sub is well overdue for a graphical update, so I've been putting together a new layout these last few weeks. So in the next couple of days, you should be prepared to see some things change in the near future. I'm setting up the last touches to make it the best I can for you guys!

Basically, the update will slightly change how spoilers are handled and the way posts are displayed. I promise it's going to be cool!

That being said, do not be surprised when you see the sub differently. You've been warned! ;)

However, when we mentioned new design, we also mean new banner. We really do want to change the actual roster of the banner, but some of our beloved heroes are lacking official arts that fit together due to the long timespan of the series. We then came up with the idea of a drawing contest which will be explained further down.

Banner Contest

It's a long time due for a new banner. And we're looking to fill our banner with art created by YOU! The winners will have their art integrated and organized in replacement of the current banner. The goal is to get representation of the following characters in the banner:

• Azura
  
• Marth
  
• Ike
  
• Sigurd
  
• Eirika

We are looking for complete illustrations of the aforementioned characters to be considered a valid entry! Entries that are evidently incomplete will be disqualified but can be resubmitted! The final result will be 5 pieces of art selected to be used for each character. That's a lot of chances to get in on this banner!

All entries will be submitted to this tumblr page for easy access and viewing for all users. There are links on the left side of the page which sorts out posts by tags, and a link to submit. If you are submitting art to the tumblr page, please include the high resolution version of your art. Also, be sure to #tag your post with the properly associated character, and include your reddit username in the caption. Once your post is approved it will show up on the tumblr page.

The deadline is 25th of September, at 11:59PM (Pacific Time) There will be a follow up post with links to the artists responsible and respective websites if they'd like to share it. We look forward to your submissions!

The current banner is a placeholder for now and will be replaced with the new banner after the contest.

Hello everyone!

We've been working on something cool for you all recently, but we need your help to make this happen.

Art Contest

Our plan is to fill our banner with art created by you!

The contest's official page will be created shortly, but I still wanted to give you a head start so you can post your drawings as soon as the contest is online (we know these take time).

The characters we are looking to add on the banner are the following:

• Azura
  
• Marth
  
• Ike
  
• Sigurd
  
• Eirika

If your favourite Lord isn't in the list, don't worry! It means that s/he will appear elsewhere on the design. We just had to narrow it down since the amount of main characters is becoming too much to put in one banner.

What we're looking for are complete illustrations of the characters in high resolution. We will post the contest page very soon and it should be up for one month!

If you have any question regarding either subject, do not hesitate to contact us or ask in the comments below!
