Simple Rules;
Anything goes. (Female, male, hermie - but for a reason like pollen etc. any excuse will do, indoor/outdoor, soil / hydro - Anything)
Start Saturday Jan. 1st, 2011 - New Year's Day. (break ground within +/-1 week) NO EXCEPTIONS
Must be auto flower capable of growing within time frame. Plant does NOT need to be cut / dried / cured to be considered finished.
ONE Plant only - Must be the same plant from beginning to end. NO EXCEPTIONS (Sorry, this is a honor system. If you must cheat on this simple rule then you have bigger problems in life and you'll need to live with it. Please stick with your one original plant.)

Judging is simple, the judges (voter) votes for favorite plant (for any reason). Only one vote per voter / judge.
Reefer-ee - That's me! I will make the decisions on anything pertaining to this grow. Since this is pretty open, I don't expect many if any issues. You may live in a democracy,, but not here. Decisions are final.
First prize; 30 seconds or less of "attaboys"
Second place; Honorable mention for "also ran"
Third place; Well,,, you're just "shit outta luck" is all that's to it.
End of rules - That's it in a nutshell. Fold / spinle / mutilate all you want. IF something happens to start a unseen issue, decision will be made according to intent. The intent is to show artistic / creative / useful plants with a grower that's not afraid to take chances and with a hobbyist interest.

AFMC's fine print;
These ARE NOT RULES, only suggestions.
All the mortals in the movie had special attributes that helped them win. You and your plant should try and display the same. THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX.
Challenge the wive's tales of what does and doesn't work.
Do something different with your plant. Maybe make it grow like a Christmas tree, dog face, inside a bottle, anything different to show you're special abilities. Be inventive and get away from the plain & simple straight grow. I intended to try and self - pollinate my last AF but didn't make out. Try a combination of techniques that other's say can't be done? This is Mortal Combat, a meer mortal (straight grow) would have little chance of surviving in this Realm (but, anything is possible).
(try to)Keep it fun!
Fighting through obsticles should get you points. Don't give up. Asking for help, researching answers, posting on other threads for help are all legal and within the rules (simply because there are none against it)
Keeping tabs on other contestants and dealing with hecklers, non-contestant postings, Moderator's input, etc. are all things YOU may need to deal with in your own way to make it to the end. There are no rules against any of this other than the RIU Rules as pertaining to site usage.
You think you're good? Here's your chance to show off your stuff.
On the voting - Anyone can vote for their favorite for any reason. That pretty much levels the playing field.
Play the game. Make people want to vote for you and your plant by whatever means you can come up with.
