Oh, hello. I didn't see you there.
Welcome to the 2020 edition of the Nuzlocke Forums Extravaganza! Not just that, but it's actually the 10th anniversary of the Extravaganza, which is certifiably insane. it's my privilege to be running the Ganza this year, flanked by an expert crew of featurers, and I'm straight-up chomping at the bit to get this show on the road yet again! Because of the anniversary, and thanks in large part to the feedback of the community after last year's rendition, we'll be making a couple big changes this go-around, which I'll note as they become applicable. For now, though, let's get to the good stuff!
By popular demand, we've extended this promo period that kicks off the Extravaganza! Any runs that are updated any time in the year of 2020 are eligible for the 2020 Extravaganza. That means there's a whoooole lot of runs to shout out, and a whole lot of reading to do to forget the fiery hellscape that was the year that's just passed us by!
Here are the rules to keep in mind when you post, with changes from last year underlined like this:
Please also note that this is your window to opt out of participation in the Extravaganza. If you would like to opt out, please message a featurer so that we may place your name on the ineligibility list that'll be provided with this year's nomination ballot. We want you to feel comfortable with the event however possible! Participation in the Extravaganza is not mandatory, but we will need your decision in by the 13th of January so we may release an accurate nomination ballot on time.
That's that for this section! Hop over to the discussion thread with any questions or comments you might have, or to check out the full schedule for the Extravaganza this year. These next three(!) weeks are a time to catch up on runs, discover some you might have missed, shout out creators who delivered the goods this year, and just downright reflect! All that'll put you in a real comfy spot heading into nominations, giving you more of an idea of how to fill out your ballots.
We hope this tenth (10th!!!) anniversary of the Extravaganza hits different, in the best way possible! We'll be back with nominations on January the 15th. Happy Nuz Year, y'all!

That means there's a whoooole lot of runs to shout out, and a whole lot of reading to do to forget the fiery hellscape that was the year that's just passed us by!
Here are the rules to keep in mind when you post, with changes from last year underlined like this:
- Why yes, Billy, you can promo yourself! Of course, you should also do your best to spread the love. If you see a particular run is getting a lot of promos, shine the spotlight on someone else as well. Speaking as a creator myself, just a single glance from those bright lights can lift me through a whole day; you have the power to make some days through this!
- The promos period has been extended, and will now run from January 1st to January 20th. There will be overlap between promos period and nominations, though, because nominations will be starting on January 15th again this year!
- If you need a prompt to help you figure out what to promo or how to fill that last slot or two, take a cue from discussions in last year's reflective, and try to find the best hidden gems you think might need a little signal boosting ahead of the Ganza! Who knows how far that could go!
- There is a size limit on each promotion:
- Your overall promo post may only be 1500 characters, not including any snippets. Please only choose one kind of snippet! (Not including freebies. Freebies are freebies. As in, they're free. It's in the word and everything.)
- Length limits for snippets include:
- No more than 250 written words
- No more than 1500 tall pixels of comic, altogether. Please have your images no wider than 800 pixels. (You can use the built in editor to resize your images as needed.)
- No more than 4 screenshots with 10 line breaks, altogether. (But no more than 250 words)
- No more than 30 seconds of video
- A banner within the signature guidelines is a freebie!
- Any amount of fanwork you've done for a run is a freebie! (but if you're opening a vault full of 'em, spoiler it please!)
- You are now limited to 5 promotions in your post, up from 3! More time to promo and more slots to promo sounds like a pretty stellar combo to me.
No bias. - Let people know you promo'd them! Tag them in the post! Post in their thread! Post on their wall! Share it in Discord!
