Hey guys! I’m back with some more chooby goodness. As some of you know I put up a post about Word Mania, if you haven’t seen it click here. So there are 10 days left to sign up for Word Mania and participate for the Qualifying Rounds. I decided to let you guys know so you can be alerted that the event is coming. So I’m going to talk to you about the rest of the features of Word Mania which I didn’t tell you in my previous post.
Rules
So there are 9 rules in Word Mania and they are;
Scoring
Participants will be given 15 randomly selected letters displayed on the screen. They have to create words using the letters on the screen. Scores are awarded if the word is appropriate and more points for the length and it’s complexity.
Acceptable use
Words appearing on this list are invalid and will not generate a score.
Players must be registered by a parent or guardian
An adult must register a kid to play the National Word Mania Challenge. They must be in the correct age group, school and state.
Acceptance of terms and conditions
Parents must read and accept the terms and conditions when registering students. (Yet no one ever reads them!)
Use of registered accounts
A kid must not share an accout or make more and
A student must not share their account with other students or create multiple accounts. Only the named student, registered in their correct age group, may use the account to play the games.
Rounds:
The registration round is open from 17 August 2012 – 21 October 2012.
Qualifying Round
The qualifying round will take place from the 22 – 28 October 2012. Players can register during the registration round and the qualifying round Students scoring in the top 25% of each age group will move into the State finals round.

The semi-finals will run from the 29 – 31 October 2012. The top 15 students from each age group will progress to the grand final.

The final is on the 1 November 2012. Top scoring students in each age group will win the final prize. Secondary prizes are awarded to State finalists.

Games to be played
Each student can play up to 25 games in the qualifying round, 15 games in the semi-final and 5 games in the grand final. Students are not required to play every game in each round.
The best 15 scores in the qualifying round, the best 10 scores in the semi-final, and a total score in the grand final will be used to determine each student’s overall scores in each round.
Identity dispute
If there is a dispute as to the identity of an entrant, Intrepica Pty Ltd reserves the right to suspend and/or terminate the student’s registered account.
Honesty
The competition relies on the honesty of entrants who are participating in the competition to use their own skills and ability.
So those were the rules you need to follow and now I’m going to move onto the prizes you may obtain.
Prizes
