Official Rules

Out-of-Character Rules

--Be polite and fair to everyone, regardless of their status. FSEA does not encourage elitism.
--It is never permissable to argue over show results. If you feel an event was judged unfairly, you may go about submitting a report in the proper manner.
--Likewise, bribing or harassing judges is never allowed. Doing so will result in a ban, either temporary or lifetime, from FSEA.
--Don't be a poor sport. If your character does poorly in an event, don't always blame it on illness. You can't win all the time.
--If you announce that your character has an illness or injury, you must refrain from showing for at least one month. Failure to do so will result in disciplinary action.
