  A quick reminder that the week 2 submission period ends in 20 hours! Be sure to have your skins up before then, and have your polls set to go as soon as you and your opponent are ready. The currently active polls can be found right here!

  Week 2 Polls
  Season 5, Week 2 polls are starting to come out! This is the part where you can get involved even if you aren't a competitor. Everyone is welcome to vote.
  Many of these polls will soon enough be in the last few hours available to place your vote. So get your votes in soon!
  
  As always, vote fairly. Don't vote based on username, but instead use your vote on the skin you like the most and you think made the best use of the palette given. If you have multiple accounts, only vote on 1 account.
  
  This list will be updated as the rest of the polls come out!
  Hansby vs. Nah - their first poll was a draw so remember to get your vote in for this one!

  Season 5 Week 2 has arrived!
  We had a very painful week 1 where we reduced 41 impressive entrants to a mere 16 for this second week, thank you all for making amazing skins this week, we hope to see you next season. For the 16 that made it through, congratulations!
  
  This week, we're reducing the amount of colours you have available to you; we present to you a 9 colour grid of which you can choose only 6 colours to use for your skin! The grid image, a skin file and a PMCSkin3D palette link can of course be found on the SSPBL group profile sidebar. The match-ups will be announced in a follow-up wall post shortly.
  
  Good luck to everyone! The deadline is the 17th of May 11:59 pm UTC
  
  The grid is the following:

FAQs
How does PBL work?
1. Making use of the palette and its ruleset, you must create and publish a skin within the deadline. You have from when the palette goes live (Typically a Monday or Tuesday) until the following Saturday (or the given deadline) to publish your skin.
The palette can be found to the right of this FAQ, or in the #stream-server-pbl channel in our Discord server! If you have any further questions or are looking for feedback on your skin, this is the place to go!
2. After the preliminary round, contestants will be paired up with an opponent whom they will face in a public poll. This poll determines who moves on to the next round.

! If you find you're unable to make a skin within the official deadline, notify Noobator. Extensions can be given TO AN EXTENT, never more than 24 hours.

! If you fail to make a skin in time, you'll automatically be disqualified and your opponent will move on to the next round uncontested.

3. If all goes well and both you and your opponent have uploaded your skins, one of you must then create a forum thread containing a poll that runs for 24 hours. The winner of this poll moves on to the following week, with a new palette and ruleset.

Here is a good example of how one of these threads should look.

4. All skins created must comply with the PMC submission rules.
How do I enter?
Sign-up is simple! Create and upload a skin utilising 12 OR LESS colours from this week's palette, before the deadline and you're qualified! No need to worry about opponents or polls until week 1 begins.

You can always find the up-to-date palette and its accompanying gimmick in this post. Once you have uploaded your skin, you can either tag Noobator, DragonsDungeon, Allergy_Man, or post your skin in our guest book to be sure that one of us sees it.

Sign-ups are only available during the preliminary period of PBL, if week 1 has already begun, you'll have to wait until the season ends. You will be able to submit sign-ups once the new season's preliminary phase begins. This will be announced via wall posts.
What's a gimmick?
Historically, PBL had always offered a grid of 16 colours from which contestants may only use 12 in their skin. However, season 4 shook things up!

Each week's palette will feature its own unique accompany gimmick that must also be taken into consideration. These will increase in complexity as the season progresses, which should hopefully keep skinners on their feet and produce some more unique and memorable rounds!

The current week's gimmick can be found alongside the palette on the group page.
How do I make a poll?
How to make PBL Polls - Click me!
When do I post the poll?
You should post the poll as soon as everyone in your grouping has made their skins. If earlier in the week, you may set the poll duration to 2 days. But if close to the deadline please set it to 1 day.
What if my opponent didn't post a skin?
Please allow your opponent enough time to make an entry. They might be busy with IRL stuff and don't have the time to make a skin until close to the deadline.

You will not be disqualified if your opponent does not make a skin. Please contact a member of the SSPBL team if you find yourself in this situation and we will provide more information.

  Hey cool skin! This season has already started (that’s why we’re on week 2), so you won’t be able to enter this season, but feel free to keep on making skins for fun or practice for the rest of the season. You can keep an eye out on the page next month to enter when we start the next season!

- Stream Server PBL - Season 4 Week 2!
  XTLJENNY 4/4/2022 7:15 am
  83 emeralds 7.6k 203
This thread is (for now) defunct. Go check out the new dedicated group page!

The "Stream Server Palette Battle League" is a bracket-style competition where 24+ skinners are tasked to create a skin with the given palette, uniquely made each week. These skins go head to head in a public poll where only the winner can progress to the next round - until the final week, where one champion comes out on top!

How do I enter?
Sign-up is simple! Create and upload a skin utilising 12 OR LESS colours from the palette found below, before the 31st of January 2022 and you're qualified! No need to worry about opponents or polls until week 1.

The Rules:
1. Making use of the palette, upload a skin within the deadline every week. You have from when the palette goes live (Typically a Monday or Tuesday) until the following Saturday to publish your skin.

The palette can be found further down this post, or in the #stream-server-pbl channel in our Discord server! If you have any further questions or are looking for feedback on your skin, this is the place to go!

2. If you find you're unable to make a skin within the official deadline, notify Bureine. Extensions can be given TO AN EXTENT, usually no more than 24 hours.

3. If you fail to make a skin in time, you'll automatically be disqualified and your opponent will move on to the next round uncontested.

4. If all goes well and both you and your opponent have uploaded your skins, one of you must then create a forum thread containing a poll that runs for 24 hours. Be sure to let Bureine know if you suspect he doesn't already, either through his PMs or the aforementioned Discord server.

Here is a good example of how one of these threads should look.

5. All skins created must comply with the PMC submission rules.

The Gimmick(s):
Season 4 of SSPBL is shaking things up! Each week's palette will feature an accompanying 'gimmick' that must also be considered. These will increase in complexity as the season progresses, which should hopefully keep skinners on their feet and produce some more unique and memorable rounds!

Starting simple with the preliminaries, we have created a 24 colour palette below from which you are permitted to pick out 12 OR LESS colours to use in your skin. Using any more than 12 shades will disqualify you from progressing.

The Palette:

Skin File:

Gimmick: Standard grid palette, make sure you only use 12 of the 16 shades of the grid. The special thing about the palette is that each shade is a recycled shade from a previous PBL palette spanning all the way from season 1 week 1!
Deadline: 13th of February
