Categories
Cooking
Due to the delicate nature of cooking entries, this category will be judged first.
Entries will be judged on taste, texture, appetizing presentation and difficulty. There will be 3 judges and entrants will need to provide enough of each entry for all of them to taste. Be prepared to have a way to maintain your own dish until it can be judged (hot/cold). Bring plates, cups and utensils if they will be needed to judge your entry.
Appetizer: A dish intended to be served as an appetizer. Main: Course: A dish intended to be served as a main course. Dessert: A dish intended to be served as a dessert. Other: A dish or drink that does not fit into any other category.
Writing
Entries will be judged, where applicable, on form, content, grammar, spelling and usefulness to the body of Amtgard knowledge. With the exception of publications, please try to limit these entries to 5 pages or less. Publications entries only require one copy. All entries need to be emailed to the Regent except for Publication.
Factual: Writing that presents factual information such as a process, event or research of some kind. Examples would be weapon smithing instructions, a recounting of an Amtgard event or a history of the Mongols. When presenting researched information, it is a good idea to site references and give credit. Fictional: Writing that is not intended to be factual such as a persona histories and stories. Poetry: Poetic verse. Publications: Published works such as newsletters, books, collections of articles, etc. These entries are judges on the editorial content only, such as presentation, suitability of the collection, format, etc. It is not necessary that the entrant have written every article. However, articles should never be published without the author’s consent and credit should be given. Any work not done by the entrant should be noted.
Bardic
Entries will be judged on difficulty and entertainment value.
Singing: A vocal presentation with some expectation of rhythm and pitch. Oratory: A vocal presentation with no expectation of rhythm or pitch; i.e. Storytelling, jokes and theatrical pieces. Instrumental: A musical presentation performed on an instrument with some expectation of rhythm and pitch. Dance: A presentation of bodily movement with some expectation of rhythm. Other: Like fire stuff
Art
Entries will be judged on artistic presentation and the difficulty of the medium.
2-D Art: Art intended to be viewed from only one side such as drawings, paintings, stained glass, relief carving, computer graphics, etc. 3-D Art: Art intended to be viewed from at least 3 sides such as sculptures, painted miniatures, stuffed animals, blown glass, etc. People often enter things into this category that would do better in Passive Construction. 3-D art is judged primarily on artistic presentation; Passive Construction is judged primarily on construction. A stained glass box would go into either 3-D Art of Passive Construction depending on what the entrant wanted to focus. Photo: You know what it is. Judges will be looking at content and how it fits into the Amtgard theme.
Garb
Entries will be judged on durability, attractiveness, design and difficulty.
Fighting: A major item of garb intended to be worn in battle such as tunics, pants, tabards, shirts, etc. Court: A major item of garb not intended to be worn in battle but for Court instead such as dresses, doublets, cloaks, etc. Other Outfits: A major item of garb that does not fight into Court, Fighting, or Monster. This is more for non-flashy garb that is not fit for the field. Monster: A major item of garb that would qualify as garb for a monster in the Amtgard Rulebook. Favor: A gard accessory intended to be worn on one’s belt. Jewelry: A garb accessory intended to worn as jewelry such as crowns, coronets, necklaces, bracelets, rings, etc. Accessory: A minor item of garb such as hats, belts, shoes, bracers, etc. that would not fit into another category.
Construction
Entries are judged on construction, presentation, difficulty and application to proposed function.
Passive: Something not intended to go onto the battlefield such as boxes, steel weapons, decorative wooden weapons, stuffed animals, etc. This is a category for constructed items that would not fit into another category. Active: Something intended to be used on the battlefield such as ballistae, bows, fighting wands or throwing mugs. This is a generic category for things that would not fit into armor, weapon, or shield construction yet are still intended for rough battlefield use. Armor: Something that would qualify as armor by the rulebook standards in Amtgard such as padded armor, chainmail, brigantine, greaves, thigh plates, helmets (although they would not actually count as armor), etc. Weapon: Something that would qualify as a weapon by the rulebook standards in Amtgard such as sword, spear, arrows, rocks, throwing daggers, madus, etc. Shield: Something that would qualify as a shield by rulebook standards in Amtgard. Banner: Something intended to be used as a banner and judged on construction and appearance.
Rose
Anything made for the benefit of the club intended to be donated to the club. These are scored on their construction and design as well as their contribution to Amtgard.

Master Seal, Thanks so much for your offer, I really appriciate it. As you know it is sometimes hard to find good judges and I know you would be an excellelent canidate. Infortunatly judging in quals is considered parcipation and at this time you are not eligiable. I look forward to endrein and reinstating you to full active status at that time.
