Guess what... all of us were, at one time or another, new to the competition world, so we're here to help you. All of our Team Leaders are experienced and know what it's like to be a newbie, so let them know and they will be happy to help you. Since you clicked on this link I'm assuming that you need some help right away so here's some pointers to get you started.

The Welcome letter...

from your TL (Team Leader). You read that, right, and understood everything? If not, all you need to do is ask your TL to clarify a particular point. Also you should have been signed up for your Team's mailing list... why not pose some questions to them? Most team members will be happy to help you along and you'll meet your fellow members that way too! What a great 'ice-breaker!'

Team Pages...

Ok, now would be a great good time to familiarize yourself with your Team's 'home,' and look over all of the pages. There you will find voting times, voting days and the rules for competing. You can see who your team mates are by looking at the Roster Page. The Vote Page will show you the levels of where everyone on your team is at for the current week. Each team has numerous pages full of helpful information. Alright now that you got the hang of your team pages, how about the Mystical Meadows main pages????

Competition Terminology

VE: - A VE is an abbreviation for , 'Vote Exchange,' where you have a partner list and mutually agree to vote for all of the partners on your list.

VE Boards: - These online groups have been created by fighters and members of the competition world. These are sites where competitors who need votes can go to sign up and become part of a VE Board or Club. At each board, you will find many other competitors who are in various competitions around the Web. You should make every effort to visit all of the sites on the board you choose, to show them you are not blind voting. Each board has its own set of rules and instructions, so be sure to read them. VE Boards also have a vote page which gives you an easy place from which to vote for all of your new supporters and for them to vote for you. Remember--you are supporting them too, so be sure to be an honest VE buddy and follow the board's rules.

What is Blind Voting? - This is voting for a site without first visiting the site. Mystical Meadows does not support blind voting which means you need to visit a potential VE partner's site prior to making an agreement. Visiting others' sites is really fun to do, you'll see sites of every topic imaginable, make some friends along the way, and you might even learn some interesting facts too!
