Was my item DQ?


RPG Superstar™ General Discussion


I am voting and do not see my item. I realize now that I made some formatting errors. This is my first time entering and creating an item. Any way to see if I was DQ? Please and thanks

Melon, check out my ongoing list of items I see during voting. You can CTRL + F your item name to see if I've seen it.

We do not inform folks if your item was disqualified.

I've been voting for several hundred items and I haven't seen mine yet, so I wouldn't worry yet! Unless you committed copyright infringement, made a non-Pathfinder item, or submitted a Wondrous Item, your entry should still be tumbling around in there somewhere.


OK, thanks. Guess I will keep voting and see if I spot it. Will I ever know if it got DQ?

If you dont make Top 32, then a day or so after reveal a voluntary critique thread opens up. You can post your item there.

You will soon find out if there was a problem that might be a DQ reason, but you will also get some useful feedback on where you might have gone astray.


Thanks for the help guys and gals. I am new to this, but if I was DQ, I will be sure to come back next year better prepared.

Did you check headkase's list for your item?

Don't worry if you don't see your item. Last year I was watching for a friends and I didn't see it for three days, after I made Star Voter. Some Items in the top 32 I never saw.

You were not DQ, I am DQ. ;) (Don't mind me, I am required to make this joke as much as possible.)

You however probably not DQed, or rather, disqualified, unless your item was more than 300 words, you made a wondrous item, you made an item for a system other than Pathfinder, you identify your item before the round is completed, or you otherwise broke one of the rules listed on the rules page.

Don't fret if you don't see your own item, in past contests I've seldom seen mine but I've later learned mine made it through the voting. AFTER--PLEASE NOTE AFTER--the top 32 are announced in January, if you are not one of the top 32, you can post the name of your item and people can say whether they've seen it or not.


I have voted well over 500 times and have seen my item only twice. You are unlikely to see a specific item. There are over 600 unique items according to Feros. You have a .3%, or less, chance to see your item on any one vote.
