Hello, Space Shop!

Would you guys like to join the Diamond Directory? Here, ratings and statistics will be shown to customers like average rating and some other obscure ones like order complete/taken ratio. It may help you guys gain customers if they see statistics they like. It's the second time the Diamond Directory, since @AstraLunI opened the first one, but now I'm in charge.

Link: scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/793296/

If you are interested, it would help if you could fill out as much information as you can here. You don't have to fill out the ones you think take too much time. Thanks!

Hey, just thought I'd check on the progress of my order. No pressure, but I'd at least like an update.

⚫ News from the Shopetition! ⚫
Hello! I hope this finds everybody well. A few months ago, we had an event called the Winter Shopetition where shops could compete, and it started off well, but it quickly became a mess. To prevent this from happening again, I am sending this message to every shop that participated last season of the Shopetition. Please provide feedback on your experiences during the Shopetition and what could have been better. What I am mainly looking for is ideas on how the group stage should run, since that was the most chaotic stage of the last Shopetition. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Season 2 of the Shopetition is underway!

Welcome to the Summer Shopetition 2025, or SS25 for short! Just today, the Shopetition applications have been opened, and shops can now apply to compete in the Shopetition!

You’re probably wondering who I am and what the Shopetition is. I’m bombardingppl, a Scratcher who’s been making art and coding for almost four years. About a year ago, I started The Scratch Lab, which grew into one of the biggest shops before it recently closed due to inactivity. Back when it was active, I hosted the first Shopetition, an event held twice a year (winter and summer) where shops competed for the top spot by earning points, completing orders, and knocking out other teams. It was a really big event in the requests forum, and I think this season will be even better. Now, I know many of the Scratchers here will feel a little uneasy, considering what happened last season , However, these are all of the changes that have been made so that this season is much better!

1. Longer preparation time and transition periods
Last season, there was not enough time for shops to finish all remaining orders and prepare for the Shopetition. This time, we've doubled the time to prepare, which means that during the 12 days that are given to you before the start of the Shopetition, you should be completing all remaining orders, so that you don't so much work to do during the Shopetition, since orders made before the Shopetition begins do not count. The Shopetition will officially begin on June 16. There will also be periods between the group stage and the knockout stage, and the knockout stage and the finals, so that final decisions and announcements can be made.

2. Three-review limit during the group stage
This season, we want to ensure that Shops focus on quality and service, instead of quantity. That's why this season, we're enforcing a three-review limit during the entire group stage so that shops focus on getting high scores on those three instead of rushing to complete as many orders as possible.

3. Better tiebreaker at the end of the group stage
Last season, there was a three-way tie in one of the groups during the group stage, and a tiebreaker had to be made to see who would qualify. Unfortunately, there was no reliable tiebreaker at the time, and a number guess had to be used. It was not fair, and a better tiebreaker had to be used for the next season. This season, if a tiebreaker is needed, a small order will be made by me and reviewed by me, and the shop that receives the better review will qualify.

4. Submitting reviews to me directly during the group stage
Last season, I, myself, had to look through every single shop of the Shopetition to look for orders and check when they were made, and it was a bit tedious. That's why this season, I'm encouraging all staff members to submit orders at the topic of the Shopetition, so that reviews can be better organized and tracked, so fewer mistakes occur. There is a small form you need to fill out when you submit the orders, but it will make the group stage run much smoother.

5. Keeping judges active
Last season, when the knockout stage came and the orders were needed to be judged, many of the judges were not available at the time. This time, better communication when hiring judges to keep the judges active and aware of the event.
Because of all of these changes, we expect that the Shopetition will run much smoother this season. Shopowners, if you would like to apply, please use this form:
Shop Application Form
Username:
Shop Owner:
Shop Link:
Shop Banner (smallest preferred):
Number of staff:
Number of orders completed:
But please note that I will not read forms from your shop, they must be submitted on the Shopetition topic, which is below.

The requirements to compete in the Shopetition are:
-Your shop has more than one staff member (including the owner)
-Your shop has completed at least one order

If your shop gets accepted to The Shopetition, please try to complete any remaining orders you have because they won't count towards your shop points. Close to orders or only accept a few orders at a time, so there isn't so much pressure to complete them all before the start of the Shopetition.

Please make necessary preparations so you are ready for the Shopetition!

If you would like to join, please note that the information from this post is nowhere near how much more important information is on the official Shopetition topic, so please carefully read every last bit.
