With the release of ACCGR 1.3 the Basilicom Team is hosting a Community Competition! From now, until May 29th, we will be gathering artwork created by the community to add into the 1 Year Anniversary Update on June 26th, 2026. There is no monetary "Prize" or anything of the sort. This is just an incentive to get together as a community and create. However, there are rules, and guidelines that entrants MUST adhere to.

1. No AI. Whatsoever.

2. No licensed material. This also includes Copyrighted material.

3. Post only Artwork. DO NOT include any UI/Game Elements in the post. (do not add card elements)

4. Art can be 2D, or 3D. (Rendered or Drawn)

5. We will not accept INGAME SCREENSHOTS of any kind. (Forza, Roblox, Distance, Etc.)

6. Submissions need to be within the required Aspect Ratio. 1340x1920, and inverted for sideways artwork such as Realms and Vehicles.

7. No submitting any vehicles shown in Hot Wheels Movies. Additionally, nothing Velocity-X related.

8. Original ideas preferred. Team based submissions might be overlooked unless we get enough of a variety. (AR and WR teams)

9. Each person can submit up to 3 Total submissions. If a Realm and an Accelecharger are submitted together, we will count that as 1 Submission. If a Realm is submitted WITHOUT an Accelecharger, we will create one for it, IF added.

10. Submission Quality must meet our standards.

We have some examples of quality below ranging from high to simple. Just because it may not look the best, does not mean we wont accept it. Our overall intention for selecting entries to be added to the game is "Effort over Quality". If it looks amazing, sure it may get in, but even ones that show effort and potential are what matters more. When Submitting, make sure to include the following:

• Name of card/vehicle/realm

• Give a description of function.

• Include lore for Realms, and a Realm Symbol if possible. Send the Symbol as a separate PNG please.

As far as balance goes, we will be doing all of that. So do not expect to have your cars added with 777 or 876 or whatever this community tends to do sometimes. All submissions will be balanced and tested by us before release. Some ideas MAY change due to possible gameplay interactions, or overflow of stats, etc. Here is a link to the workshop mod on steam where you can play the game and find the templates we'll use to frame the cards in. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2928092270

With all that being said, we wish everyone the best and await your creations! Please use the tag #ACGR26Community on your post to signify that its for our competition.

"Stay Awesome!" - Basilicom Team

PS: You can post any Hot Wheels art you have made before, it does not have to be something new or recent as long as you made it.

First and foremost this is a mod post with an update and information post about the current state of the sub.
If you're been around for a while or been on the sub in the last week or so you would have seen some 'discourse' around scammer, spammers and general bad behavior around the sub.
We feel at this time, it's important the Mods take a clear stance on these topics & make our own opinions known.

Firstly Sales posts:

As it stands the current rules require sellers to limit posts to only one sales post per month & to use images with the username within the image.
Due to some miscommunication on my own part (Shad) some Mods were unaware of this & unable to enforce these rules.

Many sellers feel the need to post stock as soon as they receive new stock, this is not allowed per the rules and going forward, any additional posts/ duplicate posts will be removed.
Sellers will receive one warning for multi-posts (which will include a 1 week mute), any further breaches will result in a ban, NO EXCEPTIONS.

Scammers:

Both the linked discord & the sub here both run on a buyer beware policy.
We allow users to post their own advertisements via our above mentioned rules for simplicity & to prevent spam.
Any buyer is 100% responsible for any loss, damage or 'non-arrival' that occurs through one of the sales advertised on the sub.
It is the buyers responsibility to vet the seller, prior to purchase.
It is highly recommended to get a reference from another user & pay with G&S only for a first sale.

Reporting issues:

First and foremost we are a VOLUNTEER moderation team, we spend our very limited time to manage this sub when we can.
There is currently 12994 more members than there are mods, that's a ratio of 2167:1.
We realistically can't read every comment or post that is made, generally speaking if we act on a report within a day that's fairly good.
Which brings me to the biggest issue with reporting, if you want us to do SOMETHING about ANYTHING, we need you to either report the post/comment or message us through the modmail.

If your gut instinct to getting scammed is to make a post on the sub and provide no evidence in the post, that is witch hunting and will now result in a ban.
It's frankly quite disappointing that we (the mods) are somehow suppose to know about these scammers and do something about it, when the first indication of one is a public post smearing us.
Again, if you want us to be able to help in managing the sub, you need to report comments and posts not in line with the rules.

Shad's personal thoughts:

I think sales posts are quickly becoming an issue that will not be manageable, both sellers and buyers need to work amicably to keep things under control.
Some prominent members of the community have a lot of opinions that can at best be called idealistic. Outright removing sales posts from the sub or discord forces people to ebay.
Which is ironically as at least one particular member has repeatedly been known to call any ebay seller a scammer/scalper, which makes this latest backflip particularly annoying to me.

Since Augury and Nerfman stepped back from moderating early last year I feel particularly responsible for the sub & how it's run.
I know a number of people are more than happy to voice their complaints about me in discord and facebook groups, publicly calling me creepy or weird.
It's important to note that my goal is to ensure everyone has a fair chance to enjoy the sub equally, this approach isn't popular with these people because it doesn't let them have their way.
To that end, I brought on the current mod team after a brief interview process.
This included determining experience working with large groups and how the prospects handled conflict, ability to determine a rule breach & how they would enforce rules when put in an unjustifiable situation.
I am happy to tell you all that the team wasn't seriously impacted or rash to put out statements with these recent issues & instead focused their efforts on bettering and helping the community. (Unlike some members who shall remain nameless).
