This Masquerade is rated PG-13. Please, NO nudity. Remember: No Costume is NO COSTUME.

The Masquerade Producer has full authority to eliminate anyone from the competition on the basis of taste, danger to the audience or contestants, violation of the above rules, or any other reason deemed sufficient. We've never had to eliminate anyone yet, but this protects you and the sponsors of this event from real 'LOONS'. There will be NO appeal.
