The Worst Accent Contest — Rules
Read this before you enter. It's short.
The point of the game
You read a line in your worst attempt at an accent, or as a silly character. Everyone votes for funniest — never for "most accurate." Nothing here scores how close you got to a real accent, so a real accent is never the target.
Who can play
- You must be 18 or older to enter or vote. We ask once; we keep only "18+: yes/no" and how you told us, never your date of birth.
- You need a confirmed email address on your Accentle account.
- One live entry per contest, per person — including across every device linked to your account.
How a week works
- Each week has one prompt. Record once, preview it, submit it.
- Every entry is checked automatically before anyone else can hear it — see what's not OK for what that catches and what it can't.
- Voting stays open until the contest closes. You get a limited number of votes per contest, and you can take a vote back any time before close.
- When it closes, entries are ranked by vote count only — no randomness, no payment advantage, ever. Ties share the place.
- If a week closes with very few approved entries, we show "Winners" without exact counts, so a thin week doesn't look padded.
What it costs
Entering is not free by default — one Entry costs $1.99, with a Showtime tier for a bigger, animated spot. Your account may carry a free-entry perk or an active pass that covers it instead; the app always tells you which applies before it charges you anything.
Deleting your entry, deleting your account
You can delete your own entry at any time before the contest closes. Deleting your Accentle account removes every recording, vote, and report tied to you from the contest system too — including if that removal has to wait for a service to come back online, it is never dropped.
Refunds
- If your entry is rejected by the automatic check, or you cancel a Crew Contest before anyone has entered it, your money or credit comes back automatically.
- For anything else, you can request a refund through Stripe (web purchases) or through Apple/Google (app purchases), same as any other Accentle purchase.
- If we ever discontinue the contest while you hold a prepaid Year, the unused months are refunded pro-rata.
Automatic moderation — read this part
There is no human reviewer standing between your entry and the public list. Every entry is checked by two independent automatic systems before it can be seen or heard by anyone else, and reports are acted on automatically too. See what's not OK for exactly what that does and does not catch, and what to do if you see something it missed.
