A talent hunt in MJX Events has a name, a public web address (`/s/your-show`) and one or more seasons. Each season has its own registration form, rounds and winner.

### Terms

Each talent hunt has its own ready-made Contestant Terms, Judges' Terms and Privacy Notice. Fill in **Organiser / owner (legal name)**, **City for disputes** and, if you like, **Your own extra rules (optional)**, then [[Save terms]]. See [Sponsors and terms](talent-hunt/sponsors-and-terms).

### Judges, Share and Winner

- **Judges** — see [Shortlist, judges and rounds](talent-hunt/shortlist-judges-and-rounds).
- **Share** — see [Registrations](talent-hunt/registrations).
- **Winner** — the winner is chosen on the Rounds page. Here you can add their photo, a line about them, or type the winner of a season run before MJX Events, and tick **Show this winner on the registration page**.

## The public page

Your page at `/s/your-show` shows the registration form with **Register now — it takes 2 minutes**, your sponsors beside it (a "Your brand here" tile until you add one), **Past winners**, questions and answers, and a small MJX Events card. It never shows a list of contestants.

## Questions people ask

### Can two seasons take entries at once?

No. "Only one season takes entries at a time; opening this one closes the others."

### Can I change the web address later?

Yes, but "Changing it breaks links already shared."

### Can a season be only for singers?

Yes. Under **Talents on the registration form**, tick just the talents you want. Contestants see only those.
