Worst. Event. Ever.

What a waste of time your little fashion show was... one of the winners actually had a spiked mohawk on a wolver cap. This accessory obviously doesn't fit considering it floats in mid air above the helmet. That alone should show you what little the opinions of the judges mean. The entire thing should have taken 20 minutes, instead it lasted over 2 hours. This was mainly because they didn't want to let their friends down so they ended each contest in a 'tie'. Several of the winners were those who donated prizes. And btw, I didn't even stand in the line to join, yet got an invite to participate anyway, so i thought i would see what a train wreck looks like. I was not disapointed.

I think this was a very creative event, things like these are what make the SK community great, awesome to see people try new ideas to make more fun for everyone.

My Comments...

It was definitely NOT the worst event ever and in comparison to what I saw of the first one, this was infinitely better. I have to give props to Tersakoff for trying to run a whole event alone, especially when he knew he was gonna get flamed by sore losers- I think we all know who I mean- but I guess you really can't run an event without a little dissension.
The costumes were great and the winners were very deserving. The only costume that was a little iffy was the aforementioned wolver cap with a spike mohawk, however it's not my decision to decide who wins is it :P.
The prizes weren't the most stellar things ever, but again, one person can't donate a treasure trove and I believe the best of the donated things went to the first place winners. I was surprised, as a second place winner myself, to get as much as I did.
The one moment that the event began to crumble was the very end when the second judge, Ters's girlfriend, left and Ters was left to be indecisive alone. That was bad, but we could've done without all the flaming that went on then.

All in all, pretty standard for an event and I think that with more staff it could've gone brilliantly.

(*Kor: You forgot to add me as 2nd place in the Beautiful category, but if you're just counting the tie as first and second that's fine then :3)

Juances

We clearly have a different fashion sense. Most of them arent really unique or look simply over-accesorized.

@Juances

Personally, I'm not saying I liked them all or that I'd wear any of them, but out of the selection I think they were the best. I took pictures of the lines (or at least most of them) so I think I may post those too...

*Edit: Here's the lines. Only one I don't have is cute and that's because I had a splitting headache at the beginning of this and failed to cap a good screen shot D: oh well...

The show imo was just fine and it was fun! And hats off to them for trying to do something fun for others! One note though I did not win 2nd place in the "cute" category Pinkblobkirby did. :) Pic here http://tinypic.com/r/rcvujb/5

Congrats to the winners. The first event had a lot of problems, but it's good to hear they improved on this one. At the end of the day, more events are always good.

I was impressed . . .

. . . with just the artistic beauty of the design of SK's gear in general. Some of those color combinations were gorgeous. I especially liked Vexton's and Dukeplatypus's looks.

I like how I now have an epithet :D
@Greatscot The points of the Spike Mohawk on Wolver were that 1) I didnt want it to do without an acessory (its hard to find something that goes wolver and still makes it look decent) and 2) the main point of the armor was the Radiant Silvermail, which i put the fancy rare stuff on. I didnt make any of my costumes for the contest, at the very most I removed the weapons and changed the shield. I made a Radiant Silvermail, and I wanted a helm that looked decent. Lo and behold I found that wolver cap is pretty close to perfect and almost no one uses it, with the added bonus of making me immune to random friend requests because of its simplicity :P Frankly, I was kinda surprised that I won too. I was hoping to maybe get an honorable mention so I could compete in the General contest with my much more expensive, flashier costume. Now if you truly have a problem with my taste being simple and elegant, I would gladly grant you half of my winnings because I feel sorry for hurting your feelings. If you dont want my pity, then you can be free to suck it up and move on, my treat.

and to everyone who actually likes it, thank you for your kind words.

Thanks for the event!

I think the main thing that bugged me about the event was the sore losers who kept b*tching about the judges "poor" choices, but whatever, these sort of events will always have some sort of negative vibe. People seem to forget that the whole point of the contest was to have fun, and if you can't handle that, suck it up and leave; don't run it for the others.

But anyways, thanks for awarding me with 1st for General and 2nd Grand Prize. :D

I never know when you guys are doing these contest things. IMO, they should be done with pics over the forums, to make timezones work.

@Duke: +1 for very well said. I think I actually retract my earlier statement about it being iffy. Props to duke for being brave enough to try.
@Fehzor: Well, Ters did mention hosting another during the summer which I'm really looking forward to participating in. I mean, these can only get better from here, so I don't think you missed out in any way :3

If this DOES happen again, I ask of one thing...
Please don't drag it out to the point where it takes 2+ hours. Seriously, I would have done about 8 FSC runs with guildies if I knew how long that would have taken. I would have been fine with an hour of fun and productive judging and competition, but that was way too boring and dragged out. I like the idea, just hate the way it was worked.
Also, wolver caps with spike mohawks are not bad ass, no matter who you are.

I honestly lost track of everything. I think there should have been more judges to prevent tie breakers. well at least an odd number of judges anyways. So maybe a third judge would have been nice. When i only saw 2 i thought even number = a tie. it was faster then the first one i remember how confusing it was it took almost an hour to get everyone into that guild hall I think I woke up at 4AM and we weren't end till 11AM or 1PM for the first one. But between this one and the first one i did like the first one better. More judges cuz some of the costumes were making ppl on our mumble go.... wut how did... kk just scream into a pillow and keep your mouth shut before you vomit...

It was fun but not worth switching to the shorter shift for work. *back to studying*

Sorry, the whole Guild Hall

Sorry, the whole Guild Hall was pretty spammy in the chat so I didn't see when he announced a "new" 2nd place person. My bad.

Could you send me a pic like the rest of your costume, I need one for the thread. Thanks.

Grats to the winners. Though tbh the first batch winners were better IMO. :p

Hold a contest that Guild Masters can enter, obviously we cannot leave our guilds for to enter these mundane events, however mundane is very fun at times, think the events through next time, accommodate all and the costumes will be much better ^_^
