@Nindznyaa
Ohhhh, splendid! Your costume has been registered and will be judged on contest day.
I've decided to tweak the no shield/equipment rule a bit. I will allow you guys to use full inspect if you feel that your costume stands out more with weapons or a shield. BUT, those will still not be considered as part of the costume. These will just be used for presentation, but don't worry, I'm going to make the judging criteria to not include weapons and shields as part of the costume. So for those of you not using any of these, you won't be penalized for omitting your weapons and shield.

So,

@Lilweazy: Of course he can!
@Isekuube: Why would I host a contest somewhere where only about 10 people at a time can show up?
Tue, 04/17/2012 - 14:14
#107
YES! :P
It could controll the flow of people, someone could call NEXT! But, then again, people would have nothing to do with teh contest- ok nevermind :P

@Isekuube: Sounds aggravating and time consuming... so no.
@Kezzang: Of course! You can enter as many categories as you wish, but you must have different costumes for each category.
SPECIAL MESSAGE: Guys... I'm sorry... but I may have to cancel the contest. I used up all the CE I had as prize money to punch, and got nothing. It's going to take me a while to recover the money...

...NOT! I did spend some of the CE I saved up for the contest (7k CE to be exact) and got lucky enough to get ASI VH on a Sealed Sword. Sold that sucka for 30k CE and got enough CE for the prizes. Talk about luck. Well, now that I got the CE for prizes, now all I can do is increase the prizes, which I may do. ;)

conflicting rules?
Rose:
"For this category, you don't need to use a full set. You can use a Chapeau and use it with another armor or take a Tabard and use it with a different helm. Of course, you may use full sets as well."
"-You can only use full Rose sets for the Rose category."
might wanna clarify this.
Tue, 04/17/2012 - 18:58
#116
@Aquillion
All it is, is that you can only use the full Rose sets on the Rose category, not on Open. This was done because some people felt that it was unfair to have a Open category that excluded the Rose sets. So, I only permitted ONE piece for these sets on Open, whereas the Rose categories can have the full set. Sounds redundant, I know, but I can't satisfy everyone's wants.

SPECIAL UPDATE!!!
Several things I'm going to throw out; I already have the prize money, everybody is anxious about the event (even I), and I got finals to study for on the weekend of the original date for the event. SO... THE CONTEST HAS BEEN MOVED TO APRIL 28!!! This should work out for pretty much everyone, because we all want this event to get here! So, I'm doing us all a favor! So finish up on your costumes, submit your entries if you plan to submit photo entries, etc. etc. LET'S DO THIS!!
The few days before the event (Thursday, Friday, and early Saturday), I will be sending out guild invites, as this event will take place on a guild. So if your name is NOT on the receptions list and you wish to either participate or spectate, INFORM ME NOW!!! We are almost close to C-Day, so let's make them count!
Prizes will stay as is. 17.5k CE is already a lot to give away, so I won't be giving out any more. Besides, more peeps are in it for the fun of it, not for the CE.

@blueknighter
Surely it might be a wise idea to edit the description of the rose category in your first post since it is completely misleading as to what is acceptable (refer to the first quote in my previous post or your initial post) If you can only use a full rose set why would the description state the opposite. Just a thought so people are not disappointed.
Wed, 04/18/2012 - 07:45
#119
@Aquillion
After your first post, I changed the description to these rules. And I've changed them yet again, after your second post. I've done everything possible to make these rules as clear as glass, but if I still can't get them to sound right, then oh well. I can't please everyone, like I said. Not like it matters, no one has had a problem with these rules. :3

So do I expect a guild invitation on the 28th? To then go to the Partay

So where is this going to be held? The Guild Hall? Or an empty Haven

@Vagueabond: The majority of the people entering are just in it for the fun. Welcome aboard the fun-vee (Iron Man 2 reference) .
@Chickenuggetz: Around the 27-28th of this month, I'll be sending the guild invites. Its on contest day when you are to accept these (or even when you get them, up to you). But yes, accept them and I'll signal players when to go to the guild hall.
@Isekuube: In a guild hall.

Belated response
@Blueknighter: "I personally believe that shields and weapons are a unfair way to determine a winner. As it is, most of the contestants here are primarily focused on accessorizing their costumes, not creating a shield nor equipping weapons that match the outfit. So for those who spent more attention on accessorizing, it would be unfair for them to lose because of something irrelevant."
I agree, which is why I suggest that there be a *separate category* next time you run this (if you do) where weapon/shield combos will be considered. :) Just a thought.

@Derpules
I probably won't be holding another contest for a long time. This one is costing me a fortune, a fortune that I could be using on myself. Plus, I'm kinda on the verge of quitting, since there ain't much left for me here. Still unsure.
Guys, I need your opinions on the place for the contest. Would you rather it be in a Guild Hall or open to all and it be located in a Haven. Please respond, as contest day is almost here.
Thu, 04/19/2012 - 16:47
#128
Hmmmmm...
I would honestly prefer the public, as I feel there are there are a few ways to avoid getting too much of a crowd. Simply find a low populated Haven, send PM everyone the number, and have it held in the arcade. The reason I state the arcade is because ever since the missions, you don't see many people there.
As for the other option, I'm sure I can arrange something about momentarily swapping guilds, but I'm wary of guild activity, as it hasn't bee entirely active; and I still would like to keep ties in case it does. I'm also an officer on the guild.

Contest
Haven would be nice because then I wouldn't have to leave my guild... but I am fairly sure it would be disorganized that way.. I think it should be a guild deal.

Tough choice, this one is.
Pros and Cons
Guild:
Pros: Guaranteed, No intruders will enter.
Cons: Limited amount of people can enter; some unwilling to leave their guild for contest.
Haven:
Pros: More publicity; more spectators; no one has to leave their guild.
Cons: High chance of attracting the wrong attention; high likeliness of the event falling apart.
Tough choice this one is. Decision I cannot make.

Blueknighter, I appreciate
Blueknighter, I appreciate the time and effort you're putting into this! I believe, as long as it's semi-secret, the haven should be fine.
I have a question regarding judging: Does height and/or eyes affect your "costume"? What I mean is, Are your new eyes and height (if you changed it) part of your costume? I ask because my main costume has become 10x better with the new changes. Oh, and I'm almost done with it ;) The final accessory shall be bought soon enough.

Ahhh.....Pepsi!
@Pokenuevo: Na, I won't count the new eye and height modifications as part of your costume. I don't think most participants will have those as is, so they won't count against you. As for your costume, great! Hope it blows my mind! :D
@Buildlord: Sounds good! :)

@Dishly: Ahh, sorry about that. I decided to move the event, because at this point, all the participants were practically ready and we were all anxious for the event to get here. Sorry I ruined your plans of entering. But if I ever host another contest (not 100% if i ever will again), your new costume could be a entry.
@Jmsa, Devil-Xtreme: I apologize for the inconveniences. I know you two were very excited about participating, but it didn't work out for both of ya. I'll judge your entries today. You'll receive feedback either today or tomorrow.
@Devil: That's just one costume. I'll enter it on Open.
