Vote for the Comic Contest Entries!

Post by ric »

The FINAL deadline has FINALLY come.

SO. Without further ado, I give you the entries for the first ToO Comic/Caption Contest! \:D/


#1 (entries are number by date of receipt)
Image
#2
Image
#3
Image
#4
Image
#5
Image
#6
Image
#7
Image
#8
Image

Now, on to the voting.

1. As stated before, you get to vote by way of rating-ballot-thingy. \:D/ You simply fill out the ballot, found in the template below, and send it in to me (or Marvin, if you like living life on the edge (I have no idea what that means...)).

2. You may not vote for your own entry (we will be checking 8-) ) but please vote for all of the other entries, not just one or two!

3. There will be four winners, one for Humor, one for Artistry, one for Originality, and one for an average of all three categories.

4. Try to keep your entries objective. (E.g., don't do 10 all across the board, because then we won't have any winners, just a whole bunch of tens :P )

5. If there happens to be one winner in two categories, which is entirely possible, we will simply give that person the category in which he scored the highest, and the lower category will be given to the second place scorer in that category. (I know it doesn't sound entirely fair, but this is the only way we could keep it at 4 winners.)

6. Please don't tell anyone whose entry is whose.

7. If you have any questions (I'm sure I've left something out once again) just ask me in this thread.


Here is the template for the ballot thingy:

Code: Select all

Artistry: [1-10]
Humor: [1-10]
Originality: [1-10]
In case I was unclear, you need to send in one of the above ballots for each of the entries except your own.

Votes will be received through the 30th.[/size][/color]

All the entries are cool. 8-) Though, I wish more people had drawn stuff.. :( I felt, that's what this whole contest was about. I mean, there are a lot of talented members on here that can draw. :yes:

But aside from that, good job everyone. =D>

Really? With the title “Caption Contest” it seemed clear to me that the object was creating clever captions, not the medium of the image the caption was about.

… by stating facts? :-s
The definition of ‘caption’ is “description of an accompanying illustration” it has no connection to what the illustration is or how it was done.

Actually, though, we did promote this more as a comic contest \:D/
