Agatha Des'mortis is not pictured. Not sure what happened with your screenshot, but it didn't make it If you would like to post a pic of the costume you were wearing at the CC, please feel free to. My sincerest apologies. -
Opps I forgot a name in the last one! Hawk-Wing is the guy in the top middle, the Grand Prize Winner! So sorry. -
I am sorry that you did not agree with the winner of the CC. I am aware that a few people didn't. We cast our votes secretly, and the person with the most votes wins. Legion ( or host) only votes to break a tie. That's how we have done these for over a year and a half. Sometimes everyone agrees with the winner, sometimes they don't. It happens.
As far as the other question goes, we have had a rule in place for much longer than we have been doing the CC's, at minimum of 4 years (cause that's how long I've been in the group) At our events (excluding sg and coalition events) our members are not allowed to participate. Even on an alt.
If one of our members needs influence, there are much simpler ways of giving it to them.
If they want recognition for a great costume, we hold sg only CC's . For the very reason we do not allow them to compete in the weekly CCs.
We run a fair contest the best way we know how. There isn't debate over the contestants between all or even a select few of the members and its not decided by just one particular person's opinion. On large turnout nights, especially when (like last night) there are a ton of great costumes, the votes tend to be spread out more. So some nights, one vote can make a difference.
I am sorry that you or anyone else was not happy with the results. To that I can only say,better luck next week. If you choose not to participate any further, I am sorry that you have come to that conclusion. -
Yes, they were great! Next Tuesday's Theme is Mrs. Claus. Can't wait to see some great costumes! Remember prizes are doubled!

Because I think it needs to be said again :-)
From the feedback thread:
Quote:as a note I do not mean unisex as "the exact same thing" but very similar pieces appropriately adjusted for each model.<snip>
I think the idea of either selling them as two different sets such as Western Barfly and Gunslinger as was suggested earlier was BRILLIANT. They could be packaged together as one set and a slightly higher cost or sold individually on different weeks. Personally I think more variety benefits us all. Paragon Studios sells more items, we get more stuff. Do be fair about it. Give men specialized costumes too, ie Bartender, Prince, King. Give us a more unisex (not necessarily identical, but equal) option for everyone and then more iconic/historic ones for males and females.

Zwil,
Where as I appreciate that the message has been passed along to the art team. I want to make sure the message is heard. We are not saying we don't want special, "unique" or even "sexy" pieces, what we are saying is we want OPTIONS. Give us balance, the quote before illustrates how, and you could release them as two separate packs. I want both, and am willing to pay for both, if the quality is good ( and it usually is). I am pretty sure the men would like some "unique" pieces as well, the prince theme would give an opportunity for a long tunic, puffy sleeves, etc. I look forward to seeing this moving forward. I am super excited for the idea of a space themed pack.
edit
I would love to use the gunslinger2 belt with the steampunk jackets, but that's just a wish -
This Tuesday CC's theme is Steampunk!
