For the first time since we began these contests last July; I was not able to attend last night's contest due to outages caused by the winter weather here. So I cannot comment on the behavior that may have occurred by the person who ultimately won the grand prize. What I can comment on is our method of choosing winners. Each member of the Legion participating as a judge reviews the contestants and then sends one vote to the host of the contest (usually me) to be recorded. When all votes are in; the contestant with the most votes is awarded the grand prize. If there is a tie; the contest host casts a tie breaking vote. Often times people disagree with our choices; but I believe our method of selecting winners is fair and consistent; and ultimately that is the only thing I am concerned with.
I would suggest in future events; if someone is exhibiting behavior that is detracting from the contest and you see no action being taken; simply send a tell to the contest host and ask if they have noticed the behavior. While I try to monitor all channels during the contests; it can be difficult to catch everything. I will not Monday Morning quarterback last night's event but instead would like to thank all of you who participated and would like to publicly thank the members of The American Legion that come out twice a week; every week; to judge these contests despite the often times harsh and unfair criticism that is heaped upon them.
That being said...this thread is meant to be a fun thread for themes and winners of contests...so let's get back to it. The next contest is this Thursday at 10 PM EST and the next themed contest is next Tuesday at 10 PM EST. The contest will be Sports Themed. -
Absence of Color themed contest in less than an hour!

Quote:As mentioned in the original post; some months will have themes for the contests. However we have decided the first few will not to help get the ball rolling on the contest. Keep your eyes open for future months however; there will be themes.Originally Posted by Ramification TM
Bubba, there's no reason to make this complicated. If they want a theme that's cool and all. But it sort of defeats the purpose of taking off the previous rules. This way it's open to everyone without exception. Just hate to see people being excluded. -

Unfortunately that happens...I have seen many costumes get "borrowed" from one player to another over the years. I would think as an individual that a person would want to come up with their own unique look but apparently some prefer to copy the designs of others. Of course we also have no record of what every person's costume looks like or who came up with what look first. So we judge the costumes that show up and try to pick the best ones. And that is a good costume...worthy of recognition. So well done Electra!

If you are seeking feedback for the arc you submitted and would like to request it privately you are welcome to do so.Originally Posted by Mad_Machinest
Can we get some feedback (here) on these? It'd be much appreciated.

We have begun running these arcs to choose this month's winner and so far I am hearing nothing but positives from the players about the arcs. Should make choosing a winner difficult. I have personally run a couple of them so far and if that is any indication of the quality of the entrants then it will indeed be a very difficult choice. I encourage the rest of you out there that are looking for something to do to give some of these arcs a try...there are some very well written mission arcs in the competition. Should be fun.
