July Fan Art Battle - VOTE!

We haven't had an issue with people from around the boards voting yet.

Well, there IS this ONE person who always seems to vote for Shia.....

yep , at least im an artist though .

unlike say going to random places and asking folks.

to give an example I have seen someone posting in the ARs technical forum , city of heroes section trying to get folks whom would be otherwise unintrested in voting to vote on their particular person so that person a would edge out person b
.

Its a FAN art battle that should be able to be appreciated by any FANS of the game.

And how come having an admitted bias is OK just because you're an artist? Bias is bias. I'm not saying its wrong for you to want Shia to win... but then don't say other people who might be voting on just the pieces themselves shouldn't vote just because they don't happen to frequent this forum.

Shia

Right Wassy , thats exactly what I was saying and the example I listed .

Im amazed at your ability to read something and then make up something else .

OK, who got an unfair win then? When did this actually affect the outcome?

Wow, this is great guys. I haven't been following the art forums lately, but this is a great idea. Wish I could have gotten in on it. Maybe season 2!

If I'm still aloud to vote, I'm saying Tacky Tricky. There were a few really good ones that made it hard to decide, but Tricky Tacky just had the most style. Good Stuuf all around!

Yes. My point WAS that you saw people pandering for votes... but did it actually make a difference? I asked that question BECAUSE you never said it actually had a bearing on the vote.

So... you supported my point. There was pandering but not an unfair outcome. So why can't we try to let a lot of people participate? The few bad apples DIDN'T spoil the fun for the bunch!

If there really was a month that had an unfair win because of pandering in other sections, I would have totally agreed with you. I wasn't asking to be mean or accusing, I was asking because you only spoke of the pandering, but not of someone winning who maybe shouldn't have.

Well, that wasn't when I was asking the question... so you're right, it wasn't straightforward.

It was sarcasm, but I was doing so in a playful manner. Admittedly, I could have put a smiley or something in there. So if it was offensive, I apologize.

Don't worry Apro, if there is any confusion about spreading the word among the forums then everyone can refer to the first post where TA advises everyone to make sure and get the word out that anyone on the boards can vote in this contest.

6 hours left to vote; anyone who hasn't contributed and wants to, make sure you get heard.

Leave the drama for yer mama! This is the votin' thread! If you'uns ain't postin' votes, gitcher booties out!

Ohh! Agge! Did you ever see the bust I did for your character in my other thread?

I think the voting may be over...
BUT
If it's not,
I vote for Lousy.
WOW
That peice is so dramatic, very passionate.

Hope I get an extention for double xp and new boards: Lousy_Day.

Lousy_Day - 10 votes (+2 additional late votes)
Projectionist - 9 votes
Juggertha - 1 vote
Toxic_Shia - 6 votes
Aprosaath - 2 votes
The_Foo - 6 votes
Tacky_Tricky - 5 votes
Crestent - 0 votes


Congratulations Lousy_Day!! Close win and all!

Unfortunately i have to report Crestent as being eliminated with the fewest votes this time.

This months theme will be up shortly.

BAH!!! I DEMAND A RECOUNT!!!!

I was even going to make it easy for you and post all the votes!!! :P

But seriously congratz to Lousy_Day for getting immunity for August, and hey I got way farther than I did in last years FArt contest.

Congrats to Crestent for improving his FArting ^.^

And great job, Lousy_Day!

Grats L_D for the win, and condolences to Crestent this round.

And a special thank you to all our participants, for putting out some great works this month! I look forward to next month eagerly. :3

Darn wasn't following the new forums status closely enough and didnt realize they were back up already. The last few times I checked they were down so I may have missed the voting altogether. While I didn't officially state it my vote was for Lousy Day... truly great work man.

That being said I think there is something we may all be overlooking here.
From the OP
"What will get you disqualified this month? ...Any piece not showing a direct transformation from a hero to villain or villain to hero... "
By this measure at least 3 are DQ'q

Lousy Day... Qualified (by showing Scirroco (V) changing to a Hero)
Projectionist... Qualified (Bayani and LJ (H) turning to DevE a villain group)
Juggertha... DQ (chose a human (himself) turning into his main Hero)
Toxic Shia... ???? (Mako is def (V) turning catgirl... Catgirls are not heroes
strictly speaking... they can be but they can be villains too. TA?
Aprosaath... Qualified (Mr. A turning to Evil A)
The FOO... DQ (A young woman turning into a Spines/Regen)
Tacky Tricky... DQ (Stalker (V) turning wolf, the only wolves are also (V) Council)
Crestent ???? (not sure if Mideva is H or V but i'm guessing she is a H
turning V? Crestent? TA?
So three are disqualified and two need clarification/ruling by TA and we have potentially 3-5 contestants to vote for this month. Revote?

Man I hate to be the one to say something about it but no one else was stepping up so ummm... don't kill the messenger??

I will settle this. ORANGE FTW! - Ex Libris

BAHHH as soon as I get a post to finally work (i'm not caring for the new forums so far >.>) I hit update and see it's all been decided already.
Now I wonder if I should've said anything at all :-(

I was gonna give props to The Foo (that is your best work yet imho), Crestent (for showing such improvement and trying some new directions) and Aprosaath (great piece and followed this months H-->V or V-->H theme the closest) nice work guys

P.S. where the heck is the view all pages button?? It sux having to click through individual pages when I could just open it all on one page and scroll down.

Well technically not a hero yet, this was taken from my character Crestent Origin story where Mideva is kidnapped by a cult and basically possessed by demon. So I guess the transformation is from loving wife to a demon possessed women who like to eat souls...
