sounds interesting i think i will come and tell my SG about it although i am a terrible costume designer
Maybe costumes is not your area of expertise, perhaps swimwear is 
Good luck to everyone who is attending tonight
Oh my, I shall not be organising another Costume Contest in a hurry. At first I thought I was the only one to be in attendance and started to panic and feel a bit embarassed. Luckily people began to arrive and I felt confident enough to slip into my own swimsuit ready for judging.
It seemed that only Heroes were coming but slowly but surely the villains began to arrive too. By 9:30pm we had plenty of people to line up.
It was then up to Ghost Angel and I (Mercury Star) to choose the winners. Choosing only three heroes and three villains to win is a lot harder than you may think. There were so many good costumes that it was difficult to make our minds up. I really didn't want to be one of those judges that takes ages to decide, but I now understand why they do.
Finally we decided on Redblast, Burnt Beach Babe and Cosmic Comet as the Hero winners and Twiglet, Pollensia and Darkening Lady as villain winners. The winners were moved to another area to have their pictures taken (coming soon). When it came to awarding the inf we discovered that Burnt Beach Babe was a villain 
and not entitled to influence. We then needed a third place winner for heroes, however, Luana 69 who arrived late had a great swimsuit and was happy to accept third place by default. We didnt let Burnt Beach Babe leave empty handed either, we arranged for her to recieve a runner up prize. The end result was: -
Hero Winners
Redblast - 1st place (supergroup = Amazon Stars)
Cosmic Comet - 2nd place (supergroup = Amazon Stars)
Luana 69 - 3rd place (supergroup = Italian Posie)
Villain Winners
Twiglet - 1st place (supergroup = unknown)
Pollensia - 2nd place (supergroup = none)
Darkening Lady - 3rd place (supergroup = Fallen Freelancers)
Runner Up
Burnt Beach Babe - awarded 1/2 mil (supergroup = none)
To all those who attended, thank you very much, you all looked great. I will update the Stars United website's Events page with all the photos. I am currently waiting on the villain winner screenshots.
