Contest Rules

Note: Judges for individual server events will not be representatives of that server.
  • Any Hero or Villain may enter.
  • No member of PERC may enter.
  • The winners of the finals will be representatives of their respective games and should personify that game.
  • Huge body type heroes/villains will be determined to be male. Monster heroes/villains will be determined male or female by body type, and/or name and biography if necessary.
  • Judging for the contest will be scored for costume and creativity. The final contests will be based both on costume design and on a short series of interview questions. Interview answers will be judged in the finals only. Costume scores will be formulated the same way in both individual server contests and finals.
  • Judges have the right in the event of a tie to refer to character biographies and how they apply to the character concept.
  • Interview answers will be judged in the finals only. Interview questions will be available to answer online after the last server competition judging is complete. A link to that site will be made available to our finalists at that time. If you do not complete the questions you will not be allowed to participate in the finals.
  • Character screenshots of the finalists must also be submitted by January 1st, 2010 by 12:00am (midnight) EST. This is to ensure that in the unlikely event that one of the judges is unable to make it to the finals judging, the finals will still continue as scheduled.

I agree, this seems kind of ridiculous that Triumph is the only server to be on a day that isn't the weekend. We're a small server to start with, now on a day where most have to work in the morning? Kind of a crap move...


I loves me some Kay Parfait! <3

Hi

I just wanted to let you all know I have seen this and will work out a resolution tomorrow that should benefit the most people here on Triumph.

We could always forego the contest and declare me the winner in all four categories.

Going Rogue with Karl and Sarah....hmmmm

Wow what a time to do this when people go on family vacations for Christmas. The Wife and I will not make it because we will be out of town for Christmas visiting family.

In Laws do not have a system that can run COX. Good luck.

That's funny Niv because Karl mentioned dressing up like a holiday catgurl for no reason what so ever he quote: "Just want's to feel pretty." Don't you Karl?

Pshhh...no need to "feel" pretty when I already know I am pretty!

Really wanted to thank PERC for changing the date. I know its not great for everyone, but it showed a lot of guts for them to see there was something a little unfair and to go back and fix it. I commend PERC for stepping up and doing the right thing. I will totally be there.

Now back to lurking

Any idea on specific judging criteria Ice Knight? Like what the judges will and won't be looking for?


 

Posted

I know they won't be looking for any other contestants once they get a good look at me!

After all, it's hard to look at anyone else after you gouge your eyes out with the nearest handy twig.

There isn't a codpiece big enough to make you attractive Karl!

Costumes are judged on creativity, originality, and overall look (aka the style and execution of the costume).

I hope PERC is planning on posting pics of all the winners in all the threads so that we can size up the competition.
