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.

It looks like there aren't any rules against entering in multiple categories or servers. Is that the case?

You may only enter once per account or global name. This means that you will only be able to enter on one server and in one category. Please choose your best character and costume and sign up!

The reason we cannot accept multiple sign ups per account is because at the finals, you would not be able to be logged in on multiple characters at the same time.

Thank you for your question and we at the PERC look forward to seeing you compete!

That video hurts my soul. To further up the ante, if pinnacle pulls this one off I will get the Arachnos symbol as a tattoo. Can you guys prove once and for all Devs love villains?

Also, as a reminder to all the drunks out there:

Our very own Keyblade won Mr Paragon!

It'll be damn good for a drunk to claim that name again.

Okay, I entered in my Brute, Lady Death Knight to represent female villains. I found it funny that I was the only one standing there for a while as 3 judges looked at my toon. I'm guessing there must have been someone else that was judged earlier... I hope.. otherwise 3 judges were just oogling my toon for 10 minutes imagining her naked or something

The judges were pretty flexible. Which was good, because I wouldn't have been able to get in otherwise.

We would like to thank everyone that participated in the Mr. and Ms. Paragon City/Rogue Isles Costume Contest. We would like to congratulate the Pinnacle winners.

Mr. Paragon City Pinnacle: Bel Boy
Runner Up: Power Paladin

Ms. Paragon City Pinnacle: Luna Dark
Runner Up: Kat Atomic

Mr. Rogue Isles Pinnacle: Speedo Demon
Runner Up: Yaphet Tariq

Ms. Rogue Isles Pinnacle: Lady Death Knight
Runner Up: Lady Tsukikage

Each winner will receive a Gold Title for 6 months and 1 costume code on their choosing. The finals will be held on the Test Server, Friday the 8th of January at 9 PM Eastern, 6 PM Pacific.

The Finals portion of Mr and Ms Paragon City/Rogue Isles has a series of Question and Answers to be completed. Either Madame Pistacio or Ice Knight will be in contact with each winner with their information for the Finalist website.

Specific Rules for the finals.

1. Finalists must be present to win. If a finalist is not then they will be disqualified.

2. Finalists must have their questions answered and all finalist information completed by the 3rd of January before 11:59 PM Pacific. If a Finalist does not have this completed, P.E.R.C. will award the Runner Up from that category the spot in the finals.

3. If a finalist notifies P.E.R.C. that they can not attend the Finals, P.E.R.C. will allow the Runner Up to enter the finals.

4. In the event we have to award the Runner Up a spot in the finals, they will be given 72 hours after the deadline to complete the finalist information. If they do not, then that server will not be represented in that category.




On a side note, grats to all the winners!

Personally, I would love to see Pinnacle claim Mr Paragon City again!

Any questions, please let me know.

See all our server winners at the finals.

Wow, I actually won something? Coooool.

So, does that mean that the female villain judging is 11:15pm EST - 12:00 am EST? I was entering this contest thinking that was the time for it on test as well. However, if EVERYONE is getting judged the same time at 9pm EST I may have a problem there. Please advise on the time if it's everyone at once or not.

  • 11:15pm EST - 12:00 am EST -- Female Villains
Just in case... will these times apply for the test server finals as well? If it is 11:15 for the female villains I can attend. Hawke said it was at 9:00 but wasn't sure if that meant when it starts... or if that EVERYONE has to show at 9:00. If we all have to show at 9:00 then I will have to withdraw from the contest and let the runner up represent the female villains of Pinnacle.
