3rd Annual Mr. and Ms. Paragon City/Rogue Isles Costume Contest

Only male I'm afraid!

This is tomorrow everyone! Hope to see you there!!!!

I'm too excited to sleep...

This was a lot of fun just scoping out everyones toons, even if i don't get near winning. Events like this and the character auction previously have been a great way of getting many people on the server together and reminding me how cool a crowd we have. I was so busy playing up to the crowd i almost missed actually entering, and lost most of my costume to the crowd too .

It was great to see lots of representation from our server, even that one dude running around in his underwear and screaming about his personal medical conditions. Good luck to all who entered!

Thank you too the Players of this server it was a really great event.

I am going to speak for the judges and say it truly was a pleasure doing this event.

oh and results will be posted later this week.

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 Victory Server winners.

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.

If anyone has any questions please post them here or send a PM to Ice Knight or Madame Pistacio

Gratz to the winners.

Wewt

Come on Victory bring home the overall titles.

I'll field this one.

The short answer is walk-ins.

The long answer is:
Just because a person preregistered does not necesarily mean they had the best costume for their catagory according to the judges.

Walk-ins ******* suck.

I think that though we may be disappointed that we may not win, it's still best to congratulate those who beat us out. I hope they represent Victory well in the finals.

Perhaps for next year the judges could be clear on how eligibility works concerning registry? I'll be honest, my entry was actually based upon perceived competition.

Is there any way we could photos of the servers winners posted?

Hi

We have allowed walkins the past 2 years. We do this specifically due to the fact that such a small percentage of players actually read the forums. The first year we ran this contest we did not allow walkins. The amount of venom that caused made us reconsider. Mind you that year we had a link on the updater so every player saw the information.

As for walkins winning. It would not be fair for us to allow walkins to compete but eliminate them in favor of pre registered individuals even if we felt that their costume was better. If you pre registered you were judged first. This year we had more walkins then pre registered competitors. 48 walkins to 16 pre registered. A 3 to 1 ratio. Last year 59 Registered and 31 walked in.

While I prefer pre registered competitors, walkins allow for everyone that wants to compete, to compete. As for screenshots, we should have them posted soon.

Sorry all who registered, I was a walk in(I'm Psyckotic btw >.>) I didn't really hear about the contest until my friend, who was a PERC rep, was spamming the messages in the Request channel. I'm kinda hoping that Serenity Cow isn't able to make it... I mean, I lost to a cow? That must be one helluva cow. :P

I don't mind about the walk-ins, I was just glad I didn't have to wait forever to be judged. I wouldn't have done it if I was a walk-in... I'm not good on waiting a long time when I have limited game time, heh.

Of course, I do wish I had won. Sunset Samurai has a frickin' awesome costume and I've had a lot of compliments on it in the past, hence my entering him. But I know how judging things goes. Congrats to all the winners!

**complain complain complain**
Grats to the winners, i would like to see a posting of the winning costumes if that is possible.

I'm not mad at the walkins, I was just mildly confused on that with the rules. To tell the truth had I known that I would have sent tells to a few on other servers to represent theirs. Oh well, I hope Victory brings home the title.

Are all servers this whiny?

Anyway, grats to all the winners, I really loved seeing all the costumes out running around, and that giant mess of pushup was really funny.

most severs are more whiny then us, or so i am told :P
