Hah, round two had some good ones in it too!

Making a man shaped like a firecracker... very cute.

And the Beijing Dragon lady? Very cool, kinda scary. Great use of the Omega parts!

My only problem with it is it looks nothing like a dragon to me. And that third place... I have to wonder if the judges were drunk by the second contest.

Not sure about the first contest but the second had plenty of dragons as semifinalists, For originality Firecracker Man got bonus kudos and it fit the theme.

I was going for a more traditional Chinese parade dragon look

Indeed, I'm familiar with Chinese dragons, parade and otherwise. If I squint and pretend I can kinda see it around the eyes. Maybe several shots of Scotch would help.

For everyone who was in the semi-finals, were we suppossed too get some kind of code via e-mail?

I'm only asking because I think that it was, Beastyle who was asking for all of the semi-finalists e-mails & time zones.

Beastyle did asked for my email and I gave that to him. But yea, I haven't heard anything yet, maybe they're still busy with the weekend and the Tuesday patch day? No biggie, I'm patient and I'm already paid for VIP for a few more months anyway.

(This is Firecracker Man, btw)

Any news on when the prize codes will be going out?

Give them a month or so. The developers can't create the codes, probably because they are processed by the NCsoft account management instead of the game itself. So they have to request all the codes from PlayNC, which can take some time.

I don't have an issue with waiting.

Just a suggestion for the next one though If tenjoy is correct maybe request the codes from NCsoft account management when you announce the contest so you will get them around the contest time. from previous contests you already know the amount of prizes you award at the event.

That being said the next contest sounds like fun!
