and Eugena evolved so much she HAS to get it. she is also the sweetest girl on set

Put the peanut in the peanut hole!

I hope Eugena wins too.

If Melrose wins, I will have to regulate and run after her and just chop her into pieces!

And Caridee is just.. too way over the top.

CARIDEEE WON!!!!! Wooot wooooot! Smellrose got pawnnned.

And LOL at Tyra saying Eugena doesnt want it, and Eugey is in the top 3 >.>

Smell rose is way too old to be a model anyway. Michelle was my favourite from day 1... but in this show, its more about "wanting it" than talent, which is totally contradictory.

I LOVE Daria. Canadian Pride !! But totally check out Du Juan, shes climbing the ranks... AND she's asian!!

P.S If the positions are foreshadowing anything, Jaden is in the highest position to win! Of course, thats only in reference to cycle 7, lol.

I'm so disappointed that Eugena didn't take the title, she totally deserved it, however, I am glad that Smellrose lost. lol Congrats to Caridee though! *points and laughs at Melrose* lol

Anyways, I got a couple of submissions already! I haven't looked at any of the screens yet since I want to see everyones all at once then start ranking them together. Hope you guys did a good job....lol

Well, Michelle was my fav all along (high fashion features + talent), but Eugena was insanely inconsistent. She only had good shots the last few weeks >.<

Ok, I just have to post this, its a picture that one of the applicants did just for fun wanting to participate, and I have to say it was flawless in my opinion...



I totally got Nightfall from this, Grace also explained that this was the FIRST scenes you actually see when starting Nightfall (the statue/sun, I tested it myself and surely enough after creating an Elonian character and logging in, this is the first thing you see in the intro cutscenes). I love the pose, the face angle actually reminded me of the Covergirl shots for last nights finale of ANTM where they had to look to the side to show off pouty lips for the lip gloss product.

I loved this picture, and it saddens me that we didn't take Grace in! lol But I did post this to give our current contestants some more inspiration, (although you cant use cutscenes, you can definitely pull inspiration from them!) plus it was an Elonian character which we didn't have...so I thought why not! Excellent job Grace!

I definitely encourage people who didn't make it into the competition to give our contestants a run for their money lol

I realize that some of the people who didn't make it, do have higher scores than some of the people who did, the reason for that could be anything. Like I said, we didn't just look at the application, there were various amounts of outside factors that could've effected the outcome. Plus, there's three judges with three different opinions. lol
There you go! Hope that helps.

nope doesnt help much......reason, "uhm, I dont like <fill in class>", "I didnt feel like reading this entrants ap", "we already HAVE 2 monks!".....nope this doesnt explain why people with higher scores didnt make it (and I am not one of them, mind you).....though again, I dont think we were told that it would be scored as such and that the essays counted towards your app (geez, I wasnt an english major in college!). Some reasons would be nice, not just 'it could have been anything'.........................

Some reasons would be nice, not just 'it could have been anything'......................... I'm sorry that you feel that way, but I've come to realize that I can't please everyone. I'm done dealing with the level of cattiness that is coming from losing applicants. And I certainly did not appreciate your comments... I can honestly say there wasn't any favoring of one profession over the other, and we read every application.

Here are some popular reasons why anyone was passed up...

1. You gave a generic response in your application.
2. You displayed a picture that did not showcase your face. (Why would you send an application with screenshots of your back? "As a model, your face is your canvas" - Jay Manuel.)
3. You made rude/obscene/suggestive comments/screenshots in your applications.
4. You didn't score at least a 15 on your application.

Those were the top four reasons why any one person was eliminated in the preliminaries.

thanks for the response!
that was more of what I was looking for, however, it still doesnt answer how someone with say 20 points didnt get picked while someone with 19 did.......why would they have gotten 20 points if they didnt have a good pic?
The essay does answer part of this, but I wouldnt have scored an applicant with rude messages at all.....to me they just wouldnt/shouldnt be taken as a serious applicant.

and the reason I am trying to get the reasons is NOT because I am upset that my dumb toon didnt make it, its more to find out what the criteria was for who got picked---------------for future reference (like in case you actually do this again, people will know that you should do x, y and z and not a, b or c....ok??????)
sorry that you felt I was being bitchy about this, but I really do want to help people understand why their toon who had say 20 points didnt get picked when they see ones that have lesser points in the finals (maybe you should have also scored the essays?)
peace please

peace please Well, you are upsetting me, not only are you insulting our current contestants, but youre insulting Setsuna's, Gema's, and my judgements.

This is getting ridiculous now, if you did not read all of my other posts on how judging went, then I would suggest you start there before questioning my contest's integrity.

With that said, if you have any other problems, please direct them at me.

peace please watch a beauty pageant (i.e. miss universe) and you'll notice that most of the time the hottest contestants don't get into the top 10.

Alright alright enough... No more pointless yelling at each other in this thread... This is the last time RTS and I will be warning in here.

If you really want someone to yell at direct it at my PM box. Or just someone not in this thread.

I dont want to have to lock it down, but you're starting to leave us no choice. I would rather not have to lock it down. (For many reasons, one being that I'm one of the contestants. ~No I didnt make it in because I'm a moderator.~)

Just keep it civil please...

And... totally hope for a top male model "show" on here later on.

YES, I finally got my mind onto the picture I sent in. These are the others that I considered:


I like the Canthan look, but there were better shots, I guess.


This one, was the one I fought over with the one I sent in. It took FOREVER to eliminate this shot.


Just some comical relief ^^ It was fun posing with Kuun, shes a great model.

Cant wait to see everyone else's shots ^^

Submitted my picture today... uhhh hope I made the right choice. Guess I'll have to wait 5 more days to see if I'm cut or not. Anyway, since All the other contestants wanted to show off their Cutting room floor pics, here is one of mine that I really wanted to submit and maybe should have.



Also, maybe there should be a rule of contestants not posting pictures, wasn't sure if it was almost like swaying the judges with extra pics. Not sure if this is really an issue.

It just reminds me of the real show where everyone gets to watch each others photoshoots, and get inspired by them. However because its impossible for us to do it "live," we can just post our process. But like you said, it might make judges have second opinions >.<

Nice pic, btw.

Well, here's mine. This is one of the rejected shots, even though I really liked the idea. The surroundings were just a tad bit too dark for what I was going for.
