hehe Yep, won't be for a while but here's what I'll do:

After the 15th (when the applications are due) I'll post everyone's entry shots. Then, when the judges have decided who will be entered in the competition, I'll post those pictures too. Especially since most of the applicants have more than one photo.

I'm so excited! hehe One of the judges informed me that they'll be on vacation for the holidays so it's possible this competition will be postponed until they get back. Either that, or I can bring in my backup judge. It depends on the dates. I told them the competition will begin on the 29th, so...yeah. lol Good luck everyone! And thanks to all who are going to be watching! And congrats to Kit for winning Tyria's Next Top Superstar!

Awe ty Tender! <3

That sounds like fun (posting photos) so that people has something to look in on...are you going to have a feedback thread started once your competition gets rolling? I always loved the outtakes

Helped pass the time and got quite a few laughs.

I am curious, what professions/male or female do you still not entrants for? Might make a difference in what your future applicants send in...I love diversity and would love to see this develop into a real good mix of profs as as guys and girls ;D -just curious

Ooo yes, can't forget the feedback thread! lol I think Stalker put TNTS's in the screenshot requests section so I'll have to remember that.

Outtakes are hilarious. haha

I have the following applications/professions:

1 female necromancer (Corrupt Rosary)
1 male necromancer (Xanthier Lizarous)
2 male warriors (Halmyr the Patient & Marco Furion)
1 female mesmer (Scarlet Renoux)
1 male assassin (Ill Zeratul Ill)

Lots more I can have yet. hehehe

Ooo the competition is fierce. It's heating up! *talks in a scary voice then bursts into evil laughter* lol

Anyway...I've been spending lots of times reviewing all the applications. Remember, they're due on Dec. 15 and only 10 people can enter. Go crazy! lmao I also spent most of my morning take screenshots for the assignments I've come up with. Let me just say, it's hard to get a good shot with a weapon while fighting mobs who like to run around you and turn you around so you face them, messing up your background. Not to mention henchies running around in the shots and messing it up. hehe

I can't wait to see how my first contest turns out!

If I've done the dates correctly the assignments will be as follows (in regards to when they'll be posted):

Assignment #1: Dec. 29
Assignment #2: Jan. 5
Assignment #3: Jan. 12
Assignment #4: Jan. 19
Assignment #5: Jan. 26
Assignment #6: Feb. 2
Assignment #7: Feb. 9
Assignment #8: Feb. 16
Assignment #9: Feb. 23

And the results for the grand finale will probably be posted on Feb. 29 or Mar. 1. Of course, this is subject to change because you never know if something will come up with the judges and such. But the first assignment will be posted on Dec. 29, no exceptions.

Good luck to all applicants and thanks to all viewers!

Which is why I just kill everything, flag my heroes and henchmen away, then take the shot.

Ahh I can soooo identify with you on that Tender /reminisces about getting last shot with Crystal Dragon in Glint's Lair...trying to balence build so I didn't kill the dragon and he didn't kill me lol...time the shot so he looks good,Kiti looks good, and use of skill looks good..1000 shots later

There ya have it guys!!!

First dead give away/freebie hint!

If you haven't tried to do an action shot using an emote or skill while fighting with a mob/boss and dragging henchies go practice trying to pull off a great shot and see what it takes to do such cuz you already got a hint that its coming!

Sorry Tender, I'm advocating for your entrants and had to take advantage of your slip up Muaaahaaaa haaa haaaaaaaaaaaaaaw!

*takes more notes*

Can hardly ignore advice given by a champion

(and after the epicness of the application shot I sent in my gut is telling me that I'll be in the final 10 - though I can already hear Norgu telling me that I have been wrong before

)

Really nice pics Shizoku! The first one with the chant wings makes it look like you're taking off and starting to fly away like a superhero... And what location did you use for the third one? I love the glassy backdrop

idea, you should totally make this contest males vs females, get a equal amount of males and females applications, and do "teams" like, female picture theme "combat pictures" and male theme is "love pictures" (example)

and make it in a way that every week you eliminate 1, but never from the same team 2 weeks in a row. like week 1 male eliminated, that means that week 2 males cant be eliminated, only females. so at the end there will be 1 males vs 1 female in top 2.

just an idea i had!

just so it is not too similar to the other contests and is more fun ^.~

I like the idea of bringing out the uniqueness of the competition Maria!

new ideas for assignments FTW!

As neat as it would be to have a male vs. female tho, I'd sure hate to see a less deserving competitor get to dodge the axe cuz it's not their week for elimination...you and I both know what hard work it is week by week..I just wanna see the cream rise to the top ^.^

I sure do like the twist of females in male themes and vice versa...hmmm make guys dye all their armor pastel??? lawl that would be so mean ha ha ha! I look forward to the assignments and seeing how they take advantage of the unique dynamics of the comp

rofl You guys are hilarious. So many ideas.

*writes them all down* Ooo I'm so excited! hehe

Update - Congrats to me, I passed my college entrance exam! School starts on Jan. 8, and my boyfriend will probably be coming to spend Christmas and New Year's with me. As such, time may be limited but I promise I'll do my best with this competition. My boyfriend knows I'm hosting it so I know he'll be understanding. The biggest problem is school, but I'm sure I can find some spare time.

I now have 9 applications, and I only need at least 10. But remember, they're not due until Dec. 15 and the competition starts on Dec. 29. Good luck everyone!

Lucky thing - I *never* get monstrous drops (as if the nerf bat didn't make my own rit unhappy enough). Though if you happen to come across any excess silk, I need to resupply on that for the next addition to DT's wardrobe, and I could give you a good price for it
