I think there weren't many votes because a lot of the people didn't agree with the top 20 list in the first place. I'd quite like someone to start another competition with a different format. It was fun seeing all the different entries.

So long and thanx for all the isk

Agreed. I've been thinking about that a bit.

Three judges... Judging to be based on 1024x1024 portraits only, captured the day of submission. I'd love it if CCP Karkur could be one of the judges. Any characters owned by the judges, prize contributors, or contest runner, would be disqualified (we'd need CCP to check this). The person running the contest would select the top ten for judging. Judging to be based on a points system: 10 points for appearance ("beauty"), 5 for pose, 5 for facial expression, 5 for lighting and background. Character with the highest points wins, contest runner decides tie-breaking situations. First, second, and third places would be awarded.

I'm too lazy to run it, and besides, I'd kind of like to enter.

Do any of you people ever look outside of GD?

There is already a long running portrait contest here with top prize over a billion isk value.

There were dozens of attractive entries. I don't know what happened. I wish I voted now. /=

I hear the circlejerk in general discussion between the filthy wee prude role players is intense so nothing would surprise

I agree small minded role players find it hard to see past the end of their nostril thats smells the same stench to conform to being a sheep rather than a shepherd.

fithy role play circlejerk is what happned here

Show me on the Megathron where the Space Barbies touched you.

I'd probably enter as well, although not sure there's any chance for me in such a contest. Then again, this thread did prove that taste is extremely subjective, so, who knows?

The term attractive is also a bit too broad as the entries were all over the spectrum. Just my opinion but I think you would have a better chance with your avatar if the contest was for the prettiest avatar, but maybe less so for a sexiest avatar. I would say that you would even have a shot at the most elegant or classy looking avatar. "Attractive" means so many different things to different people and for many it is that slutty hooker look, which you are not.

If there is another competition so close after this one it should be for something more specific or different. Maybe the smartest/nerdiest looking avatar or perhaps toughest most intimidating looking female avatar.

I completely agree that this contest could have been planned a lot better, the selection process could have been a lot better. Lessons learned and will be applied when I decide to redo the contest. Until then, enjoy the thread!
