Are you Competitive?

[quote=jhoijhoi]THE WINNER FOR THE FIRST 5 ROUNDS IS [color=#00ffff]Zesty[/color]! Give him a round of applause! I am still waiting on the confirmation of the continuation of this competition, get your opinions in! -------------------------- [center][color=#008000][u][b]Current Points[/b][/u][/color] - no points allocated.[/center] ----------------------------- ... then win some rounds! I'm the host, and I will choose an image that you signature makers have to manipulate in any way you like to create a sig for this continuous contest. The best sig, deemed by a round of voting, gets three points, second place gets two points, and third place gets one point. [color=#ffff00]1st Place:[/color] 3 Points [color=blue]2nd Place:[/color] 2 Points [color=red]3rd Place:[/color] 1 Point Each participant is required to cast their votes each round. Watchers may too vote. Voting template: 1st: //username + reason 2nd: //username + reason 3rd: //username + reason ie: 1st: uberprettyusername because their manipulation appealed to me the most due to the alterations of Megatron's laz0r. Points earned will displayed in rounds, ie: USERNAME: Round 1 Points + Round 2 Points = Total This format will continue for 5 Rounds, and the artist will the most points wins. The score "A" stands for "Absent" and/or "Almost got a point". The winner wins the rights to all sigs made in the 5 rounds they won (in a sense you're betting your own sigs to win all the sigs). The text in the signatures uploaded are place-holders where your name will go, if you get to those 50 points. When you win, you're free to do whatever you like with the sigs, return them to their original owners, keep them for yourself, whatever :D I will participate, but my sigs [b]won't be able to be voted upon[/b], because I'm the host ^^ All submissions will be displayed in this post.

[quote=wRAthoFVuLK]I don't get it. Is this like a new SotW thing.. and Round Two? You do two sigs before voting? wat???[/quote]

[quote=jhoijhoi]It's continuous. So after the first round, the second round comes... then after the second round, the third round. You cannot achieve 13 points in the first round, can you? So say, you participated and won, you'd only have 3 points. You'd need to win the next 5 rounds to win over all. And it's not about winning, it's about having an exercise of your skill by forcing you to work with a certain image.[/quote]

[quote=wRAthoFVuLK]Yea but then why are you voting after round two? Also, what about the SotW...this is basically the SotW with slightly different rules, are you just gonna ditch the SotW and make everyone do this? o_O And as I said before I don't really like the idea of making everyone just use one image, it takes away half the fun and is really then just a competition of who the best/most experienced sig maker is, as to what they do with the image, rather than who picked the best image and then made it look really good to suit that specific image.[/quote]

[quote=jhoijhoi]That's the point of this competition. You have to try to achieve, not just pull a random image off the net and put some text on it and win. Wrath, I don't understand how you don't understand what's going on here. People submit their sigs. We vote on said sigs. One person gets 3 points, for coming first. One person gets 2 points for coming second. One person gets 1 point for coming third. END OF ROUND ONE. See? Then Round Two starts. People submit their sigs. We vote on said sigs. One person gets 2 points for coming second. One person gets 1 point for coming third. If the artist has come a place before this, in Round One, their points will add up. So say they came first, then came third, that's 3 + 1, right? So now their tally is 4. END OF ROUND TWO. See? Then Round Three starts. People submit their sigs. ETC ETC ETC. What exactly don't you grasp, because it is quite an easy concept to understand, and the fact that I had to explain it in such detail astounds me. No, it is not SotW, because it has different parameters. People can participate in both. With some many new people making sig shops, I figured they'd want more chances to practice with their art.[/quote]

[quote=wRAthoFVuLK]T_T I understand that, don't think I'm an idiot. I just didn't see the voting part of ROUND ONE Saturday 06/08/2011 - Tuesday 09/08/2011 VOTING Wednesday 10/08/2011 But I saw the voting part of ROUND TWO Thursday 11/08/2011 - Sunday 14/08/2011 VOTING Monday 15/08/2011 so I thought that there was like two rounds and then voting which made no sense, I just missed the Wednesday voting...chillll.[/quote]

[quote=jhoijhoi]I didn't think you were an idiot, but your comments just made you look like an idiot, not understanding how it worked, when everything was in the original post o.O Also, I didn't think there'd be a problem with having more than one competition running. Anyway, here's my example of what could be done. [center][IMG]http://i1106.photobucket.com/albums/h380/thejhoijhoi/sivir-1.png[/IMG][/center][/quote]

[quote=spooon][IMG]http://i1210.photobucket.com/albums/cc403/spooonishere/Sivir_Splash_1.jpg[/IMG] Ill just leave the high res version of the picture here, for everyone that would want that. btw ill submit myn when its done.[/quote]

[quote=wRAthoFVuLK]yea your image is a little bugged jhoi, you can't open it in a new tab o_O and btw, as I said, I understood how it worked, you misread my comments...all that happened is I didn't notice the round 1 voting...GEEEZ[/quote]

[quote=Brynollf]Hmm might be doing one soon.[/quote]
