Oh, stop it.
you are being silly.
pm that person again :D
Heh, I know this is a little late to reply, but I just found the thread..
I can't really agree... maybe some of them take the time to make the colored world in the the O...
I spent 6 hours drawing a poster with the world map and the large word Evony on it... I figured 'If I'm gonna draw the whole map, I can do the little world in the O.'
I'm not sure if this is the same case (taking the time to do it) for everyone, but just saying that just because it has the colored world in the O doesn't mean its photoshopped.
Hehe, I actually have my poster on my wall next to my computer... I love it. :o :o
I havent seen any entries that appear photoshopped. :)
yet entries have been removed because you could appear to see that they were breaking the rules ?
Oops i forgot 2 sets of rules how foolish of me
I think maybe we're being a little too serious about this contest? I know one thing I'll miss when its gone is all the "have fun" threads that popped up. All the entries seem to be decent to me, and not breaking any rules.
I didn't think the males who ran for queen was a serious attempt. I thought it was just to add a joke to the whole thing.
The umbrella could be photoshopped, but it wouldn't be hard to make either. It's a see-through umbrella, and it's backlit. Meaning the fronts of the letters are all darkened in comparison. They could have easily just pinned the letters, or even taped or glued them in place. I admit the spacing and angles, and the fact that the letters would be upside down when the umbrella is viewed from the normal direction is a bit suspect, but it's all within the realm of reason.
No it wasnt a serious attempt at all, there was 1 alleged male entrant, dawnseeker actually commented in the thread that they would vote for the alleged male, a lot of people found it amusing and humerous and took it the way it was intended.. then without rhyme or reason given it was removed along with the post of dawnseeker saying they liked the picture and wanted to vote for it. How can a mod make one statement approving of an entry, and then another mod remove it.
I realised in the end why it was removed and why they couldnt give an explanation, and that was because if all of the entries were able to be voted on, theres a fair chance that an alleged male entry would beat at least a few of the females, and they were worried about how those females would feel if beaten in a picture contest by a male dressed as a female.
rawrrrrrrrrr cat fight!!!!
I think that this is possible but we really don't know since they never really posted how it was to be narrowed or judged.
Also I think that to allow guys to enter would turn it into a joke/farce and take away from what the contest was meant to add to the game/community. I know that when I was in High School we had guys cross dress as a joke for homecoming queen... and would have won if not disqualified.
IMHO, the mods were simply trying to keep the integrity of the contest. I guess we will see when they decide to announce the vote.
As an aside i think it would be hilarious to run a (Drag)Queen of Evony contest as well :P
