Winners selected:

2005-11-06 [Sir. Robert]: Is there a reason why only the "Best Duck" badges have been modified in size? ...It kind of destroys the transparent gif backgrounds

2005-11-06 [Hedda]: Fixed now. It was just me being stupid.

2005-11-06 [Sir. Robert]: Ok...Thanks :) ...though you missed [iippo]'s and [Ocean Soul]'s entries (sorry :P)

2005-11-07 [Hedda]: Oupps! It's the crappy editor in the browser that makes me confused.

2005-11-07 [Sir. Robert]: Thank you! ...I doubt anyone even noticed anyways (I am just crazy)

2005-11-07 [Sunrose]: Why were the badges placed per artist instead of per badge? If people now vote for an artist, you don't know which badge they voted for and both will end up in the badgeslot. In some cases meaning two or more best badges of the same race too..

2005-11-07 [Melocrie]: Yeah I agree.

2005-11-07 [Jitter]: yep I agree as well. And I also believe that this will also end as a goddamn popularity contest. Artist popularity that is not art... Sniff... I expected that I'd be quite ahead with the halflings... *cry*

2005-11-07 [Melocrie]: Yeah, that would be a waste

2005-11-07 [Ocean Soul]: It´s always somehow about popularity. But duh, what can you do about it..

2005-11-07 [Elisha Kelly]: yeah well the way it is going, someone will end up with pretty much all the badges... twee I got a vote:P

2005-11-07 [Jitter]: yeah and that's quite unfair... we all tried :( wee I got some votes too :p

2005-11-07 [Duredhel]: For some reason I feel like I'm being dizzed here :S...

2005-11-07 [Jitter]: no I don't judge you. I judge those people who vote just for their friends and don't even look at other people's work. It's not your fault

2005-11-07 [Elisha Kelly]: I love your work Duredhel... but you are going to pretty much get all the badges :} It just kinda leaves others without... :P you are going to be all races in one. I just think they should've let people enter in their own race only for that very reason.

2005-11-07 [Duredhel]: Yeah that probably would've been the best way to go, but I tried hard with my badges too, I don't think its fair to disregard votes as "popularity" because one is not winning. Hell, this is the second contest I've entered here in ET, whereas [Asrun] and [TheRogue] have fanclubs :S (not trying to take merit from them either, actually a friend made one for me but it's got about 6 people XD). I also don't think people would go in and vote for whoever they know without looking at the rest of the stuff.

2005-11-07 [Elisha Kelly]: Oh you definately deserve to win if you come out ahead... fair is fair... and I can see the appeal of the artworks, my beef is with the setup.

2005-11-07 [Duredhel]: I totally agree with you in that regard.

2005-11-07 [Elisha Kelly]: :P problem is no thought of it till it came to voting :)

2005-11-07 [Jitter]: Well I like your badges too! I love them not just like them, but you're gonna leave us all behind you talented one you! (I have told you some days ago that you have mad skills!) I am a tad bitter because I didn't get as many votes as I expected but we all know that most times winners are the most popular ones. Don't take me wrong dear [Duredhel] :)

2005-11-07 [Elisha Kelly]: i am happy with my one vote... *hugs vote*

2005-11-07 [Jitter]: heheh I think I'll copy that attitude! *hugs whatever vote :p*

2005-11-07 [Duredhel]: uhmm... tell ye what... if [Hedda] has no problem with it, i'm willing to withdraw my human, my elf and my dwarf from the comp.

2005-11-07 [Elisha Kelly]: :P keep them... it just reminds us to think things through next time :P... besides if you could manage to be all things at once, you'd make a pretty wicked fantasy creature :P :P :P

2005-11-07 [Jitter]: Nooo don't :( DOn't do it. We don't want you to withdarw them. We're just jealous our badges are not so popular ;p EDIT: lol [Elisha Kelly] ^_^

2005-11-07 [Sir. Robert]: I love your entries [Duredhel]....Dont withdrawl them (I'm supprised I got 2 votes)

2005-11-07 [Elisha Kelly]: besides, we like a good winge and a bitch... we are elftowners XD

2005-11-07 [Jitter]: Why are you surprised? Your duck is pretty :D

2005-11-07 [Sir. Robert]: We should make an angry mob...with pitchforks...and torches...Just for fun! :P

2005-11-07 [Duredhel]: hahaha XD actually Sir Robert's duck is my favourite one :P I like it better than my duck.

2005-11-07 [Sir. Robert]: lol :P ...there we go canceling out our votes!

2005-11-07 [Elisha Kelly]: i like charybdis's duck, even though it looks like a goose :P

2005-11-07 [Jitter]: I like everyone apart from mine. But I esp like Vash's they're so stylish!

2005-11-08 [dami]: Hehe, if I'm going to get even one vote I'll be super happy:P :D

2005-11-08 [Jitter]: I voted for you! I like his teeth ^_^ I wish I could win the halfling badge but if I'm going to be beaten let it be by Duredhel :)

2005-11-08 [dami]: Heh, I voted for you too, but I'm going to be mystirious and not teel which race(s):P :D Hmm and I got another mystery vote too, now I can be twice as super happy:)

2005-11-08 [Jitter]: I told you his teeth are superb. It's the same reason I voted one more badge! Shiny teeth ;p

2005-11-09 [spiritee]: haha wow, we're all getting our buttocks kicked by dear [Duredhel] XD

2005-11-09 [Sir. Robert]: Ok...I have a question for [Duredhel]...Was that picture you used for a duck origionally a duck? It makes me think of some crazy magician that accidentally turned himself into a duck :P

2005-11-09 [Duredhel]: uh? well I thought of it as a duck, all of those pictures I made originally for this competition ^^' they're not re-used or anything.

2005-11-09 [Sir. Robert]: I was just trying to figure out the mind behind the genius...I just keep seeing it and thinking evil wizard duck :P

2005-11-09 [Jitter]: It reminds me of phantom duck ;p

2005-11-09 [Duredhel]: wut's phantom duck? :P

2005-11-09 [spiritee]: that's what i'm wondering, too ;D

2005-11-09 [Ocean Soul]: o_O You´re not talking about Phantomias, are you.

2005-11-09 [Jitter]: Phantom Duck is the secret id of Donald Duck :p

2005-11-09 [Duredhel]: had no idea Donald Duck had a secret id >_>

2005-11-09 [Jitter]: Hahah well I used to buy some comic when I was young and there was a whole issue dedicated to Phantom Duck and even presented us with his ultima beak o_0

2005-11-09 [Jitter]: Oh here it is! http://www.salimbeti.com/paperinik/en/art.htm

2005-11-09 [Sir. Robert]: LOL...cute!

2005-11-09 [Ocean Soul]: Phantomius is his name then, as far as I can see.. I recently read some of those comics >.> *likes donald duck*

2005-11-09 [Jitter]: ohh he was phantom duck here... You never know with greek translators... :p

2005-11-09 [Ocean Soul]: Well, what do I know >.> In german his name is Phantomias, so that would be kind of close to it. But then the three ducklings' names are Tick, Trick and Track :P So bleh :P

2005-11-10 [Elisha Kelly]: huey dewy and louie here... :P

2005-11-10 [Ocean Soul]: Yea, those are the proper names, I know. Every heard about Phooey? ;)

2005-11-10 [Jitter]: yeah huey and rest here too. But it's more arg I can't explain... Χιούη, Λιούη, Ντιούη :p

2005-11-10 [RoyDante]: heh..Phantom Duck-- Varjoankka.. Hey [Duredhel], great badges, I know they'll win ^_^

2005-11-10 [Jitter]: I love your frog! The angel is a bit messy but the frog is priceless!

2005-11-10 [Jitter]: Nah he's getting his butt kicked by [TheRogue]:p Only a few days left now... Oh well...

2005-11-11 [Viking]: [spiritee]'s Zombie badge is the best of the bunch!

2005-11-11 [Sir. Robert]: I'm really supprised at the small voting turnout!

2005-11-11 [spiritee]: OMGOWSH. all this time i thought [Duredhel] was female. <_<'" oops.

2005-11-11 [Duredhel]: man >_< well isn't that emasculating... hey [spiritee] I was browsing through your stuff, an art trade sometime would be interesting.

2005-11-11 [spiritee]: that would be nice, except nothing i need is functioning, so it'll be a while before i can produce new art. scanner and photoshop are both busted.

2005-11-12 [Jitter]: I also thought [Duredhel] was a girl at first:p Then I checked his house. Lol

2005-11-12 [Lord Toilet]: But isn't it just unfair for one person to win almost all of the categories? That's my two cents Maybe it's not so fair for all those people that worked this hard for the contest. Not trying to bass [Duredhel] I'm just saying what I believe

2005-11-12 [spiritee]: well if you think about it, he worked hard on all his badges too, and frankly, i like them a lot~ adunno, it'll depend on him and hedda.

2005-11-12 [Jitter]: i like his badges too apart from the elf! Sorry [Duredhel] I jusy can't like your elf... It must be the cloak... Or hat... or her eyes... Meh Beats me. My fave is the orc though! Great orc :D

2005-11-13 [Jitter]: Oh and the halfling... Too scary for a halfling

2005-11-13 [Duredhel]: I like the hafling, the elf and the duck more than the other because they're attipical and have a lot of personality. The Dwarf and Orc are just... meh, run of the mill character anyone could've made, they have no personality other than that of every orc and dwarf ever made.

2005-11-14 [Sir. Robert]: What is the hafling carrying?

2005-11-14 [Jitter]: A big pipe ;p

2005-11-14 [Sir. Robert]: OMG...that is great... (I thought it was a big hammer)

2005-11-16 [a_faded_star]: [Jitter] your orcs are sooo cute :o)

2005-11-19 [Hedda]: [Asrun]'s is the only winner that actually follows the rules about size... I should have noticed this earlier. It's too late now.

2005-11-19 [Jitter]: let's disqualify the other ones :p >:) (That's a loser speaking now don't pay attention to me XD)

2005-11-19 [RoyDante]: *sniffy* Q_Q what about the outside the competition badges..? lol..
