Someone should call her... Lol Can you imagine? "Hi! Can I speak to Jocus please? ... JocusDorkus is she home...? ...Hello? He-Hello?" I'm funny... :crickets: Really, it sounds better in person... :sigh:

Don't worry, I'm almost done with it! Photoshop decided to act pesky now *shakes fist at photoshop* took me forever and day to get to stop flashing wildly about. grr...

It'll be up in ten minutes!

Ohhh Goodie!! I hate when you have to beat photoshop into submission...lol

I'm just curious guys... Now that it's over, what was your favorite round?

#433 Old 18th Jul 2007 at 4:18 AM
Zaggytiddies, I think Round 2. I liked the alter ego and the My Space pages. And I loved seeing what everyone came up with that round.

I think this last round was the most work. A collection is so hard to do in the Sims. Plus the photoshopping for the mag and a freeshot which meant I had to think. The round was hard for me.

ETA: Forgot to mention Happy Birthday David Hasselhoff!!!! Cause I now have that useless piece of trivia rattling around in my brain.

Okay! Officially done! Here

And I would say the third round for me. Once I finally knew what I was going to do for the Buffy shots, I really got into it, and it's one of the rounds I'm most proud of.

I know! It is quite fitting! Hehe, I'm sure Madonna is celebrating the best way any stalker can! LOL

Oh, and Zaggy, you can actually ask for me with that name! Everyone knows it in my household, LOL

Jocus YAY..I'm so glad you got your mag cover in. And it's wonderful!

Zaggy I'd have to go with Scout on that one. Round 2 was definately my favorite. Round 3 was...well..I got last place so what does that say..wasn't my fave. But Round 2 was awesome. I have enjoyed this round though, better than round 3. I like how you kind of let us do whatever..sort of...lol

#439 Old 18th Jul 2007 at 8:07 AM
Wonderful entry Jocus! I love your free shot!

Zaggy, I liked all rounds, but I loved the second round, the alter ego and myspace page were so much fun!

Ohh, and I just found something you might be interested in

Round 2 was also my favorite... I debated a lot on when to have that ... I was going to wait for the last round but I'm so glad I didn't since we had so many drops.

Lara that was really funny... I can totally relate to the eye sight thing... lol

Ok guys... the time has come. I just want to say THANK YOU to everyone who participated. There was some tough competition but through the judges hard work ( for them!) We have our scores..... Without further ado!

Total= 49/50
Comments: *o* Looking through this round and all your other entries, I do think you'll win. All your ideas have been original, you've gotten the point across in your pictures, and not to mention how beautiful Mina is: Inside and out. Plus, your sensational graphics could help

Mnemosyne:
Creativity: 15/15
Originality: 13/15
Picture Quality: 8/15
How they accomplished the task: 9/10
Total= 45/50
Comments: Your entries were always creative and original, I just don't believe that they were conveyed well enough through picture and text. Also, Marcilynn never really stuck out in my mind like some of the other finalist, and semi-finalist. I think you put a good effort in this contest and you can see the improvement over time.

Scout:
Creativity- 15/15
Originality- 15/15
Picture Quality- 9/10
How they accomplished the task- 10/10
Total= 49/50
Comments: Madonna was my personal favorite in the contest. Her personality was very dynamic compared to other contestants, and I could see her as being a real person. She looks a lot different without glasses She's so cute, and so is her Hoff obsession (Though I personally cannot stand him) Best of luck
JocusDorcus:
Creativity- 15/15
Originality-15/15

Comments: In the beginning of the contest, I thought you were going to win. Instead of the goodness improving, I kind of think it decreased, sorry. I think you could have (and might have) definitely won, but you were not as focused as some of the other contestants.

I love that the water balloon incident turned into something great for Marcilynn. Some of your things on the magazine were very funny. The potato chips are very creative and very nerdy... best of the collections I think. The article was a nice touch. Great Job and Good Luck

It’s obvious you spent a ton of time on your entry. Way to step it up. It’s funny, engaging... heck I want to read more Too bad it’s over huh? There are so many things in this entry that tell us what Madonna is like... (“I have a Baywatch bathing suit I sometimes wear as I look at my collection.”... “that may sound weird, but I think of myself as his guardian angel. I watch over him. Even when he sleeps” ) Then other times is just down right funny Great Job Good Luck

Thanks!!!! Of course Madonna would show her happiness through the art of clogging.

Congrats to everyone. I loved looking at all the entries each round. All the nerds were so different and interesting and that really came through on the entries.

Thanks to Zaggytiddies for the wonderful contest. And the judges for their work. And big thanks to the power of The Hoff. I'm most grateful that I will not have to look at another Hoff picture.

:cdance: This was just great! I loved it! Congrats Lara and Scout, I think Madonna is as grateful for it, perhaps now the cops could go easier on her when they hear she's Miss Nerd, eh? LOL

Yay, we tied together Mnemosyne! It really was a great round and great contest as whole, I think every contestant has done exceptional, and I want to thank you Zaggy for conceiving this contest. I can't stress enough *chants cycle 2* :banana:

I don't get into contests to win (weird, huh? ), I do 'cause I hope they're going to fun and something different from the usual, and this held up to my expectations and more! Thank you and be good everyone! LOL :grouphug:
