No I haven't, and DVDF are very mysterious people
I'm just idling in GW, hoping for a PM or something while I'm tinkering away in Photoshop for Glazed UI 1.2.

I gave a look at GWOnline to see what kind of stuff they came up with. It's no wonder all but 2 winners were from Guru. The only one I thought was pretty funny from GWO was the Ettin Club joke. They're not very happy with the skewed results, but they should have a look at the entries over here. They weren't being very creative in the first place, and most entries don't even qualify because they have photos or screenshots in them.
I'd let GWO know how I felt if I didn't need to have my GWO account password emailed to me to do it...
Hey Torsen, which class are you getting Obsidian armor for?

Lol, I was just messing around.
I am not disappointed by the results, there was some really good stuff by the winners.
The one that really got me though was Parasitic Bond. I have to admit, that one was awesome.
Enjoy that armbrace, you definitely earned it with that pro animation.

I posted this over at GWO, figured I'd post it here as well... mainly because of the statistics... thought you guys might be interested. : )

Firstly, this contest was judged fairly with no bias. The origin of the image had no weight in the judging, nor was artistic capability. (Surely Void Assassin from Guru can speak to that). To be completely fair, I asked a total of eight people to judge the contest, over twice what I originally intended.
If you consider the numbers:
Total Thread views: 30,268
Total replies: 485
GWO Views: 10,992
GWO replies: 169
Guru Views: 19,276
Guru replies: 316
Guru clearly just had more replies than GWO. Guru replies also tended to have more pictures per post than GWO did. Doing the math, GWO images made up 25.6% of all submissions (NOT all replies). Apply this to the 13 winners and GWO should have received 3.38 winning entires. So if you really look at it... the numbers sound just about right. And that is completely disregarding all the content of the images.
I would also like to point out that were are giving away prizes that at the absolute minimum have a current market value of 28k and never asked for an entry fee. On top of that, entries were unlimited and no where in the rules did it state that an entrant cannot win more than one prize. Sounds to me like this is a pretty good deal... you have as many chances as you want to get things for free.
Once again, thank you all for participating in this contest. It was a lot of fun to host.
