For those who aren't familiar with the contest, you can read the details about it in the original thread here: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10181318

Here's the 2 pictures participants could base their entry on:

by Babaroga

by Arcanux

And the winners are...

First place: StarrTheInsane

Second place: NoaNoa

Third place: HaloGhost

4th place: Private Wierzbowski

5th place: Sab

6th place: Earlynn

7th place: greyf0xuk

8th place: bulletsmile

9th place: Raven Flameheart

10th place: Tide To Go

11th place: Perynne

12th place: Boqu

Deciding these weren't easy at all. Especially deciding the top 3 was pretty tough. I was fairly certain which were my 3 favourites, but which order they'd go in was something I kept going back and forth about. NoaNoa's entry definitely looks the most unique and complete of those 3, but overall I think StarrTheInsane is the one I think is overall nicest to look like, probably because of the smooth and clean look of that entry.

And here's the three winners for the handpuppet category of the contest... (yes, 3 winners, I decided to add 2 more prizes

)

First place: ZefvoneeGreff

Second place: HaloGhost

Third place : Anuviel

This was another tough choice. HaloGhost's entry looks absolutely amazing colour-wise (it definitely would have been among top 3 if it was submitted for the primary category), but ZefvoneeGreff's entry just made me laugh out loud when I saw it even though the colouring is relatively not-so-very-great.

Many many thanks to everybody who participated in the contest. Here's a gallery with all 35 entries submitted to the contest: http://www.tzarsectus.com/gallery/ma...g2_itemId=1915

Here's the list of all the prizes:

Primary category:
1: A GW:EN retail key
2: An unopened 2nd year birthday present + 50k
3: An unopened 2nd year birthday present
4: An unopened 1st year birthday present
5: 100k
6: 75k
7: 50k
8: 250 boardwalk prizes
9: 75 boardwalk prizes
10: A Heket Warrior minipet
11: One superior vigor rune
12: 31 birthday cupcakes

Handpuppet category:
1: 50k
2: 69 sugary blue drinks
3: 50 boardwalk prizes

Since many of the prizes have completely different values I'll let each winner choose which prize they'd prefer. So I'll be sending a private message via the forums to each winner (or a whisper ingame) to ask them what prize they'd want (I'll start with asking 1st place winner, then 2nd place and etc...). Please reply to those messages as quickly as you can so I can ask the next in line right afterwards.

If all the winners could post in the thread (or send a private message to me) with their ingame name that'd be very appreciated (otherwise it'll be a bit awkward when Bob The Wammo whispers me and asks for the top prize, and I have no idea if that's actually a winner or not).

I'll have a mini-event later today where the winners can meet up and I'll use the opportunity to hand out some of the prizes. The event will be today at Lion's Arch International 1, 20:00 GMT. If you're uncertain what local time that's for you, you can check via this site: http://www.timezoneconverter.com/cgi-bin/tzc.tzc (check "Use The Following Date/Time", input 20:00:00 as time, and select your time zone in the "To Time Zone" list). If you can't make it that's no problem, I'll just give out prizes whenever I see winners online ingame.

Congratulations to all the winners, and thanks again to all who partcipated.

Looks like...3pm central if I did that right. YAY! My class gets out at 2:15 so I'm pretty sure I can be there.

Perynne · Sep 04, 2007, 05:40 PM // 17:40

Awh, I won't be able to make it. :/ It's a bit too late here and I got school tomorrow really early. Ah well, catch you ingame later then. I hope as many people as possible will be able to show up though, it's always fun to have artist meets ingame.

Congratulations to the winners!

Sooo many talented people entered again, it was a pleasure seeing all the wonderful colouring styles.

I can't make it either, shoot me a whisper later though. Thanks =)
