So, if I haven't been contacted in-game yet and it means that my character dropped from the competition, can I write a new application for a totally different character? There's still plenty of time until the final deadline.

I finally sent in my application... waiting begins!
I guess I could show some that I liked but didn't make it in:

TNTMM seems like a cool idea... maybe I could force my brother into the contest and make him play his ranger more

Now that I read that I'm positive I wasn't picked either. Totally bummer man~!! Now you really missed out!

j/k. I'm unsure of if I would want to apply again though if it was possible. I really only have one leading female character and it would require a lot of work and possibly for naught to try to audition another and being uncertain of getting picked or not hmm. Anyway good luck to all those who got an interview and know that now you better make this competition totally ass kicking for those of us who didn't make it! Ya hear!!

I might aswell concentrate on other projects for now but good luck to all who makes it and I'll be watching with great interest! Don't let me down.

Is it possible for those who weren't selected (I'm pretty sure I wasn't since i sent my app on March 15th and never got an email back, not even automatic confirmation I asked for) to email or PM you to ask why, Lady Nilene? I'm just curious, and it might help us do better if there ever is a round 3...

**cosyfiep** · Apr 01, 2007, 02:49 PM // 14:49

my email was sent in on the 25th.....so I guess I suck too....and since they didnt pick a necro, guess she sucks as well...................................

goodbye

Don't worry. She just said it was possible to get feedback if we wanted to later on. Personally I think I know I failed with the lightning. I didn't pay enough attention to it because my monks facial features are very clear nonetheless but I should have paid it more attention. But I will be very offended if the chosen candidates aren't up to standard and if I was neglected only because I live in such a different timezone that contacting me might be a pain in the ass. Not that I wanted to believe that since Perynne also faired so well last cycle.

Don't get discouraged.^^; There were TONS of people not picked and that's just the way it is. You don't suck because of that. Ofcourse it's a bit downputting but so what. Game goes on, there'll be other competitions and so on! Just don't think you suck because of something like this ok.

Want to feel depressed together? I sent in my necro too...

I'm not the one to be saying this, 'cause I only just stopped crying, but we have to try and remember that it is a game.
I entered in the hope that it would help me regain some confidence (as I would have to challenge myself and learn to be and stay happy with my own work, even if someone else feels it sucks), and I'll have to find another way of doing that now. But no matter the reasons why we wanted in and felt that we deserved to get in... We aren't perfect, and the people who judged us aren't perfect. If it had been other people, we might have gotten in, and one of those 12 lucky ones might not have. I guess we'll never know.

But this should not stop us from posting nice pics, encouraging the people who do get in, and enjoy this contest, even if we can't be part of it.

I'll post my application pics, because I personally love them, and still do, even if the judges felt differently (and remember, it is their right to feel that way. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, after all) I hope even those who don't get in will post some of their shots later on. Maybe we could do the assignments the models get too, just for fun, and comment on each other's results!

If anyone wants to talk, you can always PM me!

Aw poo! Now y'all will never see Sax jumping in her nundies in front of a chorus line of nekkid male mesmers . . . or possibly paragons. =D

Oh man that's NASTY! Lmao. I always fall for this tuff. Just last night our photography teacher sent us a very agitated email that someone had broken the photography studio flashlights and all the Nikon D80 cameras in there...and he was really pissed and told the bad students who had done it off and then he went on how he was going to fail us all and kick us out of the course if we weren't more enthusiastic... and GUESS WHO fell for that too(but I wasn't the only one) omg. I was seriously thinking why would any student really do something like that. XD

But then again my teach is really from the UK so, us finnish people are so unfunny when it comes to aprils fools I guess. Kinda depressing. ._.

Roguish Seraph · Apr 01, 2007, 07:32 PM // 19:32

damnit xD I knew I was gonna get pranked sometime today....and I thought I was safe at work >>

Brandon1107 · Apr 01, 2007, 07:49 PM // 19:49

...that was terrible.

Sihaya Syme · Apr 01, 2007, 08:18 PM // 20:18

It's kind of a mean joke, but I'm too relieved that it was a joke to be really upset about it >_>

We're all still in the running, darlings

Ysabeth Noirelune · Apr 01, 2007, 08:19 PM // 20:19

it totally worked on me. Good one ^^

Unlucky Slayer · Apr 01, 2007, 08:44 PM // 20:44

And tired of getting slapped in the face....so I give up, totally give up.

*huggles*

We'll have to prepare ourselves for April 15th... Should we really not get picked. This joke has gotten me nervous T-T
I can imagine this was very hard on you. I just hope it turns out better!
Can you post a picture of your necro?
