Is there some kind of sin where i can't credit people for helping me out? i deleted a comment pretty much bitching about this and i find it weird that we yell at people not crediting tektek makers ... but when i credit people who helped with fine-tuning some problems, it's wrong???

... I really don't understand how one of the better cosplays I've created is also my worst rated. What gives? Seriously? neutral

I think some people are getting harsher with the cosplay ratings. Since there are only 8 pages, it is a lot easier to get through all of them and get nit-picky then it used to be.

when people make the stupidest assumptions about your entry and your score suffers for it.

No, I didn't use a set. I avoid sets.

I'm just that good at coordinating. cat_cool

I'm sick of the downvoting trend that's been plaguing the arena for the past few years. It started with upvoting friends and then spread into doing that AND downvoting the competition. Now it's nearly impossible to win unless you have a large friend list or a shitload of guild mates on your side. cat_emo Nothing but a popularity contest now. It's not about how good your avatar looks, just about how many people you have on your side. It's like a school student body position election, it's a popularity contest and everyone knows it, but no one can do anything. I don't even enter the arena anymore because I know it's a waste of time...

You did really well! 3nodding

I placed this week too, Its a shame, if we went a week before, we could've been higher than 5th!

What's the bias against plain avatars? I'm pretty sure when done right, an avatar entirely made out of Commons can be better than an Avatar entire made of EIs/MCs/RIGs.

That is if the person behind the computer screen has a sense of style. Which I really don't think the Avatar Arena is about at all.

I don't have a massive number of Gaia friends. I do hope that doesn't mean I shouldn't have entered to begin with, reading over all this. ...I entered mostly for fun, but I would LOVE to place with this cosplay.

I too hate the Idea of the whole thing becoming a popularity contest. It just entered for the second time this month an I doubt it's even been looked at sweatdrop
