@ Ye Olde Girly Cat Man-Actually it's the name of a musical artist who put his on spin on said director as a sort of tribute and anagram.Something that is in line with both people,however,is they are truth speakers,something that I do best.

@Pee-I figured you weren't going to give me a direct answer,either because you know I'm right about most of what I said or you just want to force feed me,and everyone else,your points,without so much of giving a correlation of anyone else's opinion.But that's alright,because I like to point something else out that I've noticed from the two years that I've known you:

You really don't have much merit to be so judgmental about anyone's creations considering you've never placed in the arena,and I don't mean the crude of a feature we have now.And believe me when I say you use to be very demeaning and rash in what you would leave on peoples' entries. considering things.Sure you have some things that did very well,I shall admit your troll doll was very colorful and I'm not just talking about the primary colors of it,but other than the few entries you did it was nothing that captivated or would have even gandered the attention for you to win and give you more credibility,and that includes the ones from that other account you had.Like I said in my previous post,anyone can make a critique thread,but when you have no merit to what you say or do,whether you're doing it for fun or to make a point,it makes it hard to take what you say serious.That,and it makes you seem like a hypocrite when you contradict yourself on certain things.

So,in an effort to correct those issues,I'd like to offer a challenge to you involving the arena,one I'd be more than happy to award you for.But since this is "just a mule account",I doubt you willing to accept,but I assure you,being the truth speaker I am,it is no rouse,and it would give you the means and reason to critique many of those undeserving and horrid entries you so despise while keeping your credibility.The fact of the matter is,do you want to you what my challenge is here or through pm? And mind you,I rather do it here seeing as how the truth can be eschewed when it is said between two people,and I rather let the regulars of this thread and this forum know what's going on.

pikachew for your Illumise i think you need some purple mascara from the masquerade

[Sukuya]

Maybe this Scorzayzee guy is a sore winner who is upset because you didn't think he should have placed.
In all honesty I think Pikachew's critiques have improved and gotten nicer since I've made myself common to this forum. With the advice she does put out I think she checks and double checks in tektek. If you have a question on why she ranted so harshly on something specific she always provides a tl;dr of reasons she believes it sucks and a better version in tektek on it.

If you're still unhappy with the way she sees things, you could go to any other critique thread. If you honestly hate how she sees things then why do you keep coming here?

And another thing, Pikachew does have some nice entries and while they haven't placed they are pretty. In all honesty with Pikachew's knowledge on item base and her ability to suggest ways to improve current avatars, she could create something that could win. She just doesn't enter anymore. That and from what I've seen of voters lately, the gaian public eye just doesn't know which avatars actually belong in the winner's circle.

[Valgaror]

Don't you think you're taking all of this a bit ridiculously seriously? It's a thread, where someone offers their opinion on the winners - who more than likely will get piles of praise and admiration from others regardless of whether or not it's deserved - but anyway, the point is, it's all opinion. Placing isn't really a necessary credential to know whether or not something looks wrong or if a cosplay is off, and there's nothing wrong with sarcastic humor.

Eheheh.. personally I started checking this thread each week to see what it'd take, and whether any actually would, earn an approval rating.. but eventually continued coming back because most of the critiques were pretty hilarious. Honestly, if I ever did place in the arena, I think I'd enjoy reading this thread and the other winner-critique-threads more than the win itself. It reminds me of the kinds of entry comments people should be giving - not just mindless praise, but usually helpful and thought out criticism, often with suggestions, and in this case, pretty damn entertaining.

s**t I have to leave for work.

Guys please don't bring up the rant let pikachew handle it or the thread will be deleted again.

[Lady Rat]

either pikachew's standards have lowered or the arena has gotten a little better. lately i see her enjoying what has come out of the arena a little more. that doesn't mean she will like all, and be honest, would you enjoy coming back to this thread if she did? i think not.

...
hehe... kangaroo rat has a big fat head... hehe (also known as 5th place).

[Vivid Fizz]

I like Chew's reviews and having won multiple times, have found her advice to be sound, if not something I would go for. Thank you for the review of the 8th place avatar, by the way, I will pass the information on to Stemcells wink

She'll be happy to have it.

[Ebil Overlord of Awesome]

lol, I cried when I saw Gizmo.
(though the neon did kinda ruin it...)

[marshmallowcreampie]

Glad you have your thread back, Pikachew. Yeah, this weeks winners weren't that great. The "Rufus Cosplay" could've been better if she just entered it as a regular avatar and didn't try to pass it off as Rufus. Also, that Kanye reference is WIN.
