All Spots Filled!

❀
Entering is quite simple.
Send your Contestant Application Form to Tuxedo Cake (That's me) and I'll pm you back saying whether or not you're accepted. After that all you have to do is send a 500g entrance fee (to help with funds) to our mule account (iluvmuffins). Next you get to choose a model of your choice. NOTE: You may not change the hair or the eyes without our permission in the challenge description. There will be certain challenges that allow you to do so, so don't get your knickers in a twist. ;D The number of people being disqualified per week varies, but just read the challenge post to find out. Once we have all 15 contestants the contest will start. If you win the challenge, you will be safe from elimination for next week, or you will get a different mini prize like changing your model or being allowed to use wigs and oculus in a challenge where no one else can.

I'll need an exported headshot of your avatar from every contestant.
Simply click this link to get yours: Exported Headshot Link

Judging will be done by 3 different judges. After judging is complete, to find the round winner each person's scores for that round will be averaged out. Lowest however many scorers are eliminated. More info again later. Here is the rough judging board (one for each of the 3 judges);

[How to Become a Judge]
We don't want this contest to be biased or anything, so we are letting anybody apply for a judging position. Post your judging applications in this forum. Just simply fill out the form below, and my co - host or I will either accept or decline your application. I am looking for people with different tastes of avatars, so don't be afraid to apply. We don't bite. ;3 I'll need an exported avatar from you as well, so everyone can see who is judging them. There are no judging spots open. If we can't decide between two people, whoever posted theirs first is in, so hurry and post your entries.

❀Getting Temperamental, Are We?

Challenge 4: Our fourth challenge will be to make an avatar that represents the temperament that you are assigned with a partner. Temperaments were assigned randomly and partners have been assigned according to your scores in Round 3. You may decide among your partners as to which one of you is doing whichever of the two temperaments you were assigned. :] Skin dyes, wigs and oculus items / contacts ARE allowed, but you may NOT change the color of your avatar's hair and eyes. Dream - free layering as always is permitted. Good luck, and remember; you will have exactly one week to get your challenges in; the challenges will be due next Saturday, on May 30th, 2009. Please PM your entries to Tuxedo Cake. You can discuss your creations in the thread, but its not in until its sitting in her inbox. Now get to work! :]

Description (if needed/wanted): Temperance takes what it gets, is subdued and modest, but gluttony is flamboyant, takes more than it needs and is the temptation of want and greed.
