So, I've decided that I want to hold an art contest.

This was recently inspired by this wonderful image (small version in my signature) that Ichigo drew. Colored version here

So, I've ran into a problem.

We never really assigned sins and virtues to people. It was sort of arbitrary at the time as to whom wanted whatever and who was present.

If I'm going to host the contest, I'm going to need a list of people for the sins and virtues... however, there is a problem. We have way more people than sins and virtues. There's only 14 in total, and we have well over 200 modists.

So, my solution?
Well, its an art contest. Art contests need prizes. If we really want some great art, we need to fund it properly.

So, as bastardly as this may sound, I'm thinking the list of people should be assigned by whom is willing to contribute to the prizes.
I absolutely hate to have to resort to this, but I can't think of a better way.

I can't fund it all myself. I need contributors. Contributors should have first pick in what they want. Its just logical. neutral

Possible complications?

If two people are competing over a single slot, I will allow them to debate amongst them selves and hopefully settle it. If not, I will try to accomidate for them both. Either that means by moving one person to a different sin/virtue that also works, or allowing for two or more people to occupy a single sin/virtue slot.
I want this to work smoothly, but I also care for everyone willing to participate. I will try to be as fair as possible.

How will this be structured?

I was going to upgrade a nov and dec '03 (maybe even 2 dec '03s) into letters as prizes for the best group pictures (all 7 sins or all 7 virtues).

For the specific sins and virtues (in case someone doesn't have the time to make a gigantic peice of art), I was going to have the people who are wishing to get specific peices of art as them as their respective sin or virtue to offer up prizes based on what sort of gaian gold they can dish out, or what they can afford.

You can collaborate with other sin or virtue members and offer up prizes for group photos with you and one or more other members, if you wish as well.

So, we need to make a list. Who wants a part of this?

Nope.
As much as I hate to do this, this is an art contest.
I want everyone to get amazing art. Amazing art often requires money. Its a harsh world. crying
You'd think I'd be greed if I was doing it like this...

Also, if slots don't get filled, I'm going to arbitrarily fill them based on whom I believe fit the description. So you could wait around, if you wanted.

Are we going to do it as it was, with a guy and a girl for each sin/virtue?

...if we don't, Kia gets to bid against me for wrath, because I don't really think I fit any others, and I'd like to be involved somehow, despite lacking art skills. redface

If I have to bid against her, I'm up to 2k.

If not, I'll just match Kia at 1.5k.

We'd have to figure that out later on. Personally, I'd like a single person for each sin/virtue, however, if we get enough users interested in doing this, I might opt to upgrade and allow for multiples.

However, like I said, if there is a power struggle for something, I'm fine with having more than one person for a single sin/virtue. However, this means for the artists that would be participating, if they were only to include a single person for each sin/virtue (for the group pictures), they would have a choice on who to include, and you might not end up in it.

Alright, that makes sense. I'll argue with Kia and wave my GaiaBankStatement in her face until she realizes I have more money than her, and have no problem spitting it all out here.

..... twisted Wrath shall be mine, or I'll have to break someone.
