@Harpie, I agree. 4-5 choices at a time and when we click neither give us more choices instead of just waiting another round. I have a feeling that a lot of entries placed lower mainly because they weren't shown as much. I only saw maybe 2-3 of the top 10 during the whole week of voting. It would be nice if there was a way to make sure all entries are seen equally as much, to be fair.

On one hand, I did a lot worse than I hoped, so <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />
On the other hand, we pretty much all got the same prize anyway, so yaywhocares

OMG, I so didn't know the comb was transformable until I posted on the boards. So glad it is, that's cool! Congrats to all.
Two Edwards. xD
Anywho, I love the prizes! And I'm glad the hair is transformable. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_happy.gif" border="0" />

#167 isn't too bad. Yay Beetlejuice <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />
My Mount Everest ranked 251. 8'D I'm supremely pleased with that result.

Congrats to everyone! Though for some weird unexplainable reason my image didn't save so my entry showed up blank? So yay for me for being last place!! lol! I still got the wig though! BWAHAHAHAHA!!!
#329 is okay <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
awesome cosplays :=)

I think it's weird you guys never saw any of the top 10. I'm pretty sure I saw at least half if not more and also voted for them too. -shrug-
I do however think that next year they should try 4 entries, along with a none of the above option, just so more avatars have a higher chance of being seen.
Congrats to all us top 10 winners! : )

I'm really happy at being #61, I thought I would do worse <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" /> As for the voting, I never got to see any of the top 10 during my voting, but they deserved the win, especially the Duckula and the Oompa Loompa!
When voting ended, before results were posted the contest page said "We are now judging the costumes, and the winners will be posted soon!" (Direct quote c&p from there.)
What does that mean? Weren't we (the players) the judges? Or was there judging behind the scenes after we were all finished voting? idgi

I'm on Page 21, 4th best Micheal Jackson outfit (the best one I actually could've pulled off, which makes me upset in a ironic way...no big deal), but I'll say this: I only saw about 10% of the people who got in the top 100 places, if not less. But the winners are SO different from the EpicCon winners, that it's hard to say if this voting method was better or worse then EpicCon. The EpicCon was good cause you can see more of the contestants at one time. What would be neat is to do a vote of the people who did the same all in one spot.
Good results anyway, I like my prize, cool Wig.

Well, as expected, I did bad. OH WELL, I GOT A GREAT WIG ITEM THAT'S TRANSFORMABLE SO I DIDN'T HAVE TO SPEND MY ALREADY-RUNNING-OUT SP ON THE ITEM I ACTUALLY WANTED AND APRJAGH;S I LOVE YOU, SUBETA.
Ahem.
Ahem.
416...not too bad I suppose <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
Anyone know which of the prizes went to which of the places?

@Pandora well it is infact a cosplay/costume contest <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_shocked.gif" border="0" /> and Epicon was too. and we got to vote. and now you get a place, so its quite alike. so i was just wondering, thats all. no harm done. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
Congrats. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />
I'm happy with my.. 1300 something spot. :3
Seems like one should have had a reference picture though. Argh.

@Dragowing
This was completely unrelated to Epicon, so I highly doubt there will be any points awarded lol.

So many awesome avvies I never saw XD and a few I voted for <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_happy.gif" border="0" /> Congrats to the winners!

Page 42. not that bad. could have been worse was aiming for top 25. oh well better next time! <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /> what exactly was this contest for? what do the winners get? and will these points be converted into EPICon points? <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" /> Or do we not get any points at all ^^
I really don't get what people are talking about. There are no bad entries in the top 10 or even top 100. I think <a href="/users/Malefiz" rel="Malefiz"><img src="http://images.subeta.net/icons/gold.gif" border="0">Malefiz</a> should have won though! Epic Duckula <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />
Lots of Harry Potter characters, Jokers and Disney villain doubles. It's nice to see several different takes on the same character though.
Sad to see the ones at the end, hexes and blank images that didn't show up robbed some people of a chance <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />

#1065? Yay, not that bad. But I only saw 1 from the top 10 during voting. Oh well.
Congrats <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />

I didn't see the most of them... and I can't believe that wearing a whole Trunk makes a better Place than a lot of originel others like Georgies Jesus... ;_;
new ways to earn credits? did you sneak in my pyramid and look at my wish list? hehehe afew videos and a medal is mine
Congrats winners!
I do think there should have been more to the contest, though. Voting between two at first is a good idea. But there should have been another phase to vote for the people with more votes in the first round. I'm just saying, sometimes I had a choice between a 'meh' costume and a pile of vomit, so obviously I am going to vote for the 'meh' one. Sure, I could skip voting, but if I did I would have rarely voted <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" /> (I didn't enter the contest, for what it's worth)

I am not sure how people can confuse Jack Sparrow with Davy Jones. For those of you who think that Pirate is in fact a Johnny Depp cos-play, you would sadly be mistaken.
Great Job! Top 10 <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_happy.gif" border="0" />

I especially love the oompa loompa and the headless horseman. XD Buuut yeah, I don't know about this system. Forcing you to pick between 2 that are often equally good or equally bad is not as accurate as letting you choose one (or.. maybe more than one?) from many, where there is always bound to be at least one you really like.
#1408 ffff <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" />
I barely saw any of the entries that won!
I wish I had though, because I kept on clicking the 'neither avatar' button <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sigh.gif" border="0" />
Anyways, I got #1848. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />

CONGRATS TO THE TOP 10. <a href="/users/bean" rel="bean"><img src="http://images.subeta.net/icons/staff.gif" border="0">bean</a> you look amazing!
I'm really disappointed with quite a few of the entries outside of the top 10 . If I had known all I had to do was throw 5 items with the word bloody in them, I would have. XD

Loved Chime's - only one I saw of the top few was Shrike's (definitely voted) <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />
