Now to all of you, congratulations you were voted best out of 200 entries!

To the top three; Sugerflash, Almalexia and Altair, please send me a pm and I'll explain the way we're getting you your prize.


That leaves but one thing, thanks again to everyone! To all the participants, to the judges, and the warm responses everyone got from the forum members here and definitely not in the least, thanks to Bethesda, for both their support to this and their donation of Prizes.

Sorry for the lateness of this but I just found the thread.

First off I would like to thank the organisers and judges of the competition and to Bethesda for providing the great prizes.

This competition was for me a fun and significant way to mark the long awaited release of Oblivion. It was a great way to get my mind off those worries that so many of us went through such as whether my PC would run the Oblivion or will I be able to get hold of a copy of the game by the weekend to actually have time to play it.

My daily routine for the few weeks the competition ran was to get up, make coffee, check the entries, laugh/cry, go to work, come home, check the entries and forum, go to bed. Thank the nine divines that the game came out or I wouldn’t know now what to do with myself now.

With so many great entries I can’t believe I actually won. I salute each and every one of the contestants, well done everyone. There should be prizes for everybody who entered.

Thanks must go to my girlfriend who when I asked her to make me look like a Khajiit first said “a what?” then took three hours helping me with my make up. Thanks also goes to my friend who lent me the clothes and took the photos for me.

So again thanks to everybody involved.
(If I believed using emotes I would be putting a big grinning smiley face here)








Now Altair,

Altair you came third out of how many entries and just because you didn’t get higher you dismiss the entire competition? A sore loser is one thing but a sore winner?????. I wonder would you still have withdrawn if you had came second?

Ill agree with you there are some surprises in the top ten but then I’m not a judge. The competition was to “Dress up as a citizen or monster of Tamriel” it was up to the 7 competition judges to interpret what that meant when they cast there votes and as the rules state “All decisions of judges are final and cannot be appealed”. Store bought or handmade is a mute point it is what the individual entrants did with those items that mattered.

All the serious entrants in this competition think that their entries are ‘perfect’ or else they wouldn’t have entered, but rather than perfect let’s say as ‘good as we could do’. I can see the flaws in my entry and you should be able to see those in yours.

I am sorry to see that you have withdrawn but I don’t think you should have the right to dictate who your prize goes to. In my opinion it should go to the next entrant on the list “Jov Blackheart (Curse that witch).”
