EVE's Next Portrait Contest
« on: 07 Feb 2011, 12:20 »



Update: New thread due to Adidumbess, link updated.

Some of you probably have already seen the threads, but for those who haven't yet: we've set up a new event - 'yet another' portrait contest, this time though, IC.

All information can be found in the two threads on the eve-o forums, but here are the bullet points:

We will accept only the first 100 portraits to avoid getting too many applications (OOC contest got 700+ apps) and thus a too ginormous workload, as we'll discuss and rate every portrait within our 5-person jury. We might extend the number though, if we can handle more.

Prize money is set to 500mil for the best boy/girl respectively, and probably some smaller prizes for other extraordinary participants.

Aaaand here are the two thread:

Hope this sparked some interest - looking forward to seeing you folks there :)

I liked the old one by the Glamour Bunnies, I don't think there was a price though...

Ye gods!

Revan posts something and I actually agree with it. :eek:
Surely the world is ending.

Actually you are from the community team and are now aware of the issue. Second, this is not moderation discussion because you haven't moderated anything. You are boycoting a legit in character event and forcing an IC event to be held in an ooc forum ( here ) against your own rules.

I mean. I have no intention of taking part but I am baffled as to why the IGS thread got closed.

Because Adida is some sort of odd dev who just cant keep their fingers off doing shit on the forums. We had exactly the same problem with her last time, and this is the second of two threads that i saw today where people were complaining about his/her incompetent mod behavior.

Just hope people haven't lost interest by the time we get this fixed.

If all the judges went for shirtless gay glory with their rating he certainly would, unfortunately I think I'm the only one who does that^^

Sigh, it's like that other time CCP moved some IC thread from the IGS to General Discussion...

Darv isn't around now so I guess I have to update here.

CCP has locked the second thread as well with the following explanation:

Hello Revan Neferis,

First of all, please let me say that we understand how much time and effort went into the preparation of this event. However, we would ask you to use the Events & Gatherings forum section to run it. While we understand the implications related to the rules of your contest, Events & Gatherings is the proper place for all events – including the in-game and/or role-playing ones.

Thank you for your understanding.

Should you wish to create a new thread in the Events & Gatherings forum section instead of the existing one, please feel free to do so. We will lock the old one at your convenience.

I guess it means that we can't do In character events at IGS anymore.

Any of you were communicated of this new policy? Neither did I, thank you very much.

No, I will not host Role Play events at ooc forums.

I have opened a discussion on eve general to check this out

huh, well that seems a bit odd.

looks maybe like you can have a thing entirely in IGS, like the thing for Poreuomai.

Or a thing entirely in Events & Gatherings.

but can't have both, which seems off in a way.

It's not good for getting more people involved, rather than the small handful who look at IGS routinely. :s

No it's not even that.  BTW Poreuomai had links and a main ooc thread at eve out of pod area of the forum too. Precisely the same, ic, IGS, ooc , out of igs.

But again this isn't what concerns me now. This is the catch here:

" Events & Gatherings is the proper place for all events – including the in-game and/or role-playing ones. "


What he is saying is that we can not ( we as role players) do role play events in character at IGS.

Clearly, the Sani Sabik just need to open a modeling agency via an IGS announcement, invite people to send their headshots for consideration, and EvE-mail the applicants details about an event.

Didn't someone do similar about making a holo recently?

Except when you dont want to restrict the audience to IGS readers - this kind of lightweight rp event could attract a lot of new folks to rp.
