    ************event postponed*****************

    please be advised that due to unforeseen real life circumstances this event is being postponed until next saturday ( 11th august 2012 @ 21:00ma).


    To everyone who intends to enter, and those coming along to support the event ...mel has asked me to pass on his apologies for the late notification, he has been called into work at very short notice, and will be working through the night, so cannot be here to hold the event.

    Regards

    Thank You to all the participants in this event, all the helpers and those who came to support both the event and their fellow players.....unfortunately we did not have any entrants for the Mk1 class so we had to abandon that round but the following players took part:

    Mk2 Class

    Dark Zunami Angel
    Tomas T79X Hope
    Orpheus Wildcuts Kurosawa
    Anthony Ranger Morris


    Mk3 class

    John Black Knight
    Alaina Bonnie Scotia
    Aerik RuffNTuff Kromwell

    We asked each contestant in the Mk2 class to give a vote out of 10 for the contestants in the Mk3 class, and as no one knew in advance how the voting would take place or who was entering this reduced the chances of anyone influencing the voting, as has been a topic for discussion/contention in previous contests. Therefore the entrants in class 3 could earn a total of up to 30 points, based on the overall look of their pod, taking into account any texturing and or painting.

    The results were as follows:

    in 3rd place with a total of 30/40 points was Aerik
    in 2nd place with a total of 33/40 points was Bonnie
    and the winner with a total of 34/40 was John Black Knight.

    Each won a trophy designed and implemented by Arkadia Studios, based on their respective placing.

    Well Done to you all!!!!

    Then the Class 3 entrants were asked to do the same for the class 2 entrants....therefore the total amount possible to score would be out of 30.

    There was a joint result in this category for 2nd place, and as we had been unable to hold the Mk1 category we decided to have joint 2nd place winners, and the 4th person would then win a bronze trophy for their efforts in participating.

    The results were as follows:

    in 3rd place with a total of 13/30 was Orpheus
    in joint 2nd place with scores of 20/30 were Tomas and Anthony
    and in 1st place with a score of 23/30 was Zunami

    again they each received a trophy respective to their placing.

    NOW ONTO THE MAIN EVENT

    We asked ALL 7 competitors to pose with their pod and their outift, and asked each of their fellow contestants to give a score out of 10 for the overall look, ie the pod, the outfit and how it all looked together. They could therefore earn a total of 60 points each.

    The results were as follows


    in joint 6th place with a total of 26/60 were Tomas and Aerik
    in 5th place with a total of 29/60 was Orpheus
    in 4th place with a total of 33/60 was John Black Knight
    in 3rd place with a total of 46/60 was Zunami
    in 2nd place with a total of 48/60 was Bonnie

    Which means the overall winner of PIMP My POD 2012, with a score of 49/60 was ANTHONY RANGER MORRIS

    We decided to conduct the event in this manner, with each contestant voting for their fellow contestants, as we have seen from previous contests the uproar that happens re friends voting for friends etc...and decided this was the fairest way we could see to do the voting, to ensure as far as possible that it could not be influenced in any way.

    We feel that it worked very well, and all the contestants went away with a prize of some sort....welll done to you all, a great effort all round and thanks for taking the time and effort to participate.

    A big well done to the winner and hope you enjoy your prize.

    Looks like it went really well guys. Quite a clever way to do the voting too.

    I'm going to close the thread now seeing as the results have been posted so as to stop any trouble makers from getting in and starting their nonsense. If you have any pictures you want to post then let me know and I will reopen it for you so you can do it before closing it again. Any questions please PM me.
