Hey that would put a smile on your face ;)
Hey, I see Gerbick didn't vote. DOWN WITH THE MOD!!! ;) Then again I may have just overlooked him in the list.
I am actually happy about the names that voted for me. Makes me feel a bit better even though I still lost.
Agreed. At least I did better than last year.Quote:

The polls are open to discourage any would-be cheating that may happen. It's not meant to make anyone feel bad, it's there as a deterrent.
No need to feel bad or hate on someone that didn't vote for you. As far as explanations go, call them critiques and continue... :thumbsup:
I'd just like to say, again, that everyone did a great job in Round 1.....and a huge round of applause to all that participated. Also, I'd like to thank Dricciotti for another prime time event! Long Live The Arena!!!
LOL E, I think, or should I say hope, that everyone was kidding about the hate list. You are seriously to serious about this if you hold a grudge against someone that was voting on an image that could have been created by anyone.
I figured it was all in good fun as well, I was just saying if someone wanted to post up some crits.....well, I'd read them... ;)
...and none of you will guess which image is mine. HA!
there havent been any date changes. Just me getting confused over when round 1 ended.Quote:

Where I'm confused is the post at the beginning of this thread says voting ends on the 6th and the next round starts, but the polls are now open until the 11th?Quote:

LMAO smart ass
flashlight is referring to the date that is listed on every poll:
"This poll will close on 03-11-2007 at 04:37 PM"
I'm sure that date is just something Dri threw in there with the intention to just manually close the polls today.
Is this directed at me? If so, let me try again ;):Quote:

The polls now all indicate they do not end until March 11.
Ehhhwwwhhaaaa???
lets just close the polls now and erase the last two pages:)
My guess is he was always intending to close the polls manually so he didn't pay attention to the "poll ends on" date when posting.Quote:

Fair enough. Sorry for making so much noise!

awesome work indeed.
round 1 done!
way to beat the buzzer on the vote G.
And I agree, this round was very good and had some damn close votes. It took me a good while longer than usual to vote.
There are names next to each image now so see if you guessed right... several of the predictions posted before were off!!!
:yarr:
Here is how the bracket looks now.
(im going to hold off on putting up round 2 stocks in case i made a mistake (like in the past 2 years) and put someone wrong down as winner).
http://www.fourtenmedia.com/DANNY/FK/MM2007/bracket.jpg
i am blown away at the 'who's who' of these images.
ones that suprised me the most were:
Silverx
Rush
Ctranter
Ondraedon
Damn, I missed the voting again. I voted on all the others except group c (m) because I couldn't make up my mind. I was going to give it to Carly, but if Lefteye had done the text a little differently, I would have went with his. That was the toughest one. And I was going to vote for EVPs in that section, also.
And damn again. I was hoping the "Little Red Riding Hood" one was Ondraedan's. I have to go up against the crowd favorite now. F!
Edit: I agree, Lefteye. Silver's the most. Incredibly creative use of the stock.
Awesome.
I need to make that interactive map.
I find it funny that the only two images I thought for sure I knew who made them, I was exactly opposite. I thought ctranter's image for sure was ondraedan, and I thought ondraedan for sure was ctranter's.
Me too, until O thought that CT's was mine.Quote:

well im glad you all liked it
i was a kid lost in a shopping mall not being to ask gerbick and evp for advice on if i should change this or change that. and then when i fisrt checked the voting and davulf was killing me i was depressed and my girlfriend was all consoling me so it was kinda a lose but i win, but now its just win win.
Juju's was a little violent so while both were well done, i think driccoti's was one i enjoyed looking at more.
robbmc must just plain hate me or something to not even try and help me have a chance in the second round.
ondraedan and ctranter's images i had predicted in my head backwards great work by both of them
i'm ready. :mrt:Quote:

Damn i should have known that image was O's...the text was a dead give away!!!!
EVP's image totally threw me off...I initially thought it was ct's.
Nords, now i see why you thought my prediction was funny...
Happy Pixel, I dug your image...too bad you ran up against the King.
Very good job everyone! I'm impressed by everyone's effort and growth over the past year.
no doubt, that had me rolling! :D :D :DQuote:

ct's image was fall-on-my ass good. dayum, just dayum.
i dug genesis's, EVPs/discs79 pairing (wow guys!), >flashl!ght<, the darkness, ondraedan.
and happypixel, your image was amazing. it could have won in almost any other pairing, and certainly deserved more votes.
and who doesn't love clicky's!!!
that was an amazing show of talent...cheers to everyone :) :) :)
To get the full effect from mine, you had to listen Black Rebel Motorcycle Club's son "Ain't No Easy Way" while you looked at it. :D
That's what I was listening when I made it.
that's funny, i was listening to ghostface killah when i made mine :D
Kudos to my opponent and good luck in the later rounds. :)
Dude, did you watch the polls? Oh it was crazy! You nearly made a comeback after I was 10 votes ahead. I think you climbed from 10-19 without me getting a single vote! Why do you think I was so eager for the polls to close ;) a few more hours and your trajectory was to level the mere 3 vote gap and then blow past me! :) Nice work.Quote:

Okay, where are the round 2 stocks??? ;) Seriously, when might we expect them?
Great images all around!
The only complaint I have is picking an image! So many favorites!
My hats off to you ct. Awesome image!
Thanks man; I thought your image rocked! Lookin' forward to us not having to meet next year (or at least not until a later round lol).Quote:

My thoughts:
Best use of stock: TheDevilRidesIn
I think if people kept in mind which stock he used, the voting might have changed. Although squidlips was pretty dope too. I took a while to vote on that pairing.
Other hard votes: natsia & ghostgirl. EVP & discs, and nords & njp3
I promise i'll put you guys on the furthest sides of the bracket next year :thumbsup:
zacaboo..... sick man. although that ink looks amazing no matter what ;)
ct, ond, and creativeinsomnia, fearless, clicky... nice images
MY FAVORITE: onine.
I really like the stock usage and the overall feel of the image. all the text was spot on
second favorite has to be ctranters
