Guild Wars 2

Rising Dusk.2408:

I definitely want in! Hit me up in-game if you have planned times you expect to do this so we can coordinate.

Most of us will be on around 7:30-8 EST tonight. I just got a message from another forumite, so I am hoping I won’t have to dual-box the lepers account or bully him into logging in.

I might be around before the others so if you see me feel free to harass me for planning, I’ll keep an eye out for you online too.

On second thoughts,no video for you..

I have a few sexy charr’s and a wild asuran if anyone needs. Let me know! Fashion!

Heyhey.
I was originally planning on holding these cards to reveal on the final day but since you insisted…
Voila!

Sorry it’s not a video. I didn’t think my bandwidth limit would have been very happy if I tried to do that. :c
Equips and dye list for each of us at the end. Hope you like it!

I love it! A perfect way to compile the screens. Very nice!

Tragedy: Our main screenshot taker has gone missing, more screens should be uploaded later, but just in case, here’s the basics.
Background Jennifer (The human)‘s Family worked as servants for Caudecus, they did a fair day’s work for a fair day’s pay, but they loved their little girl, and almost every penny of their earnings was spent on her.. but one day, They went in to work.. and never came back. Seraph reported that they, among other servants, had been kidnapped and it was unlikely they would ever be seen again. Jennifer was devastated, she immediately called her Norn buddy, who eventually made her see through the tears: They were strong fighters, they had friends who are strong fighters, they will get her parents back, it was a promise..

I never realised how tiny my asura is, it just gets lost in some of those screenshots.

Also between disorganisation and the sloppiness of that dungeon I almost had a stroke; actually I totally might have had a stroke and just not known it. You’re lucky you didn’t have to hear me trying to herd cats in vent, herding actual cats would probably have been easier.

Ooookay. So I think I am now closing submissions. I will now study each team and find my winner. And loser. Oddly in this case, there are only 3 entries so I will be adding a second place prize of something. Haven’t figured that out yet. But each team wins something. Yay!

In the time I’m taking to decide I would appreciate you all polling your parties on armors, getting account names, etc so that I can send prizes in one big batch. I will update once I decide on the 2nd place prize and then once I choose the winners. Thank you all for participating!

Edit: I miscounted. There are 4 entries! Huzzah!

Still will be a 2nd place. 3rd place will be the only group not getting something haha. Might be a small consolation prize ^^

Second prize will be a pack of transmutation charges. Consolation prize TBD but will be something.

Okay. Here I go to decide winners.

Because I think this is awesome, I’m going to name each team.

Rising Dusk Team: Slytherin

Cotser Team: Gryffindor

Team Variance: Ravenclaw

DreamAvenue Team: Hufflepuff

I will now delegate points.

Medium and Story

To Ravenclaw, for a clever and enjoyable use of the video medium, I award 10 points. To Hufflepuff, for excellent infographics about fashion, I aware 10 points. To Slytherin, for an amazingly written first person story that made me LOL, I award 10 points. To Gryffindor, for a decently good story and decent screens, I award 5 points. (Not enough screens, brah!)

• Slytherin – 10 points

• Gryffindor– 5 points

• Ravenclaw – 10 points

• Hufflepuff – 10 points

Fashion

Note: The fashion scores will be based on team, out of 20, and I will detail the team’s composition and style.

Ravenclaw

Your Norn demonstrated a lovely use of the Strider armor. The colors also went well together. Your Charr was amazingly cooky looking. I loved the use of the inventor’s glasses. Your Sylvari may have been just a little too green for my personal preference (Ew! Kale!) But I love the eye patch. Human females are easy, but yours did very nicely with a great combination of darkness and elegance. I found your Asura fashion lacking, and while I love the helm and the boots, I feel the combination just doesn’t mesh as well as it ought to.

Score: 16/20

Hufflepuff

Your Sylvari is delightfully creepy as hell. Great choices. Your Asura has a bad taste in helms, but else the colors and gear look decent. I would say, though, that the shoulders do not match the rest as much as I would think it should. But still cute. I’m in love with this Charr. The Inventor’s glasses are again an amazing choice for Charr and his armor combination remarkable. Your human female…. Eh. I hate the Inquest chest piece, and I feel like the glasses are there to make her look smart. Good color choices, but ultimately unremarkable. The Norn female looks like she may just kill me. I love it, but hate it when I can’t see a Norn’s face. She is very BA but I feel like a lot of her beauty might be lost being covered by the Visage of Koda.

Score: 16/20

Slytherin

I love your Norn female. I love the combination and everything about her. Your human female…. I didn’t know CoE chest was in vogue, but it SHOULDN’T be. I do like her colors however. Your Asura steals my heart away. I love the Mohawk and the green and the adorableness. Yay Asura! Your Charr’s Mohawk is amazing but I’m confused as to why he needs an air filtration device! That’s okay though. Your Sylvari looks like a blue tree guardian and I find him nice. This team loses points for not including a summary sheet on what armors they are wearing. However, I feel the fashion is amazing.

Score: 18 16/20

Gryffindor

Ah… Style time. Of course the Norn female is full of win (Perhaps Norn Female new meta?). Her Dyes and daggers and everything is beautiful. The Asura, I love her. The pink goes well. I think these two characters might make up for the disturbing lack of screens. This human female succeeds in being very princess-y, and I appreciate that, but she is so Barbie, I almost want to cry. She’s very pretty though, and I like the use of the Masquerade leggings even if I disapprove of their existence. The top hat Charr is purrfect, of course, and there’s not much more to say about him. Your Sylvari (which you left out of the armor descriptions) from afar looks decent but there really wasn’t a good enough screen of her.

Score: 12/20

Scores:

• Slytherin – 10 points + 16 points = 26 points

• Gryffindor– 5 points + 12 points = 17 points

• Ravenclaw – 10 points + 16 points = 26 points

• Hufflepuff – 10 points + 16 points = 26 points

Miscellaneous

Ravenclaw gets 3 points for being the only team to post their entry before the original ending date. Gryffindor gets 1 point for using Lilith’s likeness. Hufflepuff gets 2 points for attempting a high level dungeon. Slytherin gets 3 points for roleplaying and being in spirit of the sport.

frantic whispers around the great hall “Ravenclaw is tied with Slytherin!”

I now award the final point value, to Scaericharr’s bravery in helping his group, because while it may take an enormous amount of courage to stand up to one’s enemies, it’s even more impressive to stand up to one’s secretly evil plant lady guide. Also for use of the word “asplosions”.

Slytherin wins!

WE LOST /dance
I mean technically we still win.

By the way I’m never talking to you again Lilith.

I hope all are correct…

I think maybe people were intimidated by having to get an entire group of fashionable people together.

I was the asura on Team Slytherin, I can’t speak for Rising Dusk but I can get together the responses from the other 3 people and I’ll post their armor combos when I hear back. I’m internet bullying them now so it shouldn’t be long.

P.S: Why can’t we be GoT houses? In the GoT you’re fashionable or you die (might need to come up with a fabulous word that starts with T).

There were only 4 entries there are like… a bazillion (9) houses for got.

Which armor set are you going to want Laar?

Strider, it’s probably the last one I like that I don’t have; gotta stock up on those good looking armors if I am ever convinced to reroll something to follow that human female meta.

Seriously NEVER AGAIN lilith

YAY SCAERICHARR!! \o/

I’ll submit a list of our group’s members to you, Lilith, when I get home from work today. As a side note, Scaericharr’s mask isn’t an air filtration device, it’s his MUZZLE. I’ll have to send you a screenshot of his teeth; it’ll make perfect sense after you see that. (He has a hard time not slobbering, so it’s just safer for everyone involved this way)

Never what huh why?

I made nice compliments about your norn. Lol I don’t know why you’re mad xD

My only regret is that we didn’t win.

Laar is such an internet bully. I’m being badgered to make a decision, while at work. And hey, with a name like Curvsaplenty, I went for the CoE chest, due to it being the breast best representation, but being vogue (SHOULD) is great too It was a closely scored contest though, and was fun to participate in, so thanks for organizing it, Lilith!

My team all owes me extra loves for the wonderful story Scaericharr shared with everyone!!

(I love RPing as that character lol)

I was the norn female on the “slytherin” team. I must say thanks for the comments on my fashion. Laar and I spend a lot of time on fashion and it is fun to do stuff like this. I also owe her for her keen eye in helping guide me. Also a huge shout out to rising duck for helping us get our 5th and coming thru with that great RP story. Hope to be in many more of these contests.

I’m happy you liked my little pink asura ^^
