gota question,
Can we/I post our/my "alternate" in the thread *Custom Games Entry* first?
Guess what I'm asking, don't have my entry figure ready but I have my alternate complete. Can I post it first? If I can even post the alternate in the thread.
thanxs......"God I want to win me some boosters!" Jet would be nice too....

That's fine. Each figure needs it's own thread so...
Post a thread with *user's name Custom Games Alternate Entry*
Then when your official entry is ready: Post a thread with *user's name Custom Games Entry*

Official Entry thread as been created. I will update as quickly as possible when new customs get submitted.

Hopefully everything will work out and we'll get a even number of entries. If we don't, I'll randomly select alternates until the bracket is filled.
I got mine finished just need to take some good pictures and send them up...is it against the rules if I have the character reveal his bio in a short dio comic? Either way i'm good, I just had a funny idea I wanted to do.
Also once an entry is posted here first can I post it on OG13, SL? Or do I need to wait until the contest is over. It could drum up more interest. Either way though I'm still good.

A short Dio comic is definitely acceptable. Still do a quick written bio too please. It can be really short if you wish. Post the dio comic in the following post or whatever in the thread.
As for posting it at other sites, that is definitely allowed. The first viewing of the custom must be here though.
Great Questions!
I have few customs ready, not sure which 1 to use, ......"Eeny, meeny, miny, moe"...... WAIT!.... Is there any benefit to posting early?
No real benefit per say, except the critiques. Pick your favorite and a second one, Use your favorite as your Official guaranteed entry and post your second as an Alternate entry.
There's no real benefit to posting early. It's all going to come down to the votes for each round.
I can't wait to check it out! I always get excited when a new entry gets posted.
yeah, I knew I could only do 1 entry. I just was pondering, hate to set the bar, not saying I will.
I would just hate to give someone an incentive to do a better job on theirs.
Also would not want to wait and do an entry that already exist!
As far as picking who Im going to enter, I also have "certain" samurai I may enter. Maybe Ill flip a coin. Guess we can't have to many samurais in the fight! Might have to change the name of this contest to the "Samurai Showdown"

Sweet!!!!
Just a reminder for everyone... All entries need to be posted by November 1st.
My entry is almost finished. Got the head cast I needed at the con. Just need to finish up one of his weapons.
Mine is finally done, just need to snap pics. He already won the Kumite challenge at the con and now he's ready to take this contest as well!!
Great contest guys... but I am a little confused... 
The voting is for the best custom, not for the best/better armed fighter right?
I mean... suppose I did a Jack Sparrow custom ... give him a sword and a pistol, and he enters a fight with a Sith Lord with a light-saber ... my entry should be judged by how cool it looks, not by his hability to win the "real world" fight, right? ...
and sorry if it's too silly or obvious a question ... but I like to play for the win.

Its tough to call how people will vote. The most important thing to think about is it is a public vote. I for one will be taking the bio and ability into consideration as well as the custom when I vote. But like I said, not everyone will vote that way.
Technically he is. Well, technically, it's a custom that I was just working on, and then asked if he would work for this contest and was told yes. I happened to be working on him over the weekend at the F1:18 custom con, and asked Daremo if I could enter him into the Kumite live contest he was having, and he allowed it (I think because there was only 5 other entries). So technically, he was being made just in general, and then made for THIS contest, but I entered him in that contest as a spur of the moment thing. If Monkeywrench wants to DQ him for this contest, that's fine.

The hope is that people will base their votes on both the custom, AND the accompanying bio.
That's what I think is fair too ... what I didn't want to see is people voting JUST because the character in the duel is more powerful and would win the fight ...
Well, unfortunately, we can't force people to look at the whole picture when voting. We want them to take the bio into consideration, but there'd be no way to prevent them from just having their friends vote them through, either. Hopefully, the majority of members on the site that will vote, though, will take everything into account before voting.
