Whoa, where's Khold when you need him

[Kevin Birtcher]

If he can stop playing TF2 long enough to work on art.

Video games are the worst thing that can happen to an artist.

Truth!


(especially when you start playing them somewhat competitively)

Pft... WEAKLINGS! I have 2 level 80s on WoW and raid on there but dammit I get comics done. You guys just need time management skills to still play games as well as get stuff done

And yes Pi, you would be eligible as you have no living characters unless I read the rules wrong. The same would go for any people who have just done the SDT and stuff.

Agreee!!!! lvl 90 Raidcharacter on eq2, a void battle and a diploma , time management is all

[Angie]

Yay I'm not the only one for a lot of my friends they have to choose to play games or draw, don't have to choose when you can do both! I think I drew half of one of my battles while leveling fishing on WoW but in most cases of course you're not gonna do them at the same time

But yeah, any newcomers reading this thread you guys should post some links to examples of your work so we know what to expect!

[Orion]

Annnnd done. Okay just posted a journal on DA.

http://orionthemuse.deviantart.com/journal/

Also that connects to my DA account so that is another step down. Still trying to get the design phase done.  

Rockin' Roll!

[Slagglle]

Just to be sure, these aren't deathmatches correct?

[(Pi)]

Nope, this is a totally non-death tournament. If you get accepted to play, you're here to stay.

[DeathlySilent]

Omg YES!!!!! I'm on this .

[Mishi]

I foresaw this and delayed my character entry, which I'm still working on. For realz.

[Sean]

Well I got nothing to lose, time to design a character.

[Puddle]

I'm down for this, be a good way to get back into the void scene.

[Charlie]

I guess I'm going first with this haha. I won't submit to the main page yet, I might try and make some intro comics and/or tweak the descriptions some, but this is as good as it gets for now lol. Assuming we do this the same way as the SDT:

Orange, Luna



Edit: Oh, and as for a link to previous work I was in the SDT with Straps and I have an art topic floating around here somewhere.

[Enef]

Shawn and Dexter, Enef.


Will modify this when more is done.

I've adverted this on my DA - I hope everyone in the universe joins!  Would make the selection process fun

[carlito]

This is SWEET!
I think you should have to NOT DEFAULT to get your character permanent in Void though. Anybody that makes it into the tourney but defaults at any point should not get an auto-in. That would keep this tourney pretty default free.

[AJ 武士龍]

This would be interesting, hope to see more cool OCs like these ones

[Cherubas]

I'll be that guy who everyone knows is either planted in the audience or really dense for restating what he's just been told, but...

We submit a design sheet and a bio and then when July 24th rolls around we're assigned an opponent out of the other design and bio guys for a one week battle? Can it really be that easy?

I actually think this is kind of a good idea, some people might sign up just to get a character in and then default and still keep that character while bypassing everything else. I think its a great idea

*To enter you need to post your character's name and design sheet in this topic and also submit them through the site (You must have an account and be logged in to make a character).... OR YOU AREN'T GETTING IN.

*Entry through the site must have a design sheet, a bio, and some proof or artistic skill.

*You have until July 24th to enter. A month is plenty of time to get your entry ready.

*It is recommended that you read the FAQ and check out the comics competiton in action to get a feel for the site.

New People should pay special attention to the specified requirements for Entry thru site......these are available in the FAQ on the Main Site.....and there are threads elsewhere in the forum for Uploading Files etc.

Well, if someone thinks like that, they're just too lazy to do comics anyway and their score will suffer. Anyway, I think we shouldn't punish new people for defaulting like that. Let's say one nice guy defaulted for reasons beyond not being lazy. He might be awesome and legitimately interested in the site, but since he caught a raw deal, he loses the character he wanted to use.

We should be more welcoming, not punishing.

[Charlie]

Thats a good point! I didn't think of it like that :3

It wouldn't be a punishing thing. The artist could still do a 2 to 4 page intro and submit the character to the site regular style if he defaulted. I wasn't thinking he/she would be banned with that character for good, just wouldn't get an auto-in... but it's your idea, I just thought I'd throw that out there since I personnally hate defaults, hate tournaments that have defaults in them, and thought defaults turned this years SDT into one of the biggest jokes I've pretty much ever seen on Void. Just an idea though. Like I said, I realy do think it's one of the coolest ideas for an event on Void that I've seen!

Eh, we shouldn't overcomplicate it. And not letting them in if they default is a punishing thing. I know they suck, but they happen. Void isn't a job, it's a hobby.

And how was this year's SDT the biggest joke ever?
