Quick question—
Did you like the collab idea? And if so, are y'all up for doing collaboration contest once every month? Tell me here.
Also, I must put this out there. When you signed up for this contest, YOU signed up to be active, to work equally with a partner in this. When I get told multiple times over that a partner NEVER responded, nor helped— guys, it pushed me over the edge. And so now you must suffer through this.
The whole point of this contest was to work with someone, perhaps get out of your comfort zone and to try something new. It was a COLLABORATION. You should know what that means before you sign up. Or must I define it? Y'all— don't sign up if you don't have time for it. It's not fair to me, OR YOUR PARTNER.
Tell me this, how exactly would you feel, if you were given an assignment only to be completed together, and now you cannot do it— simply because your partner gave up, or suddenly went on a hiatus? What does it feel like to be ignored in the first place, or feeling like you did something wrong? Because you were active and suddenly you aren't. Some people don't know what it feels like and it shows.
For this, I'd like everyone to give some love to Lostsoul2008. She went through multiple partners, and still had the dedication to complete the team effort herself. And NO, you do not get to tell me that making a cover is easy, because this was not the point of the contest, nor is the process of graphics easy. Let's applaud Lostsoul2008 because she continues to keep her head high, and I admire her for that.
And while we're on the subject, DO NOT, ever again (ANYONE) message me, telling me how I should have placed the contest. I'm so DoNe with that! I'm the host, you do NOT make the decisions, and mine will be final. Period.
Long story short, if these acts continue, I will be creating a blacklist— and I'm not afraid to put your @ under it. Call me cruel, but this is frustrating.
Okay— results. (If you actually read through my rant above, ty!)
Prompt A creations that STOOD OUT:
@mishmash_nargles & iamsayad
LaneTrivett & @Blondie_X_girlie
_MidnightBlues_ & @heymian
Prompt B creations that STOOD OUT:
@Itzoffixial & xoXflowerisabelXox
After careful evaluation, I chose xoXflowerisabelXox & Itzoffixial's cover, and _MidnightBlues_ & @heymian's cover to make it to the top TWO.
BOTH of these covers were STUNNING. You hit the prompt on the nose, and I just feel both teams basically had no mistakes. But obviously, I must make a choice. And with that, I placed "little midnight" second, and "war zone" first.
The war zone cover, has been on my mind since I saw it. The way it's made, is so exotic, and unique and attractive— the list could go on. I mean?! Ahhh, it's SO beautiful.
Thank you for participating. Answer the question at the beginning of the chapter, and pm me for prizes. (Those who ask for prizes should only be the final two.)
