It took me forever to even realize there was an end to the game. So it sucks already being last and being at a disadvantage. I hope my other two sections are enough to make up for that.

[C/H/A/N/E/L]

So, for the part 1's, how does this work since Scarlett & I tied?

[mxtthewdelrey]

Best of the Round

Part 1
Chanel & Scarlett

Part 2
All four but Carrie's is my favourite and I think the fact that Carrie and Koko drew theirs puts them at an obvious advantage.

Part 3
Chanel & Carrie

Altogether, I think either Chanel or Carrie should win. Y'all did so well though! I probably would have sucked at this challenge.

[Moonchild]

I don't think drawing should put anyone at an advantage.

[C/H/A/N/E/L]

I kinda felt underwhelmed by Carrie & Koko's part 2's, and I don't mean that to be biased or shady.

If you were going to draw your costume, you have an infinite amount of possibilities. You aren't restricted by choice. You could've created bigger, larger things than you did, opposed to me & Scarlett who chose real-life clothing and were limited by those possibilities.

I just don't think you two pushed it as far as you could've if you were gonna draw your costumes.

hmm, if this was ATRL Song Contest style then the person with the highest score gets 100% so you and Scarlett would both get a 10, and then the other contestants would get a percentage of the highest score, so Carrie's would be 65% (6.5/7) and Koko's would be 49% (4.9/5)

[Moonchild]

Third place will get 5 points and fourth place will get 2 points, according to the challenge post.

I suppose that'd be what would happen, but from the original challenge post:

(1st gets 10 points, 2nd gets 7, 3rd gets 5, and 4th gets 2)

So I wonder if Scarlett & I are both getting 10's, and then Carrie get's a 7 & Koko gets a 5, or if Scarlett & I both get 10's and Carrie gets a 5 and Koko gets a 2, or what.

I do think picking already made images of clothes limits the creativity. I'm very happy with my part 2, it's drag enough without being too large for me to be able to move/dance in.

CitRus, when are the judge's deadlines? :laktiu:

I think you and Scarlett might both get 8.5s (splitting the first and second points half and half), Carrie will get a 5 and Koko will get a 2? maybe?

That seems fair.

[getback]

screw the rules, we will have a top 4 finale

Group Challenges and the Success of their teams

Episode 2: Put A **** In It

TEAM 1
C/H/A/N/E/L
jpow
Tymps (6th)
Sam (7th)
getback (9th)
Dancehall (12th)
jax. (15th)

By far the most successful team from this round, with two contestants left, and three others from the team making the Top Ten and only recently eliminated/quit.

TEAM 2
Moonchild
DivaDown (10th)
DevonRoars (14th)
HausOfJustin (17th)
killer_rose (18th)
wesleywalrus (19th)

Mess @ this whole team being pretty much early eliminations minus queen Moonchild.

TEAM 3
feelslikeadream
mxtthewdelrey (5th)
YSL (8th)
HausofNiko (11th)
MiMiLamb (13th)
Bey_Rihstan (16th)

Pretty successful team. It's weird to think that Bey_rih left such a long time ago but I guess that's because she's been a talking point throughout the whole competition.

Episode 7: Untucked

TEAM 1
Chanel
Scarlett
Carrie
Udders (6th)
Nellie (10th)

Again, easily Team 1 is the most successful team with three of the top four, plus Udders who was only recently eliminated.

TEAM 2
Koko
Carmen (5th)
Essie (7th)
Wilhelmina (8th)
Smarties (9th)

Koko is the only contestant left from Team 2 of "Untucked".

I just don't think you two pushed it as far as you could've if you were gonna draw your costumes.

I know exactly what you mean. I actually misunderstood the rules and thought that we had to provide a single image of the queen in the outfit (not just different articles all separated out), and I figured it would be easier to draw a single outfit that try to Photoshop one together (I'm no PS pro ).

Once I saw the posts though, I realized how many options y'all had by pulling stuff already created in terms of shoes, accessories, etc., and that's an area in which you and Scarlett quite obviously excelled, but in which Koko and I were lacking.

However, I understand why others may see drawing as an 'advantage' simply because of creativity; Koko and I came up with our ideas instead of picking from the millions (trillions?) of dresses/accessories/shoes already created. Creativity has always been a criteria of this game, and it just seems more creative when you do your own work like that. And then of course I have NO idea how long y'all browsed through your options, but it's clear that Koko and I took the time to draw (outline, retrace to make the lines darker, color in, etc. etc.) which shows dedication.

But there are advantages and disadvantages to both sides, so I don't think it's really clear who the winner's gonna be here. I think it's gonna be a really tight race.

[Moonchild]

It requires just as much skill and creativity to work within real limits and assemble a costume as it does to draw one. We put a lot of thought and time into assembling our costumes.

[Moonchild]

I wonder if the question is going to be asked of us.

perched for gina vitis to be invited back to the top 4

Of course, and hopefully you didn't think I was trying to drag y'all or something. I'm just pointing out that the two methods showcase different skills and forms of creativity, but not that one was inherently better than the other.

Maybe CitRu will spin it in a more positive way
