A battle of wills!

[The3p1cN3cr0p4th]

Well... Here we are guys, for those of you who don't already know we have a new member among us who goes by the name Necro3113... Now we've gotten into a bit of a debate as to our usernames but we've decided to settle like men. And women. And women who dress like men. ENOUGH EXPOSITORY BANTER!

WITH A BATTLE OF PHOTOSHOP WILLS!

As described by Proximately here are the rules of this engagement:

I suggest the following. Both of you draw/photoshop one picture each, upload and publish it here and I'll be the judge of who wins. I'll be giving scores based on creativity and the impact the picture has. It should be screaming "KNOCKOUT" (without the word in the picture).

Entries are due... 2 weeks from now, on the 13th of July.

Now of course this is meant to be as fair *coughbiasedformecough* as possible so I thought you all should join in on the judging. As soon as both entries are up I'll add a poll and you guys will decide who should... Do... Something somewhat embarrassing since they lost.

BWAHAHAHA! Let the battle commence!

[Cookies]

Sounds awesome!

[Proximately]

Very well, I'll also direct people from the IRC here once the submissions are up.

[Kirby1112]

Seems like a pretty interesting idea. :3

[ArgyleNinja]

So...What? It's NOT a thing to decide who keeps their name?

[The3p1cN3cr0p4th]

Originally I had the idea that it would be, but... He's a newcomer >_> I don't know if he's a noob or if he's a photoshop genius...

I'd rather not take the chance -_-

[Kirby1112]

Maybe the embarrassing thing will be changing their name to something embarrassing. :3

[The3p1cN3cr0p4th]

>_> Nah, I'm n3cr0p4th I always have been, I won't force necro to change his username either... The punishment for failure will be.... Something embarrassing which still eludes me...

Eternal shame knowing that he got pwn't be me? But then again it's alright to lose to the master....

[Repliica]

The punishment should be a lul avatar.. made by the winner. >:]

[The3p1cN3cr0p4th]

Bumping for attention, also Necro if you're ready to post your entry then I'm game as well.

[The3p1cN3cr0p4th]

[Proximately]

<.<
Hmm... Well... To be honest... .____.
Err...
I think Nero3113 has more of a "Ha, ha. Pwned!" feel to it than the boxer from you N3cr0.

Proximately's vote: Nero3113

Don't be hatin'. T___T

[Necro3113]

sweet xD 1 vote already

[The3p1cN3cr0p4th]

The contest will end as soon as I have more votes than Necro :3

[Necro3113]

lmao no there must be a limit... say.... a week from today?.. the 22nd?

deal?

and what u think? u like it?

[The3p1cN3cr0p4th]

Eh, k. 22nd it is.

Still I thought the focus was supposed to be on the shoop not the KO... And anyway yours doesn't scream KO the way mine does OHKO...

[Fenrir7]

i vote Necro3113

[The3p1cN3cr0p4th]

My pride just got itself guillotined.

:[

[Fenrir7]

sorry but i ageed with proxim, Necro3113's entry was a bit more creative and a little humorous effect more than a boxer named Mac :o

[Amphoric]

I loled at Necro3113's entry but gotta give it to necropath since its a pretty good signature

[The3p1cN3cr0p4th]

I can't say I've seen you around the forums... *looks at sig*

O hai formerly-BEYNd >_______>

[Repliica]

I thought Proxy gave the verdict? :3 well if that's not the case then I'll just go ahead and vote.

and my vote goes to The3p1cN3cr0p4th - It's a lovely piece of work and the theme is knockout.. the other picture just screams of death D: Though I did like the Golbez addition.. it made me giggle :P

Anyway Necro you get a vote and I would explain why a little more, if my head didn't feel like it would explode. D:

[Proximately]

I think Necro3113 has the knockout effect in that it suggests he's so powerful he doesn't even need to punch anyone. N3cr0's picture is too still to get much effect out from the punch that's supposedly in it. I feel like Mac is posing rather than punching, some more speed and the feeling of either punching the screen or someone at all and you would have gotten my vote. ^^

i do agree that his entry was great but its one of the usually-proffesional artwork you see in the graphics section,so i thought that its nothing noticebly different from what i see (no offense,just constructive critisism).i saw Necro3113's entry a good change from that and it used a different style then what im used to seeing

[Proximately]

Plus. This isn't a straight forward graphic contest. :P It just has to "knock out" the opponent in a nice way and while Necro may not have any punches in his picture it really pushes down on the opponent. The knock-out effect in it is that he raises himself as some kind of fighting deity and makes the assumption that his awesomeness makes the enemy step down on sight. :P

[The3p1cN3cr0p4th]

Oh wait... That was HIM as Cloud?

Meh, arrogance has it's blind spots :P

[Necro3113]

thanks for the votes i need to say that i actually didnt know what to do for this contest. i didnt even think it through. eventually it all came together and i actually laughed at it myself with the final peice.

but i am proud of what i made since i cant really photoshop all that well

^^

In my opinion: In terms of creativity/humor, Necro wins. In terms of sheer graphicking skills, Mr. 13375p34k wins (because it's cleaner and easier to look at). So take that as my vote, depending on what category matters the most. =p


...What? You still want an overall vote from me? Fine... Well... I guess I'll be voting for Mr. 13375p34k then.

(I can't give much CC right now because I'm in a hurry)

[Knocking_you_all_down]

I'll go with The3p1cN3cr0p4th.

[Necro3113]

:(

oh well... guess i'm losing
guess am not surprised since i'm no good at photoshop

If I had to go by what you said first you'd be voting for Necro. I really don't want this to be a "who's best at photoshop" contest since that would be a taaaaaaaaaaad unfair.
