During this round, one judge, in this case Zarbon, will matchup the artists however he sees fit and assign them a theme. In this round, you might not have to make a sig. What you make, the theme, and everything is up to Zarbon (there are limits of course, O Awesome One.) When he creates the threads for the matchups, you will have one week from that date, basically January 16th (my birthday). With that being said, I pass it over to Zarbon.

darknessreign555 [5:48 P.M.]: And, for theme's sake,
darknessreign555 [5:48 P.M.]: it must be under the category for victory.
Darryl315irwin [5:48 P.M.]: ok
darknessreign555 [5:48 P.M.]: As another restriction, it can't be dark, street racing,
Darryl315irwin [5:48 P.M.]: lol
darknessreign555 [5:48 P.M.]: or F-Zero.
Darryl315irwin [5:48 P.M.]: DAMN!
darknessreign555 [5:49 P.M.]: It must fulfill a Mario-esque standard.
darknessreign555 [5:49 P.M.]: Dragon Kart must also be someone on the Wallpaper.
darknessreign555 [5:49 P.M.]: Next:
darknessreign555 [5:49 P.M.]: 18 and Frieza.
darknessreign555 [5:50 P.M.]: I need them to do a sort of a poster.
darknessreign555 [5:50 P.M.]: It reflects that 'Superheroes make mistakes too.'
darknessreign555 [5:50 P.M.]: The theme is to be lighthearted.
darknessreign555 [5:50 P.M.]: Poster size? Not caring.
darknessreign555 [5:50 P.M.]: And by theme, I meant 'feel'

darknessreign555 [5:52 P.M.]: Gohan and Cell Jr.
darknessreign555 [5:52 P.M.]: Similar to Gokua and Cargo's, you'll be doing a wallpaper,
darknessreign555 [5:52 P.M.]: however, it will reflect whatever you want.
darknessreign555 [5:53 P.M.]: Yamcha, Tapion, and Mr. Buu will be doing a sig about whatever they want.
darknessreign555 [5:53 P.M.]: And that's it.
Darryl315irwin [5:55 P.M.]: i like your themes
Darryl315irwin [5:55 P.M.]: good job
darknessreign555 [5:55 P.M.]: Actually,
darknessreign555 [5:55 P.M.]: I'd like to change the last two.
darknessreign555 [5:55 P.M.]: Both will do sigs.
Darryl315irwin [5:55 P.M.]: ok
darknessreign555 [5:56 P.M.]: The top will do one that they consider the greatest sporting event in history.
Darryl315irwin [5:56 P.M.]: k
darknessreign555 [5:56 P.M.]: The bottom three will make a sig worshiping me.
Darryl315irwin [5:56 P.M.]: heh.
Darryl315irwin [5:56 P.M.]: i was waiting for that one
darknessreign555 [5:56 P.M.]: Yeah.
Darryl315irwin [5:56 P.M.]: you should do red mage though
Darryl315irwin [5:56 P.M.]: :-P
darknessreign555 [5:56 P.M.]: Sure.
darknessreign555 [5:56 P.M.]: Worshiping RM.
darknessreign555 [5:56 P.M.]: Good idea.
darknessreign555 [5:57 P.M.]: Inform them that they should research the character a bit.
darknessreign555 [5:57 P.M.]: Ask people.
darknessreign555 [5:57 P.M.]: They'll need it to get a grasp on things.
I'll make threads on this shortly.
January GAOTM: Week 2 - Sol - 01-09-2007
Wha...wha...what?
We all get different themes...? Umm, that seems kinda...stupid. No offense to Zarbon but it's simply unfair to judge a contest where everyone isn't held to the same standards, we should all have to work within the limits of the same theme.
January GAOTM: Week 2 - Jinpo - 01-09-2007
no, you shouldn't.
Then the matchups would be useless.
It mixes it up.
January GAOTM: Week 2 - Grandpa Gohan - 01-09-2007
...
I actually have to second Tapion on this. This isnt battle arena or something, its GAOTM. Blah whatever.
January GAOTM: Week 2 - Alexander Trafford - 01-09-2007
Everyone should have to make a sig for me.

stfu you. Ill probably redo the one I did of you anyhow >_>
January GAOTM: Week 2 - Jinpo - 01-09-2007
The only thing I am thinking about changing are the judges. No offense, but like Burter said, the GAOTM shouldn't be decided by 5 people. I'm thinking . . . ?(
January GAOTM: Week 2 - Shun - 01-09-2007
Make a sig to worship Red Mage? Get the hell out of here. I don't worship anyone in anyway, especially not Red Mage.
GG and Tap are right. This is to see who can make a wallpaper/sig get a theme across while making it look good. Making different themes you cant really judge on that. To me it looks like he was just pulling out random shit from his ass and you guys are trying to make it a contest.
January GAOTM: Week 2 - Jinpo - 01-09-2007
Listen.
First, the rules are not changing, at least during this month's competition.
Second:

Of course you can judge it. Just because they are different themes doesn't mean the judges don't look for the same things. They come into each battle with a the same basic "rubric", just what you are looking at is different. Also, Week 3 involves a non-traditional matchup like week 1, so doing the same thing every week gets old real quick. Lastly, if you can't handle any theme thrown at you, then you don't deserve to be GAOTM. Period. The reason I picked Zarbon to pick the themes is that I knew he would pick challenging ones for everyone. So, meet the challenge to the best of your ability, and who knows, you could be #1.
January GAOTM: Week 2 - Shun - 01-09-2007
No one "deserves" to be in GAOTM we just do it to test ourselves and have fun so don't even try that shit we me. I can easily handle anything Zarbon throws at me but a theme worshiping him or a character he used to be? That's just fucking rediculous. I don't care why you picked Zarbon, I honestly don't give two shits why you picked him bro. You know that's bullshit.
Fuck it though. I'll do it just to see how I'd do up against my buddies Tap an Buu. I just needed to get that off my chest.

I said "be GAOTM", as in winning the competition. By the way, I'm doing this for those exact reasons you stated. I wasn't trying to offend you.
Anyway, I hope to see everyone's best. Good luck to all!
January GAOTM: Week 2 - Shun - 01-10-2007
Oh woh! Read wrong and basically flipped out for no reason.
My bad, Cargo.
January GAOTM: Week 2 - Medraut - 01-10-2007
I'm withdrawing, you may take me out of the standings completely or put me last, do as you see fit.
January GAOTM: Week 2 - Jinpo - 01-10-2007
I'd hope you don't but if you must, the matches would be edited.
Yamcha vs. Gohan
Tapion vs. Mr. Buu
January GAOTM: Week 2 - Medraut - 01-10-2007
I won't be changing my mind, sorry for any inconvience I caused for ya Cargo.
January GAOTM: Week 2 - Shun - 01-10-2007
So I do a great sporting event in history right?

Will this still be under the same theme and such as before? Or will a new one be issuied?
January GAOTM: Week 2 - Grandpa Gohan - 01-10-2007
Cargo: If were gunna do it like this, you need to figure out a differant point system, as it, it sucks when you take it from a group thing and apply it individually.
I know I said this wasn't like SOTW, but it kinda is. In the sense, its really a relaly big SOTW, with selected judges, as opposed to where anyone can vote. Hence, they all have to do the same thing. Also, SOTW wouldnt be as successful as it is if it was "the same thing every week". There are many differant styles and many differant themes, not to mention that we could break it down into C4d, C4d renders, ect. The list goes on.
Zarbon says he can distinguish who's the best when people are doing differant things, and okay, yeah I get that- I can too, when I look at people who're doing the same thing. If you had to compare it to someone else who was doing something completely differant, then no. Why? Cause they didnt do something under the same requirments. You could take the best abstract sig artist and pit him vs. the best grunge sig artist, and ask who was the best, ultimately; it'd come down to which style you like better. This isnt a competition about peoples style, we put up a theme, and they use whatever the hell to obtain that.
That also goes back to the current point system we go by =\
Those are main reasons why I agree w/ Tapion.
Blah blah, whine whine, bitch bitch.

No, its differant theme. See your thread for more deatails.

We don't have a thread for us.
