RE: The PokéBeach Forums Official Monthly Banner Contest!

It just so happened that all the judges were on at the same time, so we got right to work and got everything done for you!

First of all, starting with next months banner contest, you will be able to e-mail your entry to turn it in! Just be sure to put your Beach username and the image into an e-mail and send it to [email protected] This is an alternative method if you feel that your idea might be stolen, or if you would like to privately enter.

Let me explain the scoring system we have implemented for the Pokebeach Monthly Banner Contest. A first place vote is worth 10 points, a second place vote is 7 points, a third place vote is 5 points and an honorable mention is 2 points. So there is a point total based on what we thought, and it balances the competition so that you dont have to have a certain # of votes to win the contest.

Now to the results!

Honorable Mention-Lightning by Jamtok

First Place Champion-Death by Paper PokeMaster

Receiving a unanimous selection as our 1st winner, the judges felt that the concept Paper PokeMaster used was the most creative, and took a different approach to the challenge than everyone else. Not only that, but we felt that he incorporated his theme well into the piece and it came out well. Congrats to Paper PokeMaster for winning the first Official Pokebeach Monthly Banner Contest!

Here are the official results.

Through looking at them all, his was the only one that stood out as one that truly took advantage of the wide open topic of disasters.

Wow. 0.0 I'm amazed that I even placed. Should I post my Diamond FC? It'll be awhile before I can get it, though.
