Tournament: The Art Exhibition

[AJK]

Many apologies for my multipost madness :flip:! I'm not a schizophrenic, this forum is torturing me.
The following happened: I make message. I press Post. I get error. I Post again. I rinse. I repeat. I get same errors. Posts show up a day late.
If you can read this message, the forum doesn't hate me anymore.

5. Scharfzahn-Schlachter 2x20 = 40 counted as 25

sorry but sharptooth-slayer is unique monster

newco is correct, Sharptooth Slayer/Scharfzahn-Schlachter (I wonder what that is worth in Scrabble?) is a Super Unique and, therefore, not allowed according to rule 4.

Belgarion, you must replace this one picture before 18:00 GMT for the entry to count.

Edit: AJk: The Forum did go a bit wild yesterday, I think the record was 16 repeat posts that spanned about 3 pages.

Shame on me newco is correct - I apologize for not realizing he was super unique. That means Ugh died because of an error - I fear he's going to be very angry with me :cry:

Fortunately I've got another 24er on hold.
Stachel-Stirn 2x 12 = 24

That makes it 122 points.

Here's the updated score table :

Someone whacked the squid! The forums return to normal (for now).

Seeing the high score of belgarion made me look at this contest from a slightly different perspective:
Milena the sorceress presents *drumroll*

Size doesn't matter, with
Bone Vex
Moon Eye
Sin Fist
Sin Rend
Star Eye

I'll leave the counting to the math wizards among you.

His heroics will long be remembered.

Excellent submission! I was considering this idea for Art Exhibition 2, but it would lead to more difficulties between the different language versions. So I have thought of another theme for later in the year: "Know Your Enemies". I won't give out any details yet, but keep any pictures you may have, they will come in useful

Congratulations to Belgarion for winning both the LNOTW prize with Faulnis-Fetzer and the main prize stash for "How To Kill A Barb" scoring 122 points and leading to the untimely death of Ugh.

Please Post/PM an e-mail address for the stash (I've combined them into one).

I declare the Art Exhibition officially closed. I would like to acknowledge the imagination, humour and willingness of each person who entered to place their characters in danger to get that elusive picture. Thank you all very much for entering my first tournament

See you all for Art Exhibition 2

[Belgarion]

@Atil
PM send.
Thanks for a great idea and for the lovely items my chars will be able to wear.

And of course thanks to faithful Ugh who died such a nasty death. He earned his items the hard way. :wink3:

See you all at the next exhibition.

[AJK]

@Atil: Thanks for this contest! It was a nice entry to these forums and the tournament really tickled my creativity gland. It has also given my Andy runs more purpose than dry MF'ing.

[Tracul]

Best tourney eva! Rock on Atil! Can't wait for the 2nd one.
Gratz Belgarion!

Sorry for the delay in sending you the items. My ISP went down last night and I've only just read your PM (at work). I will send you the stash this evening (from home).

I hope to start Art Exhibition 2 in June/July, once I've collected enough loot for prizes. Unique monsters will again be the focus, but the name length will not be a factor, so all languages will be equal!
