Hey, they're finally here!

3rd Place -
Gloomier

2nd Place -
Koopster

Wavee


Congratulations to the winners, and even to those who didn't win, we really enjoyed seeing the layouts you guys were able to come up with.

Get a more detailed breakdown of the scores (with comments) here.

Lightvayne edit: Forgot to give this to K3 last night.
The winner of the User vote was:
Gloomier!


Prizes will be distributed to the winners soon. Thanks for entering, everyone! #wario{:peace:}
good i didn't win

e: did pretty good, pretty good. I'm satisfied and the most important thing is that nobody tested it in IE so L O L
Wow didn't expect to beat Gloomier lol. Good job to him and Wavee, absolutely love both of your entries. And nice job to all who entered too!

Also where are the user voting results?

EDIT: damn, I didn't expect RanAS to be that low
It's easily the best thing I've done
So why the empty numb?
whoa almost a perfect score neat

smh @k3fka tho #wario{>:|}

this was a fun contest though please do more
so I can win more gold trophies ;)))))
Congrats yall, I'm glad I didn't enter and steal first place, gotta share some happiness you know #smw{:TUP:}
Your layout has been removed.

The only thing you got docked for was the same thing as the guy before you; the dead space under the post layout on small posts.

That'd only show up for Staff Members because of the QP Menu and stuff, so I felt it wasn't worth extending my layout vertically more just so it'd look perfect for only 40 people in the whole site. RIP 2nd place. #wario{>:|}

But eh, at least I get the coolest badge of the bunch: (which btw I designed) ;)



So yep, me right now at you b*tches.

#wario{B)}
>no participation badge
brb killing myself
I actually did better than I expected for my first layout, which is already enough to satisfy me. Though, I do have to agree with the judges here, the colors were a bit too clashy. Anyway, congratulations to the winners and everyone else who took the time to make a layout (excluding M A R I O W O R L D). I really hope we have another contest like this sometime next year, maybe I'll make the best layout. #tb{:p}

>4th place
at least i beat idol!

either way the dead space under the post box was intentional because i wanted to show off my spooky scary skeletons. If minimalism and my code box were my downfall, then I can live with that. Congrats to the winners etc
I was positive Gloomier was going to win

ask me if i give a f*ck...

Damn, son

I still like Koopster's a lot because of its cleaner look and less distractions
5th place isn't too bad imo, although I didn't expect to score the way I did. I recognize I could've done some small tweaks in my layout, one of these referring to how out of place my code box was, but that's mostly because I'm used to seeing it green anyway lol. It was really fun to join this sort of contest, and here's to more contests like this!

Congrats to the winners and good job to all who entered too (Wavee's and Gloomier's entries were some of my personal favorites).

Are the functionality scores being almost all zero intentional btw?
Windowless ride, feeling alive
Are you alive or just breathing?
Functionality worked in a deduction system. Basically, if your layout breaks in any of the more popular browsers you get score deductions.

Nah I was sure I wouldn't beat Wavee's because of its neat effects (although a bit too distracting imo).

This is scarier than your layout tbh

Congrats though, your layouts were all looking pretty spooky to me but I forgot to vote #wario{:/}

Just an obligatory meme pic for my 1337th post. ;)

Yeah I forgot to hand off the User voting results to K3fka before I headed out for the night x_x

Either way, the winner for the User Voting is....

CHECK THE FIRST POST! :D
Layout by LDA during C3.
tfw he gets to draw a trophy for himself
It's easily the best thing I've done
So why the empty numb?
I forgot to include this in a previous post: I'd like to clarify that these badges have been done since Monday or so, and that's about when I delivered them to Kieran, so there was no rigging on their designs when the results were announced whatsoever. The boo poses were chosen like that for these badges so they'd match the HLDC ones, purely for consistency purposes.

By the way whoa I wasn't expecting to win the user voting! I thought Wavee's layout was the more popular one all along. Thanks everyone, I love all of you! <3

I still preferred yours more than Wavee's (though that one would've been a close third behind my own layout). I really loved the colour scheme and all the borders and noise all look really good. but im also a sucker for beige and purple so.
oh well! #wario{:)}
ask me if i give a f*ck...
wheres my trophy tho #wario{-_-?} #wario{-_-?} #wario{-_-?}
Kieran is getting some moderators ready to handle trophy distribution, so yeah it shouldn't take long.
