First off, as you may or may not have noticed from the entries, none of them conflicted in any meaningful way! However, not everybody got 10/10 for Originality! Originality had a second purpose,
don't plagiarize. As such, this may or may not have costed (strange, this isn't a word) you this round.
...in First, by a HUUUUUUUUUEGGE landslide, and a total score of 41.67... axman36!
We then have second... which comes after first! Unfortunately for you, you're still second rate, but that doesn't matter because you're still through! Coming in with a score of 33.00, I present to you... Zakeri!
In third, you ordinary person. Climbing out of the pit with a score of 32.50... Nobu!
And finally, the person who manages to scrape above the line in 4th, with a "measly" score of 31.17... Arashi Kurobara!
That said, the scores look something more or less like this.
- axman36 - 41.67
- Zakeri - 33.00
- Nobu - 32.50
- Arashi - 31.17
- Roukan - 30.00
- Raymoo & Demonbman - 29.83
- Tie hurf durf
- UncertainKitten - 29.50
- theshim - 29.00
- Zengar - 25.50
- Kitten4u - 24.92
- copyright - 13.67
Here's my revi
oews for this round:
theshim's entry; "
SUBMIT" (
source; note that I also repeat the quote one or more times further in) - 25.24 KB
Humor: 8/10; the last panel did it in for me, facial expressions also added.
Originality: 10/10
Misc: 7/10; +1 for self-insulting, +1 for AtA (Appeal to Authority).
Roukanken's entry; "
Sweet Rou and Serela Jeff" (
Source) - 130.13 KB
Humor: 7/10; an interesting edit that managed to grab a giggle or two out of me.
Originality: 7/10; no sources cited (even if it's obvious), the only person to go in with a 5-koma however due to the restrictive nature of the originality field, this doesn't net you any more points but it will give you a bump if it comes to a tie.
Misc: 6/10; +1 for self insulting (this one is indirect but it's definitely there).
Kitten4u's entry; "
Innocent Discovery" (Sources: "Danbooru and
this site") - 1005.95 KB
Humor: 5/10; average / really old, though seeing
represented as Chen in this case definitely made this much better than if it were presented in... almost any other way really.
Originality: 10/10
Misc: 7/10; +2 for managing to just slip through the holes in the rules (this
is a semi-bastard IM challenge; Roukanken had partial abuse in R1 as well but chose not to go through in the end).

The reference to MotK is as follows: I said that to my dad when I was about six or seven, thus it is a reference to a member of the community.Cunning.
Nobu's entry; "
Lunatic Training" (Source: This falls under "artist depiction" in my books) - 80.42 KB
Humor: 9/10; it's scary enough to the point where I can imagine it happening with everybody :ohdear:
Originality 10/10
Misc; 7/10; +1 Rank Bonus, +1 for AtA.
axman36's entry; "
Why I never say who my favorite Touhou character is" (
Source for most character portrayals. See Walfas for the actual image templates. And refer to waifu / powerlevel discussions and other things. CPMC folks too while we're at it) - 503.71 KB
Humor: 8/10; lots of references and on-the-fly one-shots as well. I'm going to also have to admit that for some reason, I can't name
all the people present. A -1 here as well because
in panel 3
should be smiling. Really.
Originality: 10/10
Misc: 6/10;
+1 for self-insulting sorry you don't get that one because it's not
strictly insulting yourself (more along the lines of self-inflicted harm), instead have a +1 for the only person using Walfas
.
Arashi Kurobara's entry; "
Snowball'd" (
Sources [Danbooru warning!] and in-game screenshots of
Soul Blazer / Blader. Also, see Snowball Challenges [
example]) - 210.37 KB
Humor: 6/10; A
bit underwhelming.
.
Originality: 10/10; it was really obscure and I actually took some time finding the connection!
Misc: 6/10; +1 for no words of any sort
anywhere save for the title.

Zakeri's entry; "
Is this Tsundere?" (
Source [true source: SSF4] and
Ebay) - 85.26 KB

This is his first, which came along with a
transcript. And
Source. Anyway!
Humor: 7/10; I... what?
Originality: 10/10
Misc: 6/10; +1 for mind
.

Who's Drunk Right Now" (
Source and various avatars used in the past / present and probably MotK itself) - 111.79 KB
Humor: 7/10; dRUNBK awards! -1 for what seems to be a very cleverly concealed advertisement of sorts. Yes, minus.

UncertainKitten's entry; "
2yy9wtv.jpg" (
Source for a certain image. And
this is the result of what transpired on IRC?) - 161.09 KB
Humor: 8/10; what would've been a "standard" 7 is now an 8 because of the keyboard... a couple of oldies on the keyboard but one certain key is of absolute brilliance :V

Originality: 10/10
Misc: 5/10
Any other judge (Purvis mostly) that wants me to put up their comments just say so and I will.
You may now start slinging insults at various judges for making you lose. You may now start bragging about coming in at a high rank. Oh wait, you always could.
