The Ugly Contest: Boarded up.

`apocathary:iconapocathary: reports, November 1, 2007
All ugly things must come to an end:

That's right, The Ugly Contest has closed its doors to entries after a month of gathering the dirty laundry of anyone who wished to throw it at us. This news article is just to give those who have entered a bit of info about how the contest will be judged, and to exhibit those who have entered.

Ugly judgement
The judging will be done by a series of umming and ahhing and long internalised debate by me, *apocathary. Due to the length of some of the pieces, it isn't going to be easy judging this contest. As a result, I am allocating three weeks starting from the 1st of November and ending the 22nd of November. After that, I will organise the activities promised in the prize and post a news article on the 26th announcing the winner and the execution of the prizes.

Ugly entries:

Three weeks??

You could judge three Miss Universe contests, the Men's Olympic Pole Vault, Platform Diving, the Oscar's, and the case of Deviant Art Versus The State of Reasonable Discourse in the United States Supreme Court in a single week.

You're taking THREE WEEKS?

Fine. Just don't blame the subtropical Aussie heat for slowing your brain down.

:D

Behold...a 14-3.5'' pen with impossible to find refills!!!

May the best win, I'm sure it will be a fair judging. Has anyone else noticed that some of these contests seem rigged? Or is it just me...

And you're entitled to your opinion. Unfortunately, such is life, and I don't anticipate being able to do it any faster.

Oops, and it seems I put mwiings in there a couple times. Please everyone note that 'Final Correction' is his/her entry and not 'Nikaah'. That was a stuff up on my part. :blush:
