What!

The Friday Fashion Contest is a Costume Contest held weekly in Echo Plaza 😄 The total prize pool can range from anywhere between 100 Million to over 1 Billion Influence!!! (Special events may go even higher!)

 

When!

It happens every Friday at 19:00 (7pm) Eastern time! (Just after the daily Hamidon raid in the Abyss)

 

Where!

On the Excelsior Server - In the lovely and golden Echo Plaza! (You get get here from the tunnel portals)

 

Why!

The Costume Creator is such an amazing tool in this game that gets ignore by a lot of players once a character is made (Plus I only have 1 toon so I need to spend my influence on something!)

 

Who!

You! Anyone is allowed to enter you just need to be able to get to Echo Plaza which is accessed through a tunnel portal!

FAQ:

 

"Is there anyway I can help out?"
If you want to help judge a contest you just need to ask any member of the Elysian Guardians SG to invite you, if you can't find us at a time before the contest you can always message one of us then (I will defo be there of course!) If you do not want to judge but want to help another way you can always donate to the prize pool. If you wish to donate you can do so by emailing me (Global is @Laucianna)
MAKE SURE TO SEND A TEST EMAIL FIRST!
Donations are 100% not expected or needed to enter, they will just help raise the Prize pool to the cap of 1 Billion inf (Unless a special event)

"How do you decide on each theme for the week?"

On our Discord we have a suggestions tab for anyone to make a theme suggestion and around Monday-Tuesday I will start a vote on the top suggested themes, the winner of the vote is the theme for the week!

 

"Discord?"

https://discord.gg/3deQdRudtZ

A few rules:

 

 - No Copyrighted costumes, the GMs do not like it and I do not want to endorse it (Get creative ❤️) 

 

 - If you enter on a toon in the "Elysian Guardians" SG (The SG that hosts it XD) We will not be able to vote on you as it would look like favouritism.

 

 - Do not be rude to other contestants, if I see someone saying something mean about another contestants costume you may be excluded from the votes.

 

But most of all:

Have fun! This isn't meant to be a way to earn lots of influence or try to even win, this is meant to be an event for people to show off their costume making skills and help inspire others to do the same! (We all started in the pre generated costumes at some point 😄)
 

How we actually judge:

 

Just to make the process clear on how it works so there's no confusion I thought I would explain the process of how judging works ❤️

 - Step 1 - Judging - 
Once judging has begun the judges of the day will begin their walk around the costumes, picking out their top 5 picks based on the theme selected for that week.

 - Step 2 - MATH - 
Once the judges have their top 5 they send them to me, where their first pick will get 5 points and a secured place as honorary if not higher! The second pick will get 4 points, third 3 points, fourth 2 points, fifth 1 point.

 

 - Step 3 - Totals - 

Once all the judges have their vote in I will total them up and the person who has the most points gets first! Same with second and third.

 - Step 4 - Announcements - 
That's it! I then call out the honorary winners and the top 3 of the day ❤️

I fully support this event. I have entered many, and recently even joined CW because My Keldian needed a home other than my guild of self.  I am looking forward to Friday, and may or may not be able to join. Depends on my work/post work spoons.

Hi everyone... 🙂
   As a non-tentacled member of the CW, I just want to say that not only is this SG great, but also that GL, Maya, and others in it are great people here as well, that do a lot for the community in general, such as hosting this Costume Contest every Friday after the Speed Hami run, leading the 2pm central time MSR most times (way to go Taco Maya!!! Can you say Taco? Sure you can!!! 😄), and generally being awesome in support of bring fun and helpfulness to all of us. If T'rel wore a hat, I would tip it to them... 🙂

[Laucianna]

Heads up all: This Fridays Fashion Contest theme will be "Wild West"! It will be in Atlas park under the statue on Homecoming - Excelsior, and the time will be at midnight UK Time!!

[BjorJlen]

Heck yeah! And I am thinking the next one will be just as good too... 😉

[Tacheyon]

I find it ironic that I couldn't make it to this Western CC because of work being super busy due to the Calgary Stampede, The Greatest Outdoor show on Earth.

 

But there were plenty of great costumes from the looks of it.

[Laucianna]

Heads up all: This Fridays Fashion Contest theme will be "Spandex & Tights"!

[BjorJlen]

Oh boy, let's hear it for superhero athletic wear! 🙂 Me thinks that this contest is going to be a BIG one, and super hard for us to judge lol. So hear ye, hear ye! To all you heroes (and villains) out there... put on your best and show us and the world what ya got! And good luck to all of you, because me thinks everyone is gonna have some great competition this Friday!!! 😁

[BjorJlen]

Bump... 🙂

   And remember folks, today's Costume Contest theme is Spandex & Tights, so please bring your best tights to the party! And I hope to see you, yes YOU, there... 😁

[Herotu]

Circus Strongman would have won it for me. A simple but brilliant take on the theme. Sadly I didn't get a picture 😞

These were the honourable mentions. ❤️

Was a huge turn out for this one so a lot of the amazing costumes sadly didn't get picked 😞

I think this was the largest turnout honestly, so many people that people were not rendering in until close at times.
