Official ENTM-GD thread! 2.0

Had a lot of fun this round and to be 1000% honest my shot was a last minute entry. I couldn't come up with ANYTHING I liked and thought was presentable and finally in the last 15min or so mine popped up and I couldn't have been more happy.

Anyway I thought I'd share some alternate shots I got that I almost submitted instead-

WOW! ALMOST ANY of those shots preferred over the one you submitted and you would have made my top 3 when voting, they're so well done and so dynamic! I really love the fighting ones!

These were going to be the shots that I would have submitted this round :x

I recognize the location of that bottom one, Epsil. ;D Beautiful as usual.

Thanks for the feedback, Marik! I almost completely obscured my face because that seems to be how all of the Garlean superior officers' armor is; showing pretty much zero skin. I tried to make use of my remaining face flesh by smirking. ^_^'

These two pics are much stronger and I can appreciate the setting more from them! The second is a bit on the dark side though, so the first one would be better.

This looks amazing!!!!!!!!

Judge's Emails have been sent out! YT2 has started! This is not a drill people!!!!!!!

((If I haven't heard from my Judges in 48 hours, I will start casting new ones. ><; So if you know any of them, please send them a tell in game! Morina, Flare, Raquelle, Nariko, and Adam! Tinsley has already replied to my email and I am sure Tyriont will see it when he wakes up. It is...4am after all xD))

If the structures in the back were more visible, I totally would have submitted it. ;)

That needs a caption like "They laughed at my shortness. I laughed at their screams."

...I hate you soo very much for choosing that theme for the Round 2 shots, Rongi.

You and me both Adam... I'm really worried about that round.

Why?? xDDDD

It's EMBARRASSING! That's why~! We can also maybe blame Tyriont, because he probably gave Rongi the idea.

But I thought it was fun...*pushes rock with foot looking sullen*

I agree with you! It was super fun!

I think After the party I'll start working on another photoshoot project. An idea I got from Adeline. It's been slowly cooking ever since she said that one sentence almost in passing...

Ohoho I'm excited to see!

One Judge has already sent in their COOs for up to Round 6! You other 6 judges are SLACKIN! xD

I still havent heard from 2 of the Judges, so I will possibly be looking for replacements soon. ><;

*watches Adam flip the table for having to draw more judges for the judges' table*

(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

The main problem is that only my portrait has been drawn. I don't even have any reference for the other judges.

/).<)
*facepalm*

Come on judges! You don't want to keep all these model wannabes waiting do you? The longer YOU take the more pain and anxiety you cause us! You don't want to do that, do you? It's not nice to do that! You wouldn't do that, would you? You're not evil are you?
*puppy eyes*

No, I told the Judges specifically to wait to see what the Judges Table looks like before they submit any pictures so that they can coordinate an outfit to match it.

Once Adam has submitted the Judges table to me, the other 6 judges will submit their pictures to him to draw. :D

Adam isn't drawing the Judges into the judges table. Those are gonna be ingame images. Adam is drawing the Speech Bubbles that pop up when Judges talk.

Hee, hee~

I'm just kidding, little Rongi. I know that. Sorry for repeated delays on the table, irl stuff is catching up with me pretty quickly.

No no, take your time! I like watching the models squirm!! >:-))))))

Judge #1 COMPLETE! :D

I hope you teasing...lol XD

I've been on both sides now, a model and a judge, both are very high pressure. How can I make this shot work, will the judges like it vs How do I judge this fairly, will my critique be kind and helpful at the same time

Judges take your time! Models wouldn't want to be rushed having to take their pics, so y'all take your time with the judging panel~! Also Adam, thanks for all the extra work that you're doing making all of the art for the cycle. I know you have a lot going in IRL, and I think it's awesome that you're still doing so much for ENTM!

I can't wait to see the first episode, but no pressure from me. I can wait until everyone feels they have it perfect~! <3

^this, very much. I said it in skype chat and I'll say it here again: Don't pester the judges. <.< Nobody bothered us models during our shooting time. The ones that finished quicker than others did not tell them to hurry it up so the deadline could be pushed forward. We had several last day hand-ins and that was FINE. It's what a deadline is about. Why should judges be treated differently? Even if the judges were quick, Rongi said he wants to put most episodes together before he starts publishing, so there is waiting time anyways.
We're all exited, but why not channel that energy into something productive? I just spent an hour making something at Rongi's request so he has an easier time. And I got 2 projects tied to screenshots and ENTM, not to mention other projects outside this community. I'm hyped but I'm also keeping myself plenty busy. o_o

Aww thanks, lol - Not trying to be awesome just fair. I try to go by the idea of 'treat others how you would want to be treated', so I try and be nice/fair to everyone. I think what I love about this ENTM family is we all try really hard to respect and support one another~! It's how it should be. :)

lol I know what ya mean - got a few things I wanna get done before 3.0 - finally got my BLM Zeta~! *does a lil dance* Now I wanna get my NIN to 50, and all I want in life is my Garuda Pony... *rolls around cursing the RNG Gods* Whhhhhhhy... it's green, I need it in my life! XD

Also need the Ramuh pony, cuz dat song tho... >.<

The only reason I finished my list for YT2 last night was because I had A LOT of time to put towards the lists. I'm a terrible procrastinator. Plus all 14 of the YT models did very well, it was hard ordering them some rounds.

Edit: You never know how hard judging is till you actually do it.

I am teasing... mostly xD. Rongi has promised it will be a long wait til episode one no matter what, I'm just eager to know how I did, if all my hard work paid off or not! *infinite /happy emote in anticipation* aka jumping in circles unable to sit still... Gogo lala happy!

xD I understand the anticipation Terrini. It may even be 1 week after everyone gets to see episode 0 that I'll get to see because neither of my sisters have internet...and I'll be with them during that time.

This might be the hardest week of my life! lol

Haha, don't even get me started on finishing up stuff before 3.0... I'd like to beat coil... only T13 left, finish getting my crafters to 50 (almost there) and gear my warrior and monk decently. Save up some money and get some more jute seeds from crossbreeding (which means once per hour fertilizing as much as possible T_T)...
Outside of FF and ENTM I am writing an original forum RP together with some fc members and I started writing a side story for my character on that... Then my ENTM project (which I'll reveal tomorrow) and my screenshot project, which I also want to finish before 3.0 because becoming an Au Ra would break that a bit. :rolleyes:

Something else I thought of today: I'm a bit surprised the community moderators have never commented on ENTM. It's such a massive and long standing project - soon running over a year - I'm a bit curious what they think of it. What do you guys think?

Masha did a thing! Check the front page! Thank you SOOOO much Masha for the Cycle 1 banner, now all the cycles have one ^.^ You're truly a talent <3

OMG I'm the biggest idiot EVER! idk why the party translated as June 25th for me! LOL I'll be able to make it xD YAY! I dont leave for my sister's until June 25th lol

So I've been taking a break from Dragon Lily. Photo shoot really wore me out lol!

Playing on Pooky and I caught a shot I tried so hard to get on Dragon Lily. But because she's so awkward tall with weird angles could never get it. And behold! Play my Miqote and I catch it! This would've made an awesome battle shot!

What you guys think?

oooo, I like that a lot!

I was also curious that they've never commented on it at all...

When do you guys usually get on the skype thing? Nobody has mentioned it again and I want to chatter. O^O/

Uhm not sure, the skype chat I mentioned is the one of Youtube Cycle 2 models and the two mentors, Rongi & Adeline. I'm one of the few EU based people in there and on the busy days when I woke up I had 300-400 messages waiting for me XD

Yeah, we actually don't voice chat much, it's all casual text banter xD We were talking about getting an all-cycles chat going, but only vets could do that... like Ade, or Rongi... or even Marik, Rina, Iris, ect... nothing yet though...

Yeah that was the issue I kept running into with Dragon Lily amongst other things!

Nozomi, add me on Skype (look in earlier emails for my contact info, or let me know if you need me to resend it) and I'll add you to the group. It's entirely text-based, just a group chatroom.

I'm planning on Twitch streaming the event >_>, huhuhu.

Just a heads up, Rongi is w/o internet for the time being. Just a warning, he may have to move the farewell event for another time. Still uncertain at the moment, will let you know more as info. comes along.

Hey guys! Like Marik said, Its currently 8am and i've been without internet for a little over 24 hours. With it being memorial day i dont know if theyll have it fixed, but i keep checking every few hours. If you saw the news recently, we had record flooding here in San Marcos, Texas. Last i checked, 1 fatality and 3 missing. I'm totally 100% safe though, so please don't worry!

Even if i cannot be there, for anyone who is free, i hope you guys will still hang out and have a good time.
