OFFICIAL Eorzea's Next Top Model Discussion Thread

[Adeline]

Unfortunately, when it comes to competitions like this people are gonna vote for their friends. Ever since this competition has started, it's been very obvious who votes for their friends and who doesn't, simply by corresponding the servers. Whether its server pride, friendship or what not, it's going to happen....I've seen it happen alot but I never felt that compelled to msg Ty about it, cuz honestly, you're not gonna be able to do anything about it at this point in the competition.

What people need to remember is that the judge's scores are there for a reason. As Sangriah pointed out, the judge's score heavily in on shots. You can have all your friends vote, but if your shot sucks, the judges will not like it and you're in deep do do.

I'm sorry if my friends voting for me has pissed anyone off, but honestly I can't feel all that bad considering I've been seeing the same thing going on with people and their corresponding servers. The night of deliberation last week, I was a bit sad and my friends asked why. I told them cuz I was prolly being voted off, so some of them said they would vote to help me out...I didn't think it would be that big of a deal. I'm also not one for hand outs. If my shots suck don't vote for me, but when I'm told they aren't, it's great to hear.

Anyway I'm sorry to Ty and the rest of the ENTM crew for all this drama. Stay frosty everyone and have a good rest of the Holidays~ New Year's coming up (oh and my Bday on the 29th)! I also hope that all PS players can get in to take their shots...this is very stupid that people would hack or mess up video games...anyone let's to hoping you guys can get in soon ><

This is my post back originally when all this stupid drama happened. It's just sad considering I never said I asked my FC for help. I was in a depressed state (not even my FC~ just my friends in general) and I told them why, and they wanted to help. I didnt even expect it to even matter considering the judge's votes were heavier in the long run. As I've been saying for IDK how long now, I never went around begging or asked my FC to to help. If you want to great! If not it's fine, vote for me because you want to support me and my shot. I think the same can be said for anyone else around here that's been voting for people they know~ they like their friends shot and want to support them.

This is why I also never bothered even saying anything to Ty about previous models and their server friends vote for them...it's like why bother. It is what it is, so why get mad about it. But of course, someone has to <_<

Anyway I'm sorry for the missunderstanding (my post was made while I was half asleep and prolly came out the wrong way), but when you see someone go /popcorn and potential drama happening because I might be involved, I needed to say something.

Oh honey, I don't know you at all and we don't even play on the same server. But most of my votes are for you because I really like your shots! Congratulations on winning!

Congratulations to everyone! There were so many phenomenal shots this cycle, it was an honor to be judge for it. The top 4 was great. Eirwen, your sorrowful-desert shot is one my top favorites I'll remember of all time. Everything about it was amazingly executed. Flare, your shots were always injected with humor, but had great compositions especially later on. Your ratatouille shot sticks in my mind! Jinx! I especially remember and loved your Beastman shot - it was awesome! And Adeline, your vibrant farming one as well as your assassin's creed/batman-esque finale shot were awesome.

Good luck to all being judges for the next cycle! ^^
