Goodbye lucky post 777!

Big numbers aren't the only thing people like! )))))

Size queen.

The scores are up and we have a frickin' TIE for the first round!

Judge critiques are posted in the thread as always, but for quick reference here are the first round rankings:

THE SCORES:

810 Epsil Ion
810 Tinsley Tr'uhart
696 Brun Hilda
565 Hopelle Losstoam
531 Stephen Fairbrook
496 Katarh Mest
454 Sunny Day
343 Nozomi Kei
318 Kaya Solimar
297 Aeon Rakshasa
278 Alexion Skylark
252 Arrelaine Fashonti

Congratulations to both Epsil and Tinsley! Those numbers were really close!

I want to take a moment to explain how those numbers were generated:

The total amount of votes I tallied was 1482 - that's summing up all of the scoring with 1st place getting 12 points, 2nd place getting 11 and so on. In order to reach the desired 25/75 public/vote split, I multiplied all the judge scores by a factor of 14. This resulted in a total of 4368 points from judges - which was 74.6% of the total 5850 points. Bumping up the numbers for judges, combined with how many models we have is why those numbers are so high. As we lose models the total number of points will drop, so don't expect to see numbers that high after the next round!

Woo hoo! Congratulations for the first round winners. And thanks for all the feedback everyone! I'm excited about the upcoming rounds and can't wait to see what everyone else will do.

What I have learned:

Metallic Blue is divisive. XD I knew it would be, so I went for the safe round!

*strokes Metallic Blue Forager's Set* It's okay, I still love you.

And congrats to Epsil and Tinsley! \/ You both deserved it for your awesome shots! I'm terrified of you both! <3

I just wanna say everyone did a good job, and it was hard to put people in a order. Usually it was very small things that I had to nit-pick which is great!!

Good job everyone can't wait for Week 2!
