OFFICIAL Eorzea's Next Top Model Discussion Thread

To me that takes a large element of the contest out of it.

It is the job of the contestant to follow the rules, to find a good location, to pick out a good outfit and to take a good shot.

They shouldn't have to run it by someone to know if it follows the rules, looks good, etc..

It is a contest to see who does those things best.

Winning and losing is part of the fun, it shouldn't need to be mitigated.

It wouldn't mitigate the competition at all, it just solidifies that everyone is on par at the same level and gives them a chance to rethink their approach possibly. Like Vahn's snow shot. He wanted to do a simple, modeling approach that focused on him. The voters said it was boring. He (probably) didn't think it was boring, and Rongi probably didn't say "Hey Vahn that picture is boring compared to the others this round," so Vahn would have been a stronger competitor had he had a mentor to say "You know I've seen the other shots and to really contend you either need to make this shot entirely about you or give the background more energy." Idk about you but I have more fun competing when my competitors are giving their all, not when they're stumbling and falling and making me look the best by default. The way it seems you want this competition to go would be like if the real Top Model show had like silent cameramen on the shoot site and no shoot directors and the models never got to see their own shots until they were all being judged.
