Well, let's wait and see. I'm no surprised if they postpone it again since tens and thousands of entries were entered. They even have to look at all the ridiculous entries that were cut and pasted. It's more time for us to gain money for the avatars, anyways. :)

Quotefucking sucks. everyone email the GIS or something. they WILL pay for this.
why should they pay?  1st they have to choose what avatar, second choose which ones are best, 3rd post the names and stuff then finally make the avatar Do you think they can do that in a week?

If not, I need 60k for Great Devil Head!

First thing I saw when I scrolled down to the personal best list:
Cuppucino

He's the one that copied the Conceptor's thor and turned it negative and called it 'Night Thor'

That is so f'king lame...he better get caught, and Conceptor didn't get recognized.

EDIT: I barely noticed Conceptor made his thread.

wow if I ever saw that guy in real life i'd personally remove his head and jam it straight up his ass.

Its amazing how low some people can sink, I just hope softnyx realizes he's been stealing

Post by: Metal on Jun 25, 2004, 02:57 PM
This is insane. I think we should all complain to Softnyx. This is just plain bullshit.

The people checking th images should have kept records and even looked over the images picked for personal best. Also, seeing that ROY4L wasn't once notified for personal best is complete bullshit.

In an ironic turn of events cuppocino has just registered here. I hope Rizz bans him fast.

Post by: JirotheHero on Jun 25, 2004, 03:44 PM
Let's see what he has to say first.


EDIT: Er, I think its a fake. He registered as Cappucino

Title: no winner, no avatar
Post by: Metal on Jun 25, 2004, 04:09 PM
Yes. I would like to apologize to Cappucino for yelling at her. I made a stupid mistake and read the name wrong. Please forgive me, Cap.

To whom it may concern,

OPEN YOUR EYES[/size] and stop harassing me with PMs.

Sincerely,

CAPPUCINO

Just so you know, even though it wasn't the art stealer, even if it was, he has as much right as anyone to post here. Even if he is a loser.
Title: no winner, no avatar
Post by: Conceptor on Jun 25, 2004, 10:52 PM
why? he would just have easier access to steal things.

Yes, he would, but really, I don't think we would want to come off as unfair. We'd have to wait for him to break the rules here before he got banned, I'd imagine..

This site is seperate from Gunbound, we can't ban someone here because they have a bad reputation, as much as some of us (myself included) would like to.

I'm sure though, he'd screw himself over and get banned anyways.

Post by: chinakoneko on Jun 26, 2004, 04:13 AM
gah give it a rest, i think it's been made clear that t3h l4m3r cuppucino didn't register here. ;P

anyway... meh-ish on the winning avs. the reaper one is okay and the bird one is pretty original. i'm guessing the reason the ones submitted by conceptor and monketsu, beautiful as they were, were "too detailed" to make. and come on, it's gb. they'd screw over the look anyway. xD personally i loved the dragon avs that conceptor made, and [CONSPIRACY!] to me they really, REALLY look similar to that "new" greater devil suit that gb just put out in the av shop a few days ago... HMM... >_>;;

Master, it would be the same if a known scammer/hacker came and registered here. I would ban them in a second. If the real cuppacino ever registered here, I would ban him/her in a second as well.  There is no place on GBGL for theives, and technically he scammed GIS (OMG?) into thinking his stuff was legit, though it's pretty lame they didn't find out on their own.  I have emailed them myself as well.  Though I doubt anything will come of it but it cannot hurt to try.

I suppose it is ironic that they come out with avs with many similarities that both monk and I did. red-devil/red-dragon, both big yellow horns, etc. and monk's frankenstein with minor details changed.

Its kind of funny though, i thought. the winner probably had the most simplest design. How hard is it to do a cloak, maybe GB just wanted to do something simple and were lazy. On the other hand, 2nd place was just as detailed as any other thing i've done. Except, the design, was randomly cubist. You know like picasso, not in the good way but in the wierdly placed proportions cubist style. Its all sad. who knows what they were looking for, obviously not the best peices of work. So many people are disapointed.

crap monkey.  the scarecrow was well made, though.  it deserved a prize at least, i think.  seriously, though... wth is up with those thieves.  i pm'd dragonxr once to try to get him to take his stolen submissions down.  yeah.  what a fucking asshole.  hope someone at his preschool gives him the smack-down

i agree conceptor.  i think the reason you guys didnt win was because they were too lazy to do all the details in your art.  if you look at the top 3 winners' they are pretty simple and plain.  very unoriginal ideas too.  it said, it gave personal prize to people who were just "ok", or people with too much detail on thier avatar and they couldn't turn it into "actual" avatar.  You guyz art was literally blows my mind and if I was the GIS team i would've picked conceptor, monketsu, and kalomus.  But i guess the drawing for GIS was too complicated.  =/
