Hahaha. I love you guys. I am not good at getting nervous. About things like this.

You can't get nervous?

Not very often. I get nervous about receiving scores, but never about the build up. I only get nervous once I no longer have control. So I'm good during preparation or when I'm doing the thing. It's only after I've turned it in that I get really nervous. Cause I can't change anything after that.

ah. I'm just a nervous person?
and trying to be perfect really hinders me. xD cause than i over think things...

I don't get nervous, but I don't take critiques well the first time I read them (if I don't agree with that person's preferences). Though later I can look at the same critique and actually look at it with less bias than the first time, and take their advice into consideration.

O 3 O;; Uh-oh...
[gonk] We swears on the precious we tries to be nice to little contestantsies! We swears!

Haha, I'm a big girl, and irrational sometimes, but I get over stuff pretty quick if you weren't purposefully trying to offend me (which I know you all won't)

I haven't seen Mythos' judging yet, so I can't be overly sure, but the other three are not overly harsh. (despite what LONG will tell you, I've definitely seen worse then her too)

I think we should expect some constructive criticism from them ^.^

I'm a jerk. I usually have to sit on my critiques a bit before I send them out. If I don't like it I just stare at it with a WTH were they thinking? Then I step back and find what I do like and work from there. I've done art critiques before and know a nice balance. So I try to be more helpful.

LONG, not mentioning names, but I've seen judges who were basically "I hate this this this and that, 2/10"

that's not me :D

That wasn't me either, when I judged! I used the same critiquing process that LONG does. I blame it on art classes. But I would choose what I liked best, and then get into the harsh stuff (though I think I wasn't harsh). My opinion always varied from the other judges. They would love the avatars I hated and hate the ones I loved. Lol.

As long as you mention ONE thing that you like I won't mind. xD

Haha, oh Long. I'm nice about artistic things when I judge them, because it's so subjective. But let me tell you. You give me a red pen and an essay and I can be DEVASTATING.

I'm very very different than other people. Judging is so much fun. Being a contestant is fun. but getting judged is not. xD My creativity is a little to out of the box....

Better than being so in the box you look like everyone else! :D
I don't wanna tuuuutoooor.

Eh, some things I do aren't understood though. ^^;; Which is why i don't usually enter competitions. But I do like PM for the interesting challenges.

Ah, well, I'm sure you'll do great! We should make a bet. Because we both think the other is going to stay in longer. Last one of us standing has to pay the other fifty gold. Haha.

sure why not. xD

*shakes your internet hand*
Alrighty, the bet is on!

This will be interesting. xD

Indeed. Ooh, you're turning into quite the elegant little bunny.

Yay! i've been getting annoyed with my avatar cause i couldn't think what I wanted to do. this was what finally came to mind.

Well it is WAY cute!

Well then you would hate going through my essays, because I like to write in red pen. :P
