Contest Winners!

CONTEST WINNERS!

3RD PLACE GOES TO: MirthGoblin

MirthGoblin successfully named all four characters, but unfortunately he wasn't the first to do this.

2ND PLACE GOES TO: teac

Who successfully named two characters first. Congratulations!

1ST PLACE GOES TO: Kleptomaniac

Not only did Kleptomaniac name all four characters correctly, but he was the first to join the contest. Kind of a shocker for me. I knew someone would name all four, I just didn't know that the first person to join would be it.



Anyways congratulations to all the winners. I'll send your prizes to you as soon as they become available. Thanks to everyone who joined as well. Look forwards to my next give-away!

Holy crud. I didn't expect to get more than 1 right (the "freebie" Candy).

Candy was obviously the one with the lollipop, #3.
Rin is very Japanese sounding, and it stands out from the rest. Girl #1 was the only one with what looks like a Japanese sword (the style on the hilt gave it away) so I guessed it was her.
Molly is a "cute" name, not something someone would want to be called if they wanted to look "imposing" or "cool" (like Girl #2), so I guessed it was #4.
That left Claire for #2.

That's a really cool way to look at it. Honestly I thought people would be making random guesses, but you proved me wrong man. Anyways the comic is being released with the script and some notes I've written as production moved along. You can see how the comic changed from script to paper and my thoughts on the whole project. I also tell people how I came up with the idea and the name.

Thanks man for entering the contest.

HA! I knew I would be right! I knew I was too late for entering but I was curious if my guesses would be right. IMO it wasn't that hard if you have knowledge of character naming.

 

[PenMasterRule]

Sorry Excess. I do appreciate your participation of course. And here are the names if anyone wants to know. A lot of people actually got the names correct. I should have added a few more just to make it more fair, but I didn't think about it until it was too late.

1. Rin
2. Claire
3. Candy
4. Molly.

This was actually the first contest I've ever held so it was a good learning experience for me. The next one will be better.
