SOTM 2009 - February (Dancing) - Voting Thread

[Solace]

!!!Welcome to the SOTM!!!

---

This is the Voting Phase for the February SOTM Contest.
Please read the following rules very carefully before casting your vote for your favorite entries.

---

The Voting Process - How do I vote?:

1. Look at all the entries in the second post, and pick one, two, or three that you like.

2. Take the number and name of the entries you like.

3. Make a single post with the number and name of the entries you are voting for.

Format for Voting - How do I correctly cast my vote?:

When you make your vote, please use the number of the entry and the name of contestant. Example:

I will tally the votes during the contest and once again at the end of the contest. The winner will be announced when the final day for voting passes.

---

Voting Rules - Things every potential voter should know:

1. You can vote for up to three of your favorite entries. You do not *need* to vote for more than one, but you can vote up to three if you wish.

2. All votes are equal. I will remove votes from anyone attempting to influence others vote choice.

3. Do not confuse the voting process by changing your votes or by trying to vote more than once. It's a simple format, and if you don't follow it, I won't count your vote.

4. You can vote for yourself, but we'd rather you didn't. If you are going to vote for yourself, you must vote for at least one other person.

5. In the event of a tie, there will be a second voting process. If that voting also results in a tie, the contestants in that poll will all be declared winners and will decide together what the theme for the next contest is. If they cannot decide by the time the contest begins for the next month, the organizer will decide based on community input.

6. To cut down on any potential cheating, any accounts registered a week before, and up through, the voting period are not eligible to vote. The exception to this rule is any account with an entry in the contest.

*I reserve the right to reject votes if I deem any account suspicious.*

---

Voting begins on Sunday, February 22nd, 2009, at 12:00pm, and ends the following Sunday, March 1st, 2009, at 12:00pm.

The timezone I am using is UTC/GMT.

Use this site to figure out what time that is in your timezone: http://www.worldtimeserver.com/convert_time_in_UTC.aspx

That's it! You can comment in this thread, but I will not tolerate any vote swaying or contest rigging. Any suspicious activity will be reported to the mods, so please, keep this clean and fair.

Questions, comments, concerns, or suggestions about the general voting phase or how the contest is run can be directed to me using the private message function or to the SOTM Generic Discussion Thread. Drama is not tolerated, so be civil. *If it's a concern about a contestant or entry, please PM me before discussing it publicly.* Thank you.


ANYONE NOT FOLLOWING THE VOTING PROCESS WILL NOT HAVE THEIR VOTES COUNTED. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Good luck contestants, and most importantly, have fun!

These, in my opinion, really captured the spirit of the theme and looked great at the same time:

9. Larthak
>Love it. Great colors, and the white stripes (I don't know what else to call them) really seem to envelop the characters in "sweet memories". Very nice job.

14. KiNA
>I'm speechless at teh awesomeness.

15. Marina
>Great pose, and great text. Really captures the essence of the theme. And is damn nice to look at.

Quite simply beautiful sig.

12. Kai the Reaper
I like the simple style and animation is quite OK as well.

16. Sacchin
This gets the vote for being hilarious. Great job!


Wanted to vote for KiNA as well. Great animation and insane amount of frames. Just found those three a bit more appealing visually.
