    1. That would be a no. Because I tried it last competition and it was rejected. No overly modefied artwork.

    2. How did you know that you are rejected?

  4. FIrst of all, what do the judges seek in the participants works? Fancy ILLUSTRATIONS with the line arts or just the winnable color scheme for the plamo kit ?

    Do the judges at GG even know the differences between an ILLUSTRATION and a COLOR SCHEME?

    Do the judges at GG even able to tell a reused PLAGIARIZED work?

    1. None of those matter. This is a privately funded contest with no official affiliation. GG funded the contest on their own and thus they have all the rights to subjectively choose the winner as they please. Anyone in the contest always have a chance of winning.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I hope so cause I got the dates mixed up and thought I had until the 11th and I've got to rush it.

      Delete
  21. When are the entries going to be posted? I have two entries that I have no idea if they went through or not that I sent a week before the deadline!

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Agreed, especially since the results are supposed to be announced in two days. Would be very disappointed to find out that our entries didn't get through at that time

      Delete
  22. it's already past may 11th, and when will they really posted the winners OAO/

    ReplyDelete
  23. i think they were just so very bussy becaouse af many event updates.. mostly the bankee events..

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. it's very simple to just post a line saying they are busy with events, and that'd be fine. But going into complete radio silence makes all of us feeling ignored.

      Delete
    2. GG does this every single time he has a contest. EVERY time. Why put a deadline you know you can't keep?

      Delete
  24. It's easy to announce a contest, but quite another to manage the entries. They'll need someone to sit down and post the remaining entries soon; it's almost a month since the contest "deadline".

    ReplyDelete
  25. any updates as to when we will see results or at least all the entries? very curious to see how i did...

    ReplyDelete
  26. Ok seriously now, it's been over a month since the deadline. Why is there no update?

    ReplyDelete
  27. This hasn't been forgotten has it?
    will the rest of the entries be uploaded sometime soon at the very least?

    ReplyDelete
  28. Are you going to post the rest of the entries because it's been a month since the deadline. It's like you've forgotten or you're just ignoring this competition, it's just gotten annoying now. Please just post something!

    ReplyDelete
  29. once they accept our comments/reply it's enough for us to let them know that we are being bothered by their lack of updates on this contest.. and yep still i feel theres a lot of un-posted entries here.. hope they can finalize the judgment and let the community see the result :)

    ReplyDelete
  30. Some update please!!!

    ReplyDelete
  31. Waiting patiently since the last update :)

    ReplyDelete
  32. Thanks for finally posting an update.

    ReplyDelete
  33. So, we gonna know the winners anytime soon or what?

    1. Well going off how long it took to get a update, chances are September.

  34. Great, now the colouring contest banner has been dropped from the right panel.

    1. yeah. Looks like the competition died :(

  35. If you've said all entries were going to be posted a few day after June 20th, and did not do it. It makes you a liar. Many of us did try our best for our art works and we deserve some serious respect by at LEAST having our entries posted.

    ReplyDelete
  36. I wonder what will happen now.. seems like they dont really care about this anymore..

    ReplyDelete
  37. At this rate season 2 of GBF is going to finish before this contest.

    ReplyDelete
  38. I've not given up hope just yet

    ReplyDelete
  39. Come on, put out the new pictures already!

    ReplyDelete
  40. omg i wanna know if i lost already so i can move on!!!

    ReplyDelete
  41. Any updates? Its already august.

    ReplyDelete
  42. update the freaking contest already!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  43. Waiting for updates as well,
    you may have forgotten but we haven't

    ReplyDelete
  44. We are the Anonymous of the internet. We will hunt you down and make you sorry if you don't get to announcing winners for this contest soon.

    ReplyDelete
  45. I don't believe they don't have time to update this. It's August already. I think they dropped this contest. Gone with the wind.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Celebrating the 2nd month anniversary after the last update (that said updating soon and recommencing with the judging)!!!

    ReplyDelete
  47. COME ON!! it's almost been 4 months since the deadline. That's a quarter of the year. You update this site multiple times a day but you don't have time in 4 months to finish a freaking contest? What are you doing? Waiting for the Build Fighters Try series to air so you can give prizes from that show away? At this point you should almost give everyone who entered some sorta coupon for your negligence.

    ReplyDelete
  48. 6/20/2014 - "More info to follow shortly..."

    I guess "shortly" is actually quite a long time.

    Well, All I can say is that almost everyone who participated in this contest (including myself) actually devoted a great portion of their personal time and effort to make it to your deadline. Regardless of how beautiful or plain their entries ended up, i still think that they still gave their best for it one way or another.

    I know you guys are quite busy with alot of things, but a lot of people are really looking forward to this, and the lack of any recent update is actually frustrating. We dont even know if this contest is still on-going, forgone or whatever. I also understand that there are alot of difficulties in judging a contest like this, if so you could at least update us if the judging is actually on-going or was it postponed yet again.

    That being said, on behalf of everyone else who shares the same sentiment as I do, I would really appreciate if you would give us some update about this. I mean, its the very least we could expect from you guys in GG since you were the ones who announced this contest. Any simple update would be fine for me.

    And regardless of the contents of that update, I would still like to thank the GG team for hosting/posting the contest. I actually enjoyed preparing my entries.

    Thank you so much and Goodluck GG!

  55. "We will be selecting our top 3 winners for each mobile suit on May 11th 2014. We are looking forward to seeing all your creative works! " Maybe there was a typo.. should it be May 11th 2015? hahahaha!

    ReplyDelete
  56. Oh boy, soon it will be the one year anniversary of when you screwed over everyone who entered this contest. You may think we've forgotten, but we most definitely haven't.
