Thanks to everyone who left comments regarding my work situation, I appreciate the support! Things have been rough, because of the way I was let go I'm being forced to fight for what money I should be entitled to, which has been mentally exhausting... but I've made some recent headway, thankfully :) Hopefully 2015 will bring a more calmed down schedule, so that I can get fully back into the swing of things XD
Anyway we received 6 terrific icons, great job everyone, thanks to those who were able to submit! Now it's time for all available members to cast their votes! Please vote if you can, whether you submitted an icon or not (but especially if you entered to be fair to the other contestants) as the more votes we receive ensures more accurate results. Every last vote makes a huge difference so I'd really appreciate it if you could take the time to cast yours.
And remember that the vote you cast earns a card at
TCG Exchange if you choose to participate there.
To vote leave a screened comment to this post with the numbers of your 'first and second' choice icons that you feel are best overall, in that order because that is how the points will be awarded. Here is an example of the proper voting format. Just make sure I can differentiate which of the chosen icons are first and second:
First: 45
Second: 72
Or like this:
45,72
Voting Rules
'Do's'
- You must be a member to vote, one ballot per member (excludes multiple accounts)
- You must vote for a total of two icons (no more, no less) or your vote will be discarded
- Vote for the best/most appropriate icons overall, not your favourite series/character/etc.
'Do Not's'
- Do not vote for your own icon or feel obligated to vote for your friend's icon
- Don't vote for an icon more than once... I'm not sure why you would, but just in case
- Do not reveal your entry until voting is closed or pressure people to vote for you
- Do not create multiple fake accounts to cheat, I check IP adresses and account status
If you accidently vote for the wrong number of icons, vote for the same icon twice or vote for a non-existant entry then I will reply to your comment asap and give you a chance to revote. Otherwise if you break one of the rules chances are your vote will be discarded and/or, depending on the offence, your icon may face disqualification. It is at my discretion to discard suspicious votes.

Voting will close Monday, December 8th at 11:00 PM Eastern, giving a little extra time due to the delays. A comment will be left when voting is officially closed, no late votes will be accepted at that time unless an official extension is announced. Once voting is closed, you are free to publically display/distribute your entry as it will have no impact on the results. Winners will be posted sometime after depending on my schedule.
This month there is a
Holiday Icon Grab Bag challenge running, where members can make CLAMP based requests/suggestions and have other members make icons based on them. It'll be fun, so get in the spirit of giving and receiving then start participating!
