OSC#21 Voting

[DM8954]

It's time to vote for which screenshot best portrays the competition theme.

The theme for the Oblivion Screenshot Competition #21 was: Ominous.
The competition page is here: Oblivion Screenshot Competition #21: Ominous

Any member of Cyrodiil Forums can vote once whether you entered the competition or not. If you have an entry in the competition it is strongly recommended that you don't vote for yourself. Not only is that a pretty arrogant thing to do but it is rude and could potentially skew the voting. Besides, if everyone voted for their own entry, then only the votes of those who did not participate would count. Everyone be honest and vote for the screenshot that best fits the theme.

Try not to take the "quality" of the image into account too much. No one should win just because they have a more powerful computer and run higher settings. Think of this as an in-game photography contest. Consider, mood, composition, balance (stuff like that if you know about photography), but above and beyond any other consideration: does this entry most make me think about this rounds theme?

It's not a requirement but please tell us who you voted for and why. You can also tell us what was most important to you and what could any of the entries could have done to be better.

The poll will expire in 7 days (Thursday, 30 October 2008), that's all the time you have to make your decision. After that, I'll leave the poll open for the announcement of the winner, congratulation posts, and any additional comments and discussion of the entries.

I voted for xoxoxolovestinksxoxoxox's
not that I could vote for any one elses, no seriously i think if some one else entered i would of voted for xoxoxolovestinksxoxoxox's  because as she said an Oblivion sky is pretty scary espiecially when your looking at it from a church.

haha....i voted for lovestinks because i thought the Oblivion clouds and the Church looked pretty cool together and i also don't know what ominus means really.....
plus i wanted to be mean to my brother i think if his had more light in it, it would've been better, especially if that furniture wasnt in the way.

Why is the poll: Which screenshot do you think should win "OSC#19: Fire"?

I'm confused.

[DM8954]

I fixed it.   I use a lot of copy/paste for these things to keep them uniform and quick/easy and I forgot to change that part.   Thanks for noticing.

I'm assuming that no one voted for the wrong entry because of this error... but if anyone did, please let me know and I'll look into resetting the votes... maybe.


FYI (from dictionary.com):
Ominous (Adjective) :
   1. Menacing; threatening: ominous black clouds; ominous rumblings of discontent.
   2. Of or being an omen, especially an evil one.

My extended explanation:
Omen --> Ominous

    A clear sign that bad things are probably about to happen.

Heh. so we got both meanings of ominous in here.

[rockerdunmer]

okay... thanks for the explanation... i can be a bit dumb sometimes
