The Grand OC! [CONTEST XXX: HALLOWEEEEEEEEEEN]

WEEEOOOOOWEEEEOOOOOWEEEEEOOOO
IT'S AWARDS TIME

First things first! The Above the Fold award goes to WOOP WOOP, which somewhat counteracts the anti-awards it would've anti-won for Diligent Gentleman and Synergy. This thing would be hella impractical to actually write for in a battle. How do you even type in two colours?

The Iron Chef Special Ingredient Award, to nobody's surprise ever, goes to The Concerted. We got sentient sounds and alluring lovers, but the Psi-Wrens simultaneously hit all my "incredibad puns", "birds", and "wizard-based accidents" buttons.

Backdoor Worldbuilding goes to Shif Ava Serafa, whose profile was more or less made for this award. This might've made them eligible for the I See What You Did There, except that the alternative is where the Concerted wins everything.

Elpie proves himself The Diligent Gentleman. I know, he literally spelt out that Pandor Lysistradt would benefit from a whistlestop tour of the Multiverse, but his profile seemed the best fit for this award of the selection.

The 20Q Award is given to Jean Chirac. I think. I'm not even sure what this guy's deal is. He killed a lady? Something something locks? Suave? Confusion?

To Copper, I entrust the Synergy Award. There are few battles which do not benefit from the obligatory Lawful Stupid character, and Copper would be sure to arrest many a fellow contestant for disturbing the peace, hypocrisy be damned.

Garuru wins The I See What You Did There for his nameless, featureless phenomenom, a clear contender for the 20Q Award. I prefer my abstract concepts-as-contestants with a bit more personality to them.

Best In Show is stolen from behind with Mirdini's Iapihil, which after a precursory google I discovered would've been a decent contender for the Iron Chef Award. If there weren't, y'know, the Psi-wrens. Which I love.

Thanks for playing, everyone!
