The Grand OC! [CONTEST XXX: HALLOWEEEEEEEEEEN]

Well, guess it's time for me to score these. I'm putting a limit of two per entrant while trying to award everything, so here goes.

Let's start with one of the easier ones. The I See What You Did Award goes to Mirdini's Mark, Other Mark, Big Mark, Mayrq, Mærk, Märk, Mahrk for blatant redundancy with Lankie's entry from last week, which is a theme so I guess that works anyways.

The Best Of Show Award goes to Dalm for Karl Marx Riding An Acrocanthosaurus. I think this is pretty much self-explanatory.

The Above the Fold Award would have gone to someone who actually described their text color as a color, just to be contrary. Since that didn't happen, I'm giving it to Truegreen's Biogen Regenerator "Reggie" for having the most ordinary above-the-fold details overall, just to show the rest of you.

The Iron Chef Special Ingredient Award goes to Mirdini for managing to make an interesting redundancy-themed profile that was both redundant and interesting.

In a shocking twist, the Backdoor Worldbuilding Award goes to Schazer for Ariel Regatta and Quil Regatta, on Hydrogal 8. Seriously, there's a lot of backstory behind this thing and it's all pretty interesting.

The Diligent Gentleman Award goes to Truegreen, because a crazed machine intelligence that creates dinosaurs is just a recipe for a lot of wild and crazy battle shenanigans.

The 20Q Award for Confusing Me goes to Sol for Kyaspark. What's this reptilian bird going to do? Why does she, or is it a he, or neither, keep running off and meeting new people who give them new names? I don't really know, maybe if there's an actual battle we'll find out.

The Synergy Award goes to Red709 for ExIsT v 1.0 to 5.0. What happens when this mass of nanomachines that rebeled against its creators contacts the other mass of nanomachines that rebeled against its creators? Will it and Reggie forge a beautiful friendship, or a devious nanomechanical rivalry? Not to mention all the organics it can throw hallucinogens at, particularly the Rainbot'l, which is exactly the sort of organic creature you don't want going crazy.

The Space Jam Remix Prize For Cross-Thematic Cohesion goes to Dalm for combining Dinosaurs and Marx (as well as cannons!) in a surprisingly natural way. This is a marvelous character and if I weren't trying to limit to two prizes per entrant at max it probably would have won them all.

Thanks to everyone for participating! We're doing a new group, expect the next theme to be up shortly.
