It always is. To the point that I think its overused.
I really hope this becomes an annual contest though.
Entries would look very similar tho if not the same, like with “Join The Watch”, its entry from 2017. I took part in the contest back then too, it was player contest tho.
I already stated my opinion about the judging criteria in the Minmatar Contest, I didn’t say anything about it in the Amarr one and no need to do it here either. I’m just glad to see I’m not the only one…
However, in my opinion having two 3rd place winners isn’t right, especially since none of the other event contests had it. Also the Amarr and Caldari contests were suppose to have different categories for video, picture, writing, etc, not surprised that didn’t happen.
Indeed, it’s an older piece.
But since it felt in the previous contests like the winners get “drawn at random” I don’t have much motivation to put in effort if I have no good idea or time to come up with something new. Very efficient, much Caldari. ^^
However: Thanks to the people at CCP for making these “contests”.
I just whish they would put in a disclaimer about the decisionmaking in their initial posts. Or some other kind of expectation management. Otherwise I fear they will keep disappointing people who put in lots of effort.
