asdfg what the fuck am i doing i suck at landscapes why am i trying to learn now of all times (yes that's the palette from the pixeljoint challenge, not sure if i'm sticking with it or if i'm going to make my own palette later)

basically this is like an MMORPG with similar gameplay as Diablo, and this is one of the dungeon bosses except the party here's killed the boss like 20 times and just wants that rare piece of armor so they can go home to show off also the party will be lion and virgin themed i guess???

good luck starpower, you probably have a better idea of what you're doing than i do

As mentioned on PJ, I can't wait to face you(hopefully). This looks like it'll be the sex. Diablo is awesome. I'd stick with that palette, it's good to limit yourself in order to pay more attention to detail and not fancy colors.

You're not the only one! Not a big fan of the topic but whatever.

wait why is the aquatic theme a thing?
you seem to have put yourself at an advantage chris, having the two most watery signs

[Rakia]

I'm sure it was random.

What? Do you realize I'm not asking you to draw Leo the Lion, Cancer the Crab etc? I gave zodiac signs to help inspire you on designs, the storyline, etc. I never asked you to take it literally.
Besides, I chose the zodiac signs according to the order given on the Wikipedia page, which I put into parallel with the matches. It was a coincidence. And if you think I'm finding it easy to use these zodiac signs, then you're mistaken. I would've liked Leo and Scorpio, personally.

If I really wanted to rig this category, I can tell you that the matching would've been different, just like the theme.

Sorry but I'm pissed off at reading these kind of accusations, because at this point in time I'm trying anything but put myself to an advantage.

update.


Edit: I threw in the zodiac sign idea after the main idea, because it was the first thing that sprung to my mind to distinguish the duels, and it is conveniently comprised of 12 signs.

You will have to agree, though, that it was highly predictable that some of those who don't know you as well might think you'd cheat, participating in the competition you plan and host yourself; you really called for it

Aaanyways I really hope that everyone will finish their huge entry in time; they all look very promising so far!

Chris has a point, people, if he really wanted to cheat he would give himself cancer and pisces ( a crab and a fish), then said that they do have to be literal interpretations, and paired himself with someone who barely made it to expert, he is playing fair, I bet my entire (though unfortunately puny) rep. on it, if that sways any doubters.

[Garamonde]

Chris is an honorable man. I don't want to see anyone telling him that he isn't playing fairly.

I am going to say that if he isn't following the rules and not trying to earn his victory, then this entire competition is a joke and we are all doing it wrong. That is how much I trust him.

[Zac]

whoa I'm not even competing remember, I was just telling you what it seemed like from an outside perspective
I don't actually think you put yourself at an advantage

[Chris2Balls [:B]]

Ah, okay. I'm sorry if I lashed out at you. As Previous said, I should've been aware that this kind of remark would crop up.
I'll take that in count for the next round!

It doesnt matter cause he'll eventually have to face me hyukhyukhyukhyuk
