**kRaven** · July 30th, 2009, 04:22 AM

Signing in, just to feel myself safer. Good luck to everyone.

**Ladadesign** · July 30th, 2009, 05:14 AM

Hi all , just registered. Quick question / confirmation:

Its says in the rules "include your full name, conceptart.org username, address, and phone number in the email with the entry attached)."

But we also have to include what country / continent we're representing too right? Since there are regional Prizes.

**Ladadesign** · July 30th, 2009, 05:15 AM

Hang on. I skimmed over the "address" part...sorry lol question answered.

**ktkps** · July 30th, 2009, 07:26 AM

Guys will there be a confirmation for the submission of entries??

**arttorney** · July 30th, 2009, 01:16 PM

Apparently not until the members choice poll goes up. If you know you sent the email, and it didn't bounce back, then relax. Everybody is going through the same thing.

**Hayden Tarr** · July 30th, 2009, 02:58 PM

So just to clarify is it due on July 31st at 11:59pm central time? sorry just a little confused on the exact time we have to submit by

**chris bass** · July 30th, 2009, 04:24 PM

according to

Code:

Final submissions are due no later than July 31 2009 (central standard time)

you should be right,but a verification would be welcome.

**Ilaekae** · July 30th, 2009, 07:58 PM

"So just to clarify is it due on July 31st at 11:59pm central time?"

That timing has been traditional here for as long as I've been here. Some idiots running a challenge (dum de dum dum...ahem...) will stretch it to midnight in American Samoa(?) ...as long as its still July 31st...

**fersteger** · July 30th, 2009, 11:00 PM

I know I probably won't get an official answer in such a short time till eadline but maybe someone has the same problem. I already emailed my submission thinking I won't have any more time to work on it, but it ends up I will have another hour or so and I'd like to keep going on it, is it okay if I email a newer version??

I'm going to anyways I guess, I just hope it doesn't confuse the people who are gonna compile the entries.

**NoirRojo** · July 31st, 2009, 03:59 AM

How soon will the results be announced?

**NIRONERU** · July 31st, 2009, 05:19 AM

may the best artist win...

**alesoun** · July 31st, 2009, 08:47 AM

Done, dusted and sent off. Good luck, everyone....

**arttorney** · July 31st, 2009, 05:22 PM

Here are a few lines from the first post in this thread:

JUDGING PERIOD:
Judging will take place on the date of August 7th 2009. Peoples Choice judging poll will open on August 1 2009 and will close on August 7 2009.

RULES:
1. Multiple entries per participant are fine.

It looks to me like announcements will be at least a week away and that it is OK to enter more than once. I didn't see a rule that said your entries are not allowed to resemble each other. I'd say you might as well make your newer version, fersteger.

**ktkps** · July 31st, 2009, 08:35 PM

Can't wait to see how this thing ends..!!

**fersteger** · July 31st, 2009, 08:39 PM

Yeah, I'm emailing mine again, it doesn't just resemble the last one I emailed, it is the same thing with some tweaks, I just emailed it too soon was all. Hope the right one is entered, good luck everyone, can't wait to see them all.

**Ian Barker** · July 31st, 2009, 10:44 PM

Just submitted both mine. Neither have any sort of chance, but they were fun to do, and with some refinement could maybe fit in a portfolio.

**Tonic** · July 31st, 2009, 11:05 PM

I've sent it

Right now it's 5:00AM, I'm dying with empty stomach, my eyes are irritated and want to sleep. In other words, I've had a fun

**ArtMonkeyWorld Dave** · August 1st, 2009, 01:02 AM

I got mine in the other day and wanted to take a moment to say Good Luck to Everyone. The pieces I have see on this site are amazing and everyone here deserves to stand out.
Good night and good luck

**legionare** · August 1st, 2009, 01:16 AM

**MeBabyMe** · August 1st, 2009, 11:34 PM

**Rod.windt** · August 2nd, 2009, 01:36 PM

ohh...ok.

**art80** · August 2nd, 2009, 10:25 PM

**riotorange** · August 3rd, 2009, 02:31 PM

Ok so i am confused. i see a Finals Thread.. but no poll to actually vote for the Peoples Choice..
i see that people are ranking posts in the Finals Thread-- is THAT how we vote for this--there's not like the actual list of people at the top to click on?
and ..as a side thought...if it is how we vote-- why are people ranking things so low? i keep seeing like "3 out of 10" why would you do that if its the one you want to win? wouldn't you give it a 10?

**Kitten Poker** · August 3rd, 2009, 02:45 PM

I think the poll just isn't up yet :op

**carakhan** · August 3rd, 2009, 02:48 PM

riotorange: I think people are using the ratings to "crit" each image right now. It would be weird if they used that for the community poll, I dont think thats what they're doing.

**riotorange** · August 3rd, 2009, 02:56 PM

Arenyth Thanks,just wondering is all. i figured the poll just wasnt up yet, but i'm confused because i asked Jason yesterday if we were allowed to rank more than one person in the finals thread and he said "no, only rank one and there's just one people choice" -- so either his poor tired overworked and abused self misunderstood my question, or im just stupid all around. ( im leaning towards me being stupid tho, really lol)
