ROUND COMMENTS:

This was a difficult sig to subtext. And you know, I thought this is really where the good and the not so good would start to shine... but basically, I was very disappointed with many of these subtexts. Over half were boring and unoriginal, and I really hope that the people who make it through to the next round do much better than this time.

Twizzler0171: Hm, definitely not your best. I guess it goes well with the image, but something about this subtext just irks me... It's not a very original subtext, and it's just... boring. 6/10

Amarise: Borderline subtext. I can see how it relates to the image. Again, like Twizzler's, it's just okay. Some points for subtle originality, and it's not incredibly boring. 6.5/10

WaterIceSage: Once again, this is boring. When you look at a subtext, you want originality and flair. This has neither. Good descriptive words are a must in a subtext, and 'standout' doesn't make the cut. 5/10

Ledi: Best this round, by far. So far I'd say you're doing the best in this competition. Wonderful descriptions, good length, and it is an accurate description of both the main text and the image and background used. 9/10

Maniac: Hm. It's not great, but better than okay. I don't think you worded things well, however. I'd advise for you to say something in the past tence, such as "nature's painting"- which is a really different meaning from what I assume you were first going at, but which would be a really nice subtext. 7/10

Twinkle: Good. Not perfect, but it's nice. It describes the image really wonderfully, and just seems somewhat poetic. Nice job, Twinkle, and like Ledi I believe you are doing overall very well in this competition. 8/10

Hellyer: The signature is somewhat laidback, and this is a sort of complicated subtext. However, points for going with something original. One more nitpick, though, is that it matches with the unnatural colors of the set, but not really the image itself. That could be either a good or bad thing, but in this case I think it doesn't work. Still alright, though. 7/10

The_Dog_God: You've done better, and I know you can do better. Some extra points for creativity, but really I can't see how you got this subtext from this image. I can sort of see how the lillies could look somewhat divine, but I have to look hard to see it. Borderline, again. 6/10

THE ELIMINATIONS

The_Dog_God, Watericesage, Twizzler0171, Amarise

Wow, I totally thought I was gone afetr the first rating, but I'm pleasantly suprised that my subtext was even liked by some .

I knew I'd be gone either this round or the previous one The last two subtexts were hastily thrown together Though I still think that Paint is divine

I tried to mix my subtext between the Main Text (Paint) and the picture. I noticed that was usually a pet peeve of the judges last round.

It was fun, and I enjoyed my stay here. At least when I went, I pulled TDG down with me... I kid, I kid. Really. Or do I?

*zaps you with lightning*

What? Am I the last person? xD

Twizzler0171

It's not bad, no..and it goes with the picture, but it's just so...dull, I guess. After all, creativity is technically what this whole contest is about.

Amarise

...I'm iffy about this one. It's not neccesarily bad, or anything. It's just I'm not sure this subtext is the best subtext *for the signature*. Good job on creativity though!

Just imagine! Just imagine! Just imagine all the things that we - can be...

Heh, yeah, I remember that song too xD

Watericesage

It'd fit the signature, yes, but like Twizzler's, it's much too dull. Come on people! Work your imagination! Work your creativity! Work your originality! Work that pizzazz! Um, yeah.

Ledi

What can I say? It's great, I'd say one of the best if not *the* best this round. It's not bland, it's original and it still goes with the signature. Great job!

Maniac

It's pretty good, and great for the signature but something just doesn't sound right...

Twinkle

Aren't those lilly pads? Anyway! Your subtext is alriiiight. It could go on the signature, I suppose, but I think you should focus on the main, the most standing-out (Is the a word? =P) picture. In this case, the water lillies.

Hellyer

Nice subtext. It fits with the signature in a subtle way, and is creative and unique. I know with Twinkle I said to focus more on the main picture, but for me, there are exceptions, like your subtext. I think it goes really well with the signature even if it doesn't focus on the water lillies.

The_dog_god

This one just doesn't make much sense when you put it with the signature.

Eliminate: The_dog_god, Amarise, Twizzler, Watericesage

((New round coming up later today...))

I'm out, then. (Yes, I bothered to tally up the votes myself) I had fun, but if there's another one I'm definately going for Judge next time. Bye all, I'll be watching carefully.

Actually...xjox will have until tomorrow to choose the last person she's going to eliminate, and then I'll post the next sig xD

Doesn't matter. I and two other people have four votes, and one person has three votes. No matter who xjox may choose, I'm going to be out this round.

Ooops sorry guys, I completely forgot about that... Sorry to hold things up, anyway I was torn between TDG and Twiz, not that it will make too much difference in the final decision but I eliminate Twizzler0171.
