Before we get to the ratings, I would like to thank all the contestants for playing, all the judges for their time and effort in judging, everyone who submitted a signature and saved me from making moe crappy ones and everyone that donated money to the prizes. Also, thank you all for your patience, I know I haven't always been on time.
On to the ratings!

Ammer
Coppered
Seems a little boring, then again, there isn't much happening in the picture. I like the simplicity, but it seems dull, when there is a lot of space to fill. An okay subtext, but nothing extraordinary. 5/10
Anoohilator
A Touch of Class.
I like this one, it is a rather classy signature, I go as far as glamourous. This fits in with the signature, and could refer to Robert as being classy too. A nice effort here. 8/10
the_dog_god
A polished finish...
This is quite nice, the signature is very shiny and could also refer to Robert as a great finished article. Cheeky Tongue I think it lacks elegance in comparison to Noo's, though. 7/10
Ammer
Victim of multiple personalities.
Awww, this one made me giggle. It suits the signature perfectly, I think this is an excellent job. I couldn't really fault this, though, I don't think it has the slickness of TDG's. 9/10
Anoohilator
You always know *fade* how I'm feeling Smile
This is a little confusing, the signature is of many smilies, so you wouldn't always know how the person would be feeling. I like the fade, I think there isn't much space that would seem sutible for text on here. 5/10
the_dog_god
Emot-I-can*fade*...and emote-I-will...*fade and repeat*
This is an excellent subtext, again, great fade and excellent word play. I love this one, perfect, really. 10/10
Ammer
Pasture of Grey
This is quite nice, it describes the colour and setting. The word pasture was nice, but, it doesn't have the spark needed. A solid attempt. 7/10
Anoohilator
The quiet life...
I think this is nice too, I associate cows with farms, often referred to as a quiet life. It doesn't really shine though. 7/10
the_dog_god
The bovine beauty
This is a really nice subtext, the alliteration is excellent, and it seems comical, but excellently done. I can't fault it really. It incorperates all I'd want in a subtext. 10/10

Well, this was certainly an interesting round. Having three final sets was a new addition to the game, and not something I expected.
I want to congratulate all three of you for making it this far, there were some very difficult rounds for you to go through to get here.
Ammer-Coppered
I actually liked Copperfield better, as it was a play on both the name David Copperfield, and the fact that the entire image is a golden color. As it is, I don't think there's that much to this subtext. It doesn't really say anything other than it's copper, and maybe that Robert has been coppered.
4/10Anoohilator-A Touch of Class.
I kind of like this. It's a very elegant font that's being used for the name Robert, plus it referrs to the fact that it's an image that looks somewhat like a precious metal. (Or perhaps some type of gold colored crystal?) Either way, I think this is a good match for the picture.
6/10the_dog_god-A polished finish...
Ehhh, it's okay, but it lacks something....... I can see that you're going for something elegant, to match the picture, but I don't think this quite suits it.
5/10Ammer-Victim of multiple personalities.
It's cute. This is kind of a cute-yet-sassy picture, and I like the way you indicate that there's more than one type of emoticon in the background. I also think the subtext matches the font used for the name Sasha, in some weird way.
7/10Anoohilator-You always know *fade* how I'm feeling
I like this one, too. There's a wide range on emotions shown in this picture, and your subtext clearly indicates that Sasha is not going to keep her feelings to herself.
7/10the_dog_god-Emot-I-can*fade*...and emote-I-will...*fade and repeat*
I don't like this one quite as much as the other two. I do think it fits the image, but something about it just doesn't 'pop' to me. I think it's not quite as sassy as the image requires..... It's not bad, it's just my personal prefference goes more towards the other subtexts.
6/10Ammer-Pasture of Grey
Well, it IS a grey pasture, but I think this isn't really descriptive enough. Since the entire image is grey, perhaps something about depressed, or maybe something about tired or lazy, since the cow kind of looks like she's closing her eyes.
6/10Anoohilator-The quiet life...
I think this is a good subtext. The picture on the whole is very muted, and the cow does appear to be closing her eyes. (At least, to me.) And most people think of a peaceful, quiet life when they think of country living.
7/10the_dog_god-...the Bovine Beauty
I think this is a fine subtext for a cow image, in and of itself, but since the entire image is various shades of black and white, I think a more muted subtext would fit better.

WARNING FROM THE JUDGE: This is the last round. I'm going to rate you tough and hound you like dogs. That's the way it goes. Be prepared for some hardness or don't read my ratings.
Ammer CopperedSince this is the last round, and we're looking for top of the top. Best of the best. This really doesn't cut it for me. It works, but this is definitely not Subtext King/Queen material. For one, it's very short. One word subtexts rarely ever work. For two, all this really does is describe the color. Not the feeling or Robert. But, as I said, it works, even if it works minimally- so you get points for that.
6/10.
Anoohilator A Touch of Class.Like Ammer's, it's okay. I like how you used the word classy, because the signature does look quite fancy. Other than that, all I have to say is that it's pretty borderline for a final round subtext.
7/10.
the_dog_god A polished finish...This is my favorite one for this signature, I think. I like the word polished, because the signature does have the sparkles on it, and polished is a good substitute for a boring word like sparkled. Good job.
9/10.
Ammer Victim of multiple personalities.This is my favorite for the signature. It describes the emoticans in more than just being stupid and silly, and adds sarcasm and wit (both of which I'm fans of). Good job.
10/10.
Anoohilator You always know *fade* how I'm feeling I don't like this one at all. It seems just very boring. The fade doesn't work for this subtext, either. Besides that, there's nothing I can think of to rate on- you don't give me enough to rate.
4/10.
the_dog_god Emot-I-can*fade*...and emote-I-will...*fade and repeat*I like this one. Wordplay is great, as I've been saying since the beginning. The fade works well here, too, which is a good thing- considering I hate fades and will rarely find occasions where I like them. Good job.
9/10.
Ammer Pasture of GreyI don't like this one. If there is a big cow right in the main focus of the signature, what's the point of describing the pasture? I can see how you thought it would be creative, and it does work on some sets, but that occasion just really is not now.
6/10.
Anoohilator The quiet life...I don't like this one much, either. The cow is pretty much up and in your face, and nothing about this signature seems quiet. Like Ammer, you tried to go for more creativity than this signature could take, and I know you could have done better.
5/10.
the_dog_god ...the Bovine BeautyThis is the only subtext this signature that I like and think goes well with the signature. You used a well known saying and made it apply beautifully. For the third time this round, you did a wonderful job. I'm really proud of how you did this time around.
10/10.

Ammer -
CopperedThis seems way too short for the space provided. It also doesn't sound very nice. A really good alternative and still keep that copper theme is 'Coppertone'.
5/10Anoohilator -
A Touch of Class.This is okay, it has a bit of relation with the signature... not all that good though, a bit boring. I agree that the signature looks 'classy' however.
6/10the_dog_god -
A polished finish...I like this one a bit better than the other ones, it does look rather polished. It would work better if the signature was shinier or something. (And not a gif) This one's not bad.
7.5/10Ammer -
Victim of multiple personalities.This one's nice. I like how it also refers to the person (Robert), well. It works well with the signature, good job.
8/10Anoohilator -
You always know *fade* how I'm feeling I like this one, the fade works really well here. Works well with the signature, also has that cute feeling.
8/10the_dog_god -
Emot-I-can*fade*...and emote-I-will...*fade and repeat*The wordplay here is somewhat clever, but that's just it. It doesn't really make sense, it's really just wordplay. I like the fade however.
5.5/10Ammer -
Pasture of GreyI like this one, it suits the signature well. It can also be right below Betsy, so it would be almost like 'Betsy, on a Pasture of Grey.' It sounds a bit serious for the signature though.
8.5/10Anoohilator -
The quiet life...I'm iffy on this one. The black and whiteness, does make it look quiet. Perhaps this would be much better, if you had simply added a 'Living' in front of it.
7/10the_dog_god -
...the Bovine BeautyFirst of all, I like how this refers to Betsy, and everything. But I dont think this is the signature where you refer to it as beautiful. Sounds a bit too serious for the signature. Props for Double 'B's, making it catchier.

Judges Notes:Congratulations on making it to the end. Overall, I think this was an excellent round. The three of you deserve to be here with out a doubt (I had actually predicted after the first round that two of you would). Again, do not take any of these ratings, or the ratings through out the game, personally. They were just my opinions. I hope you all had fun, because it was a lot of fun running it.
Ammer Coppered
You incorporated the colour well, but it is too short. Look at the room you have, something longer would have been better I think. 5/10
Anoohilator A Touch of Class.
A good length, and I think it fits well. I think this one is a tad on the boring side, but it is still a nice fit. 7/10
the_dog_god A polished finish...
I liked this one the best. The signature looked as though it may have been polished, it has that ‘shiny’ look to it. Also, the length is good. The only thing I don’t really like is the ‘…’. 8/10
Ammer Victim of multiple personalities.
I like this one. The signature has the potential for an ‘out-there’ subtext, or a ‘wacky’ (bad choice of words, can’t find the right one) subtext. And you did that. Excellent job! 9/10
Anoohilator You always know *fade* how I'm feeling
This one is an alright subtext, but as for the signature, I don’t think it would fit that well. It seems too serious for this signature. The fade doesn’t help either. Fades don’t usually work well on signatures without a serious mood. 4/10
the_dog_god Emot-I-can*fade*...and emote-I-will...*fade and repeat*
I really like the wordplay here. Like I said with Ammer, this signature has lots of room for subtexts that are fun, humerous, and/or wordplay. You did that, and I think it worked very well. 8/10
Ammer Pasture of Grey
I am really on the fence with this one. I like how you described the feel of the signature, and the setting, but you ignored the cow. The cow is the main focus of the signature and you left it out. I think ‘Her Pasture of Grey’ would have work so much better. 6/10
Anoohilator The quiet life...
When I think of black and white, I think of quiet. Cows also seem like very boring, quiet animals, so that is why I really like this one. I think it would work pretty well on this signature. 7/10
the_dog_god ...the Bovine Beauty
I like this one. You got the cow, and the name in the subtext and that is very good. I like the ‘…’ though, it really captures the mood of the signature. Good work. 8/10
