Prettiest Profile Contest (Spring PT Edition)
 


:: GENERAL INFORMATION
PPC in Pokémon Trivia?

That's right, PC's Prettiest Profile Contest now has a Pokemon Trivia edition! For those of you who don't know, the Prettiest Profile Contest originated over in Other Trivia, where it would take place every three months. However, during a month when Other Trivia is not hosting a Contest, Pokemon Trivia will be hosting it's own version of the Prettiest Profile Contest, specifically for Pokemon Profiles!

What is the 'Prettiest Profile Contest?'

The Prettiest Profile Contest is a bi-monthly competition in which PC's best profile designers compete against each other in order to win the title of "PC's Prettiest Profile". These users are then awarded an emblem as well as knowing that they have the prettiest profile. In this Pokemon Trivia Edition, it is pretty much the same, except with a different emblem, and Pokemon related profiles.



:: THE PRIZE

Pokémon Trivia's Prettiest Profile Contest Winner
Congrats! With the help of Smeargle, you have made your profile the prettiest of the contest bunch.


:: RULES

★ All General PC Rules and Other Trivia Rules apply. Having common sense about behavior towards others should be a given.

★ Because this is techinically a different contest from that of the original PPC, past winners of PC'S PPC may participate in this edition.

★ To enter, simply post here indicating that you wish to do so. You can change your profile any way you like before the voting period. After that, you may not change it in any way.

★ All Profiles must be Pokemon related. For those you can't think of anything (like non-supporters, who don't have the image option other than the profile image) having colors that resemble a Pokemon and having the Pokemon somewhere on the profile is an option.

★ Please enter during the entry period. No other entries will be allowed.

★ For participants, voting is mandatory. Twilight Sky and I reserve the right to pester you to vote if you have yet to vote when the deadline is near. If you fail to send a vote, you will be disqualified. Refer to the ballot down below for more information.

★ To vote, send your ballot to Twilight Sky via PM. Also, do not bother myself or Forever about the results. Forever will be doing her best to tally up the votes with the highest amount of accuracy so no one will be wronged, so be patient.

★ You must vote for at least 2 supporters and 2 non-supporters. An optional third vote for both categories is allowed. You must also vote an even number of times (so no voting for 1, 3, or 5 people).

:: PARTICIPANTS

Check out these profiles and cast your vote for who do you think has the prettiest one. Please view the profiles using the vBulletin Default Skin so your decision can be more neutral. You can switch back to the skin you like afterwards by going to User CP -> Switch Forum Styles. Or, to make it easier, just click the names and it'll take you to the profiles with the default skin.

There are some tutorials to help you with your profile here and here.

Why hello there, Profile Contest. What's that? You want me to enter? Sure, I'll enter.

Bluerang1 May 21st, 2011 10:44 AM

Do characters in Pokemon count? If so, I'd like to enter my profile :D

Hikamaru May 21st, 2011 7:06 PM

A profile contest?

Can I enter please cos I love looking at user profiles!

Sewaddle May 21st, 2011 7:07 PM

/enters

If I somehow end up winning with this account, I want the emblem on my main. Though you probably figured that would be the case already.

Oryx May 21st, 2011 7:15 PM

Question: Does it have to be an actual Pokemon? I'd like to enter with the Oak theme I have now but it's the Pokemon manga and not an actual Pokemon. Is that alright or no?

Alternative May 21st, 2011 7:40 PM

@Toujours It has to be a Pokemon theme. It doesn't matter if it's an actual Pokemon, or anything like that, but as long as it's something to do with Pokemon, so you can make a theme based on Professor Oak if you wish.

Oh, and entering this. I'll change my profile before the contest starts.

alisaie May 21st, 2011 7:47 PM

Pretty much what Alternative said. /should really add that to the explanation. Been meaning to but eh. lazy.

I'll update the list in a bit.

AshPikastar May 21st, 2011 7:54 PM

Oh another PPC but this time in the Pokemon Trivia? This should be a lot of fun I'm in. I've been meaning to change my profile theme.

Oryx May 21st, 2011 9:21 PM

In that case, I'll enter. :3

Binary May 21st, 2011 11:57 PM

I think I'll enter. rawr. ;3
help me Smeargle. <3

Charizard★ May 22nd, 2011 7:52 AM

I'll enter mine. Not as creative, but let's see how this plays out.

marcc5m May 22nd, 2011 7:59 AM

Join plz. Time for a profile change methinks.

Kip May 22nd, 2011 8:16 AM

I'm up for entering mine ^^ Mudkiiiiiiiiiiiiiip!

alisaie May 22nd, 2011 12:43 PM

Updated. Be sure that if your profile is not Pokemon Related that it is before the deadline.

Aquacorde May 22nd, 2011 1:06 PM

Entering~ I quite like the one I have now.

solarowl May 22nd, 2011 3:08 PM

Well, seeing as I'm a supporter now, I sadly have to be against a bunch of great profile designers.
Well, I'm joining, since I'm Porygon-Z themed, and I thought I might as well try.
But looking at other user's profiles, I know I don't have much of a shot. Oh well. XD

Hybrid Trainer May 22nd, 2011 4:07 PM

Since i am finally proud of my profile i shall enter this contest!
Sign me up :D

alisaie May 22nd, 2011 4:11 PM

@solarowl: it looks like hybird trainer made your profile; you cant enter it if its not your own work. :x

Meganium May 22nd, 2011 4:41 PM

I guess I can give the PPC another try. Besides I do have a Meganium theme as my profile design. Sign me up! :)

インフェルノの津波 May 22nd, 2011 4:45 PM

I'll join, expect a crappy profile though!

Masqueraine May 22nd, 2011 5:09 PM

I'll be joining with an Archen or Archeops, possibly even Druddigon, whichever goes best with my color scheme I have now.. XD

Regeneration May 23rd, 2011 12:27 AM

I'll enter in too. :D

I hope I get the time to work on something better than my current one. ;-;

AshPikastar May 23rd, 2011 8:24 AM

Do you want us to take screenshots of our profile?

alisaie May 23rd, 2011 1:39 PM

You're not required to, but it's recommended due to the problems we've had in the past. You know, just to be sure. (The strange thing is we never have the problem in PPC. Only in PT!PPC. Idek. xD; )

I'll update asap.

solarowl May 23rd, 2011 7:49 PM

Alright, then I'll drop out. XD
Not that you entered me in yet anyway.

derozio May 24th, 2011 10:15 AM

Yo, I'd like to enter. :D

Miss Doronjo May 24th, 2011 10:41 AM

I'm going to enter. =)

I'm going to work on my profile before the contest starts~

alisaie May 24th, 2011 1:19 PM

List is updated!

I'm glad you could make it Derodero! Remembering that you said you were going to be gone one-two weeks made me wonder if you were going to miss it. xD:

derozio May 24th, 2011 10:20 PM

I actually thought that I'd miss it too, Tara. Glad I could make it in time! :D

And I guess the competition this time around will be tougher than last time. Good luck to everybody who's gonna participate. Hope more and more people enter it! <3

Legendary Silke May 25th, 2011 12:03 AM

All right then, I'm going to enter this contest.

alisaie May 25th, 2011 9:46 PM

Added. I'm going to be a bit busy for the next few days, but I should be around to add anyone else who wants to participate to the list before voting period starts. No worries there.

mzmingle May 25th, 2011 11:25 PM

can i still join?
if so, i'm in!

vaporeon7 May 26th, 2011 2:42 AM

I'll enter, with my profile based on Absol, NOT VAPOREON.

alisaie May 26th, 2011 4:16 AM

Updated. I need to go start packing. The list probably won't be updated until Saturday, for those who decide to pop in an participate after this post.

Osha_say_wott?! May 28th, 2011 7:01 PM

Last minute entry for me.^^ I have an hour left to spruce up my profile. P: Let's Bloo this. n_n

alisaie May 28th, 2011 7:54 PM

Well damn! I came on right on time, didn't I. Adding you right now!

Edit: Voting process has now officially started. All votes are to go to Twilight Sky (whom I shall put a link to on the first post asap).

インフェルノの津波 May 29th, 2011 2:33 AM

Take me out, sorry I forgot about this TBH.

Hybrid Trainer May 29th, 2011 5:13 AM

I voted ^-^

Good luck to everyone! :D

Sewaddle May 29th, 2011 6:31 AM

Also voted~ Though I have a suggestion: I'm also noticing this in the OT PPC layout too, but for future PPCs can either the ballot or list of entrants be swapped so people don't accidentally vote for Supporters/Staff under the Non-Supporters section and Non-Supporters under the Supporters/Staff section. I know it's not that big a deal, but Idk.

Though I have to admit while Nica's tut. for bigger Supporter profile pics is a good idea, depending on the skin/browser I use the size of the profile pics causes the usernames/Supporter bars to go behind the tables on the right, which ultimately helped me decide not to vote for those who had it like that. It may be a bit unfair, but hey. I'm very picky when it comes to choosing graphics and the like.

Alternative May 29th, 2011 7:31 AM

Just coming in to say I voted, and nearly forgot to vote, but I didn't, so I should be in the running to win but I won't. Good luck to everyone btw. :)

mzmingle May 30th, 2011 10:13 AM

um...Vaporeon7 is a supporter...

Esper May 30th, 2011 11:19 AM

Forgot to post saying that I voted.

I am now posting to say that I voted.

Aquacorde May 30th, 2011 11:34 AM

Voted~ Good luck to everyone that deserves it~

alisaie May 30th, 2011 4:23 PM

vaporeon7 was not a supporter when he signed up. therefore, he's has a non-supporter profile and will be treated as a non-supporter for this competition.

...but the first post specifies that it's recommended for everyone to view the profiles in the vB default skin. ;-;

Hey, I'm concerned about this 'cause my profile looks really weird on other themes. ;;

Meganium May 30th, 2011 9:36 PM

I just voted! Best of luck to everyone! All of the profiles look super amaaaazing. :)

Miss Doronjo May 31st, 2011 2:10 AM

I too voted already.

Good luck to everyone and such~

Legendary Silke May 31st, 2011 6:51 AM

OK, people, I have voted. Let's hope that this contest goes as smoothly as possible, and good luck, as always! I think this is going to be a tight competition - I had a hard time choosing who to vote for!

...And the links on the first page are linked so that it specifically changes to said default skin whether one likes it or not.

Osha_say_wott?! June 1st, 2011 7:28 PM

Yay for voting~! You peeps made it a hard choice. Stop being so awesome. xD Good luck to everyone^^

Oryx June 5th, 2011 11:16 AM

Dear PPC: You should end early so Vaporeon and I can play with our Supporter profiles. :<

Love, Toujours.

I'd second that because i'm itching to play around with my profile x]

alisaie June 6th, 2011 12:46 PM

That's all your guys' fault for becoming supporters (or whatever) during the competition. :B

But speaking of supporters, Erik (インフェルノの津波) changed his profile during the competition and is now disqualified. If you voted for his profile, please resubmit with a new vote in place. n_n

Aquacorde June 6th, 2011 6:35 PM

Er. Me nether. I don't think I had voted for him but idek.

alisaie June 6th, 2011 7:01 PM

I'm sure Twilight Sky would be happy to tell you if you ask through PM. n_n

Esper June 8th, 2011 8:21 AM

Feels like a month has gone by since I voted. I hope having such a long voting period means a lot of votes.

Meganium June 8th, 2011 8:32 AM

I cleaned out my inbox so I have no idea who I voted. >_<

But there's only about 3-4 days left till the results, right? lol

alisaie June 9th, 2011 1:00 PM

Actually, the voting period always lasts two weeks, so it's not abnormal or anything. xD;

donavannj June 9th, 2011 4:41 PM

Alrighty! Voted in a PPC for once. There were some pretty cool profiles out there.

That's...actually more than I expected ._.; Pretty dang good though, I must say.

Can't wait to see the results :D

TwilightBlade June 9th, 2011 6:48 PM

Good stuff mate, but my snaplinks didn't work when opening the entries. :(

Binary June 11th, 2011 1:49 AM

Okay, voted. I've been busy and stuff, but you need not bother me Twilight Sky. :D;
Good luck everyone. C:

Masqueraine June 11th, 2011 1:24 PM

Voted~

Not to say I don't wanna be in this but I hope it ends soon. XD I wanna change my profile.

derozio June 12th, 2011 7:30 AM

Good look to everyone who participated! Figured I should say this before the results are out. :3

Only like 1 and a half hour left, I suppose? Probably won't be awake when the results will be announced. :<

12:00 AM Eastern Standard Time June 12th 2011


Voting ended nearly 12 hours ago :3 But it's not like the results should pop up immediately after it ended o3o

Can't wait to see who won~

alisaie June 12th, 2011 7:52 AM

Well you know. There's things called lives. I'm sure Derk will post the results when he gets the time to.

Alternative June 12th, 2011 8:21 AM

Before the results are announced, I'm just going to wish everyone one more good luck for that top prize. :)

Dude, take your time. Your health is much more important than some silly contest.

Hope you feel better soon!

Don't worry, Derk. There's no rush for me right now. You take your time. :)

alisaie June 12th, 2011 9:19 PM

Alllrighty guys. Here are the results. They don't have the number of votes on them, so if you want to know that (if you topped first three or not) you can see 'bout asking Derk. :)

Winners + Top Three of Non Supporters/Staff:

1. Scarf(winner)

2. Toujours/Binary(both placed in second)
3. Twiggy

Winners + Top Three of Supporters/Staff

1. Ms Doronjo(winner)
2. Kip
3. Derozio

Binary June 13th, 2011 2:26 AM

Congratulations Scarf and Ms Doronjo. Really well deserved, you guys. ;)
Congratulations to the people who placed too. And I'm sure everyone had fun. :D

Sewaddle June 13th, 2011 4:11 AM

Ahh, 8 votes? That's actually more than I expected o3o

Congrats, Shawn and Scarf! You both deserve to be winners ^_^

Esper June 13th, 2011 7:09 AM

I'm pretty happy with these results, of course, but because we got an extra winner in one of the top three. Seriously, it was hard for me to pick three because there were a lot of fun and different profiles which deserved to win. Congrats to everyone.

AshPikastar June 13th, 2011 11:00 AM

Aww I didn't get any votes but oh well I had fun. Congratues you guys! This was a hard contest.

Masqueraine June 13th, 2011 3:05 PM

Good job everyone, hopefully I'll be participating next time to. :]

And I think it's funny that my new profile is better than the one I entered into the contest. XD In my opinion anyways.

so, did i get zero votes or something?

And wow I actually got 7 votes. Now I can change my profile. :D

If your name didn't appear on Autumn's list, you probably didn't get any. Then again, he may have accidentally skipped over the number of votes you got much like he did AshPikastar's.

I'm quite surprised that I got 4 votes. Honestly, I had so much fun with the contest, especially that I've done my best profile design. I really hope to do this again soon. Congratulations to Doronjo and Scarf for winning! You two deserved it! :)
