PPT Subtext King/Queen

[xjox]

Well I speak on behalf of myself alone but as a judge I feel something entirely original is much better than something not yours that you chose to use

Absolutely agreed!!

Im a judge too and I think I would be more inclined to favour completely original pieces.

As a different judge, I third that.

[AutumnElf]

Well, the judges have spoken. Even if I disagreed, I'm hopelessly outnumbered ><

[.:Requiem:.]

I've got a question AE: If we use a quote from someone as the subtext, do we need to include who it's originally from or simply post the quote?

As in what someone has said to you or someone else once?

Yeah.

[AutumnElf]

Just post the quote.

[WIS]

Ooo, I just thought of another quote! Can I post this just for fun? My first subtext will still be the one being judged though.

Sure thing.

Grumpy old.... Queen?

[AutumnElf]

Twinkle, Amythest, and .:Requiem:. have until 12 PM tomorrow to enter. If they don't, that'll be a warning.

[TDG]

Amethyst = Yeah yeah, kill the messenger...

[AutumnElf]

Ah, ok then Twinkle and .:Requiem:. have until 12 PM today to enter.

[.:Requiem:.]

And....at exactly 11:58...I get it in. Yay me!

"The Royal Crown cures not the headache."

[AutumnElf]

><

I'm an idiot.

Why did I put 12:PM?

I meant 12:AM xDD

And that's in CST.

So 10:00 PM NST.

[.:Requiem:.]

X3...

[Twinkle]

Such a Royal tantrum!

(Sorry it's late, I had a huge exam today)

((And I'm not too sure of the time differences too!))

Judges, rate/comment the subtexts and choose three people to be eliminated.

Round 2 will mostly likely be up sometime tomorrow afternoon.

[TDG]

o_0 - The Kougra shown in the picture is made to be a Queen Kougra so your quote relating to a princess doesn't really fit in that aspect, however Queens are more dignified in real life and you wouldn't expect them to be upset as much as princess' so the quote relates in that sense. A nice quote which fits well with the Royal Kougra text

watericesage - Your quote doesn't really fit in with the rest of the signature, though the Kougra is angry / upset you need to relate your subtext to more than the picture. The main text says Royal Kougra so your subtext should be centered around that and "I chipped a nail" doesn't really relate to Kougras or Royals. I get the feeling you went for the quick laugh and that's it.

JellyFish72 - Your subtext is bordering the too long line. Remember that subtext isn't supposed to leap out and grab people's attention and the longer it is the more likely it will. Your quote relates well with the picture and main text, keep it slightly shorter in future rounds and you could go far

Kugetsu - Your text relates well with picture but you have to remember the main text should relate to the subtext as well. I'm not sure how you could relate it to both the pictue and the text while keeping the same basic message and not making it too long. It's good and I doubt you could improve on it much without changing the quote significantly

Ammer - A very good quote. Relating to both the beauty and majesty of the Kougra. Ties in well with the sense of royalty as well. There's not much else I can say except well done. Very well done

Robert2100 - A nice quote relating mostly to the Royal and Anger section of the signature. Remember to try and relate it to as many aspects of the signature as possible like the Kougra. Perhaps the quote would have been better as "Even queens have their days" to further relate to the picture of the Royal Girl Kougra. Room for some improvement but not a lot is needed

Ziggy - Like Jellyfish you are bordering the too long mark. Like I said above the longer your subtext is the more it's going to avert attention from the main text and picture. You related well to the Kougra, Royalty and Anger so the only real advice I can give you is to shorten your subtext a bit.

Dawn2 - You related well to the anger of the Kougra but not a lot else. While the quote is a nice one perhaps it would be better to try and relate to more than just one aspect, on the other hand focussing solely on one aspect can be very effective too but I think if you were going to focus on one section it should have been related to either Royalty or the Kougra as they are featured in the main text as well as the picture. A good quote but in future try to relate to more than one thing

Amethyst - While I do understand what you're getting at with your quote I can't say I like it that much in this context. The Royal Kougra is meant to be the main subject where's in your quote you make it seem like the messenger is the main subject. Your quote relates well with the Angry / Striking pose of the Kougra but not a lot else unfortunately. It is effective, though it could have been a lot more so

Tonu - The yawn by its self isn't very effective in this context. By itself it only sort of relates to the Kougra's pose where's if you had put a bit more in like hellyer then it would relate a lot more because it just backups the connections between the pose and the yawn

Hellyer - Unlike Tonu you have made the connection a lot more clear by effectively saying "I may look angry but in reality I am not" with a phrase that relates to the picture well. While it is rather effective I still can't help thinking a different quote relating more to the text as well as the picture may have been more effective

Amarise - A very nice conection between Mystery Island (Home to the Kougras) and Juppies (Fruits from Mystery Island). Also a good connection between the very angry Kougra and the harshness of the words. Though it's not a very strong link it also relates to how stuck up and snobbish people in positions of power such as royalty can be. A very nice phrase that would be very effective on a signature like the one provided. Well done, you could go far in this competition if you maintain this quality

Harmony crystals - The rawr is the only section that I feel relates to the signature at all. I think it would have been more effective to leave it as Rawr! than to add "have you seen my brush ??" at the end which doesn't seem to relate to the subtext itself. The brush section would have been effective and in place if the Kougras fur had been ruffled more but in the picture provided it seems sleek and groomed well. Remember, just because there is more words doesn't mean it's better

DM was on fire! - The two sentances seem fairly independant of each other. Perhaps just one of them (EG : I'll tear you up to pieces) would be more effective, or you could have combined the two (EG : I tear all challengers to shreds). Also the "up" seems out of place in the second sentance, perhaps just "I'll tear you to pieces" or something. Relates well to the fighting pose as well as the fierceness of Kougras. Just work on the wording a bit more and you'll go far in this competition

Kitten Medli - Relating well to the Royalty in both the text and the picture and the anger in the image. However the phrase just sounds odd, especially if you read the text and then the subtext which most people will be doing "Royal Kougra, Royal Anger Management at your service." doesn't seem right. A nice quote but it just sounds a bit...off.

.:Requiem - I like this quote. Relating to the Royalty and the pose but also relating to the fact that some believe being in a position of power would solve everything for them and that everything would be easy for them. A nice job, well done

Twinkle - I have mixed feelings about this, while it does relate to the anger and the royalty it seems like it wouldn't fit in a signature like this. Perhaps if the background was a darker colour it would, I can't really explain it so I can't really give you advice but I feel that the wording doesn't suit the signature well. Can't explain it so for now I'll ignore it seeing how I can't give you any advice
