All right, judgings are now in! All the judges agree that this competition is getting harder and harder to critique as it progresses. We're really poking at things we'd normally overlook because all of your entries are so excellent. :D

Anyway, here they are!

In first place, we have a TIE!! This means that both Bitsy and ChickenSensei will move on to the final round, both coming away with 23.7 points.

In turn, Strangel received an outstanding 23.4. Can you tell how close it is? Strangel, your entries have been wonderful time and time again, and we will really miss you & Sheba. (Feel free to post any good-bye pics like Cel did, I know I'd love to see them!) *hug**hug**hug*

Here are the individual scores:

ChickenSensei
Creativity: 4.7/5
Photo skills: 4.7/5
Originality: 4.5/5
Word fluency: 4.8/5
Instructions: 5/5
TOTAL: 23.7/25
"I loved the holiday snap-style photos, very cute, and her spellings were adorable! Her facial expressions as well- too cute! As usual, a pretty, well thought-out entry."
"Adorable Spelling! I love the fish named bob :D"

Strangel
Creativity: 4.7/5
Photo skills: 4.7/5
Originality: 4.7/5
Word fluency: 4.3/5
Instructions: 5/5
TOTAL: 23.4/25
"The pictures were amazing! I especially loved the one with her father's 'problem' :D"
"Again, the scrapbook idea was really pretty to look at, and the things added were a lovely touch. I liked her Daddy turning into a werewolf halfway through the holiday, and the hawaii idea was fun! Lovely entry."

Bitsy
Creativity: 4.8/5
Photo skills: 4.6/5
Originality: 5/5
Word fluency: 4.6/5
Instructions: 4.7/5
TOTAL: 23.7/25
"Alithiel's elven lineage really has given you a lot of scope for imaginative entries in this competition, and this was certainly no exception, the story was wonderful! The photos were as stunning as ever, and Alithiel almost looks prettier each round! Great job!"
"Once again, your entry is beautiful! The plotline was amazing, what with all the possibilities that Alithiel's wonderful world offers. Awesome job! :)"
______

CONGRATS TO YOU ALL, and a special pat on the back to Bitsy and Nathan-- the FINAL ROUND BEGINS HERE!

-faints dead away-

LOL

Seriously, this was a great deal of fun, TB. I hope you decide to take it to another season! And seeing as Sheba and Opal are a day or two from teenifying, I can breathe a sigh of relief. LOL
I'll be posting her goodbye once I get sims reinstalled (doing a clean wipe, errors..) and my folders put back in place!

-joins Strangel in their faint-

Wow, I was not expecting to make it this round, seriously. I even had two good bye pictures taken already. :oops: Strangel, your entry was great and I'm going to miss Sheba!

I already have ideas buzzing around of what to do for this last round. I have to get it done this week because hubby is graduating next week so family is flying in and we're going to be partying all that weekend. *rock*

Aw, we're going to miss you, Strangel dear! *hug* But I'm going to have to ask you one thing -- will you please show us Sheba and Opal as teens?! I know they're going to be gorgeous!!

And speaking of which, I'd love it if Nathan and Bitsy would keep May Belle and Alithiel, so that when I introduce the next season or whatever I'll have a "hostess," kinda. :D

That's a good idea, TB! A hostess would be cute :)

And Strangel, you did awesome! I'm sorry to see you and Sheba go.

Nathan and Bitsy- Congratulations! A tie isn't too common, so be prond of yourselves! I think Boolprop would be happy with either one of you as winners :)

I do plan on turning on aging and playing their combined birthday soon, just need to trim down my downloads folder a bit so the neighborhood (has a LOT of sims in it LOL) doesn't run so slow and choppy. Then I'll post the pics as her goodbye here! However, I think I'll wait till after these two have posted their entries so's not to fark anything. *thumbsup*

Re: Little Miss Sunshine - Deadline extended... Again....

Postby ChickenSensei on May 27th, 2007, 6:19 am

I have a question regarding what-your-entry-can-and-can't-be...would it be okay, at the end of the entry, to have teenage May Belle looking back on the pictures for this round...?

I think so, just as long as you show more pictures of her as a kid. :)

I was so excited today! My special guest was coming! I was really excited, but mommy said that if I just watched out the window the entire time, my special guest would seem to come slower. So I decided to write a letter to the Little Miss Sunshine people in my diary! I wrote about what I would do if I was Little Miss Sunshine. I told them about how I learned lots about being a good Little Miss Sunshine during this competition and by competing with the other girls. I learned a lot from them! If I was to be crowned Little Miss Sunshine, I would try to teach other girls about how not only being pretty matters, it matters if you're a good nice person and you like to help people! Without the help of my new pageant friends, I would still the immature May Belle I used to be! But that was when I was seven and a half. Now I'm ALMOST 8!!! And I've grown up lots, too!!
Image
But after I finished writing my letter, I couldn't think of anything else to write...the only think I could think of was waiting for my special guest! But I couldn't wait- at all! Luckily, the bell rang a few minutes later. MY SPECIAL GUEST WAS HEREEE! YIPEE!"
Image
[i]There she was! In PERSON! It was Ailthiel! I had known her for this whole competition, and I was FINALLY meeting her! She was even more pretty in person! I had told her in my letter to make sure she wore human clothes, so she would blend in more. If she wore her elfy robes around, I don't think people would think she was normal, and my friend should feel welcome when I am the host!

Image
I ran up to her and gave her a BIG hug! And she hugged me back! I guess elves and humans both know how to give good hugs! I was so glad to finally be meeting her- I had even made us a scheddial for the day! First we were going to the city, then to the pool, and then we'd have a SLUMBER PARTY!
Image
We went into the city that day! Ailthiel didn't look too familiar with the city, but I was helping her around. She wasn't very used to the tall brick buildings and airplanes that flew above- it must be different than in her magic elf world.
Image
First place we went was the gardens! We sat in the flowers and looked up at the sky to see special cloud shapes! I saw an elephant, a gerbil, and a garbage can! She said she could only see clouds...hm.
Image
And you can't go to the gardens without a game of hide-and-seek tag in the hedges! I taught Ailthiel how to play and she learned to play quickly!
Image
Little did she know I was the master of hide-and-seek tag! Hehe!
Image
Then we went swimming in the pool! Ailthiel sure knew about swimming- but I don't think she had seen a waterslide before, because she went on it lots! I think about 50 times!
Image
Then, after we dried off, we had our SLUMBER PARTY! We ate Cheetohs and ate cupcakes and watched The Princess Diares 2! It was so fun, but I was so sad she had to leave tomorrow! I hope we see each other again!
Image
Here I am, May Belle. I'm 17 now, in High School, and doing fine. I'm a great student, but I'm a heckuva lot different than I was as a child. I'm no where near being a girly-girl now, huh? Ailthiel and I see each other near every summer, and we always have a blast with each other. I remember all of the fun times we had together competing in the LMS. Anyway, my boyfriend just pulled up in his car, we're going out to eat. See ya!

Wow May Blle is gorgous. I loved her cute ook as a kid. (She's like my Favorite sim kid of all time.) And she looks like a super model as a teen. You should be proud of yourself for creating her.

There's something very unique about her, isn't there? I know I love May Belle! And now we're just waiting to hear from Alithiel (and Bitsy :) ) .....

Aw ... I love May Belle. She's pretty, and sweet. She may be different when she's 17, but we all know who she really is ;).

On another note, I can't wait for season 2 (if there is one)! I'm downloading things for my girl now. You wouldn't belive how hard it is! I really hope there's a season 2. This is a great idea!
