Posted October 1, 2013 Username: Angelicdragonpuppy Category: Creepiest / Most Frightening Dragon Name: Legion's Lament Description Link: http://dragcave.net/lineage/m8sN I love creepy Halloweeny descriptions! Still not sure if I should've used him or one of these three, and there are probably others I'm just not remembering right now. X'D So the other categories are still Funniest, Most Original, and Best Overall, right? Also--many thanks to those who voted for me last round <3 Kudos to Karyorrhexis too, a very well-written, sad story--perhaps his owner will see fit to enter him again Share this post Link to post

Posted October 1, 2013 (edited) ...bwahaha, I approve of the extra category. <3 It's tough picking something for it, though, most of my descriptions flirt with those designations. I've... not got a one-track mind, no, I'm totally capable of writing happy stories. In theory. Sometimes. ...um, uh... welp, look at the time, gotta run.

Posted October 12, 2013 Is it okay to bump this to give it some more exposure? We've got so few nominations so far. :s Share this post Link to post
Posted October 12, 2013 (edited) Let me guess, I can't enter because nothing's approved yet? Typical, Pi'illo would work well here. X3 Edit: Yay for ruby!

One, what all the other categories are for this round (if you look through the entries, it seems a lot of people aren't sure whether there's three or four this round... and I'm still uncertain myself), and two, if people can vote for their own entries? If people are allowed to do so I'd like to suggest that they can't, for obvious reasons Edited October 13, 2013 by angelicdragonpuppy Share this post Link to post
Posted October 13, 2013 X3 Thanks? I missed the last category. Whoops. So I'll fix that: Username: Enigmatron Category: Best Overall Dragon Name: Ghirahim and Fi Description Link: http://dragcave.net/lineage/mYDVJ Share this post Link to post
Posted October 13, 2013 Zelda reference! Zelda reference! Man so many nice entries so far, even with so few people entered--I love all of yours, Hawk (poor babies, all of them!) and I am still a giant sucker for Pink's tragic Gold dragon. <3 (Sob of course I like all the sad ones, bad me, bad me indeed ;A; ) Share this post Link to post
Posted October 13, 2013 Edit: Wow Enigmatron your dragons are terrifying ;A; *hides her bbies* ...I'm in love. (Sob of course I like all the sad ones, bad me, bad me indeed ;A; ) Well, I regularly torture my characters and the characters of my friends in my IRC RP, so... you're in good company when it comes to being a terrible person. I've not actually had the balls to write a description like I'd like to write it, honestly, because I'm scared of the threat of moderator reject (even if it's totally harmless) and I remind myself kids play this game. ...Enigmatron's making me reconsider. *biggest grin* Share this post Link to post
Posted October 13, 2013 I am? Glad to hear I'm helping out. I need something besides my main OC to take out the tortures of my old school on, so~ (she's taken enough damage >>) I'll read stuff in the morning, I'm tired. Good luck people~ Share this post Link to post
Posted October 13, 2013 Zelda reference! Zelda reference! Man so many nice entries so far, even with so few people entered--I love all of yours, Hawk (poor babies, all of them!) and I am still a giant sucker for Pink's tragic Gold dragon. <3 (Sob of course I like all the sad ones, bad me, bad me indeed ;A; ) Thank you Yours are absolutely hilarious. My "funny" ones probably wouldn't get a smile... But hey. Sad descriptions are underrated anyways (like most of mine...). I agree: Eni, your descriptions are truly frightening. Your dragons must be seriously messed up It's good to see this topic hasn't died like last month's. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 13, 2013 They're not all messed-up, are they? Are they? Obsidian's not that bad, he's just based on one of my characters and a Magi curse was the best way to dragonise what happened to his ancestor... Share this post Link to post
Posted October 23, 2013 (edited) Hello there guys and girls This is a bump to give more people the chance to participate. Just to clarify - this month we have 4 categories (one extra). And you are completely right ADP - I changed the rules to make sure no one should vote for themselves (although last month no one did anyway if I recall correctly) Edited October 23, 2013 by herk Share this post Link to post
Posted October 23, 2013 Thanks for the updates and clarification, Herk! Also, Hellhorses' name has been changed to Horseremorse (he was just holding the other name until I got a nice Hellhorse); when you get a second can you update this? Share this post Link to post
Posted October 28, 2013 It's time to vote, isn't it? Just double-checking... (I'll make a post with my votes later today if it is!) Share this post Link to post
