Welcome to the Voting and Feedback round for RPC#1!


This is a new contest, so I want to try a new voting system as well. There will be a point system for this one, but it may be tweaked for later versions.

The prompt that led to the entries can be found in this thread.

Voting and Feedback guidelines
  • Please take your time to read through all the entries before voting for your favourite entry. The reasons you base your vote on are up to you, as long the vote isn’t based on whether or not you like the author.
    It would be nice if you could share why you voted for a specific work.
  • Giving feedback is optional but highly encouraged. When giving feedback you should be respectful and constructive. It’s good to point out any flaws or the things you feel could be improved or why you didn't like something, but don’t be mean.
    Make sure to point out what you liked or what appreciated in the entry too.
  • Contestants may (and are encouraged to) vote and/or give feedback for the other entries but shouldn’t vote for their own entry. If contestants wish to withhold a vote and only give feedback, that is good too.
  • The entries are anonymous unless the RPer asked for having their name added. That being said, RPers may claim their entry at any time during or after the voting period.
  • You can vote for entries and post your feedback in this thread, but if you rather have your vote and/or feedback be anonymous you can PM it to @Calle.
  • The voting period deadline is May 2nd, 9:00 CET, which is 7:00 server time (both times are in a.m.).


The Point System:
  • Every entry starts with a number of points based on incorporating the elements I listed, 1 point for each.
  • Voters can vote for their favourite piece, which will be worth 2 points.
  • Voters can vote for a runner-up, but this is completely optional. You don't have to choose a runner-up if you don't have one. A runner-up will receive 1 point.
  • The contest host won't award points for quality at the start, as that is still determined by a people's vote, but in case of a tie the contest host will also vote.

I’ve always found the contest section of the forum interesting. In times of yore, I would read the entries and write critiques on each one. I’ve always felt the single best part of the contest wasn’t seeing how you stacked up, but getting feedback on your work. Seeing how you stack up against your fellow competitors is great, but knowing how to improve is how we can better our next contest entry and even our next RP post.

I won’t be awarding any points to any of the entries. But I would like to talk about them a bit.

I'm not much of a Writer, but it was easy to dupe Teachers I cared in School to the "unweighted" GPA of 1.97500. Weighed I got a 2.72083, which I feel is Kawaler{Cavalier} really because I didnt pick my Classes I chose to orient Teachers fussing without peerage-procession, finding them to be invasive actually (as was a Quest to learn sardonicism into - hah, ranging, ranging..), to give me BASIC Classes. So, being a 1st person roleplayer, I strive to humiliate any other Party-Animal like a Swordsmans' Guild's two-sword Magister by telling the skits to myself, for space mercenary- Ignore that, some of my charm is extraordinary- you- I've heard|read that many times that I drawl out like a run-on sentence. That is a default of mine, but this Contest was the 1st I had tried to. Several of my works werent like there, but just fell too short on word count, so for that two-sword Swordsman principles I'd rebuke them to Calle and not compete. This work I tried to break a "wall", enjoying most People would comprehend the jolly good Fellow attempt of a European that was unstereotyped. And the Contest topic seemed easy to heed figuring out where I was with it along the way that it ended in the glee of my eye. I try for Kingdom sake with my words, as I cannot fathom the advanced apptitude of impeccability. I am to aware that my Nobleness isnt slavey like how words like "concession" or "inappropriate" are actually, and will cease talking of that so now because it burdens my heart with knowing entrepeneurship is that for terraforming, because rp's such as Space Pirate. *shrugs* when most "Barbarians" in class turned out to be "Bardic", what can I say?

For what it's worth I didn't read your girly renounce, your typing wherever I've ever been without being your Acquaintance in the Roleplayer Guild has been marvelous, so I won't allow myself to read your Dignitarian in this ball. It's just a Contest.

*I strolled a way. Where could that possibly be? I wasn't out of sight still, made an arm movement in the veil of darkness and threw off backhanded the cloak of black that was upon a dirtcycle- yes not some dystopian vader but a Ranger. As I sat to it's automatic-awesomeness music was the sound the throttle made as I torqued it's turning. I sped into a 260 degree turnabout thrice, then left you all to the lyrics brokered.*

They can't make things worse for me
Sometimes I'd rather die
They can tell me lots of things
But we don't see eye to eye
Well, I know they know the way I think
We know they always will
But someday I'm gonna change my mind
Sometimes I'd rather kill
Blood stains, speed kills
Fast cars, cheap thrills
Rich girls, fine wine
I've lost my sense, I've lost control, I've lost my mind
Ah, things seems so much different now
The scene has died away
I haven't got a steady job
And I've got no place to stay
Well, it's a futuristic modern world
But things aren't what they seem
Someday you better wake up
From this stupid fantasy, come on
Blood stains, speed kills
Fast cars, cheap thrills
Rich girls, fine wine
I've lost my sense, I've lost control, I've lost my mind

Blood stains, speed kills
Fast cars, cheap thrills
Rich girls, fine wine
I've lost my sense, I've lost control, I've lost my mind

I enjoyed reading the 3rd entry, Training the Village.

Love how the events flow naturally, with some decent humor spun in (albeit quite cringe haha).

You have my vote.

@Zmija Sebastian As a reminder, votes/feedback can also happen through PM and there is a point system, so the highest number of votes in this thread may not be the actual winner.

Low turn-up for votes this round, but there was a vote.
This means the final points are:
  • Training the village: 6 points
  • The Mysterious Mayor: 4 points
  • Misfits there, Oafs here: 3 points


That means "Training the village" is the winner for this round. Congratulations @BrokenPromise

I will be taking the feedback into account for the next round of this contest.

Ah, I can vote with a PM. That's great, I'll do that. Talking here is all deflective, I hate gallivanting as This is not how I learn to rp.
