disappointing that there are no nudes

there are no nudes because its an ESR wallpaper contest... entry 20 is pretty good imo.

im going to try and keep this brief and to the point...

the winner of the wallpaper contest is the entry with the most [+] and there is only a prize for 1st place, its a $50 headset from icemat and the title of "ESR Wallpaper contest winner."

there are 35 entries from talented people who dedicated some of their valuable time to produce a nice wallpaper for ESReality with the expectation that the best designed wallpaper would recieve the most votes. but the whole contest went pear-shaped when entry 36, the "joke" entry was posted (it wasnt posted at first because its insulting to ESReality and Icemat, and especially to the other people who made an effort for this comp.) but ZImmerman complained and the admins were forced to post it because it doesnt break any of the contest rules (please note neither does this post).

so whats the problem? the community will surely vote for the best designed entry, the one they might actually use as their background, and that entry will win? wrong. not enough people are taking this contest as seriously as the 35 competitors and they are just adopting the attitude of "oh lolz mspaint... ha ha vote." which shows that the general ESR user has little or no appreciation and respect for artistic/design talent, and its not something to be proud of.

so my appeal to you is to re-evaluate the entries and to vote for one (or more than one) that you really believe is good, one that you feel actually looks good on your desktop and is deserving of 1st place.

here is a list of the designs that in my opinion deserve your [+].

entry 1
entry 18
entry 20 (currently runner up to the "joke" entry)
entry 21
entry 22
entry 30
entry 31

entry 20 is the closest runner up to the joke. so if you want to make a difference then [+] this one :)

ps: i am expecting alot of negative replies (lies and false accusations) to this. go nuts cus i wont bother to read them.

"...with the expectation that the best designed wallpaper would recieve the most votes."

Why are you expecting smth like this ?

I mean, i will plus smth that i like. Entry36 gave me a smile so it deserved its plus. Other wallpapers that i liked also got one, but not because the creator was working 3 weeks for some 3d stuff or whatever on it.

and on top of it, there isnt a single one out of the entrys that i would use as my own wallpaper because i am normaly using smth totally different as my background than just a logo with some text :) (like landscapes or whatever).

stop that peTerp00n, i made a wallpaper and i'm disappointed too. Not only because i'm losing to the 36 but also because i'm losing to you. You already advertised your picture a lot and your score didnt change much but you keep spamming it's unfair anywhere. It's just boring and i'm sure everyone who reads you already voted.
There's nothing you or i can do, you lost i lost, too bad.

you replied to the wrong post :)

THIS FAKE ACCOUNT PLUSSED ENTRY 36!

so did this one

and you are iMsg ppl to vote for #20 , so please stop

it was just a general awareness message, and not against the rules of this comp. but i have stopped... entry 36 is cheating. please admin!

rolf 36 is cheating? Stfu for once you retard.

see Comment #62

And how many accounts like that voted for you? Close to ten I would guess.

none at all

And I saw loads of ZA guys with less than 15 posts voting for you.

moron... draven is a pro quake player, sanoz0r is gamer i know, gamamale is a friend irl who made an account (whats wrong with that?) and the other peson from denmark... who's that?

It's not the draven from the Netherlands. It's clearly a guy from ZA.

netherlands? he's from the old quad6 with phantom, manic, reaver, etc

Never heard of him.

theres alot u dont know or havent heard of, so stop making false accusations, faggot.

He has 0 posts and just made an account to plus you. Stfu you fucking moron for once.

he's still a pro gamer, i believe officially top 50 in the world for first person shooters. he beat garpy when he came to ZA and i didnt tell him to make an account to plus me (i thought he had one already). besides i didnt have any posts before this comp either... SO WHAT?

also notice that i dont have a buddy list. thats because i dont know anyone on esr, but if u look at the buddy list of the person who made entry 36 you'll see where 10 of his votes came from.

Pro gamer eh because he won one duel. Ok sure.

just ignore him, we all know he's cheating, and that this is all he got in his sad lil' "life", its a shame that he's probably going to slith his wrists if/when he loses this competition, but I can't see how that's any of our concern

I think you're 100% right. My time is better wasted by trolling jamerio.

now you're getting it!

cant you read, you fucking moron? when did i say one duel? it was actually a tournament. and thats not the point. the point is that im not cheating and you need to find something better to do with ur time or else you're living a very unfulfilling life. shame.

Who cares you'll be gone soon enough from this world.

"this world" - if ur refering to ESR (and i believe this could be what you considor as your world because i doubt you've experienced much of the real world) then yes, i might be leaving soon.

Bye then. Don't come back.

yeh about ten, maybe more

don't kill yourself if you lose 8(

general awareness msg ahaha

lol

lmao

authors are to remain anonymous btw, so yeh u pretty much broke against the rules, you COULD be disqualified, which infact, i wouldnt mind :)

Yeah he's managed to break that rule about a million times :P

agreed, bannable offence imo!

its not a rule

Well levi240 said so. Her words > yours

firstly that wasnt a written rule of the comp and secondly i havent once said which entry is mine (if i even have one). thirdly i know atleast 4 of the other authors including who made entry 36, so they would need to be disqualified aswell for not remaining anonymous.

UR GOING DOWWWNNNNNNNN

I'm gutted by your behaviour.

hahaha

i dunno how u found that #, but theres no1 in it.

ahah, rappad $

hahaha, ur sad:)

36 is the best wallpaper.. sorry

ye naked men would have gone down a treat

ask lock, i'm sure he can arrange something!

ye so ive seen ;)

not all entries here =[

lol ok yeltsin said post so here it goes :P

...worst mistake ever

look, nice work and all, but what exactly do you hope to accomplish with all the whining?

you're turning green dude

actually nah... im over this childish comp.

over it :P really? withdraw then and take the 20 new south africans with you :D theyre even posting links on forum entries threads and saying other ones are crap and vote for this other one. talk about rude and lame :)

you not embarrassed by it yet?

im not voting for entry36 so ive got nothing to be embarrassed about

http://www.esreality.com/?a=post&id=1252550#pid1254142

there are some very cool entries here...

http://www.esreality.com/?a=post&id=1252550 (entry 20) is my faverite... i hope it wins! :)

this one is a lot better imo http://www.esreality.com/?a=post&id=1252524

i dont like the stupid liquid swirly things :S

uh... is slapping an esr logo on some random deviant-art wallpaper a valid entry?

well it is supposed to be ppls own work :| thieving others work for your own gain isnt on really is it... maybe we should have asked for psd orso

i hope the cheaters get pwned

if someone is found to have done that the wallpaper will have to be removed i think or it isn't fair on the other users who actually put effort into it

yeah... its easy to prove you didnt cheat by supplying the working files on demand. so if anyone suspects cheating or has a link to originals by other artists they must voice it.

is it cheating if u have dummy accounts vote for you, or ur m8s sign up with 0 posts just to vote?

keep an eye out for sudden upsurges in registered users in particular from ZA. so far:
gamamale - voted #20

i know the guy, and it isnt me.

did i say it was

no, but i thought u were trying to make a point or something... nvm

like urself?

nope, and i could prove it if i needed to.

well not cheating but voting something which isnt the best because the guys za
thats cape coloured ideology

on what basis can you say that the entry in question is not the best? and the entry that currently has the most votes is definately not the best.

http://www.esreality.com/files/misc/2006/48817-mini3%201024.jpg is the best looking
36 is the funniest

im using that \o

me2

that one is fugly :S

Btw, what the hell is "cape coloured ideology" supposed to mean? ZA guys can be overly-patriotic at times, but, so can other countries ... Remember how poll's involving Polosatiy and Boxer and Sky have gone down in the past?

This plus-race is completely subjective and the wallpaper in question is decent (not my favourite though). But, people can and should vote however they want, heck, you can plus more than one. A couple of new accounts from ZA (not even 5) shouldn't really affect the outcome. I mean people can tell their unregistered friends to vote.... can't they?

The contest is meant to be anonymous and yet shock horror all of the ZA community seem to be voting for #20 and defend it against #36 and others too as if their life depended on it.

Clearly someone isn't being anonymous somewhere (Apparently in ZA)

Not all of the ZA community, but most unfortunately most, and it's pretty lame. I'm kinda ashamed of and disappointed in the way my country-mates have been acting, it's just sad...

This is kinda of disappointing photoshop work tbh :(

[-]

This is kinda of disappointing photoshop work tbh :(

says the guy who didnt submit anything

Does it really matter? We're supposed to judge the entries and personally I've only seen 3 entries I like (1, 18 and 20). The rest was pretty much crap. So yeah, I'd say it's kinda disappointing.

i thought he was saying that its ALL disappointing, but you are right... vote for the ones that are good. there is only 1 prize after all.

say prize again you havent mentioned it yet

a pair of in-ear headphones from icemat.

I did vote for what I saw as the best, I just expected a little more from such a diverse and talented community. :)

haha, ur taking this too seriously :) i mean sure, keep commenting, its really fun to read, but dude.. if you take an online competition about headphones this seriously, ur gonna get truly messed up once u grow up!

can i submit one?

i aint done/haven't started yet :)

all work was created by disadvantaged children on factory-soiled etch-a-sketches

Dissappointing.

I remember a couple of ESR wallpaper contests years ago producing much better results.

agreed, but u still shouldnt say that, the poo guy from africa will rage u!!

The poo guy? You mean Mr Hanky? :-D

my thoughts exactly

Is this the Blue that was in that german clan uNKToT or something? :o

neg

Competition ruined by peTerp00n and his fanboys.

Is peterpoon the one who made entry 36?

No he's the one who made entry 20. That entry has loads of accounts with zero posts voting for it and he has been sending instant messages to the people on the site telling them to vote for him. Not to mention the fact the he and his peons have been shitting on all the other entries.

lying scumbag

lol. probation anyone?

probate4lyfe

Please stop crying emo kid.

speak for yourself.

Who fucking else would I speak for? Dumb cunt.

it means you are talking about yourself... i guess its expecting too much for you to understand common phrases in english.

It's a dumb phrase used by dumb people.

takes one to know one

http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net/c.cgi?u=boiling_blood

You're exactly like the idiots Maddox talks about. I'll let him insult you.

he's an idiot. ur an idiot for caring what he thinks.

So how does it really feel to lose mate? You don't seem to be taking it well.

im not your mate. and it sucks losing to a piece of shit... because (unlike someone) i actually put effort into my entry. i just expected too much from ESR... its definately not what it used to be.

hopefully the admins have enough common sense to do something about it.

So how much time did you spend on your entry mate? Does all that time spent make your anger even greater?

no, im over it. learnt my lesson, and wont try to contribute here again.

I'm so gutted beyond words. It's indeed a travesty what has happened to you. Hopefully future endeavours will be more fruitful for you.

guys, you both suck

You're german. Don't care what you say.

Yeah so maybe some time in the future, you'll be able to afford some mediocre icemat earphones.

i can afford them now

hahahaha

He's not lying, cunt.

you idiots work as a pack :/ and ironically accuse ZA of doing just that.

its a simple fact that there arent "loads of accounts with zero posts voting for it" maybe one, but not loads.

i didnt send "instant messages to the people on the site telling them to vote for him." they were the same as my long post, listing all the good entries and saying that entry 20 is the runner up, but not instructing them to vote for it. what makes you think that telling people to do something on this site is going to make them do it, anyway?

"he and his peons have been shitting on all the other entries." i dont have peons, just friends... and most of them arent on esr and they didnt shit on all the entries. you cant blame me that people are shitting on entry 36, its simply kak.

there, 3 lies. now STFU!

there are loads of accounts, who just recently registered, voting for your crap.
you sent me an iM telling me to vote for entry 20. not directly, but it was implied.
your friends are peons.

yes, if u close your eyes and wish really hard it will become true.

you can't handle the truth.

you cant handle my replies

replies such as this one?

yes, if u close your eyes and wish really hard it will become true.

idiot, thought you were over it? moron.

exactly, fav bit was gettin people to reg to vote, then after everyone said thats lame, they start posting, all got like 5 comments each and reg all on first day of comp :P

Theres alot of cheating going on, especially if something as bas as Entry 36 is winning!

Almost everyone who voted for 36 is a long time ESR user. Same thing can't be said about 20.

ur replying to Registered: 22 Nov 2006 :P

http://www.esreality.com/?a=post&id=1256662#pid1254945

fucking moron.

cry cry cry

suck my cock?

Not gay sorry.

i dont see that as a problem

Almost everyone who voted for 36 must be blind imho.

that doesnt even make sense.

How would they plus then? Makes no sense.

this whole competition is much more dirty than the underwear way2ez finds in his room during his bi anual tidy.

we need another one of these competitions, whaddya say nicky? :õ(
