SC4 Pictures - Tournament of Non-Champions, Anniversary Edition!

[Masochist]

And the winners have been decided!

You can now see which of the 50 pictures will move on to the next round!  The way it works out, I've taken the top two from the 1st Set, the top three from the 2nd and 3rd Sets, and the top four from the New Entries, which when combined with the two carry-overs from the last tourney, will make 14 total pictures that will move on to the semi-finals.  In this poll, you can see that the winners are:

Callagrafx, Debussyman, and iamgoingtoeatyou!

Congrats to all of you !  Your pictures will go up against the other winners in the other polls.  Of course, this also means that some of you may be going up against your own pictures!  But, as it's the people who have spoken, so it shall be .

Thank you to everyone who voted!  Be on the lookout for the next round, to be up soon !

*The Semi-Finals*

All right!  It's the second round of the 2nd Chance Tournament, Anniversery Edition!  Things are going to get really rough here, now!  This should all be standard fare by now: you have two votes to cast within 24 hours for any of these awesome pictures (14 in all).  We'll determine how the finals will commence depending on how many votes are cast, and how many pictures have a good number of votes.  A note: please pay special attention to which picture you're voting for, because a couple of people have more than one picture in this round.  Be sure you know which one you're choosing.  All right, that's enough talk...have at them!

13th Hour Report

Oh, it's close!!!  There have been quite a few votes cast, but only 3 votes separate the currently trailing picture from the first place picture...or should I say "pictures", because there are two tied for the lead right now.

More than ever, your vote counts!  If you haven't voted yet, or you want to change your vote, now's the time to do it!  You only have 11 hours left !

[Shadow Assassin]

I have a feeling I know exactly which pictures are in the lead/tied/w.ever. 

(three or so hours to go!)

Actually, there are three of them, now!!!

It Has Been Decided!!!!

Wow, folks!  41 voters, and the results speak for themselves!  I promise you, it was very close until the very end...in fact, it was the very last vote that decided it!  But that one vote was all that was needed.  From 50 to 14 to 5...and now one picture sits at the top of them all!  So now, it gives me great pleasure to announce that the winner of the SC4 Pictures Tournament of Non-Champions is:

         *** SHADOW ASSASSIN ***         

Congratulations Shadow Assassin for winning the largest SC4 Pictures tournament in the history of the game (by what is probably the slimmest margin of victory)!  Your picture will be inducted into the Hall of Fame!  Also, as a special bonus for winning this special Anniversary tourney, your name will go into my signature for the remainder of the Birthday Bash!

The other four pictures (yes, all four of them) will automatically be entered into the next 2nd Chance tourney, should there be one.  Congrats to all competitors in the tourney. Your pictures were all awesome, and they made this tournament what it was!  And thanks to all of you who voted, and those who continue to support the game so much !

Finally, I'd like to give a huge THANK YOU to jeronij and the SC4D Staff for putting this site together and keeping it up and running, as well as for supporting this game as much as they have!  Without your support, neither this game nor SC4 itself would be what they are today, so thank you guys so very much !

Here's to another year of SC4D, and the picture competition!  I can't wait to see all of the amazing pictures that you guys will create!!!

Hey, congrats, SA! Superb picture, my friend!

And congratulations to all the contestants! It was definitely a tough choice!

[Shadow Assassin]

Looks like it was third time lucky, seeing as the first two times this picture was entered into the Competition, I missed out by one vote in the third round, one vote in the Tourney of Non-Winners. 

And I won by one vote. Scary, isn't it?

[jeronij]

SA, congratulations and thanks for such a beautiful picture    . I think I'll add it to the main page slider 

[Ennedi]

Congratulations Shadow Asassin! 

You know it is one of my most favourite picures from a long time
Now more people can look at it and see it - they can see high skills, very good artistic intuition and some luck  (as always when something outstanding is created). I support a Jeronij's idea!

But I must say pictures mady by Lee, Hotdog and Debussyman are my favourites too, I saved them all in my private gallery
Masochist, congratulations for you too!  This Tournament was definitely a great event, it was very interesting and perfectly performed. It was a great pleasure to see all 50 pictures presented here!

Congratulations SA, well deserved! That's a stunning picture

I voted in every round but completely forgot about the finals unfortunately. I'm glad the picture that I also would have voted for wins this competition, especially with the differences being this small..

Congrats for winning this, SA!
