Finale Deadline Extended

I have come to the understanding that the remaining contestants are having technical issues with either a) the latest patch or b) the World Adventures expansion pack, so I am extending the deadline for the finale photos til Sunday 12am US-PST.
I apologize to ALL ‘audience’ members who are on the edge of their seats, waiting desperately for the finale photographs.
Good luck to those of you sorting out your gaming bugs. I feel your pain and annoyance too.

FINALE!

Congratulations to Lawton & Philip for making it to the finale! This photo assignment will consist of two separate photo shoots that will be judged for your final score. A questionnaire will take the place of your RP.

Sadly, Onion Rotten has been eliminated from the competition. Thank you Onion & clairezy018 for 8 great rounds. Onion’s dark, twisted sense of humor and surprisingly adaptableness will be missed. Good luck in the future!

Fan Favorite?

I have been very curious as to whom the audiences favorite model is. A poll has been set up below for your votes on the Strike-a-Pose: Guys Edition fan favorite. Enjoy!

Photoshoot 7 – Ruling

Selfish as it may sound, I have decided (with help) to veto the elimination for photo assignment 7. The next shoot is the challenge that I’ve been looking forward to all ‘season’.

I would like to apologize for not congratulation Philip & Onion on their earning top scores in challenges 6 and 7. You both did a great job.

The blog has been updated as needed, however I am having difficulty with the sims3 forums and will update there as soon as I can.

Photoshoot 6 – Complete

Photoshoot 6 is complete! Individual pictures are linked HERE along with Scores & Commentary.

On a side note, I am very disappointed that Gabe Brushfire has chosen to withdraw from the competition. But as with his withdrawal it has been decided that no elimination will take place. Please take the opportunity to take a sigh of relief!

Hope you guys had fun!

Photoshoot 5

Photoshoot 5 is officially complete!  Individual pictures are linked HERE.

Scores & Commentary are posted HERE.

The Immunity winner for photo challenge 5 is Lawton Thorpe! He will be able to chose one other model and both will have their choice of any free CC posted HERE. [he has chosen Philip Critchton to share his prize.]

On a much sadder note, Jet Redden’s score was not enough to qualify him to continue on to photo challenge 6. We will definitely miss his ‘down under’ surfer  charm and great smile. We wish him all the best in the future.

Photo Assignment 6 is posted and can be found HERE.

Photoshoot 3 – Complete

Photoshoot 3 is complete!  Individual pictures are linked HERE.

Due to a tie the immunity  and immunity prize will be divided among the winners. Philip Crichton will receive immunity in for photo assignment 4 and Habibi McSteamy  will be given the opportunity to have his photos evaluated before submitting his final photos. Congratulations to Philip & Habibi!!

There was also a tie between our bottom 2 this round bewteen Brody and Gabe. We are very sad to announce that the model being eliminated this round is Brody. Brody  has grown very much in the past few photo shoots and deserves a round of applause for this. He will be missed dearly and we wish him all the best in the future.

Photo Assignment 4 is posted and can be found HERE.

Photoshoot 2 – Complete (2.0)

Update
Photoshoot 2 is complete!  Individual pictures are linked HERE. Scores & Commentary will be provided this afternoon, followed by your ‘model mail’.

Immunity will be given to the winner of this challenge (and one other model of his choosing) will have the opportunity to view all other photo entries before scoring and commentary are made. Those two models will also be given a 12hr extension to complete their photos.

Although we have lost, yet again, another model, we WILL be having an elimination this round.

(2.0)

Scores & Commentary are posted HERE.

The Immunity winner for photo challenge 2 is Lawton Thorpe! He will be able to chose one other model and both will have the privilege to see all photo submissions before their deadline. He has chosen Corban Wilder.

On a much sadder note, Sebastian Sim’s score was not enough to qualify him to continue on to photo challenge 3. His unique blue skin and athletic energy will be dearly missed. We wish him all the best in the future.
