Halloween Contests 2010!

They could have awarded the Nobel Peace Prize by now

Quote from tn_native : They could have awarded the Nobel Peace Prize by now

As in all of our giveaways we give the winners some time to respond. If they don't then we pick new winners.

I know, I was also amazed to find that there are some people who aren't on here everyday let alone all the time!

The fools! That just means more deals for me! Mwahahaha!

I was thinking that maybe for next year have a costume entry deadline and after that deadline then open up voting to make it fair to all the entrants. Another thought I had was that in the voting (in some cases) whomever had the most "friends" on here could tell them to vote on their costume and be thrust into a higher spot than they would recieve normally. Just my 2 cents. Before anyone gets a chance to say it, no I was not mad that I did not place. On another note there were some pretty awesome costumes, lets keep this going for next year.

Next year have different divisions for adults and children?

Congrats to all who won and a huge thanks to all who entered and those who voted!

Congrats!! Some of you guys are crazy creative!!

I added links to the pictures next to the winner's names so that you can check them out again more easily.

Next year can we have different divisions for flaming pumpkins vs normal ones?

I am going all-out in 2011 to win the Grand Prize!

nice! slickzilla was definitely #1 for the entirety of the competition and my vote for costume would've been between avatar and firefox.

This was the most poorly designed and executed contest I have ever been a part of.
I am very bitter.

Last year the submissions were all revealed on the same day, and they all had generic names. Everybody got the same amount of voting time, and we knew when it was going to end. Hell, WHEN DID IT END this time? I've got more votes than a few of the top ten winners, but I didn't even place. I submitted mine on the last day to keep from having my design copied...but I guess I just lost out on 15 days worth of voting!

Very bitter indeed. I know it's a free contest, but COME ON!

Love the people providing the deals...the people providing/governing the contests....well...different story.

I know I'm not the only person thinking this.

I am sorry that I didn't do a better job of running it for you. This was my first year doing so and promise to try and make everything more clear next year.

The voting ended at midnight Nov. 1st.

Some entries that came in last minute actually did win.

All I can do is apologize. Next year we will cut off the submissions on one day and allow extra days for just voting.

I am so excited to have won a t-shirt. I will definitely post a picture once I receive it. :-) The grand prize winner for the pumpkin(s) was amazing!! Thanks

How about a Halloween cake decorating contest next year? Here's a sample of what I'm talking about...
