Congratulations!

Winners should find their free copy of their item(s) in their inventories, and their other prizes added to their accounts! Participation prizes have also been given out to all that made it to the voting stage. In addition, the participation prizes have been made available to purchase in the Cash Shop for those that really just want the item and weren't able to participate.

And for those who just want to buy these darned awesome new user-made items, take a look in Louis L'amour's Parlor and Skitters' Den!

Adding my voice to the masses confused by 10 votes equaling 6 winners...? Congrats to those 5 winners (since Cathii won for two items)though! The items are lovely and I scooped up a copy of each asap.

However, out of these 6 winning items, I only voted for 1 (the perfume...I need 3 copies which would be out of the question for me if it was released as a regular CW) and I find that I am quite disappointed that none of the lips or eyes made it through. I focused on voting for face items since those can't be made into CWs while everything else can. I guess if anything, this (plus Peka Boo) should send a loud and clear message that the users of Subeta really, really want CW face items other than make-up though since it felt like the majority of the 70 finalists were either eyes or lips/smiles. Maybe that was just my perception though...shrug.

It was really hard to vote for only 10 items since all of these were so well done,so I guess I just wish that there would have been at least 10 winners.

Congrats to the winners!!! Hoping some of those eyes can become CW's? That's all I voted for, loved all of the creepy DIFFERENT things there were!

February 24, 2015, 12:53 am by

I was really hoping some of the eyes would get through since they can't be submitted normally. :c

February 24, 2015, 12:52 am by

HEY GUYS is the one that entered the shark comment her if you want her to submit and make it!

February 24, 2015, 12:46 am by

For those who interested in some of the entries being submitted as CWs, check the Custom Clothing forums, I know is already releasing the sheep companion and the rose stained-glass, and is releasing the bedroom candle, and I'm sure there are more to come!

February 24, 2015, 12:35 am by

I would've also have loved that super cute lambie to have won, too. I literally squeed when I saw it!

Please please please release a list of all the finalists! I echo all the others with this one!

I LOVED THAT SHARK!!! XD I just didn't have enough votes to VOTE for it! D:

February 24, 2015, 12:28 am by

I love the Perfume Bottle. Congrats to the winners!

February 24, 2015, 12:09 am by

The winning items are nice, but none are ones I voted for, so I'm disappointed too. I really loved a lot of the others. Like someone else said -- I think there were 6 or 7 I loved, and I threw my extra votes to items that were nice but I didn't need to have. I wouldn't have if I'd known there would only be 6 winners! If it's possibly to choose another 4 winners for this contest, I think people would be much happier.

February 24, 2015, 12:07 am by

Also, to anyone who thinks the perfume shouldn't have won, it actually looks really nice on top of a bg. On white/grey it doesn't show how nice it actually is. I too was unsure about it because to me it had a weird look to it, but it works much better with some background behind it. Great job to all the artists!

February 23, 2015, 11:58 pm by

I'm really disappointed.

February 23, 2015, 11:19 pm by

Congrats to the winners but I am really sad that not one of the face items made it. Should definitely be 10 winners next time too. (Or this time, it's not too late)

February 23, 2015, 11:16 pm by

Congrats to all winners! :D The items are all really pretty and I am looking forward to using them!

All that aside though, what I want to know (and everyone else too) is why are there only SIX winning items? I was given TEN votes for the entry items. This is really false advertising! Had I known that there would only be six winning items, I would have stopped voting after my sixth favorite item. Honestly after I voted for a certain number of items I just had to have, I had some votes left over. So I used those extra votes for items I thought were nice but not necessarily items that I loved. If you are going to give us 10 votes and then only choose six items you really need to say so. This was really bad hosting of a contest on your part and showing false advertising. Had we known that only six items would be made into official items I am sure not everyone would have used the full 10 votes.

In the future please do not try to mislead us and bait us with false pretenses for a contest, just communicate with us what is happening in the simplest way to avoid confusion and frustration.

February 23, 2015, 11:00 pm by

Only two I voted for won but considering I would have given all my votes for that bandage, I'm happy :) gratz to the winners!

February 23, 2015, 10:56 pm by

OMG! Congrats to all the winners, those items look awesome!

February 23, 2015, 10:51 pm by

To whoever you are. Thank you. <3 <3 <3

February 23, 2015, 10:33 pm by

Oh thank god the perfume bottle won, I really really wanted it. <3 Sad none of my other votes won, but oh wells. Congratz to the winners!

February 23, 2015, 10:27 pm by

Congratulations to all the winners. Wonderful work. I being a Fannibal totally voted for the shattered glass thing because it reminds me of the book Red Dragon, the movies Manhunter and Red Dragon. Also the coming season of Hannibal has cast a Francis Dolarhyde. I hope someday to get that item, but it is totally unfeasible for me now or maybe ever. I liked some more stuff that reminded me of Hannibal Lecter, but I can't recall just what they were. I liked some of the eye shadows too. :D. I thought everyone did very well. Everyone should be very proud of themselves. <3 ❤ 💋 :*

February 23, 2015, 10:25 pm by

Databunny made the Not Quite Dead Yet Locks. Knowing her, she'll probably release it directly through her CW shop.

February 23, 2015, 10:14 pm by

Congrats to the winners. Items were nice but i'm a little disappointed that none of the items i voted for won. Actually surprised that none of the eyes made the winners list. Artists did a great job on the items and I hope they all can make them available in their shops. I really want the ones I voted for.

February 23, 2015, 10:11 pm by

Congrats to the winners! They were all so lovely and well done, just wish we could have them ALL. Thank you, artists, for sharing with us ^.^

February 23, 2015, 10:01 pm by

Staff: Are these winning items permanently in the shops, or are they limited until the end of the Pandemic, please?

February 23, 2015, 9:58 pm by

Yes! I wanted the bedroom background too.

February 23, 2015, 9:51 pm by

Has this been answered? Why only six items instead of ten? There are quite a few I would have loved to have, but they did not win. sad

February 23, 2015, 9:47 pm by

Oh my gosh... Who made the heart wig? The one that had the gorgeous hearts all over it? It was sort of ombrÃ©'d as well! I would definitely pay to own that wig. Ah! Please, tell me who made it and if they're selling it!

Congrats to all the winners. I, too, thought 10 votes=10 items. Kind of sad it wasn't and not sure why have 10 votes if only 6 items would be chosen?

February 23, 2015, 9:43 pm by

Glad that awesome background won! Also if anyone know who made the Not Quite Dead Yet Locks, please contact me!

I don&;t wanna be rude but... the perfume?
I didnt think it would pull through with the amazing eyes and other nice wearables. But we all did a good job and even though it wasn't as grand as the ones you wanted to win, I still gave it my all. You dont have to like what won but at least have some good sportsmanship like everyone else!

I want to thank the people who voted for all our items. I hope some of the ones i also liked will be as a cw in the future. I feel thankful and grateful for the comments on the bedroom bg. I will put it in my cw shop afterwards. I just wanted to let people know that I made it and will pull it through.

February 23, 2015, 9:35 pm by

Very much in agreement with those who have said it would be nice to know who submitted the ones that did not win. I understand you would not want us to know during the voting but listing them after the fact so we can let those people know we have an interest in them seems appropriate.

February 23, 2015, 9:32 pm by

lmao going by this news post alone, I feel like that shark should have been the winner six times over â‰§â—¡â‰¦

February 23, 2015, 9:29 pm by

Congrats to all the winners and all the entries were awesome. You all did a great job.

February 23, 2015, 9:28 pm by

Congratulations, such good work, every detail is well done.

February 23, 2015, 9:28 pm by

Well, I wanted the background, so yay on it winning! I'm thinking I voted for the mirror and the perfume but I don't remember that clearly. I just went down the list and randomly used the rest of the 8 votes I had.

I wanted the shark. In fact I would have gave all 10 to the shark alone.

February 23, 2015, 9:27 pm by

Awww, no shark or 3-headed dog . . .

February 23, 2015, 9:26 pm by

Congrats to the winners~ But only 1 of the ones I picked got picked :(

February 23, 2015, 9:26 pm by

First of all, congratulations to all the winners! You've all done a marvelous job and I've just spent the past hour or so getting more candy hearts to spend! xD

Secondly, I'll agree with some of the posts. I also believed the 10 votes we were given meant we had about 10 new items heading our way. :/ I guess that wasn't the case and it wasn't made clear.

Thirdly, Again I'll agree with some of the posts. We should have been given the opportunity to learn the makers of these items in case they decided to start selling them separately in their CW shops. I saw a number of items - that obviously didn't win - that I would have loved to have bought had that been the case. :/

This needs a bit of a rethink if this part of Survival is done next year.

February 23, 2015, 9:23 pm by

Congrats to the winners!

Three of the ones I voted for and two of the ones I quite liked but not in my top 10 made it so I'm pretty happy. There were so many nice ones.

February 23, 2015, 9:22 pm by

Could someone tell me who made that lovely red swirl dress? Is there any chance it will be released as a CW, or the bedroom background?

February 23, 2015, 9:17 pm by

aw none of my votes won, I really loved that floral crown item. congrats to the winners though!

February 23, 2015, 9:17 pm by

I wish we could have a list of who submitted what (didn't think to save the info on the ones I liked the most) so that anything that wasn't a facial feature we can follow and see if it will be submitted as a CW.

I was also super confused by the small number of winners. 10 votes = 10 winning designs is what it seems everyone thought. I mean, we only had 5 votes for Peka-Boo and that had 10 winners.

Also categories next time? If its an event like this where its 2 different themes, definitely split those with X number of votes to be used for each theme - and also maybe split facial features (which we cannot convert into CWs - unless you plan to change that) from all other wearables so that we can maybe get some features as winners next time.

February 23, 2015, 9:15 pm by

I dont think Ive ever been so bummed about a competition. No faces made it :/ I did like the hairs and all, but those can be cw. Its so sad to me that the one item type with no other chance to be on site didnt even get a single win.

I really hope we can get those amazing creepy eyes and mouths on site. I wanted them so bad. We need to have some contests with face items only. Or a way for users to submit face items to staff for a chance on site.

Of course congrats to the winners. All the items were amazing! I do think Ill buy a few. But its sad that common things always win. I want some user drawn faces!

February 23, 2015, 9:14 pm by

I must chime in with the others when I say I was pretty much expecting 10 winners. I am thoroughly surprised that more face items didn't win, and even more so surprised that only 2 of my votes went to winners. Regardless, congratulations to the winners, it was a stiff competition.

February 23, 2015, 9:13 pm by

NO EYES?!??!?!?!?!???>>>>>>>>>>> well at least these are rly cute!

February 23, 2015, 9:12 pm by

Well only one I voted for made it through... they are all great though, just not my style.

To whomever made that shark... seriously, release that CW!! I want it lol

February 23, 2015, 9:08 pm by

ha. I think 4 of the ones I voted for won!!

February 23, 2015, 9:04 pm by

Congratulations to the winners! :D

February 23, 2015, 9:00 pm by

Yay, more wearables! Someday I'll reach that 15,000 item mark. Someday.

Why the hell did the bandage win ~

Why the hell are you so rude? And to answer your question because the art was amazing and it fit the brief that was offered out. In addition, it seems most users actually liked it because it ended being one of the 6 out of 70+ that won.

February 23, 2015, 8:38 pm by

Only 1 item I voted for made it through, and it was the one I tossed into the tally at the end as an "eh, why the hell not" to fill out the 10 votes allowed. Not even complaining, I'm legit amused.

Congrats to the winners. I'm gonna need whoever made that bedroom background to submit it as a CW so I have an excuse to make rampantly slutty HAs.

February 23, 2015, 8:35 pm by

I would love for 10 winners as well - though honestly I wanted just about everything that was there! Only one of the things I voted for made it haha, though I /almost/ voted for that dress so I'm glad to see it!

February 23, 2015, 8:28 pm by

Congrats to the winners and all who entered.

February 23, 2015, 8:22 pm by

ok sorry i have to post again petition to make everyone who submitted and lost submit their items as cws there's a bunch i would slot on definitely (also am i the only one that is mildly sad that the fondue wig won't have recolors? it's so nice and i would like to see it in blonde/black definitely)
