The Aristocrat's Turkey Day Ball[edit source]
- Cat the Colourful's picks
- 1.User:Mhaille/The Great Aristocratic Old Ones
- - Rather dark and quite an original approach to the aristocrats-theme. Loved all the Lovecraft-references (I at least suppose it was meant to feel like so, with the referencing to the Old Ones, et cetera) and the overall describing of the events felt really intense and were carefully worded. The choices of the imaginery were nice and added well to the context. As for the humorous value I think the article focused a bit more on the storytelling rather than jokes, which necessarily isn't a bad thing though. Overall, great concept and plot.

- - I think this article is a good example of how simplicity can work out well while still having a sort of twist to the "traditional" aristocrats-joke. Liked the subtle racial jokes here and there - despite playing with obvious stereotypes I couldn't help but laugh at the "$20 a show. No black family ever got more." -part and the God of white men -part. That being said, the overall harsher/rawer approach worked well. Have to congratulate you on writing and finishing this in such a fast tempo after giving the additional time, which however caused the outlook of the article seem a bit messy on certain parts. But other than that it was a great article!

- - It's an interesting idea for a retelling, I must say, also the images were nice.
- RAHB's picks
- 1. User:Mhaille/The Great Aristocratic Old Ones - An epic tale of time, travel, and incest. And something with a parallel universe or something.
- 2. User:Shabidoo/aristo - This article makes me extremely uncomfortable. By that token, it certainly belongs in this competition.
Best Bad Taste Article[edit source]
- Mhaille's picks
- 1.User:Shabidoo/Black paint brush of tragic angst
- - So good I read it twice. Slightly dry, well written, beautifully illustrated, good pacing, seriously there's little I can fault this badboy for.
- 2.User:Lord Assbutt the Fourth/Couch farting
- - Not really enough bad taste for my liking, but an enjoyable read nonetheless....
- 3.Dirty Sanchez
- - Spiffing rewrite but again I think it needed to up its bad taste a notch or three.
- 4.User:Kip the Dip/I was going to make a gay joke
- - Brevity may be the soul of wit, butt....
- GrammarFegelein's picks
- 1.User:Shabidoo/Black paint brush of tragic angst
- - Perfect pictures and wonderful writing!
- 2.User:Kip the Dip/I was going to make a gay joke
- - I know this isn't bad taste, butt I really liked this one.
- 3.User:Lord Assbutt the Fourth/Couch farting
- - Needed more bad taste, but still a decent read.
- 4.Dirty Sanchez
- - Not bad, but could have been a little longer.
- Cat the Colourful's picks
- 1.User:Shabidoo/Black paint brush of tragic angst
- - Absolutely fantastic, laughed out loud several times. I liked the whole concept of the protagonist hating his family and his twisted, tasteless train of thought. The short part where he's recalling his mom's cakes and then dwelling into depression after Hiroshima was a nice add, something that could have been maybe expanded though. The storytelling was great, so was the plot.
- 2.User:Lord Assbutt the Fourth/Couch farting
- - Good writing, especially in the part describing the technique. Could have maybe used a picture or two but other than that it was a good read.
- 3.Dirty Sanchez
- - Quite short but a good descriptive article. Could use more humour maybe and definitely more material
- 4.User:Kip the Dip/I was going to make a gay joke
- - I was going to give this perfect score, butt then I actually read it through
The Master Goa Tse Award for Digital Imagery[edit source]
Shabidoo's selection.
- Zombie Baron's. Very funny idea (racy) and really great use of fonts. If you truly made this yourself...I am extremely impressed. Disappointing that you didn't change the speech bubble (or if you did...that the text wasn't Islamicised).
- Mhaile, An extremely close second. I thought the image was of Justin Bieber and I think that if you said it was Justin Bieber it would have been a laugh out loud moment. Your text was definitely more bad taste...but I think the colour blocking and font choice could have been better.
Kip's selection This is toughy. Zombiebaron's is a better image all around, and really, we should rename this contest "Zombiebaron's Tasteless Black Joke Extravaganza!". However, Mhaille's is somewhat more, pardon the pun, fresh, and it's definitely more in, um, bad taste. So here go:
- Mhaille
- Zombiebaron
The reverse of Shabidoo's ranking, meaning you're tied, meaning you're both losers.
- I was hoping it would be a two way failure. I hoped we could all be equally dissapointed by both of them. ShabiDOO 17:51, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
