Quick Info
Original Entry Deadline: 11.55pm 30 June 2019 AEST
Entries can still be made during Judging stage (Judging ends 11.55pm 7 July 2019 AEST)
Entry Status: Closed (20/48)
Phase: Fin!
Hello there!
Welcome back - it's time to play the game!
The gist of this event is simply thus:
- All skinners have to do: to create and submit a skin pertaining to the theme before the deadline.
- Then I'll chuck all your skins into a brutal Hunger Games simulator to find the biggest badass of them all - the Last Skin Standing.
- For fun, I will also score your skins arbitrarily (bear in mind that scores are not reflected in the simulation itself)
Before you enter however, at least check out the Theme, Rules and Entry sections to get a better idea of what to do.
Late Entries During Judging Stage
I figured that judging each skin wouldn't take too long - why not allow late entries anyway?
If you've got an anime skin you want to enter or you want to edit an existing entry, you have until the date and time specified in the Quick Info section.
(All other rules apply, yadda-yadda-yadda)
Can we exceed 19 skins? Aw hell yeah y'all did it
Entry Information
Theme
Per the poll, the theme for the LSS02 is anime :D
For our purposes, 'anime' also includes any properties in the anime-manga sphere. i.e. this includes games like the Fire Emblem Franchise, Persona, etc. I should be able to smell your entry and think, "woah, my dude, that smells of the anime."
Under the anime theme, you must at least create a skin of an anime character.
But I want something more interesting:
Show me the next Symbol of Peace!
Your entries will be scored on whether they'd make for a good Symbol of Peace. For reference, the Symbol of Peace was a moniker held by All-Might, which described how the almighty hero instilled peace through his inspiring feats and superhuman powers.
Bear in mind that the anime character you've chosen dooesn't only have to be strong - All-Might was a charismatic motherhugger too. Maybe your chosen character keeps the peace by being suave as hell? Maybe they're outright intimidating? Are they simply awe-inspiring? Can their cunning maintain peace? Can they achieve peace through their prettiness alone?
And if charisma ain't their thing, maybe they can just keep the peace by sheer force and will alone and by beating the crap out of people.
Maybe they can do both?
Whatever you do, show me something extraordinary!

Rules
Like last time, we keep the event lax but we still need rules.
- All regular PMC submission rules apply
- Each entry must be made by you individually
- Entry must be an anime character, at minimum
- No OC
- Double-ups of the same character are allowed but discouraged
- No low effort/half baked entries e.g. low_effort_example.jpeg
- Any submitted entry may be edited until deadline
- Seeking feedback from Auri prior to the deadline is totes acceptable - not a high stakes contest after all
Entry
Entering is ez pz
- No sign-ups - enter by uploading a skin to PMC and linking it in the thread
- Link to this contest in the description : )
- If your entry is accepted, I’ll add it to the list
Event Information
Set Up & Schedule
I hope this section is clearer this time!
Stage I - Entry
For three weeks, this event will be opened up for entry. During this time, enter a skin of an anime character (see Theme, Rules and Entry above).
At most, there will be 48 entries accepted into the LSS02 (this is the maximum set by the Brant Steele simulator)
Stage II - Scoring
I'll take about a week to score your skins and tabulate results. Your skins will be scored according to the Scoring section.
Stage III - Simulation
In phase III, I'll run your skins through the BrantSteele Hunger Games simulator (I might use an alternative if I find one) to determine a winner. The length of phase III will be determined by the results of the simulation itself.
During this phase, I'll publish the results of the simulation day-by-day through wall posts.

Scoring
Like in LSS01, LSS02 will feature two scoring criteria.
For a full explanation of the theme, see the above section Theme.
But for example, a skin of a mundane anime character might score a 1/6. It's a skin of an anime character, sure, so I'll accept it as an entry. But if they don't make for a good Symbol of Peace, they get a low score.
Bear in mind that the results of the scoring phase will not affect the results of the simulation.
Criterion | Score |
Execution Rating - Quality of a skin | /6 |
Thematic Rating - Worthiness as a ‘Symbol of Peace' | /6 |

The scoring stage winner this time was walk's Piccolo! We had a nice handful of strong entries, but green dad takes the cake in my book. Both a well executed skin, and a solid choice for a potential Symbol of Peace.
walk wins a fancy custom badge, an optional haiku and a profile feature :D
