Last year it took somewhere between 2 and 3 weeks I think... And it hasn't even been 2 weeks yet. I'm sure they have plenty of other work to do, and plenty of entries to sort through.

Last year the pictures were posted & winners announced 1 week after the contest ended. I think there were seventy-something entries last year, with that huge prize package. The winning entry was so much better than everyone else's that it probably didn't take too long to determine the winner. Maybe it's a tougher decision this year. &, like you said, there are plenty of other things with which the staff are busy.
I hope I'm wrong, but I'd guess that there were considerably fewer entries this year, since there are fewer things to win & less time to make a jack-o'-lantern. But again, I hope I'm wrong, & I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's entries. じゃ、 アイスル未来 |

And, now it's been another 5 days. Were there problems in getting the results together?

Congratulations firefly!!! Once again I come in second to a pumpkin vastly better than everyone else's. In fact, I think that's the best jack-o'-lantern I've ever seen. Enrique Roche's is great, too. Is that a scene from NANA? I can't tell. It's a panoramic two-tone! Nice.
Thank you ANN! Thank you FUNimation! また今度ね、 アイスル未来 Last edited by AisuruMirai on Mon Nov 20, 2006 10:59 am; edited 1 time in total |

Congratulations to the winners. I've definitely been out-carved. m(_ _)m
Just a small correction. I believe my entry was mixed up with Lisa Ho's. I did the Allen Walker from D.Gray-Man carving.^^;; |

It doesn't seem like that many people entered, compared to last year.

<-- Enrique
Yes, its all of the Black Stones from Nana. Carved about 180 degrees in the pumpkin. I took a large portion out of the original picture trying to make it look as best I could two toned on a not very large pumpkin (the cut area was about 5 inches tall). Definately a lot of work put into that death note pumpkin. I can only imagine how flimsy his eye, jaw, and moth were to cut. I imagine anyone whos cut a pumpkin knows how delicate you must have had to been. Yours aswell is quite nice AisuruMirai. Looks like it actually would have been really interesting to carve with the hair creating that web. And either thats a really high exposure or that pumpkin is just paper thin. As for Kate Bernd's, I only wish it was lighted better. Perhaps thinned out a bit more so the light shined better. I almost feel like I'm missing out on the detail in alphonse' left half because of it. I guess the smaller prize and later announcement made less of a turnout this year~ Theres only what? about 1/5th the entrants this year? And twice the winners. Some of the non-winning entries last year truly blew me away. People really went over the top. Not that this years were bad, there are still some gems. I really like Jeff & Monica Hartley's. |

Sometimes photos just don't do justice; the rules said no contrast/brightness adjusting. So I had to send the best picture I got. In real life it was much brighter. |
