Geez, I get 115432q5325235252 decimals...

Round Note:
This one can be interpeted as a sunrise, sunset, its also very dark looking for all you emos out there.


Team Hugh:

yoshi4007 - a new day dawns
This is a very generic subtext, it's the kind you'd expect. Also seems a bit boring, doesn't it? - 6.5/10

Ryguy - As one journey draws to an end...*fade*...another waits to begin
I like this one, although it seems kinda wordy and doesn't seem to fit as well. Perhaps it would be better off simpler... However, in a designers view, this subtext would look very nice on the signature. - 8/10

Benladesh - Every ray of light that breaks through *fade* Is a new ray of hope for us all
I see where you're going with this... however, I dont like the "Ray of Light" part, because there really aren't any rays of lights. Its also a bit too cheerful for the signature, I guess. However, from a designers point of view, this subtext would look nice on the signature. - 7/10

Kagemucha - The sanguine sun lingers to an end.. *fades* .. my end approaches
I rather like this one, it's one of the emo subtexts that work so well. I'm kinda on the fence on the word "sanguine". On one hand, I'm glad you didn't use a generic word like red or crimson or something, on the other hand, it's doesn't work that well if the person would have to look it up. However, this is still a great subtext overall. (It'd also look good on the signature from a designer's point of view) - 9/10

sirclucky - The Start of the Day's Purple Haze
This one fits the signature's image nicely. The only problem I have with this is that this is... kind of boring. However, I'm glad you kept to the image and made a very fitting subtext. - 8/10

Team Laurie:

Kugetsu - A beautiful start to a beautiful day.
Eehh, this one's a little wordy. It also doesn't really seem that beautiful. It's rather cloudy, of course, it could be beautiful if you like dark and a bit forboding. This just seems a bit too ":happy:" for the signature. - 7/10

Jlt1990 - Breaking down the day..*fade*one light at a time..
I like the first part, how "breaking down the day" has two meanings. The second part is kind of... ehh. I suppose you couldn't have one without the other, but the second part really puts me off. However, this would look lovely on the signature from a designer's point of view. - 8/10

Icey - In these rolling waves of clouds *new line* I find a strange, warm traquility...
I love the first part, it's great. Fits the images nicely, however, the second part puts me off. It also seems a little peppy. Perhaps something a bit more dark and forboding would've worked nicely. Or even, leave it to the reader's imagination and leave a "..." at the end of "In these rolling waves of clouds". Also, from a designer's point of view, I would much rather have you use a fade than two different lines. - 8.5/10

seashell_jr - nature gazes in wonder at dawn’s creation...
I love this one, when I read it, I was like... wow! That's so creative. I have one teeny problem with it, trees aren't the most observant of organisms... this would've worked so much better in a similar signature though. - 9/10

Notinuse - Beginning of the end
It's a little bland and expected, I like how you've taken the emo route though. - 6.5/10

(Jetman told me that all his ratings are only up to one decimal point, everything else were just random number fillers)

As you can see, we have a tie, so I gotta bring the secret judge in! =D

Wow, interesting that although the ratings are to the tenth place, the teams are still tied.

..Interesting to me, anyways.

The next time someone calls anything of mine emo, I will find their house and burn it down. In the middle of the night. And make it look like an accident.

yoshi4007 - a new day dawns
Simple but not great, expected not inspiring. 6/10

Ryguy - As one journey draws to an end...*fade*...another waits to begin
I like this, it covers both ends of the spectrum as well as it can relate to the user 9/10

Benladesh - Every ray of light that breaks through *fade* Is a new ray of hope for us all
Another good use of space and feeling in this signature, I like the analogy of the rays "struggling" to break through the cloud bank 8.5/10

Kagemucha - The sanguine sun lingers to an end.. *fades* .. my end approaches
Very mellow text and matches the muted colours of the sky 8/10

sirclucky - The Start of the Day's Purple Haze
Text matches colours but lacks something, I think you could do better next time 6.5/10


Team Laurie:
Kugetsu - A beautiful start to a beautiful day. The use of the double adjective detracts from this text, maybe something like "smudges of colour herald a beautiful day" 7/10

Jlt1990 - Breaking down the day..*fade*one light at a time..
The concept is good, I just have a problem with the "one light" Use of fade was very appropriate 7/10

Icey - In these rolling waves of clouds *new line* I find a strange, warm tranquility...
I love this, but feel either a fade would have worked better or that the two lines are different. 8/10

seashell_jr - nature gazes in wonder at dawn’s creation...
oooo I Love it...captures the feel and depth of the signature 9/10

Notinuse - Beginning of the end
Simple but meaningful, at first glance I thought it was too simple, however it "dawned" on me 7.5/10

Which brings us to...

Team Hugh had the lower score, yoshi4007 is eliminated

Subtexts Due: Feb. 15

NOTE:
The team that will have the elimination is the one with the lowest total score. So if someone has not submitted, you will lose the points for their subtexts COMPLETELY! So try to get everyone on your team to submit a subtext. You may not change your subtexts once you have submitted it. If there are an odd number of contestants, I will take the average of the team, round it to the nearest .5 and add it to their score.
