Welcome to The 170th Deep Space 9 Avatar Contest's voting thread!! We have 4 entrants this round - so you may vote for one avatar per category but not your own. Votes cast that do not follow the rule will be subtracted from the final tally. I'll leave the poll open for 3 days. Have fun!! This round's themes were: DS9 episode:The Forsaken DS9 Theme: Ships In Action Random Theme: Villains ------ Episode ---------------- Theme ------------- Random Theme ---- ------------------- _ ----------------------- _ Marie1 _ _ Gul Spook _ _ Deranged Nasat _ _ Loki Entek
To avert the wrath of the Jem'Hadar, we could declare Gul Spook the winner, so each of us has a category to choose? (I see the Cardassians are now our last, best hope for peace, Gul Spook! Very nice)
TY voters (except the voters of DOOOOOMMMM!!!!) and congrats winners! Yes - as per my system in the case of a tie if my complex math equations = what they should - whoever didn't win in another category gets the tied category.

That's part of our evil plan Thank you for this not-won success! I shall drink kanar to that Let's go with "Family Business" and the Ferengi
DS9 theme? Let's see. In some ways I think this one's the hardest. I know! While I can already guess some of the likely entries, let's go with "favourite Kira moments". Kira Nerys is one of my favourite characters - if not the favourite - and I'd like to see what comes to mind when other people appreciate the character...
Who are you? Gul Spook of the Cardassian Guard. What do you want? Only what is best for Cardassia. Why are you here? This territory is now part of the Cardassian Union. Where are you going? To oversee the establishment of my new orbital station. I expect ore quotas to be met on target.
The truth is a three edged sword and... And this is a mark three spatial wave disruptor rifle pointed straight at you with a fleet of Galor class destroyers in orbit, the truth is that you are now a subject of the august Cardassian Union my cryptic one eye friend.
^ We're destined to rule all Discworlds of Diskuniversum In the name of Legate Damar, Deranged Nasat was eavesdropping! I must execute my sloppy security guards. Uhm, my station will be built as the last hope for peace. Yes, that's the official version and that's what I'll keep repeating. Yes.
Hmm, my orbital station has one unfulfilled task: where's the Random Theme report? Garresh (and I do know it's just your cover, you evil Obsidian Order spy) Loki Entek, report to my office at once! And you better have the theme ready or we may be facing a Jem'Hadar invasion!
Official communication from Agent Zeta Zero Five One# (code name Loki Entek) of the Obsidan Order to Gul Spook (category 5 observation target): RE:information As per the official articles of Unionsation as decreed by the First Castellan I should take this opportunely to reprimand you for your erroneous assumption that the Central Command is entitled to and required to exercise due authority over an agent of the Obsidan Order nor should said agents undercover role ever be exposed during the course of his or her duty in service to the Union. Please see attached message from E as regards to proper procedure in this matter... However, after discussion with my superiors and a through analysis of the inter quadrant situation by same, I have been mandated to present the classified information to you via the medium of the 'random entry' contest beloved of the Terrans. Using our sociopolitical knowledge of the most dominant species in the United Federation of Planets (threat category: Alpha plus plus one) and on the advice of our senior psychological warfare experts coupled with the current season in the northwest of the humans second largest continent, I have chosen the following category to be viewed alongside the images of the known terrorist Kira Nerys of the Shakaar Cell (please see secondarily attached file) and the disturbing documentary on our Ferengi neighbors: Sinister Namely any person, event or thing that gives you a negative reaction akin to the feeling that you are being watched by a very disturbing powerful organization (and you are, but it is for your own good citizen!) or just creeps you out. You can use any fictional or real life (so deemed) object, individual or event to convey this dread in the approved size indicated. Do NOT go over...I will be watching.... (This, coupled with an attendant operation over a an adjacent caption competition should distract over foes long enough for the next stage of our operations to come into effect my dear Gul. Continue your surveillance of the individual codenamed 'Deranged' Nasat he is not to be underestimated on any account.) Agent Zeta Zero Five One# ending communication. Cardassia Forever.
:::muttering to herself::: Those #$@#% &%^&% #@$# Obsidian types. Oooooh, I'm soooo scared... NOT! You bureaucratic terrorist... $@#$@#! You're on my station and if your failure brings doom to it, I'll chop you to pieces with a dried baguette. "Category 5", eh? Pffffrrrr... It is not normal to read a post on a forum and laugh out loud at one's laptop, is it?
