Previously on the Enterprise Avatar Contest...
All right, trebbs members have spoken and the results are in. Are you ready to find out who our champions are?

*pregnant pause with dramatic music to heighten the sense of anticipation*

In our episode category, we have a record-breaking tie between not two, but three contestants!

First there's Admiral Shran with an avatar that would melt any but the iciest heart:

Next in first place is HopefulRomantic with a pensive Sim--or is that Trip? I can never tell those two apart. :p

Last in our tie for first place is Skywalker with a sweet moment between Sim and our favorite beagle:

Congratulations, you three, now you can begin to battle over who gets the unparalleled opportunity to run the next avatar contest!

Wait! I haven't forgotten about our runners-up. :) Ironically, there was a three-way tie for that as well.

First up for puppy kisses is I am Surak with an avatar extolling the virtues of T'Pol's lovely curves:

Next, we have JiNX-01 receiving beagle licks for displaying that poignant moment where T'Pol overcomes her aversion to unsanitary human kissing and plants one on Sim:

And finally, od0_ital earns some love for that sweet scene of young Sim:

Fortunately, there were no ties in the Theme category.

HopefulRomantic ran away with the Golden Porthos with her T'Pol in Uniform avatar, which is utterly irresistable to ENT fans around the world:

Skywalker eeked in 2nd place with a compelling avatar depicting the tough choice season 3 Archer had to make in the expanse--to strand another species or give up his mission to save his own planet.

Congratulations to all!

(I'll let you in on a little secret though... I'm the real winner since I finally managed to find an avatar that didn't earn a single vote! w00t! Go me!!)

Take it away people!

*tosses the Sceptor toward the three episode winners and sits back to watch the battle*
Admiral Shran and HopefulRomantic were both kind enough to let me take the Sceptor [sic] and run with it. The next episode on the list is "North Star," in which our intrepid crew stumbles upon a planet in the Expanse populated by humans--except they're cowboys. :eek:

And our theme this week is "Incognito," as suggested by our own HopefulRomantic, who explained it thusly:
... how about "Incognito"? That would be any of our intrepid crew in costume or disguise to blend in with the natives. And no, I don't mean IaMD. (Too easy.)
Emphasis mine.

Right, then. Standard avatar rules apply, the entry thread will run through Tuesday night and the voting thread will go up early Wednesday morning (U.S. Eastern time). Good luck! :techman:
 
I thought about using this one of the lovely MACO Private S. Money for my episode entry, but decided not to because you can't see her whole face.

Thoughts?
 
^ My thoughts: Use it. It's different and I like seeing women depicted as strong and capable. It'll get my vote. :)
 
^ Agreed. I once devoted a whole thread to the fact she is the only redshirt that gets shot all the freaking time and always survives. Use it!

I did an animated .gif with Money a while back. You can't keep her down. :biggrin:

Here's an alternate screencap I found that shows more of her face...

 
Here are my entries for this contest.

For the Episode I chose T'Pol quietly admiring her Cowboy captain's rugged looks

and for the Theme it is our lovely T'Pol dressed ready for a visit to the little house on the Prairie.

I always enjoy seeing Jolene and this one with her dress on backwards is priceless BUT didn't the specs for the Theme contest say:
... how about "Incognito"? That would be any of our intrepid crew in costume or disguise to blend in with the natives.

I do not recall that T'Mir was ever part of the Enterprise crew. It's still time to change your entry Spectre:)
Then on the other hand keeping her is fine with me and I am guilty of it myself.:)

Eh, I'll allow it. It's a minor technicality. Besides, the ENT avatar contests don't get as much traffic as, say, the SFF contests, so in my opinion: the more, the merrier. :techman:
 
^ Well, to be honest, when I created the avatar, I forgot about the final scene in Carbon Creek that revealed that T'Pol's story was indeed historically accurate.

Still, if you want to be really nitpicky, you could say that what we "see" in that episode isn't really T'Mir but rather T'Pol's imagination portraying her great-grandmother to look exactly like her. So my avatar would indeed show a member of our intrepid crew :p;)
