A few people have asked for comments on the rest of the roles, so I'mgoing to put together what Daevryn and I thought of everyone else.First, though, I would like to apologize for what happened the lasttime I ran a role contest. There was a pretty seriousmisunderstanding between Dalteric and I, and I never meant to insultor hurt anyone with what I said. If this apology is not enough, please feel free to email me at rayihn@carrionfields.com and I willattempt to personally make amends.Now! Much better edited comments than last time. In most cases,Daevryn and I agreed on stuff so I'm not going to really separate what he said from what I said. Now you don't get to know which one of us is the bitch! When I do separate them out - consider me to be Simon Cowell and Daevryn to be Paula Abdul (I know he always wanted to be Paula).Also - if you only wrote your note to me, Daevryn didn't read yourrole. If you only wrote your note to him, I did not read your role.Aquar: I don't know why your storm giant parents would sell you tothis slavery kelp farm full of evil people that torture you for somestale cake. I'm sorry, it doesn't jive well. (This character has deleted since entering, so I'm not ruining anything here I don'tthink.)Zel: I loved the way you made fun of the lucky edge. Your role givesa good voice to the character, and we liked that you named yourservitors.Gharral: I do understand you jump on most things that look likethey're about to move - try and incorporate more of this role intoyour RP, though. It's cool, you could do a lot with it.Dahltu: That's a solid paladin role for the religion you follow. You obviously know all the right answers to all the paladin questions.Flarkon: I don't think that RP and role have to be dedicated orrevolved around your sphere, but I would have liked to have seen atleast something about why you picked the sphere you picked -especially since it's one near and dear to my heart! Aldran: We conflicted a little bit on this role. It's interesting to try and write the role from the perspective of someone who would have a 25 int, big words and all that. We did both say it was pretty solid that you play this role under pressure.Gnashgaar: Yup, you sure are what your role says you are! I enjoyedthe philosophical orcish aspect of it.Hunsobo: I can't think of you without thinking "HAN SOLO!" but maybethat's just me. I dig the role a lot but I've never seen you do thething you said in the first chapter that you do all the darn time. That's cryptic, but you know what I mean I'm sure. Great idea, butyou gotta play it!Teladar: Dwarf sha all the way. Nice balance of dwarf beginninghistory then branching on to applying it to the rest of the characterin the rest of the world. Hope you keep updating.Chiji: You didn't send this to me, but Daevryn liked that it waswritten in the characters voice. Well, he liked the idea of it butcouldn't actually bear reading the whole thing.Zaphoedine: I couldn't help but compare this role to VC Andrew'sFlowers in the Attic. Just a really ####ed up character – though I'mpretty sure I mean that in the good way! Updates are good, even if they get stranger as they go!Annaeia: PS: I love WolverOrcas! I have to say I wasn't sure whatyou were trying to do with this role and this character. (I'm sorrythat was disappointing, I was just sort of bewildered because I had no idea what you wanted from me – maybe it was just quest form, but Iwouldn't be the one to just hand it to you) Don't be afraid to bemore clear. I like the idea of finding beauty in water but I didn't know what was supposed to happen next.Groh: I don't dig the cabal thing you were doing and I thought thechapter to justify it was a little flat. The background partsoutside of that were solid.Kuhlceros: A role well-rooted in the CF world. Solid all around butdidn't stand out as a winner with so many other great roles entered.Dhason: This was an interesting read for me, but again not a hugestand out. I put it better than the middle of the pack, though.Kiril: Standard paladin role – sorry to see you didn't stick it out.Hrok: This was another role that had a hard time keeping myattention. Would have liked more depth on religion choice rather thanhammering on the fact that you'd made the decision.Nastagio: We could only judge the newer bits of it and those paledcompared to the first, super awesome and unique chapters. I also viewgod hopping much the same as cabal hopping.Karanok: I like the war aspect, and that you're trying to play thehell out of it even at a pretty low level.Iia: So! You're super creepy little girl. Now what?? Come on,girl, gimme the dish!Rusylael: That sure is wood elf ranger role. Not terribly much stood out on this for me. There's nothing wrong with being wood elf ranger with a wood elf ranger role, but for role contest winners we look for things that really rise up from the crowd.Maethron: I wouldn't mind seeing more in this role on why you pickedyour thief path. I liked seeing some conflict being good Tribunal, it stands out well in your RP, and I would have liked to have seen it better detailed in your role.Nkrumah: I dug that you picked a different type of way to view yoursphere than most people do. I liked this role and I hope you continue on with it and update it often. Would like to see more chapters about how you're going to RP it rather than just basics of info that don't have a lot to do with the character.Hrudgir: I would have put this right under the honorable mentions.It's not super exciting, but I really like characters who start offnot knowing their path and exactly how to play it and do everythingand grow into it from there. Keep updating, especially when you'replaying this type of character.Theroc: I had a hard time reading through this. I'm sorry I havesuch a short attention span. It didn't hold my interest very well.Eulinda: I expected a better role from you, actually. I hadn't readyour role before the contest but we've all seen your RP and I guess Ijust expected the role to be as rich. Add some stuff! It's been a long time since an update.Desila: Short, good, explains what you are and why you are what youare. Not a stand out, but solid enough that anyone reading it knowswhat you're about.Rosbanin: Disqualified! Sorry! Gotta get those chapters in beforerole contest is announced!Sensel: Hm. I see what you're trying to do with this role, but itdoesn't explain enough to me why you'd change like that. Technicallysolid but it just didn't grab us the way the winning roles did. Also, what has happened since? You've done a lot cabal wise, I would have expected another chapter on that.Thunzath: gotta write that note to both people running the contest.Good, solid fire AP start for me, though.
