I have almost finished the Code Drop. c: I judged this round because Octo was busy... and I had spare time. There's only one kennel I want Octo to look over, because I'm... stumped. >.<;
Now, a few notes to say about this round.
I was sorely disappointed in how few forms were actually completed. :c So many barely reached beyond a basic personality, that I just started closing out of the forms if I could see the kennel ID and the end of the post without scrolling. There was only one "short" form that I gave the character to, but I was the creator of that one, I know it's going to a good home, and the adopter and I discussed ideas before the form was posted, so I knew more of what was going on than the form let on.
I urge you all to find critique - somewhere, anywhere - and take that crit to improve your form. I also urge you to complete your form, and, if it's getting close to three months old without getting the character, edit it. Make changes. Clarify. Trash it and start from scratch... anything. When you want a character enough to be able to go back and start over... we really like that.
We're a bit tougher than other agencies. We like it that way. Artists that make such beautiful donations that we're well-known for... I think they trust us with characters because of that. And I'm rather proud that we have such wonderful characters in our kennels. So let's keep it that way, yeah? :)
