Arm Challenge #1: Best Screenshots (NEW Price pot: 40a!)

1)

2a)

My biggest regret,

Not playing when filled with folks...

and terrible names.

2b) Amusing Etymology, take anything in GW1 and explain it's name in a funny way ... so the Charr are called so because when young they're fascinated by flames and it often leads to their fur getting a little singed.

3) 92 95 97

Hello everybody. I was wondering something.
Lexx, do you know when and how you will roll your dice ? To pick the winners.
Will it be in game ? Just like it used to be in the glorious Guild Wars years ? A big party in LA ?
Or will you just tell us here who are the chosen ones.
Thanks for your answer.

Hi Lexx,

Thanks a lot doing this contest (furthermore saw on facebook your motivation to do it, and its very humble !)

1/
Here comes dat image ;)

2/a)
"Kurzick Juggernaut,
Like David versus Goliath,
Broke me in pieces " (PS : sorry for my poor vocabulary xD)

2/b)
I remember an old buddy which goal was to create the worst looking armor set for warrior ... It could be an idea of contest : every participant offer his set & has 1 vote (which can't be for himself).

3/ i'll choose numbers : 14, 3 & 92

Thanks again Lexx !

How about a screenshot from a cinematic with a funny detail? Like a minion attacking one of the characters, or someone using a goofy-looking-yet-oddly-appropriate outfit?

Quote from Lexx

As this was my first real competition, I'm open for suggestions for how I can improve things until next time I run a competition. All in all I think it went fairly well

Suggestion: Just not having a comp and handing me the prize straight up
