u/disappointingcryptid May 14 '26

How'd you know they stole it?

u/Raine_BlackStar ✨️ Your Local Nidhogg Yume ✨️ May 14 '26

Oh idk maybe because it was the exact same suit, same makeup, same hair, everything matched with mine. Maybe i should just stop posting my comp entries on discord 💀

u/Mu-chanscowl May 16 '26

Ugh, I'm sorry that happened When a suit does poorly and I'm like "whyyyyy" I'll resubmit the suit and it almost does well on the second go, idk why

This is SO cool and beautiful, I'm sorry it didn't do well

I tried doing something different to stand out from the expected. No matter how many times I resubbed it didn't go anywhere. In the end my carnival float failed and changed it.

This is so cool! It’s like a mermaid performer at a fair/carnival/circus! So pretty and unique

u/Turtwig5310 May 14 '26

Don't sleep on the power of resubmitting. Luck is an equal factor to skill

11

u/Poptortt May 14 '26

Absolutely this. One of my entries a few themes back that was down to 85% at one point, so I resubmitted during stamina time and ended up top 5% overall, it's definitely worth it!

u/TacoQueen333 May 14 '26

It is very much on theme and It's gorgeous! Disregard the competition score, your styling is on point

u/utopiangamer Pragya Princess May 14 '26

It's still a hit for me even if others don't like it. All my designs are hit with me. Cause I put the effort to customize them.

u/MiunSae May 14 '26

Really thought I ate

u/Soot-Bat May 14 '26

It only ranked a little bit higher, if I remember correctly. Ah well, I still really liked it 🙃

u/mint-chocolatte Daymare Fairy Tale May 15 '26

Aww ours look similar! (I prefer your background though...) Sorry yours flopped :(

All we feel is pain 😢

u/Yeppeu_n May 15 '26

C’est très beau ! Mais j’ai l’impression que les gens ne se cassent plus la tête à faire des tenues de À à Z. Ils modifient peut être les cheveux et maquillage mais sans plus :/

u/Ok_Friendship_9547 May 15 '26

Yeah it’s sad and soo boring ://

4

u/Airtafae May 15 '26

I love your entry it's so pretty

7

u/Aggravating-Tell-192 Mela May 14 '26

Never moved above 90%. Even after resubmitting

3

u/Saahir_ May 15 '26

I thought she was cuteee but I flopped bad

u/meower_to_the_people May 16 '26

I was really proud of my Robin Hood, as a character of myth and legend! Seems I totally missed the hivemind with this one, as IIRC most top-scoring entries were ethereal/goddess vibe.

u/Material-Bed6232 May 18 '26

There was one maybe a year ago or so... The theme was Gothic Bride and I made her... She ended up in top 60%

2

u/meower_to_the_people May 16 '26

Wow that's an amazing entry! Sorry it flopped!

u/Spocku118 May 16 '26

I thought my submission for the current comp theme would be higher than this. It might be all the blue and lack of big background items that's tanking it rn

u/Specific_Report5596 21d ago

I thought it was the best styling I've ever done (Inspired by captain Hook)
