How many categories will there be and what is the prize for each.

Perhaps 2-3 categories for both male and female, but we'll see! As for the prize money; it all depends how many donations I receive, but right now it stands at around 150 million ISK split among the separate winners.

Pickles!

Most beardy?


I like the idea of having a category for manly/scruffy (opposite of girly/adorable?) or even dirtiest character. Disclaimer; I do know a good number of clean men with beards, but there does seem to be a higher ratio of beards amongst dirtier and homeless men.

I also like the most evil, or villainous category mentioned above.

There was recently a fairly large thread for the ugliest avatar which was actually quite comprehensive and fun.

The more general categories like most attractive or best pose/lighting are primary factors that will weigh for the main "Best male and female avatar" category and probably will have some overlap.

I do hope that when selecting categories we'll go for original categories and avoid turning this into a beauty pageant with an overload of categories like cutest, sexiest, most attractive etc. which all basically mean the same thing anyway.

I'd love to see some real EvE-related categories. And while these might be a lot more vague I do believe that they'll add a lot to the competition and that we can trust CCP Affinity to know enough about EvE to make an informed decision.

I'm thinking about things like:
- Most convincing Wormhole Explorer
- Most convincing Corporate Director
- Most convincing Pirate, Criminal or Slaver.
- Most convincing Vigilante or Freedom Fighter.

With most convincing I mean that when looking at that character you instantly go "That guy/gal clearly is a pirate! Just look look at him/her!".

Further clarification could be added to each category by deciding on a few keywords that match that category. A corporate director should look cunning, calculating and cold. A vigilante should look compassionate and courageous. A pirate should look unkempt and ruthless. etc.

+1, I like this approach. Kind of like the characters on the main page. ( http://www.eveonline.com/sandbox/pirate/ )

Can we sign in a character that is currently unactive and can't sign in herself?

I am not crazy enough to reactivate Indahmawar just to compete...
