- Title: Ghost of Christmas Past
- Artist: Mind the Master
-
Description:
`Are you the Spirit, sir, whose coming was foretold to me.' asked Scrooge.
`I am.'
The voice was soft and gentle. Singularly low, as if instead of being so close beside him, it were at a distance.
`Who, and what are you.' Scrooge demanded.
`I am the Ghost of Christmas Past.'
~~~
In the Originals section due to not being based off a specific version. Part of a team entry based on A Christmas Carol by the Phantom Cosplay Thread. - Date: 12/17/2008

- You people disgust me. I'm sorry, but you, as a cosplay team, decided that since you were supposedly basing your avatars on no specific version (personally this avatar looks like a carbon copy of some of the ghosts of Christmas pasts I've seen on stage) that you would butt into the original avatar arena. Thereby stealing, yes stealing, the titles from real original avatar artists and claiming it as your own. Now 4 people's hard earned work on their avatars this past week will go unrewarded.

- (cont) This was a very gray area. Yes, the characters were known, the portrayals on them were indeed original. We felt original was the best choice for that reason. Were we wrong? Maybe, but as I said, it was a gray area, but now we and others know that in the future, most people will see this as cosplay. I hope that clears up both ends.

Wolfram Ysud:
Actually, we debated long and hard whether or not these should be placed in the original or the cosplay. We felt that since they were interpretive, that original was better suited. We did NOT misplace these on purpose. From a PM I still have: " We're still going for the Originals section, right?" "Yes, we were, since they aren't really cosplays of anything, and we made them up." And by that, we meant that we came up with the interpretations. - Report As Spam

- A bit overcreditted don't you think? I mean it's lovely and all but it seems like there was very little skill in dressing the avatar. The arenas need to be fixed this is becoming really ridiculous. People who deserve it are getting their ranks placed fairly.

Anyway enjoy your gold you won.. I do not believe you should be stripped of title or gold since you somehow got into this arena and hid under the radar.. Anyway enjoy the win! - Report As Spam
