Default WINNERS of the Psionics Folio Contest

Well, the extended timeframe produced some creative entires, but I would suspect that the Psionic theme scared some people off.

The_Demented_One slam dunked the Item category, gaining more votes than all other contenders combined. The rest were all close races decided by one vote. Not too many people voted for the Best Overall category, but palcosmo did pull in the majority of those that did.

Best Mythology - Delusions by dbsousa
Best Creature - Far Beasts by The_Glyphstone
Best Feat - Rejuvenating Trance/Accelerated Rejuvenation by The Vorpal Tribble
Best Item - Synaptic Junctions by The_Demented_One
Best Power - Psyche Explosion by Tharivol
Best Prestiege Class - Emissary of the Beyond by The_Glyphstone
Best Race - Somnambul by The Vorpal Tribble
Best Overall - Takara by palcosmo

WampaX's Best in Show - Crystalborn Creatures by Sacrath

Hope you had fun and I'll try to not tackle such an ambitious contest the next time around.

Just to keep this all together, a link to all the other entries.

Maybe half of those I chose won (including Demented's items ;D ), but then my views on psionics isn't everyone's ;)


Congrats guys!

Not one of my picks one, except for Glyphstone's Emissary. So much for my telepathy...Speaking of which, any idea what the next contest will be?

I have to agree with WampaX's choice, though I didn't get to look through many entries. Those crystalborn creatures are very very cool. And I'd also like to know when the next contest is; I want to participate this time around. :)
