Eternal248 is unable to perform his duties as judge due to real life.
I'll go ahead and calculate the scores as soon as all the judges post their scores.
2 judges left to post ranks, btw.

#1 Artist: Dwib
Cuchulainn as Oogie Boogie
Queklain, Elidibs (human form)

Original and perfectly created. I like this one the best because of the brilliance behind it.

#2 Artist: Dwib
Teioh as a Ghostbuster
Teioh (Hatless Thief) & Mustadio

Dwib's on a role! Ghostbuster, another great sprite. Inventive and pretty humorous and unique. The ghost catcher addon is pretty good too. I had trouble deciding between the Oogie and Ghostbuster.

#3 Artist: Aquablack
Funeral Butler Dude as Business Casual Cthulhu
Squidraken, Funeral Butler Dude, Demon (human form)

Even though this is #3, this is one awesome sprite. A squid with a suit, especially Cthulhu. Great job.

#4 Artist: PX_Timefordeath & Saigas
Ultima as Morrigan Aensland
Ultima (First Form)

Ahh Morrigan. I remember playing as her in a fighting game and how cheap she was. Even though it wasn't perfect, they both turned out a great sprite.

#5 RolyTunedIn
Generic Dragon as The Jersey Devil
Generic Dragoon, Various

Lets just say that he can fly. (good sprite and all, but that flying part was good).

#6 Artist: Bastard Poetry
Bloody Cúchulainn
Cúchulainn

Another Queklain, but this time hes bloody and looking for more. Looks kinda bright but it is a well made sprite. Props BP.

#7 Artist: jimmyjw88
Purple Mystery as Death
Purple Mystery

Gotta love the Reaper. Halloween can't live without him.

#8 Artist: Seushiro
Monk as Ifrit
Monk M + Belias + Custom

Final Fantasy Theme for Halloween? How in the world does that work? Well it does! All thanks to Seushiro!

#9 Scarecrow

I love scarecrows, the pumpkin pulled it off quite well.

#10 Artist: jimmyjw88
White Mage as Vampire
White Mage M + Orlandeau + Beowulf + Calculator F + Mediator M + Oracle M

A well made Vampire. Good quality too.

#11 Artist: Jumza
White Mage as Black Cat Witch
White Mage F + Custom

Interesting Cat Witch. But the coloring is somewhat bland. But it still works.

#12  Artist: Zalge
Bomb as Pumpkin
Bomb

My my a pumpkin bomb. Who would have thought of an exploding pumpkin?

#13 Artist: Cold 52
Meliadoul as Headless Horseman
Meliadoul + Balmafra + Generic Knight + Custom

Even though the concept was great and it was given some time, it really didn't move me as much. But it was creative, props for that.

#15 Artist: Jumza
Calculator as Skelelator
Calculator M + Skeleton

Very Simple and Halloween like.

#16 Artist: Jumza
Black Mage as Devil's Servant
Black Mage M + Skeleton

Same as above except even simpler. Horns on a Black Mage. Not bad!

Gah.  Sorry for the ranking delay.  Realizing you have half a dozen deadlines within two or three days is not fun.  I'll finish them sometime before tonight, I swear.

1st is a tie between the following for matching the theme, being entertaining, and looking great:

Artist: Dwib
Oogie Boogie

Artist: Dwib
Ghostbuster

...and I only just noticed it was the same artist.



2nd is a tie for looking awesome but not matching the theme (except for one of them):

Artist: Aquablack
Business Casual Cthulhu

Artist: Seushiro
Monk as Ifrit

* Artist: PX_Timefordeath & Saigas
Morrigan Aensland

* While it looked slightly less great than the other two, I felt it was more in the spirit of Halloween.



3rd tied for good editting:

Artist: RolyTunedIn
Jersey Devil

Artist: Seushiro
Raziel



4th tied for looking decent and being traditional for Halloween:

Artist: Zalge
Pumpkin

Artist: jimmyjw88
Vampire



5th for being decent all around, except for the face:

Artist: Cold 52
Headless Horseman



6th tied for decent but unimaginative editing.

Artist: Jumza
Black Mage as Devil's Servant

Artist: Jumza
Calculator as Skelelator



7th tied for just not liking the looks of them (hey, at least I'm being honest about my reasoning):

Artist: Sen
Black Mage as Scarecrow

Artist: Jumza
White Mage as Black Cat Witch



8th tied for spooky stuff but lower quality editing:

Artist: jimmyjw88
Death

Artist: Bastard Poetry
Bloody Cúchulainn




There were quite a number of them I liked equally with others, so there were a LOT of ties...

Please, remember that it was not only PX that did the work on Morrigan. I was the one who did the gruntwork spriting. He came up with the concept and the palette. I don't appreciate being left out.

That's the official ranking right?
Well done!

Well, if not, I'll sum all the points. Sorry for the delay!!
Kage, do you still want to post your verdicts? If yes, please
do so now.
