Now that the server move is out of the way, our <a href="http://www.rpgcodex.net/content.php?id=174">Mount & Blade MS Paint competition has closed</a>. After much discussion and vigorous debate over lulzy vs good looking images, we have chosen the winnarz.
<br>
<br>
<b>Balathustrius</b> and <b>Andragorn</b> officially tied for first place with their images below:

Their efforts have scored each of them a copy (downloadable Gamer's Gate version) of Mount & Blade. We'll be e-mailing them shortly with details on how they can claim their prize.
<br>
<br>
However, we've also decided we can drag this out even longer by making Codexers decide who should win the third copy that's up for grabs. Just <a href="http://rpgcodex.net/gallery.php?game=mountandbladecompetition&start=0">take a look through the gallery of entrants</a> and post a reply in this thread with who you think should win our last give-away copy. We'll leave voting open for the next five days before announcing the final lucky winner.
<br>
<br>
Edit: ixg is our third and final winner with <a href="http://rpgcodex.net/screenshot.php?file=mountandbladecompetition/ixg_mbhu8.jpg">this festive portrait</a>. Congratulations!

OMG, a cliffhanger! My final vote goes to DefJam.

 

[Trojan_generic]

My vote goes to barker_s for a great interpretation of the theme; also I'd say that it looks like one of those which clearly were made using MS Paint.

 

[dagorkan]

Yeah barker_s's is nice in a minimalistic way. That's not a final vote though

 

[DarkUnderlord]

looks like one of those which clearly were made using MS Paint.

These days you can't really tell.

 

[barker_s]

Can participants vote too? If so, my vote goes to bluebottle for a great depiction of Todd Howard .

Impressive. He could have still 'cheated' using a tablet instead of a mouse...

 

[Balathustrius]

Holy crap, one of mine won? I'd like to thank all the little people that made it possible.

I vote for Kingston's, for the haunting likeness.

 

[dragonfk]

My vote goes to...Kingston.

[Hory]

No crappyness award? Come on, that's entirely the point of a lulzy MS Paint competition, not skill.

 

[The Dude]

+1 on DefJam's "siege this".

 

[Don Peste]

Dire Roach drawing and mine's can't be seen.

 

[Shannow]

I vote for IXG's, for the blood, gore and manical expression.

 

[SimpleComplexity]

I vote for Don Peste, because his can`t be seen! DU is truly cruel.

 

[DarkUnderlord]

Hmmm... They probably got missed in the server move. I've re-made the thumbnails and re-uploaded the images.

We couldn't agree on which crappy one should win¹. There was no single stand-out super-lulz one so we copped out and went for the easy answer of whichever ones were the prettiest pictures. All our personal favourite lulz ones were different where-as Balathustrius and Andragorn appeared as picks from most of the judges.

¹Hence the voting you should be doing now.

 

[Jedi_Learner]

I vote for Kingston, because it made me laugh the most.

 

[Solohk]

I vote for pegultagol.

 

[Trash]

Want shitty paint drawings of merry men mounting horses? Vote for Trash.

 

[OSK]

I vote for ixg's.

 

[SlavemasterT]

I vote for Pooperscooper's.

 

[JarlFrank]

I wanted to vote for myself but I guess I wouldn't get enough votes to win anyways.

That's why I vote for ixg's, I like the drawing and I like the Codex in-joke.

 

[Micmu]

My vote goes for IXG. Gotta love that bloodthirsty face.

 

[Pussycat669]

pegultagol's since it brought back some childhood memories.

 

[Andragorn]

I vote for pegultagol

 

[Andyman Messiah]

I voted for Redeye because I'm afraid of his ostrich.
