I am just curious to know why the same skin and picture is in this planet minecraft post. Wasnt the purpose of the competition to CREATE your own skin, not just COPY AND PASTE, jus curious. Not blaming anyone.

Anyway here is the link to the post of the zombie taco skin....

Lol. Nice skin Taco! Gratz.

That skin is pretty scary. If I saw that in mob form coming at me I would probably run.

Nice job Taco

Congratulations to the winner.

I don't know, but I thought my costume was by far the scariest and a perfectly good joke gone to waste.

So he won a Skin Competition with a skin he didn't create himself? The skin is on Planet Minecraft and it is very popular, a lot of people use this skin... it is good indeed, but why would someone who didn't make their own skin win a Competition with such a massive price? 30 Days of VIP & 3000 Tokens for something you did not even make yourself isn't exactly fair.

Admittedly, I thought this was unique... however, I still liked King's story that he put with the skin. I believe a few others in the contest had actually submitted pre-made skins or skins made by others, so It isn't a huge deal. There will be plenty more chance to win things in the future, such as VIP.

I am still not a fan of the fact that he won such a massive price for doing a simple Copy / Paste, but if you wont take the price from him, it's nothing I can do, I will just continue to dislike the fact that he won with something he didn't make himself, it's a real shame.

OTHER people like Tidal and me made skins that are actually CRATIVE AND ORIGINAL; i even made a video of me doing it if accusations were made...

I myself took 30 mins making the skin and like 5 in the story, i dont care if i dont win but i do care if people who took 2 mins copy pasting and 5 mins in the story win the Grand Prize

DrewG2001 · « **Reply #14 on:** 5 Nov 2013, 21:47:30 »

i kinda agree with miner and alpha but,

GREAT JOB TACO!!!!

p.s. Foob was i supposed to have a story to go alog, or just an explination?

86maxsmart · « **Reply #15 on:** 5 Nov 2013, 22:42:45 »

Seem to recall something about certain people always complaining or starting fights. Hmmm...

But I digress, congrats Taco. I do think Taco Bell Taco's are generally more afraid of me though.

So you're saying I am complaining by saying whats right? He shouldn't have won, he didn't make the skin, so he won by doing nothing, which me and others don't like.

Congrats Mr. Taco, enjoy your free vip and 3k tokens

Why shouldn't he have won if he didn't make the skin? They were no rules set on the competition stating you cannot use another skin. Lots of others were using skins from PMC too, due to not a lot of people are good with creating skins perhaps.

Anyways,

Congratulations Taco. And if you don't know what to do with the tokens, you know I am always accepting donations

It shouldnt matter whenever youre good or bad, trying is already better then just stealing something and claiming it as yours and afterwards striking with your not so fair earned price.

I ask the winner nicely to be sporty and price the award to someone else who has actually spend time into creating the skin whenever its a bad or good skin, putting in effort and having fun while doing so is more worth then winning anything with what isnt yours.

Pot meet kettle. lol Too funny.

Don't let anyone bully or make you feel bad kingtaco. You keep your prize and do whatever YOU want with it.

Can you all get over it, I don't want to seem mean or anything but Taco won fair and square as fatnoob (foob) said. So instead of trying to get everyone attacking Taco just congratulate him, and move on. And fatnoob did say there will be more opportunities to win something.

Were all a community who win and loose together. A big Minecraft family

Thats what it said in the competition post, for me it seems very clear that "your" states a skin that you own because of you being the author/creator.

Anyway congratulations for "winning"...

I agree with Foob. I thought the story was unique on top of the skin. Sure he might not have made the skin but he added a story to it and made it his own.

- The most creative skin will receive: 3000 Tokens and 1 month of V6 VIP

Im not trying to put fuel on the fire, I love being creative and I admire hard work others put into their creations whenever its good or bad, in my eyes these people are the winners.
But what we see here contains a minor piece of creativity, yes alot of people are probably gonna disagree with me but everyone can sit on the toilet write a story thats 45 words long about tacos while he/she is dumping them in the toilet

I hope things like these wont occur in the future and I hope people will accept this opinion.

EDIT: To make it short, creativity should have been awarded not the other way around.

Anyways congratz for winning I guess.
