As always, thank you to everyone that took the time to participate in any contest I put on my blog; I truly appreciate it.
Some of the entries made me chuckle, some made me nod in agreement, some made me go WTF?
Overall, I chose the winner based on appropriateness to my vision of Roc, as well as what was most creative given the situation.
WINNER: Blind Philip of EVE Observations
You have won yourself a short story, written by yours truly, about your character, as well as a Caldari Navy Hookbill. Please email me the following:
- The ingame character name you want the ship contracted to
- The ingame character name and large profile picture you want the story written about
- A brief history about your character so I can have at least a touch of insight when writing
Thanks again to all. I will definitely do this again!
ROC'S RAMBLINGS 
Grats!
Looks like I did not see that it was an in-Roc comment that had to be made.
So I guess I got the WTF 🙂
Not at all. One of my fave three entries had the caption for the girl.
Thanks Roc, dropped you a line in game, thanks!
… Someone explain to me why this is good/funny/WTF… i don’t get it (and i think im not the only one).
Sure, I can explain it…
I chose it as the winner because I really enjoyed the poetic contrasts in this simple statement.
You have an innocent child, a female (inferior species to most races), obviously meeting her “hero”, ex-Colonel Roc Wieler.
The gruff, hard as nails, capsuleer, dressed the tough guy part, could easily have just signed an autograph, or ignored her, but instead shares his own vulnerability, his own humility, and imparts a life lesson to this girl.
It’s very dramatic.
