MAKEMEABAND CONTEST RESULTS
Introducing Miller McKinnley's brand new band lineup!

The auditions were long and grueling, spanning several months. Some dreams were crushed, others were grazed as certain potential musicians were rejected and others called back for a second interview. Miller met with each prospectful bandmate personally, speaking to them, getting to know them as a person and as a talent. It was an incredibly difficult decision, but finally, after months of waiting, a new line-up was decided upon. Miller announced, in an official press release, the name and members of his new band.

Congratulations to the winners! It was an incredibly difficult decision for me, and I ultimately relied heavily on the help of four different people to help guide my decisions (in other words, don't hate me if you didn't win ;u; orz). In the end, I went mostly on those that were voted for the most, as well as the characters that seemed to have the most time invested into their designs, backstories, and creativity. I also considered how the characters would interact, how they would compliment each other, both in design and personality. All of the submissions were amazing, though, so thank you everyone who entered!

To those who didn't win, don't despair! Watch the upcoming group to stay up to date on happenings of the band. Future contests will be held, as well as random opportunities to either 'collaborate' with the band, or join as a permanent affiliate.

Now for placements! While all accepted characters are winners, there is an order which determines how prizes are distributed! This really has to do with the same criteria listed above, and just how much of the various requirements were met, and how well.

1st Place: Johann Krause by
2nd Place: Fletcher Browne by
3rd Place: Dayren by
4th Place: Collin by
5th Place: Peaches by

**WINNERS PLEASE NOTE: I will be creating a journal sometime soon for prize distribution. Prizes will be listed there again, and you will comment in turns, with 1st place going first, 2nd next, and so on so forth. I'll explain details more then, but please keep an eye out for this journal so prizes can be distributed quickly and efficiently~

In the next few days, an account will be developed for the band, where bandmember profiles will be posted, as well as any artwork currently provided of them. If you have any additional artwork of your winning characters, feel free to send them my way! Also, if you have any additional information you'd like included for your character's 'bio', note me!

Keep in mind that these ARE your characters, whether you've won or not! And really, you're free to do whatever the hell you want with them. The rule I listed for the contest, that you must use the character only for the contest, was simply to prevent anyone from submitting old characters or 'sonas. But now that the contest is over, you can use your character in RPs, other stories, whatever you'd like! This is just for fun, guys :3

Once again, thank you everyone who entered the contest! It really meant a lot to me to have so much success, and I hope to host another one soon! (In fact, I plan on it! :3 )
