There really are some AMAZING costumes in the entries, just incredible people want to put so much effort in a costume!
Couldn't do it myself, but I'm jealous of you guys .

I mean this in the kindest way, but some of these winning selections are fucking ridiculous.

Now, I'm not going to say I deserved to win first, because I don't, and Painguy had a great costume (despite the fact that he, and a lot of other runner-ups, didn't actually follow the contest rules-- but who cares about contest rules, right?). But seriously, costumes like omgpwn666's won over costumes like my own and phantomicecube's? $5 worth of shitty walmart masks and plastic swords won over an amazing Ryuk costume and a very competent Mario costume?

Now personally, I could care less about prizes, especially ones that you can get on dealextreme for about $3. But seriously? Seriously?
