It is an amazing signature. So, after Ed was devoured by the hoodlums, the robo-pirates took his skeleton and chained it to a wall, that's very dark :(.

Thank you, I appreciate that. I originally made it for the banner of my Reddit account before I got fed up of the place and left, so I'm glad to have found another community that appreciates Rayman as much as I do. I'm new so I didn't really understand how fierce this competition tends to be until after I entered, so may have bitten off a bit more than I can chew. I thought it was just a casual 'share your signature' community event. :shock:

It originally had nothing to do with Rayman as it was named after my love for the Professor Layton puzzle franchise combined with my interest in history (pottage is a thick soup or stew believed to have been primarily consumed during the Middle Ages). Don't exactly remember why it turned into a Rayman tribute, but I assume it had something to do with the occasional rustic aesthetic of Hoodlum Havoc, one of my favourite video games of all time.

As for Ed, I needed something to justify the look of horrified confusion on Rayman's face. The 'pottage' left him 'puzzled', you could say. I vaguely remember André threatening to nibble on Globox's innards at one point, so I just took things a step further. Oh, and the Hoodlum deep in thought? No idea. Don't ask.

I assume 'freestyle' means that there's no particular theme? I hope so, because I can't even remember what inspired me to make puzzles and
pottage the theme of my online persona. The size rules make it a little hard to see some of the details of the attachment, but it's just my current signature, so you can see it easier if you look at that version.

And, yes, this is why we never saw a sequel to Tonic Trouble. Trust me, I'm good friends with Michel Ancel.

This is such a fun signature! Did you happen to make the art as well or just edit it all together really well? :hap:

Thank you. Edited, not drawn by me. The artist kindly gave me permission to use his work as I wished. I actually created a DeviantArt account just so I could send him a private message about it.https://www.deviantart.com/artdexo2000/art/Hoodmonger-Rayman-3-873430467

He drew the Hoodlum, Rayman, Ed and André, whilst the cauldron and ‘pottage’ are merely assets from the game Darkest Dungeon. I edited it all together in a way that would pertain to my username.
 
Ah damn it! :x Well, let's have a week of voting now then! You can vote for one or two entries!
 
Congratulations PuzPot1390 on winning 650 Tings and a Special Rank! :teuf:

It looks like the last contest was supposed to be themed, but we left it Freestyle… How about a Halloween theme this time?
 
Sorry for being unactive for a little while, guys. Looks like I missed the actual announcement.

A big thank you to everyone who voted for me, and for all your kind words. I'm honoured, especially given how good the other two entries were.

Also, can someone please explain special ranks to me? I've not been on this sight for very long, so I'm not really aware of what they are or how I choose one.
Thanks in advance.

There is a Special Rank archive here, where you can choose one of the ranks available or made your own with the template, after that you can PM one of the admins so they can asign the rank to you.
 
Well, today's the deadline and there are no entries… So it's just as well we didn't go with a Halloween theme, isn't it? :fou2:
 
Well... I was going to submit an entry here before the deadline, but then I couldn't because of things unexpectedly going wrong and it taking a long time to fix them :oops2:

But here it is anyway:
