I am still psyched from yesterday when Jenni, Debz, Puggle and I WERE Teen Girl Squad! Altho we looked a bit like crazy 80's goth-punk rockers, what we really were was AWESOME!.... or something.
First thing I would like to say is that our costumes were not the most ... elaborate or beautiful. That prize should go to Pinque's gorgeous Eowyn outfit. So Beautiful. I mean, we weren't even completely hemmed! Plus the make-up we wore was just plain freaky. Especially me. Apparently I looked like a Japanese Horror movie character. Possibly a zombie. Thanks!
I think what got us ahead of others was a combination of annoying Teen Girl Squad voices, a truely hilarious script (all credit to www.homestarrunner.com ), leading to a truely hilarious skit (all credit to Matt who did ALL our voices for that) and an attention to certain details. We made our custumes as 2-D as possible, including ridiculous hair. We had blue lines running across our faces and outfits, they are drawn on refill. Puggle, Jenni and Debz had beautiful 2-D turn-out for their legs (I didn't have to, so didn't). In the skit, whenever our character had to speak we just stepped forward and opened our mouths wide while Matt did all the talking. This is accurate as Strongbad does all the voices for the squad on the show.
Anyway, we were surprised to win, but we are thankful. I'm sorry if others felt that they deserved it more than us, maybe you did. Jenni and I are just happy that we finally got some kind of acknowledgement for what is now 3 years (and 4 times) of entering this competition.
I spent my prize money on Anime DVDs. Sooo cheap! I love you madman!
