[Contest] Dofus Movie Mayhem!
It's movie blockbuster season, and at DOFUS HQ, we're celebrating with contest where you share your favorite movie memories. Take a screenshot in-game of DOFUS characters recreating your favorite movie scenes, and you could win a rare set and a month of free subscription!


To enter the contest, you must create a screenshot of DOFUS characters re-enacting famous movie scenes in-game. Try to be as elaborate and accurate as possible - we want to really be in the scene, not just see a character saying a line from a movie!

Here's an example, can you guess which famous movie scene is portrayed below?

 
The five top entries will receive the full Empire Set, plus a Gupin pet, and a month of DOFUS subscription! We'll also have prizes for the top 10 runners-up, who will receive the complete Empire set. In order to encourage participation, this contest allows group entries. That's right, if you create a movie scene screenshot as a group and your screenshot is judged to be one of the winners, every member of the group will receive this prize (limit one prize per account). Appoint one person to submit the entry and make sure they include all the participent's names.
You have until 10 AM GMT (that's noon Dofus Time) on Tuesday, June 5th, 2012 to submit your entries right here in this thread!

Here's a more detailed list of the rules:
  • All valid entries must be in the form of an in-game screenshot. Some image-editing may be allowed to help combine multiple "takes" into a single screenshot if necessary, but editing or non in-game graphics should not be the focus of the entry.
  • Entries must attempt to portray a scene from a movie - not a television show, radio drama, webcomic, theater production, etc.
  • Entries must be in English.
  • Any entries that violate the Terms and Conditions of DOFUS will be disqualified without notification.
  • All rulings on what does and does not violate the Terms and Conditions of DOFUS will be at the sole discretion of Ankama. These ruling are not open for debate and may not be contested.
  • In the interest of time, only one entry per person is permitted.
  • Should players wish to participate as a group, they may all enter together. Should a group entry be named one of the winners, all members of the group will receive the associated prize.
  • If an account has already participated in a group entry, it will not be eligible to participate in any other entry, either as a member of a group, or individually.
  • Winning entries will be chosen by a panel of judges appointed by Ankama.
  • Entries will be judged based on how well the scene in question was recreated, as well as creativity and originality.
  • By submitting an entry to the Contest, each entrant agrees to comply with and be bound by these Official Rules and acknowledges that the decisions of Ankama shall be final and binding in all matters relating to the Contest.
  • The participants grant the organizer the right to use their entries for any promotional means (Publication in the Dofus Manga, Dofus Magazine, on their websites, etc.) without any financial or other reward.

Yes! It has been an embarrassingly long time since the close of this contest and the announcement of the winners, and my deep apologies for the extreme delay... but FINALLY! It's here! (I did promise that it would be before Kwismas, and I'm clinging to that technicality.)

The winners of the 2012 Movie Mayhem Contest!

First of all, our top five entries (as chosen by our panel of judges and in no particular order):

Negila & Team: Glengarry Glen Ross
Judges' Comments: The use of an Armored Dragoturkey as the first prize had us laughing, it only got better from there. A combination of charming Dofus characters with the bleak commercialism of the source material was also an amusing juxtaposition.

JJtheBest & Team: The Avengers
Judges' Comments: Great use of the Sadida sprite and just enough CGI (read: shoopin') to really sell the Hulk without going overboard - like the movie! Perhaps JJ's last name is "Abrams"?

Slowianin & Rior: 300
Judges' Comments: Might have been a bit obvious, but the completely brilliant and unorthodox use of the /mark emote won us over in the end.

Nurto-is-Michael-Iop & Team: Lion King
Judges' Comments: Lots of attention to detail on this one, the judges particularly liked that most of the major characters from the movie were present, including a Leopardo as Timone.

Enueuna: Casablanca
Judges' Comments: Great filmography, and clearly the Flagship Company Agent is enjoying being in the shot.

And our 10 runners-up (again, in no particular order)

Wolvenwind: Howl's Moving Castle
Judges' Comments: An epic scene featuring two old ladies - perfect Enutrof casting. The Peki pet was a delicious detail that was not overlooked! Bravo!

Fecanab & Team: Fight Club
Judges' Comments: This one was close to the top five, but everyone knows there are no girls in Fight Club. Also, they were disappointed that no one thought to cast a (shirtless) male Sacrier as Tyler Durden in that iconic scene. Still, a good effort and more than worthy of recognition.

LordGreyDragon: Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Judges' Comments: Several nice details on this one: the Royal Gobbal Helmet on the Sram "playing" King Arthur was a good touch. Extra points for using such a deeply geeky movie.

Ladies-Man & Team: Transformers
Judges' Comments: Perfectly-colored Dragoturkeys standing in for Transformers! We were delighted. Next we'd like to see a recreation of Michael Bay's frenetic, jumbled action sequences!

Frunupulax: Lord of the Rings
Judges' Comments: Great use of the Brakmar setting for your movie scenery! Most of the major characters clearly identifiable from only their colors too, great work!

Billiebird: Scarface
Judges' Comments: Another excellent use of Dofus areas to recreate an iconic movie moment, bravo!

Awraeh & fgbnyu: Titanic
Judges' Comments: Recreation and commentary in one screenshot, deep!

Clarkymark: Saw
Judges' Comments: A truly disturbing and appropriate use of the Sacrier Temple.

Thattroll & team: Forrest Gump
Judges' Comments: This one wins the award for best recreation of a movie involving a mentally challenged man inserted into major events of history.

Honorable Mentions

ekois: Clerks
Judges' Comments: Some might say that it's pretty easy to recreate the king of all low-budget indy films, but we think Randal would approve.

ElecAquaFire: Alice in Wonderland
Judges' Comments: Great "casting" and great set, we just wish it was a little bigger so we could have seen it better!

ShortFries / stacylicious: Wizard of Oz
Judges' Comments: Wow, that's a LOT of gold...

Sawaar: V for Vendetta
Judges' Comments: Wow... that's a LOT of bombs...

MafiaMamo: Night of the Living Dead (?)
Judges' Comments: This one appeared to be more of a zombie movie-style send up rather than a strict re-creation of a specific film, but Iop jokes are always appreciated.

Thank you all for your awesome recreations, and my humble apologizes for making you wait so long. All the winners will soon find the prizes available on their accounts (with a little something extra to apologize for the delay).

This is the memorable scene from the classic family musical, "The Wizard Of Oz" starring Dorathy the Feca, Scarecrow the Masqueraider,
Tin-Man the Pandawa and Cowardly-Lion the Sadida going down the Yellow Brick Road in search of the Wizard of Oz.

"There's no place like Shika... there's no place like Shika... there's no place like Shika!." - Dorathy
