The NYCC 14: Battle of the Cosplayers Finals are over and the winners have been announced here!
New York Comic Con 2014 is easily the biggest convention we have attend this year; by a gigantic margin! That means things will be a little different for this massive con! We are excited to announce four starting polls, one for each day of the convention. Each day will have a semi-finals poll running for one week. At the end of the week, we will group the top half of cosplayers from each poll into the finals to see the winners of New York Comic Con 2014!
While we do our best to correctly label all of our Cosplayers, we sometimes get it wrong or simply just don’t know. We’re sorry! You can help us though! If you see a mislabeled Cosplayer or a tag that says “Unknown”, please let us know in the comments so we can correct it.
You the readers get to choose who had the best costume of the show. It goes by picture, some are solo, some are a team. If you see yourself, vote for yourself, that’s not cheating; really its fine. If you want your friends to throw a vote your way, they can too so tell them to vote! Spamming the vote box with multiple votes for yourself or favorite in one day is a no-no, though; death lasers will engage. Everyone is allowed to vote once per day (every 24 hours).
The top three winners will get featured on our homepage and be used as our feature image when we announce the winners, forever immortalizing them on our site. As a new added bonus, the cosplayer with the highest vote percentage for their respective semi-finals will be used as our featured image for that semi-final poll.
Comments are welcome at the bottom of the post, just be nice and fair to everyone. So get ready, prepare to be cosplay amazed, and vote in the poll at the bottom after the pretty pics!
The voting period for Friday’s semi-finals is one week from today, so the poll for this semi-finals ends October 17th 11:59 PM EST!
We are excited to announce our brand new Community message boards! What this means is that we have a brand new place where you can discuss the costumes from the convention specifically on our Cosplay forum. Feel free to discuss any and all cosplay from any convention. If you happened to be at the convention cosplaying, feel free to post any images there to show off more pics of your costume or its creation. When commenting be respectful and nice, or those nasty death lasers will get you.
Great pics! As a note: the last picture is of Luci from The Wicked and the Divine on the right, but that’s Hannah from Rat Queens on the left!
EeBee, thank you! Both have been fixed for correct character names.
Unknown #2 is Kyogre! So cute!
Sara, thank you! The tag has been corrected.
Hello, I was wondering what happens if someone suspects that a couple of people are cheating the polls right now? I’ve been monitoring the voting behavior of both the Ramona Flowers and Falco contestants and it feels like both of them are exploiting the voting/poll system? (i.e. someone is voting more than once to boost one another up)
Dasaret, we always do our best to watch for and investigate any possible cheating on the poll. If we do find anyone was able to circumvent the limits in place, the duplicate votes will be deleted.
I can submit picture evidence if need be. I just feel like it’s unfair to the contest if we have people out there up-voting themselves repeatedly in order to win.
