We have three permanent judges and three rotating judges this cycle, with a mix of new faces and ENTM veterans! The permanent judges will be judging and scoring each week, while the rotating judges will be popping in and out, for a maximum of two weeks during each of the six week cycle.
Your Three Permanent Judges
Resident Judge Odharnait “Ona” Greene: “Ever walked down a street and had the sun sparkle through the trees. Dappling on your face with twinkles of warmth and hope? Yeah, that’s not Ona. Ona is a hyperactive, chaotic goblin bard who eats too many cheese sticks and drinks Monster like it’s her job.
Hailing from Goblin, Ona is a regular on the ENTM scene. She has never won a cycle, but just like a celebrity was given this honorary title of S-Rank.
She enjoys teaching others how to Gpose and will judge you (obviously referencing cookies while she does it). A song or a poem is Ona’s usual critique style, but occasionally she drinks too much or smokes too much and you get the most unhinged critique.
Irl Ona is a Regional Manager for disability services, a soccer coach, a mom, and exhausted. She is taking her motorcycle test in September and enjoys taking photos for friends and family in her spare time. Ona loves you all!”
(Katarh’s note: Ona forgets she was crowned Monthly Challenge Winner one year, which netted her an S-Rank title.)
Judge Penny Snowflake: Penny is new to judging, but not new to ENTM. She agreed to help out with judging so some of our other veteran judges can hang back as participants for this cycle. She most recently participated in Classic Cycle 13 and she is from Light server.
“Hey Penny, long-time player of FF14! Play time just passed 10,107 hours. I mostly do Gposes for the last 3 years. My last big achievement was getting both Beata and Saint of the Firmament. I look forward to seeing how everyone does in this competition and seeing different skills, ideas, and hearts in the photo.”
Judge Juzelle Apohrae: Juzelle is new to ENTM entirely and will give us a fresh perspective (because we do tend to be very naval-gazey here in ENTM.) She attended art school for industrial design and has a keen eye for both fashion and decoration. Juzelle is from Lamia server.
Your Three Rotating Judges
Two more veteran S-rank participants joined us, and one new face for the judging staff!
Judge Malkovich Malkovich: Malkovichis a previous S-rank winner of our Doubles Cycle along with Neisha Rayne, and 1st runner up of our All Stars Cycle a few years ago. He has been a judge for us many times before, and has graciously agreed to be a rotating judge for Scenic Cycle 4. Malkovich is from Faerie server.
Judge Rymmrael Bhaldraelwyn: In her own words: “1st Runner Up Classic Cycle 10, 1st Runner Up Classic Cycle 12, Winner Runway Cycle 2, The Ghost That Haunts ENTM Discord.” Rymm has been with ENTM for many years, and has also agreed to step in as a rotating judge during this cycle. Rymm is from Lamia server.
Judge Chaton Grincheux: Chat is joining us for the first time as a rotating judge! She’s an avid Gposer and loves photography. (She is also the nicest scholar any warrior could ever want in their raid static.) Chaton is from Lamia server, where she co-leads the Silk free company.
Your Hostess
Webmaster Katarh Mest: Katarh returns for another fun cycle of serious photography using a video game engine! Competing since Forum (Classic) Cycle 5, Winner of Runway Cycle 1, and either judging or hosting for nearly every cycle in between, Katarh took over ENTM along with Kai Ulric in 2018 after our beloved founder Rongi Pongi had to step aside to focus on his real life fashion career. (We totally understand and we still miss you Rongi!) Katarh is from Lamia server and is the FC leader of Spin the Ascian.
