I was thinking the same thing.

I mean mine isn't the best, http://imgur.com/a/j8UEG#vHVqD

AMEN! you can tell some of the winners used fondant. i think they need to re read there own rules they created they said to use GINGERBREAD!

I honestly would prefer to vote for some of the ones put up here, much nicer looking than the ones we can vote for :/

wow I wonder if they even looked at your amazing piece! 2 thumbs up!

Well time to go get me another penta see yall later =]

When I 1st saw your submission I thought it was one of the best ones. I honestly think they didn't include ANY of the ones submitted on the 3rd.

Same here. There are some entries that look like they took 15 mins to make and there's no originality to them, just cookies and icing. I created a story, staged a scene from it, and my entry was about 95% gingerbread. Even the characters made out of fondant were made with graham crackers and gingerbread as a base cause my fondant recipe was gooey (I definitely suck at making fondant xD). Mine took me over 3 days to complete, and I wish I would of had more time since I didn't have time during the holidays. Everything was made from scratch except for the candies, the graham crackers, and the pretzels.

Btw <3 the giant fizz ^_^

This was my submission. Comes with a story. Hope you guys like it

Title: The Twitch Stole Christmas

Description: For weeks Twitch has been watching Poppy on and off the Fields of Justice without her knowing. His feelings for her have been growing as he watches her valor and beauty. A few days before Christmas Twitch went to Poppy's house to tell her about his feelings. When he got there he saw Taric through the window, so he stealthily walked around a bit listening. He heard Taric revealing to her his own feelings and he gave her a present. The present was a mallet of the highest quality and Poppy said "This can do some real damage on the fields, especially to that stinky rat Twitch". Infuriated from hearing this, Twitch set off to steal her Christmas and make her feel his pain. The next night he went to Poppy's house to execute his revenge. He looked through one of the windows and he could see that Poppy was sound asleep in her room. So he went ahead and broke the living-room's window, shooting it with his crossbow many times, and sneaked in. "Oh ho ho yes yes..." He was amazed at the sight of all of presents under her nicely decorated tree and just wanted to open them all, so he did. After happily opening, playing, and breaking some presents, Twitch takes all of the presents and candy. But he does leave something for Poppy, a big mess to clean-up in the morning!

Materials:
Gingerbread, Graham crackers, royal icing, fondant, food coloring, M&Ms, cherry chips, Teddy Graham, candy canes, pretzels, powdered sugar, chocolate-mint hard candies, and sugar glass.

Like many others already pointed out, I am extremely disappointed at the contest results. I feel that some of us placed A LOT more effort than simply baking a cookie and smothering it with icing and fondant. Some of the entries look like they took zero to no effort.

Did Riot even look or receive all of the entries? I feel woobox is unreliable and didn't accept all of the entries. We sent a support ticket just to make sure our entry was received and our support specialist didn't even have access to confirm.

Riot's contests should be renamed to best fondant creations because they can't even follow their own judging criteria.

tl;dr Fondant op. Where the Gingerbread?!?

Anyway, here was my girlfriend's and my entry for the contest.

Um, why are the WINNERS up for voting? :-/

I agree with this. They already won, put some well deserving other honorable mentions in for heavens sake.

Thanks Pinka ^_^ I enjoyed yours as well
