Before I start, and with all due respect to monkeytwig and UntExp, metalic and anfa are OUT?!?! HOLY SCHNIKIES!

Okay now that I got that outta my system... same as before:

1. Best match-up (i.e. the match-up that you had the hardest time deciding on)
Carcarlo v. Krank. The 1 vote difference attests to this. Close behind would be UntExp v. anfa.

2. Funniest chop in round 2
Right now I'm leaning to blurker's KFC parody with DLowrie's slingshotter in a close 2nd and 3rd to buglover's fat bird.

3. Best theme/story in a round 2 chop
DLowrie's slingshot hitman. Reminds me of my misspent youth.

4. Best overall chop in round 2
theburningcrotch's Viking. Especially after seeing the externals.

5. Biggest surprise for round 2 (i.e. upset win, someone "raising their game", etc.)
Again, nothing but respect to monkeytwig, but metalic is legend. Well done monkeytwig!

I can't wait for round #3!

One word for this round.... FANTASTIC.... Well done everyone & Good Luck to everyone going on to R3!!

I made it through to the next round

Best matchup: Footfungas vs Tawiskaro
Funniest Chop: Krank's Crow disguise
Best Theme: Stevster
Best of Show: vokaris
Best Loser: Rockyjob
Biggest Surprise: I was yacking it up in chat before the round opened up for voting. I wasn't going to give any clues to what I did, so I was just joking when I repeatedly said that I had created a Pink Crowmingo. My entry had nothing to do with a flamingo. But to my shock, when the contest opened for voting, Stevster had turned the crow into an Alice in Wonderland Croquet stick, which as I recall from a Disney movie, was a flamingo (Alice had a pink one, I think the queen's was green). It was the only thing that resembled a pink flamingo in the entire round, and I had said I was going to do a crowmingo in chat. Stevster assured me that it was a crazy coincidence.

Best matchup: Dannyboyuk and Buglover
Funniest Chop: buglover fat bird
Best Theme: my Avatar? jk,
Best of Show: UntExp!!!!
Biggest Surprise: a lot of nice and pro works here!
and i really amazed with untexp's work he got a chance to
get crown. so beware people. Go Go the Unexpected UntExp!

why is everyone surprised with UntExp... the guy's tiger kicked ass last year... it was expected he pulled quite a few impressive chops this year...

1. Best match-up (i.e. the match-up that you had the hardest time deciding on)
Kinetic_be vs Supak0ma. I wish they both went through to Round 3...but I agree with the winning chop

2. Funniest chop in round 2
buglover's fat bird and DLowrie's slingshot one

3. Best theme/story in a round 2 chop
I think ill have to go with Krank's chicken-crow disguise to avoid being dinner story.

4. Best overall chop in round 2
I cant pick one so I'll pick my top 5!! In no particular order...

Vokaris's armoured crow
Supak0ma's horror-theme
Rockyjob's grim reaper crow
Sliver's 'concept-art-like' chop...how did he do it?
Burning Couch's viking

5. Biggest surprise for round 2 (i.e. upset win, someone "raising their game", etc.)
Rockyjob lost!!!! As did Anfa!!!! WOW. Im not surprised I lost hahaha

BWAHAHAHAHA!
That's a very good point Flabio. I just figured anfa would dominate is all (hence the all due respect bit).

.... wait he was against Anfa

That's what I said.

WTF?
