Thanks to knightshadow for being a wonderful partner this past year. Thanks for your patience with my spazzing and my inability to pick up the phone at times. Thanks for all your creativity with desecrations decorations.

Thanks to hereticsaint for being the foundation on which this event stands. Thanks for the brand new sashes... conveniently available when I couldnt find my other one. Your ability to see into my future amazes me. Your calm reasoning is amazing. You are an angel.

Thanks to shadowmite for being the *other* pillar in the foundation of the event. Your organizational skills and ability to keep track of the herd of cats is astounding. Y aknow, if *you* didnt keep track of the history of this pageant so well, I dont think anyone would be able to see how far we've come. Your faith and determination can outshine the best of em.

Thanks to the judges: icarusfell, theflittermouse girlgoth monsignor and smilingmonster8 You guys are the backbone of this event. Its your discernment that we count on.

Thanks to djeternaldarkness for providing yet another FLAWLESS set. You are a fabulous DJ... and your choices for the suicide dance songs were inspired

Thanks to bordelloofdolls for being our gracious hostess for the evening. You are a beautiful lady and a fine performer!

Thanks to the contestants. You guys understand that it can be fun to dress up and goof off with the rest of us....I hope every last one of you had as much fun as I do. If anyone can point me to their LJ's I will surely add them here.... Let me see if I can list them... blacklove_ and hellgeist and arcitennoir and generalchaos and the_forlorner ..... Im missing some guys...

Thanks to intrepid_reason for doing a fine job in leading my not-coordinated-for-waltzing-at-that-moment arse. It was all me. I know it. I was having a bad time at things. LOL.

AND for taking 2 Camera full of pics!!!!! cant wait to see!!

The Gothic Pageant this time around:
Here, I will recap the night's events for all you who couldnt be there....

Erik and Jen are presented as the reigning Mr & Ms Gothic Seattle

(All photos taken by the lovely intrepid_reason unless she's in em, of course... then someone else took em, such as m_cobweb or buffywillowgrrl or dizzy88.. I was too busy prancing around yelling "off with their heads" or something....)

Weeks before the pageant, each contestant is asked to fill out a questionaire that the judges read as we all prepare to start the show. This is the first thing they will be scored on...

( Now... on with the show )
