Will using two separate shades of one color incur a penalty? e.g. Orange 1, Purple 1, and Yellow 1 and 2 would technically be 4 colors.

If you mean darker yellow and brighter yellow then no. You can use that.

in case people missed it, there was a halloween event hosted on facebook only a few days ago, just with cars...

these are the winners:


I mean, there were not many people participating, but first and third place are low-effort AF.
obviously everyones taste is different but come on, a neon green mikro with just some blood splatter?...

I don't know who picks winners on designs, but can we maybe make this a community vote with anonymous participants (so the participants can be anonymous if they want to, just in case some people don't want to upvote cuz "it's that person" even though they like the outfit)

so we'd have to send screenshots in some kind of inbox and they'll get posted somewhere for the community to see and vote.

The Facebook event had very few participants (it was also only 3 days) and those 3 cars were best out of 5. The vote will be done internally.

well, apart from the 3 winners I found atleast 5 other submissions in the comments, even 6 if you count the last one in (even though it only has 1 word related to something sp00ky... "apocalypse")

Quick update, it was already added to the original thread but I'll repeat the information.

true, the above the last link I've sent was actually too late, but I checked and the others were still in the time frame. ohwell...
but yea, sorry for going offtopic.

on-topic though:
I'd still prefer community votes for these kind of events (atleast some times)... I like voting for things
also,
we really don't have to use all 3 colours, so a pure purple outfit is fine? (going for very dark purple mainly, with some lighter tones ontop)

Community votes usually tend to vote for friends, but I will see what can be done in the future!

And yes you can have pure purple, with different purple shades (it has to look like purple though).

Can you give everybody a free 7-day Prem for this event so that everybody has an equal chance for this contest? (Let's be real, you have no chance of winning with the base limit of customization)

Support them and purchase some premium!

But even if I did, it wouldn't change the fact that this event is pretty much exclusively only for paying players.

It would help the population count if everyone had an equal shot in this event.

Hair and normal skin color are fine. (Updated the reply) 

[Snubnose 640]

@Lixil are we allowed to submit multiple outfits? (I feel like making another one)

Got it. Then are Makeup color (Eyeshadow, Blusher, Lipstick and Tattoos) also fine?

[Kewlin 692]

Just so you know, a lot of people would consider the 3D glasses worth more than all of the 1st place prizes combined. . . so you might want to add that to first place.

[Shiemy 4]

@Lixil can you tell us or give feedback to the Shop Desinger that we want the Freaking Wings in the SHOP  Please? ^^

[Clandestine 390]

Awesome. I'll give it a try just for fun.

[Jazeker 1082]

Pretty cool contest btw

 

1st price is awesome but ye pls add the 3d glasses from 2nd / 3rd place to 1st place  ....  those are part of like the 'legendaries' in apb kek lel

 

 

[Szambi 85]

Restricted to 3 colors? Without premium, no thanks.

What, were you expecting fairness in a contest?

 

But no seriously, he points out a pretty glaring issue with this contest. Free players can't hope to hold even the slightest chance in this, and they're the ones that the rewards would actually matter for.

[Healt 67]

no premium? lol

[TheMessiah 430]

Damn im bad designer.Can we get some G1C all participants?Even if is just 20-30..like 30 G1C,30 JT and 3 hours premium 

[heysie 47]

I am a premium player, but I was expecting a free 3day premium code for everyone upfront... we havn't had one of these in a long time. 

 

little reminder black and white are no colors

[Inquitoria 108]

I'm assuming black is not allowed then? Can I have detail decals in different color, ie. brown dirt, red bloodsplatter or white bones, as long as the main colors are as listed?

 

Can I use very dark purple as black, or is that not allowed? Sorry for being pedantic but the rules are confusing.

[SecondMoon 208]

I've got a few questions:

 

1. Can we participate with more than 1 entry?

 

2. Are we allowed to use tattoos?

 

3. Are we allowed to use black, white and grey to support our outfits?

 

4. Are we allowed to use blood?

[Ketog 1031]

does tatoos on our face/body also have to be removed if they aren't those colors ?

and if we can keep them , what if they are part of the costume ?

 

i've talked to a friend and that part is kinda in a grey area

 

because if we can't keep them , that means players have to remove all their tatoos to participate ?.

 

and what about outlines ? , some people use black outlines to make stuff look better , but that should also make them instantly disqualified right ?

 

 

 

don't want to restrict myself from using black , then the judges take a winner that used black ...

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also can't you give like ,  premium for the duration of the contest ? , seems a bit unfair that premium players will have a huge adventage over this .
