Yaay 
It's been quite tough - I mean spending so much time drawing to make it in time.But it is a rather enjoyable work, so I don't mind I decided to do a chapter more than the minimum requirements, and I am planning to finish it by the weekend!
I am curious who the winners will be, I have some tips ^^
I am creating my very first comic and I am happy people are reading it and leaving comments and so on. So my experience with the contest is positive! Although all that downvoting is.... Do people really believe it will change something? I don't really care much, but find it really funny if some people obsess about downvoting competition like that 
What are your thought, since you're asking?
We made the requirements a couple of weeks ago so everything else is a bonus. We've got one more episode we want to put out though. It's been tough though! We're really looking forward to taking a bit slower after its all over.
We made the minimum requirement but hardly any inroads with new subscribers. I think most of our readers are loyal fans but hardly anyone new has discovered our work.
That’s a bit of a bummer tho. Yet, I’m looking forward to see who makes it into the new round, even if it won’t be us for sure 
This contest is like a race to the top. when we use your own feet to run, a few lucky ones are riding in LW's private limousine. I don't know about you but a lot of artists have already giving up because of this.
Anyway, Good Luck to all of you who's still enduring til the end.
I decided to give up on the contest because my comic is in the most feels. It's obvious who will take the first spot and I can also predict who will be second. I completely regret wasting my whole summer for a contest that wasn't worth it.
Personally I am not going to give up, even if it is hard work, takes a looot of time and the chances of winning are nearly non-existent (but that was clear from the start, so...) I would just regret not trying. I think to push-through, one must enjoy the work, and I do. The contest also gave me the push to start creating the story I wanted to maybe start drawing one day
Aaaand... the winner is never clear! (: Although I admit, some entries in particular seem very likely to win....
I still find it unclear how the points for audience engagement are going to be distributed, though, and what stuff in particular are they going to look at. But no matter who wins, I am sure they put a lot of work into their comic and win fair and square. I am really curious. I would, of course, also wish to win, but... I am trying my best to stay optimistic if it doesn't happen (haha :D). Good luck to you all, guys!
Made the requirements! Through this contest I ended up publishing my first webcomic ever, so it's been quite a ride. Lol that downvoting at the beginning dou...
I agree that lowkey, the winners of the contest are pretty much cemented (not that I had high hopes in the first place haha!) so I'm more excited to see what happens once the contest ends and the webtoon environment is a bit more 'natural' and 'normal'; quick question for the veterans, how different is the webtoon environment during the contest vs. during normal operative conditions?
Hmm 1 episode to go, but will try and make 2 in before the deadline!
I so far have 2 prolouge episodes (only one makes the requirement)
and two episodes.
My experience is so far positive. I got downvoted into oblivion first week, but i've steadily regained a positive rating. It's hard to say really. 4 episodes is not well enough to judge by i think.
I think I made the minimum requirements, I really wanted to upload more but life have been cruel.
My experience? well, it helped me not to lose my mind. Where I live is hell right now lol.
@soxu @Emevsa
Good luck wish you the best!
@Nachi
At the beggining I was downvoted too (who not? xD), well I've even got downvoted because I missed two updates ;_;
I really hope webtoon see all entries regarding of popular and not popular.
@bear1
It's so difficult to get discovered. people have to be updating every week and is not easy.
@Dani
I really don't know who these winners are. But even with everything I wanted not to give up. And really helped me to develop fast drawing and coloring skills. So your efforts are not wasted. I bet you got some new skills in your practice.
I'm sorry to hear that, I hope things will get better 
At the beginning? I am getting downvoted still... Not terribly much, but at least twice last week. I don't really care, though. Just don't understand why anyone things it will help anything
About the popular things... I think being first popularity-wise doesn't mean victory. Even getting promoted a lot may not. I think webtoon wouldn't simply take the two most popular series and let them win, that would probably look strange, too, since 60% should be on the judges. And it probably is so for a reason. I really am just curious how the judging will go. Since it is probably not stated anywhere how the popularity will be judged, theoretically they can do basically anything with it.
That moment when you thought a popular author gave up on the contest( which a false romance disguised as a comedy entry for the sake of drawing a lot less of panels) because he just published two episodes until now months ago, suddenly he gets promoted on recomended titles and then decided to upload more chapters in the last week probably due to Webtoon's indirect "advice". Pretty Line-ish, yeah.
i woke up this morning to see my comic on the recommended list xD it was a really nice unexpected surprise. I still need to release one more ep to meet the minimum requirement, luckily it's already 50% T_T. hoping to get it out a few days before the contest ends.
@CarolRiverArt Awwww thanks! I don't think we're in with much of a chance but it's nice to know that we have at least achieved the goal of qualifying. It's been hard work but I feel like it's been worth it.
I'm happy I tried out the contest, it was challenging but helped me get past a lot of doubts about what i am able to do. Made one additional episode on top of the required minimum. But i had started out not quite sure i'd even make it halfway. It's been a worthwhile experience all in all. Good luck everyone!
@momojiji The fact you made it past the minimum requirements is a great achievement. Congratulations!
