To enter or not to enter

Bioware is having a Mass Effect costume contest. I actually am planning a Mass Effect cosplay this year and was thinking of showing it off first at Nan Desu Kan in September. I just might speed up my efforts to enter this contest...not quite sure though.

I'm not much of a contest person, I just don't really care enough to get people to vote for me etc etc. There was a girl gamer contest a month or two ago that a lot of girls I knew were involved in, but really it seemed like a total bore. I don't need a contest to be cool.

I won't tell you what character I'm cosplaying quite yet, but I'll give you a hint by saying I'll probably have to go from a redhead to a brunette to play her.
