    Talking Cakes!!

    Quick question: Do you really want a big, burly, mostly naked guy on your wedding cake?

    Other than that, sounds like a sweet idea, and congratulations.

    edit: and why does this forum keep trying to double post me?
  2. I think getting 3 votes "per household" is pretty fair, and this is coming from someone who has made two votes in many of the rounds that I've voted in (as my wife and I share an account, and didn't always agree on which one we thought was the best).

    Also, what's your decision on Scooter's Fiancee's vote this time around, for those of us keeping score at home?

    Also also, did you get the spreadsheet I sent? Or did you already have another method to keep track of the votes?
  3. Since we get 3 choices, my wife and I are collaborating on our choices this time around.

    1st: JohnnyKat
    2nd: Clutch
    3rd: Bubbawheat

    (If I wasn't worried about getting eliminated, I would have voted for ScooterTwo for 3rd)

    Lots of really great pieces, even with 3 choices it was tough to pick. JohnnyKat's been my favorite ever since I saw it though, I just love the pose and the style. Clutch is just plain a great piece of work altogether. And Scooter's is a fun pose and another step up from his previous works.
  4. Also wanted to mention that it would be nice to have some sort of consistency for forum names/DA names. I know it's more important to look at the piece as just a piece, but on a couple of them I'm confused as to who they are from. (eg. Happy Dan/Battlewraith are DA names, but Toxic Shia and Lousy Day are forum names) Even though I think I figured it out myself just by process of elimination (Happy Dan is Bindweed, right? And I know Battlewraith is FrozenDeath) Unless of course, you've gone by what the artists have said are their preferred names.

    edit: also, I'm not sure how you were planning on tallying the votes, but I can write up a macro for you in OpenOffice (which can save in Excel format I believe) to tally up the points and even sort out which place everyone is in (I used it when I ran the AE Player's Choice Awards using the same voting system)
  5. How about an AE arc?

    Hey, it's visual!

    And by the way, Love love LOVE this month's theme. Hopefully I'm not duking it out with Caemgen for last place this month. Though I think I will do something for this whether or not I get ousted.

    Or for something less robot and more hot. Wyndine.




    And of course, there's always several Burnt Matchsticks to choose from - newly sig-linked.

  10. hadn't gotten to this one yet from the first Aeon challenge, but hope to soon. Congrats Flame Kitten aka Coulomb.
  11. I always liked this shot.



    And I had the same idea as M_B

    Quote:
    *A time travel arc where every mission chronologically comes before the one you just did. The gag of the arc would essentially be that all the things you keep going back to "Fix" are being caused by the NEXT thing you go and "Fix". The intention was that the player would figure this out long before the contact did.
    Glazius did something fairly close to this with his arc "Backwards Day" #don't remember.
  13. That's why when I started these before, I made it more general (any specific CoX related word) and allowed for skipping Q, X, Y, and Z.
  14. This has been my prediction for a while, and I'll restate it again. With the new hero/vigilante/rogue/villain functionality, they're going to *have* to revamp the team search window. And with that, will hopefully come with bonus functions that we all want (at the very least icons and filters for: team leaders, teammates on full teams, teams looking for more)
  15. Ok, it's worth a shot. This is what I came up with.

    If I am a winner, I permit NC Interactive, Inc. and NCsoft Europe Limited to use my name, likeness, photograph, hometown, and any comments that I may make about myself or this contest that I provide for advertising and promotional activities. I also certify that I am at least 13 years of age and am eligible to participate in this contest.

  16. I think I figured out the trick, but I'm one word short. (and it's apparently past the deadline, but still)
  17. L is for the Lascivious Lickings of the Luscious Lich Lording over the Last of his Legion.


  18. just got to know what to search for.
  19. 1st: @LaserJesus Drakule vs The Werewolf Bikers from Hell #340316

    2nd: @FredrikSvanberg Fear And Loathing On Striga #350522

    Very very very tough choice here. I really enjoyed all the arcs in this category. They're all very well done, well written, and well played. Good luck to all!

    You know, I kind of wish I would have tracked how many plays the unknown authors had at the start, so I could track how much publicity this contest actually gave them.
  20. Been delayed by running the arcs from the Player's choice contest, but wanted to bring this back to the front page and mention that I will take some requests for reviews on the second challenge. Though I won't guarantee playing it before the deadline.
  21. Aha, this is where I saw that name before. I was surprised when I got a comment on Whack a Mole. Thanks for playing, I'm glad you enjoyed them.
  22. Well, I'm pretty new to actually posting content on DA, so I only have half a dozen favs and less comments. I've wondered about posting a thank you, but haven't yet. If anything, I would at most maybe leave a note.
  23. A Bubbawheat approves of this update. Would love to see another arc by Sister Flame in the near future
