Welcome to the first annual (that I'm aware of) METANET PUMPKIN CARVING CONTEST WOOOOOO!
With Halloween only two weeks away, it's time to bust out the 'ol pumpkins for a good carvin'. So here's the deal: This is the sign-up thread, and if we get enough people to join in for a good competition we'll be on our way.
- It does NOT have to be N related!
- Pictures must be submitted by PM AND PM ONLY to ME.
- One entry per person!
- I don't particularly care what format the pictures are, but keep the file size down (If your photo is disgustingly large I will not take the time to rescale it myself and it will be discarded)
- You must write your user name on a piece of paper and include it in the picture so we know it's real
- Don't submit anything that violates the rules of the forums
- You have until OCTOBER 31st at MIDNIGHT, PST to submit entries
- Voting will take place in the Community Projects forum starting November 1st, whenever I get my ass out of bed and in front of the computer.
- The winner gets something (if you'd like to contribute a prize PM me and we'll talk)
- If you have any suggestions feel free to bitch at me in the comments below
AND GO

In order to cut down on cheating, it would be a good idea to have to include your forum username on a piece of paper in the picture.

Why couldn't we just post them in this thread?

I guess I'll take a /slice/ at it.
I crack myself up. But seriously if I can get a hold of a pumpkin I'll carve it and send you a picture.

Why is there an apostrophe after "punkin"? The word ends in an n. This may seem trivial but it has been bothering me.

Oh, wait, you meant "Pumpkin"? Shit, I thought we were going to go around stabbing homeless and leaving their corpses in Frankie Muniz' car with hidden cameras where their eyes used to be.

I have a carved pumpkin and camera but I did such a poor job that I'm too ashamed to take a picture. Sorry.

I'll be providing a 24 hour extension on the deadline if anyone has a pumpkin they want to put in. Otherwise flag wins.

I spent Halloween itself doing homework.oeuvre wrote:On a separate note, how was everyone's Halloween? I spent it doing errands, homework, and getting a flu shot.
The previous two days, I partied.
