Well, this is going to be a little tricky... again
We have Halloween on the 31st, and then November 5th is Guy Fawkes Night.
Not much time to really get the contest going but we will give it a whirl anyway.
You must post in this thread in order for your avatar to be counted.
Once you submit your avatar to the contest, it cannot be changed, so please pick wisely!

For now, just post your avatar in the thread - do not change your avatar as it will also be changed in the Halloween Contest, and we don't want that to happen.

November 4th (12:01am) - submissions close and voting begins
November 5th - winner is announced!


So Yep! This is the contest.
Don't know who Guy Fawkes is?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy_Fawkes




*Avatars will be added to the poll once Halloween is over! ;)

I will start it off then!
I'm in!

should be real interesting in Ole Blighty this year... the firefighters on going on strike that day.

I may put a "Little House on the Prairie" pic because my Acting for Camera Teacher was born on Guy Fawkes Day...perhaps a Father Murphy pic or even a Loopy de Loop pic since Loopy de Loop had his cartoon debut on Guy Fawkes Day and I didn't put a pic for his 50th Anniversary! :\'(

I know.

I'm just playing on words since Fawkes and Fox sounds similar.

Besides...there's a webpage for Guy Fox.

Well, since it'd be poor form to use a similar image (man, those weremay or may not have been the days), I'll go with plan B, and crop something appropriate out of a T-shirt...

...for the, umm, usual reasons. :)

Not sure if this is Guy Fawks or Zorro, but o well

mine must be too evil to enter.

No.
You never said in any of your previous posts that you were entering so that is why you weren't there.
Now, since you have suggested that I wasn't entering you - I know you want to be in.

Easy Peasy

sometimes I don't  always make myself 100% clear.  Something for me to work on.

Perhaps it wasn't you that was unclear... my original post in this thread might have been a little too vague.
Although with every avatar contest, I normally type that in order to enter, you have to post in the thread submitting your avatar.
Your first post in this thread doesn't have the avatar in it - so that's probably why I didn't think you were involved. ;)

yeah I didn't have it in the thread and didn't say earlier that I was going to enter either.  I didn't say I was entering then.  you would have had to assume.

I put the date on them out further than necessary just to make sure that the winners aren't out before I get a chance to declare who they are!
Once I do, I expire the poll and it unlocks the vote counts for everyone to see. ;)

Thank y'all for your support, and remember, if you don't have a Guy Fawkes mask, you can always make one in origami... for the lulz. :)

(Because anyone who actually makes one is a guaranteed winner next year!)

Well congratulations to everyone (esp Foo!  :))

And thanks for the votes.  :D

well, those were songs I couldn't find lyrics anywhere on the web, so they were kind of hard to know in the first place.  curse my esoteric taste in pop

the other thread I have to get going on that again.  I'd probably do it today, but I have a bunch of songs I need to review.

thanks for everyone who participated in the avatar contests... I did finally get around to putting the awards into the profiles.
