    Well, the Wild Card round had a smaller turnout than expected, but it got the job done.

    Congratulations to Jaitne, Ad Infinitum was a success! You will be joining the others for Round 3!!

    KitKat, your picture Stalkers made me laugh. Also it made me look over my shoulder.

    Thanks to the both of you for playing along.

    -----

    Round 3

    Here are the remaining participants, in alphabetical order:

    Bagandscalpel
    Buffalobiian
    Jaitne
    oyabin
    Psyke
    Ryllharu
    Saman
    Shinta|hikari

    8 Participants left in the second to last round. Everyone has just been sent a PM informing them of their item.

    Submissions are (tentatively) due Monday, September 15th. That gives you all of this week plus the weekend to get your submissions in.

    Rules are of course the same. Submissions will again remain anonymous during the voting. However, I feel as if there are few enough participants remaining to allow everyone to vote for their own submission this round if they'd like. So have at it!

    Questions, etc. in this thread or PM'd to me. Good luck.

    I hope that date is not correct or I had better get really busy, really fast, and wonder why my PM came so late.

    Also, how many brackets are this round, four of 2, or two of 4?

    I apologize for the lateness of the PMs. I only just sent them out because I had a busy day today and not much internet time. Similarly, Assassin's internet usage is limited, so the planning stages were a little slower.

    I'm not against extending the deadline by a few days if everyone really wants it.

    I'm referring to the fact that the PM was recieved Monday 09-08-2008 06:01 PM, that you posted only 10 minutes ago, and the date above says they are due tonight.

    Aside from that, I think a week is plenty enough time.

    Hahaha, shit shit shit. Sorry about that!!

    Edited for clarification. Yeah, the submissions are due one week from today. Thanks Ryllharu.

    Oh yes, and there are 2 groups of 4 in Round 3.

    I came up with both of this round's topics. Honestly, if I were competing I think I'd prefer to get the one you were assigned. Not that one is any harder than the other, I just think I'd have much more fun with yours.

    I've pondered over a few toilet breaks and still can't come up with a decent idea.

    All i can say is, think outside the box (have i said that already?). You dont have to take a picture of object we assigned....a metaphor or something along those lines works just as well (or even better). For example, Animeniax's idea for the wild card round (stepping on an ant hill). It represents the subject witout physically displaying it.

    We'd all rather see something like that then a simple picture of the assigned objects.

    Ooh.. there goes my idea.

    How many people are being kicked out of this round? 4? 2 from each bracket?

    That's correct. This round will eliminate half of the remaining people, and the next round (the final round) will decide the winner.

    I believe that was me who said it last round.

    Just sent my entry in. Not my fave of the entries I've submitted so far, but it will have to suffice.

    Basically before Tuesday morning, because that's when I'll be putting up the polls.

    And yes, resubmissions are totally fine. If you want to send in a "rough draft" now and then replace it by tomorrow or something then that's cool.

    We're just missing one person's submission, but he's completely reliable, so I'm not worried at all.

    Looking good guys!
