Thanks

I still think Karen has more wins than me, or we have the same number of wins now. I have six.

And speaking of which, where is Aaron these days?

I'm sure it's okay for you to host Rosey, if we're gonna discuss who's gonn host much longer there will be no time to submit the entries

He's gone AWOL, at least from this section lol I thought karen had 8, you had 7 and I had 6? I don't know aaron was the one who kept count, he just couldn't handke us all beating him!

[Eli]

Hm, I think I only have six... I have won with entries of Dan, and apple (non-H&A), Dalby, Jade, Rocco and Sally&Pippa. Have I forgot one?

No, I really think I have six...

[flutterby]

Looks like your are right oops lol got a bit ahead of myself there! x

AWOL? I'm here.

How about trying to spell handle correctly next time eh?

And i'd appreciate it if my name was spelt with a capital A.

Hopefully the new one is up soon.

So apparently it was only me who counted? Well looks like you three like counting and competing from what i started.

[Eli]

Yeah, you got so full of yourself we needed to count when you stopped entering just so we could come back and throw it in your face when you eventually (ergo now) came crawling back.

And you mentioned SPAG, here's something for you:

1. There's supposed to be a comma between "next time" and "eh"

2. First person singular form is with a capital letter. "I", not "i".

Okay, so we can all pick each other's posts apart isn't this fun. By the way, that actually wasn't sarcastic.

You think you're so cool with all your little phrases for example ergo now .

I think it's kind of funny that people like me and Jess [sevenpuddings] who are more frequent LJer's now don't seem to do as well as the others on here now. I don't know what it is but just something i've noticed.

I've came back with a new attitude now.

Let's face it not many people on this board will vote for me if they know it's mine. Why? Because i was being myself and people don't like the person i am on here. Tough Luck.

Maybe it has to do with the consistent comp entrants and people liking the same thing every time! I mean for me there's only so many times a coloured spot with text attached to a black and white/colour icon or the same font "Century Gothic" can be used on nearly every entry. But it seems like these avatar comps have a formula. What i just said. Because people vote for the same style EVERY single time.

To me, winning on the same style 5 times isn't really 5 wins it's one. Okay, so people like that style. Do you have the guts to try out a new style? No, because you want the numbers of wins to increase. And they have for you three.

So my mission is to make every entry different cropping, colouring etc different style. For me i will be content if i can look at two contests i enter over the next two weeks and see two really different entries rather than two winning entries that look more or less same with the exception of a different picture.

I'm no longer into winning. You can have your little tallies but don't include me. If the only reason you counted was to rub it in my face well then you're lucky i came back aren't you! I think i've said my peace, gave my opinion so there really is nothing more to say.

[flutterby]

It's piece Aaron not peace lol you make me chuckle I've missed you

Don't go dragging me into this. This is the first comp I've entered in forever, and it was coz I wanted Karena to have as many entires as possible.

Theres no need to get tetchy about the same style winning. Its a good formula, and props to the person who created it. For something that started out (as a joke from what I read) you seem to be getting quite hostile, and thats not a nice attitude to have, especially when you're including my name in your post.

~Rosey~ I so love this topic. Question, which will inevitably give away what I'm going to enter, but do the icons have to be of ships that have been on the show, or can they be ships that you've created in your own wild imagination? (I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE THATS DONE THIS NOW!! THANK YOU SLASH!)
