The reserving my place posts are just a way for post count obsessed people to get another tally without having anything to even enter. XD

Why in god's name would you ever need to reserve your place in a SoTW? I mean, sure you can enter a placeholder to sit and look pretty while you actually work on something else, but reservations? Just think of SoTW as a tacky restaurant, somehow having a reservation makes you seem even more tacky.

What is even worse than a having a placeholder in a SoTW thread is when the person posts their entry, they make a new comment. So they are left with a reserved spot in one place, and their entry in another...

Comic Tragedy May 25th, 2009 4:33 AM

Oooh! Kuggles is fiesty, taking a direct jab at someone. XD

But really your right. Its really easy to just edit your first post, but It's not my place to get all prosecution-like. But I do like getting frustrated (points to my previous post)

I mean what is the point of a placeholder? To hold your place.
Why hold your place if you are going to take another place anyways?
Not feisty, just tired...

There shouldn't be this many reserved spots in this week's SotW. When I first checked out the thread, I thought that there really sixteen entries on the first day. Then, I see about five to six placeholders.

Guys, you don't need to reserve a spot. Whatever order you go by, your work is still going to be included in the voting process.

There should be a rule stating that if your going to post in the thread you better have an image or atleast an idea in the post. I like seeing new tags in these threads, but all I see is "Reserved spot please. Thanks". Makes me want to pull my hair out.

Comic Tragedy May 25th, 2009 10:38 AM

I don't think a rule is needed really. I mean, it should be intuitive that reserving a spot is not needed, because to put it simply, there are no spots being filled. Whenever I see a reservation post I always wonder if they think there is a cap to the amount of entrants there can be, then I remember those oh so special numbers opposite to our usernames.

I'm just wandering... can anyone do the SOTW? I mean, do you you have to have a gallery/shop? Or do you have to have been in SOTW previously?

Anyone can can enter a SOTW as long as their graphic fits the theme, but only the previous winner of the last SOTW can decide the theme.

And to add on to this, whoever decides the theme for a SOTW cannot enter in that SOTW.

AtomicoExploda May 30th, 2009 4:03 PM

Oh okay then. Thanks! ^^
I'll probably enter this one.

Loki June 1st, 2009 10:38 AM

Oooh, I really like Elysium's entry this week. :O

THIRTY-SIX June 1st, 2009 10:42 AM

I might change it. It's a placeholder until I get time. Although I should be focusing on a project I have started. xD

Also what's up with 'graphic designers' and numbers?

So gay statistics only made cherii's stand out more. ._.'

...I already deleted mine..

And, I'm going to agree with Loki, and say that Elysium's looks pretty good, even though it's a place holder.

THIRTY-SIX June 3rd, 2009 12:23 PM

That wasn't my intention. Also it may not be a placeholder.

Gummy June 3rd, 2009 1:33 PM

I'm a little surprised in myself that I actually entered. I think it was a good attempt.

ruby June 4th, 2009 11:50 AM

HFI's vote was removed?

I guess it doesn't affect the vote any more, but in previous incidents they were disqualified.

THIRTY-SIX June 9th, 2009 1:33 PM

It's been over a week and voting hasn't gone up. Dx

Zebra Thunderhead June 9th, 2009 2:05 PM

Not my fault. I always put the two up together and the person who won hasn't PMed me back. So don't blame me.

Azonic June 10th, 2009 1:45 PM

We need a back-up plan. Dx

Loki June 10th, 2009 3:11 PM

AKA pick a random theme CME. xDDD
Anything.
Elephants, saturation, balloons, failure, hippopotamus, whatever. xD

Dukey June 10th, 2009 3:14 PM

Make the theme, Japan, that'd have good entries, and you know it XD

ruby June 10th, 2009 3:18 PM

Not having a theme didn't stop me when I was hosting it. :|

Zebra Thunderhead June 10th, 2009 3:20 PM

Well excuse me for wanting to give the person a chance to come up with their own theme, so freakin sue me.

Loki June 10th, 2009 3:23 PM

Nobody's blaming you CME. D:
If they don't PM you back in time once you're ready to make the new thread, go ahead and just pick something.
It's their own fault they missed it.
