First and foremost - You may only enter your own photography, though that rule *almost* goes without saying. One entry per day, per person. If you are unable to upload every day, we understand that this is not reality and real life comes first, but please have your photos uploaded by the specified time after each round. Usually two days are given after the ten days so those that need to catch up may before judging commences. New rounds either begin after winners are announced or when there are a sufficient number of participants to compete. (This number left up to the host per circumstances that appeal to each round.) No manipulation At this point in time, I am also excluding you from putting borders around your images >_< *Nazi pixie* Simply because sometimes putting a border on a picture can really add something, and not all entrants will do that. NOTE: Black & White photos are now allowed, however no other photo manipulations are allowed. A new rule! Be sure to notice that from now on every contestant should add the date the photo has been taken in their own photowiki. That rule is to encourage to take the photo after the theme is posted instead of posting an old photo. In general we only allow new pictures, but if you have no ideas or time for taking the new photo and you have a perfect old one for the theme, you can have one or two old photos out of ten. If you add an old photo, you should post the real date, and we will allow it, but we will consider the date when voting for the winners. There is now no size limit...Just please keep them at a reasonable size for viewing >_< (One of the judges was grumbling about not being able to appreciate the pictures in their full size xD) The theme *must* be followed, but you may allow yourself to be as creative and as sneaky with that as you like :D For example: The theme might be 'orange'. You could take photos of something orange, or an orange...but not a duck sitting on the water! :D Unless it was an orange duck... It was such a huge job for me to do everyone's separate wikis the first time - so, can you put your pictures into your personal '10 Days' wiki (when it is made) when you change your photos over please ^_^ Yes, you are allowed to participate multiple times ;p 2006-09-10 [Sunrose]: I put my name in the new round, but realising that 10 others have already signed to the waiting list. Do any of them want to enter the upcoming contest? :)
2006-09-10 [Elmiira]: gee.. :S well we did not have an exam.. we just took different kind of photos using different styles and methods and then in the end of the course the teacher glanced through all the works we wanted to show her, and she gave the marks..
2006-09-10 [sequeena_rae]: Split over two days of course, with 6 weeks to prepare :P
2006-09-10 [Lothuriel]: I was a bit confused about that [Sunrose] We all signed up for the next round then the new sign up was opened. Unless I was in such a hurry that I signed the wrong list.
2006-09-10 [Elmiira]: but still. :D it's somehow freaky. or then it's just the fact that we don't have any exams like this.
2006-09-10 [Sunrose]: Well, there is a waiting list where people can show they have plans to enter a new round. When the old contest ends, the new contestantslis
Problem is that random people passing by tend to sign that new list, before the waiters do/can. Also because no one is sure whether the waiting members want to enter right away..
2006-09-10 [sequeena_rae]: I'd say it's a first come first served kind of thing, but you're right, it could be a little unfair on those who've put their name down on the waiting list. Oh well, there's always other rounds aren't there?
2006-09-10 [Sunrose]: Yea, but those on the waiting list came first..didn't they? ;)
2006-09-10 [sequeena_rae]: This is true x)
But then again, they're not here now and there are still spaces :P
2006-09-10 [Sunrose]: Yea, but it seems to be confusing for people. They for instance meant to sign the contestantlist
2006-09-10 [sequeena_rae]: Maybe =/
Perhaps there should be another list 'wants to but may not be able to'?
2006-09-10 [Sunrose]: Well, maybe next time the waiters should be moved to the contestant section. Then they should be asked to put a * behind their names within 3 days or so (to mark that they will enter). Those who didn't or can't enter at that moment will be moved back to the waitinglist, leaving blank spaces for the first come first servers :P
2006-09-10 [Lothuriel]: So I should remove my name from the bottom list then and put it on the top, right?
2006-09-10 [Sunrose]: Yes :)
2006-09-10 [sequeena_rae]: Oh well, that makes sense :P *steals sunnys logic* x)
2006-09-10 [Sunrose]: Otherwise the waiting list has no purpose :P
2006-09-10 [sequeena_rae]: True xD
2006-09-10 [Elmiira]: yes you should. But I was not confused. I just am not allowed to enter this round because I already won the prewious one.
2006-09-10 [shotokan_gal]: There's others in the waiting list who have to be there since they can't compete in two competitions in a row too. Maybe it's more of something to gauge general interest in the comp? There's one or two names there which I don't think have entered any at all.
2006-09-11 [VeraAda]: Deary me, you lot talk heaps! Well, write... :Þ
2006-09-20 [BinaryPhoenix]: Whenz the next round startin'? ^_^
2006-09-20 [VeraAda]: Hopefully not tooooo soooon, cos i have a busy term right now, but it ends in a bit more than a week. So let's pleeease make it in more than a week, cos then i'll have time! :D
2006-09-20 [Doodle of Cydonia]: Yay! Same! Plus, I need to buy batteries for my lame-ass, battery-guzzli
2006-09-20 [VeraAda]: Crazy coconut.
2006-09-20 [Doodle of Cydonia]: I CAN'T HEAR YOU, I'M IN A TROLLEY!
2006-09-20 [VeraAda]: sandwich - Muggle;
2006-09-20 [Doodle of Cydonia]: I in day. didn't, somewhat. Blowjob.
2006-09-20 [VeraAda]: ometimes.
2006-09-20 [Fire Panther]: Well my personal issues have been dealt with, my camera has been replaced, and I am ready to go again :)
2006-09-20 [Linderel]: Then you should put your name on the list for the next round. ^_^
2006-09-21 [VeraAda]: Or for this round! There's still one free spot :P
2006-09-21 [Linderel]: Well, that's what I meant. :P
2006-09-21 [VeraAda]: Oh ok :)
2006-09-21 [Fire Panther]: There, I'm in :) I can't wait, this'll be the first round I've actually been able to take new pics for!
2006-09-21 [Doodle of Cydonia]: Yaaaaaaaaay!
2006-09-23 [VeraAda]: Woot! But again, let's give it a week before we start... cos then i'll be on holiday!
2006-09-24 [pixish]: ohhh omg :o 10 entrants :o
2006-09-24 [pixish]: ummm how about it starts on the... 28ths of September, 10am Elftown time :) k! ok!
2006-09-24 [Fire Panther]: works for me :)
2006-09-24 [VeraAda]: Sounds goooood :)
2006-09-24 [Doodle of Cydonia]: w00t! Excellent. =D *ish excited*
2006-09-24 [Faery]: good for me!
2006-09-24 [VeraAda]: *Nervous*
2006-10-05 [pixish]: I'm not going to be able to put up one on Saturday...I won't be home. Does anyone who is not participating in this round want to put one up on that day?
2006-10-05 [iippo]: I can. :) Do you want to tell me before which one you want to use, or would I actually have to use my malfunctioning independent decision making algorithms? o.o;
2006-10-05 [pixish]: You may use those big words which I think mean independant thoughts? :)
2006-10-05 [iippo]: Okay, but you forfeit your right to spank me afterwards if I make the wrong choice :P
2006-10-05 [VeraAda]: Woo this should be interesting :P
2006-10-05 [pixish]: hmmmm well, ok, I'll hold off on iippo spankings ;p
I'm sure you will be fine xD
2006-10-05 [VeraAda]: Hehe, yes so am i :)
2006-10-05 [Doodle of Cydonia]: SPANKING! WOO! >.>
2006-10-06 [VeraAda]: XD
2006-10-16 [Linderel]: *ponder ponder* I wonder if I should participate in the next round again...
2006-10-16 [Faery]: I certainly would like to! Especially since the last one was so bizarre and had so few entries... I'd like to do one with the whole set of contestants!
2006-10-16 [Lothuriel]: When is the deadline for this round anyhow?
2006-10-16 [Faery]: Well, the judging isn't finished for round 6, so...
2006-10-16 [Linderel]: Round 6 is over already, we're just waiting on the judging.
2006-10-16 [Lothuriel]: OH...I didn't know. I had not finished submitting my entries until yesterday. I had left a comment in my entry wiki but, never recieved a response.
2006-10-16 [Linderel]: I think pixie'll still count your entries. :)
2006-10-16 [Lothuriel]: I hope so... ^__^
2006-10-16 [VeraAda]: I can't wait >.<
2006-10-17 [BinaryPhoenix]: I hope she'll count mine as well, but if she doesn't it's ok ^_^
2006-10-17 [VeraAda]: I think she will :)
2006-10-29 [Doodle of Cydonia]: Woooooooo! Well done to the winners, esp. Ocean Soul. ^-^ *applauds mentally*
2006-10-29 [VeraAda]: Well done Ocean! :D
2006-10-29 [Ocean Soul]: :3 thanks everyone and congratulation
2006-10-29 [VeraAda]: Woo, *pokes you*
2006-10-29 [Ocean Soul]: *twitch* O.ô
2006-10-29 [Lothuriel]: If we participated in the last round, we have to sit out the current one correct?
2006-10-29 [Linderel]: Aye, 'tis so.
2006-10-29 [Lothuriel]: Ok, just making sure. This was a lot of fun!!
2006-10-30 [VeraAda]: I'm going for round 8 >.<
2006-10-30 [Doodle of Cydonia]: Ditto.
2006-10-30 [Linderel]: It seems that I'll be taking over, at least for this round... :o
2006-10-30 [VeraAda]: Hehe :)
2006-10-31 [Madzeri]: we should make it a poll vote, that way its more...public :D
2006-10-31 [Ocean Soul]: I disagree.. public votes usually turn out to be very popularity influenced :/
2006-10-31 [Madzeri]: well, maybe we could elect a couple of judges.
2006-10-31 [Ocean Soul]: I don't know, I liked pixie's system with non-Elftowners voting a lot :3 On the other hand I would of course volunteer to be a judge :P That'd be fun as well.. but I still think the very secret voting is the best <3
2006-10-31 [Madzeri]: its not only that though, its a lot of work to put upon one person, and it generally takes along time to finish judging as well! i think we should have volunteer judges- changing every contest. and it would also be fun to be a judge, and give other people a go at it :)
2006-10-31 [Ocean Soul]: Eventhough I think it'd be fun, I still like the way it was until now a lot. Yes, it's probably a lot of work for one person, but it was also pixie's idea, so I guess she kind of thought about this before and then decided to do it like this ;)
2006-10-31 [VeraAda]: Judging IS very difficult.
2006-10-31 [Ocean Soul]: Eh well, nobody said differently I think ;)
2006-10-31 [VeraAda]: I had nothing else to say :P
2006-10-31 [Linderel]: I think that pixie's idea was good, and I'll do it that way as well... Nudge some non-ET people to help me with the judging.
Unless you're telling me you don't want me to take over, which would be a hassle, since I already agreed with pixie. :P
2006-10-31 [VeraAda]: Blergh... i don't mind at all :P
2006-11-01 [Madzeri]: haha nah, its fine- you take over! i was just saying it could be an idea, possibly for the next round.
2006-11-01 [Linderel]: We can draw straws and the loser has to host? :P
2006-11-01 [VeraAda]: Ha, sounds interesting. Why isn't pixie doing it any more? O.O
2006-11-01 [Linderel]: She's too busy with her life and stuffs.
2006-11-01 [VeraAda]: Ooooh i seee :)
2006-11-01 [Lothuriel]: I like the fact that outsiders are voting, no bias that way. I try to do the same with many of my contest.
2006-11-01 [Linderel]: It is lucky I do not have a life, so I can be on ET all I want. xP
2006-11-01 [Lothuriel]: If it makes you feel better, I have no social life....unless you count playing on the swings.
2006-11-02 [Doodle of Cydonia]: Playing on swings is so fun, though! ^-^ Nothing like feeling five again.
2006-11-02 [VeraAda]: I love swings ^^
2006-11-02 [Faery]: Isn't it a bit against logit that some names are both on the contestant's list and the waiting list? ;P
2006-11-02 [VeraAda]: I think some people either forgot to delete their name from the waiting list, or they don't know the rules and want to be in 2 rounds in a row :Þ
2006-11-02 [VeraAda]: OR or or or... they want to be in round 9 :) In which case they should specify that.
2006-11-06 [ArchangelGabriel]: Can i add my name to the list for this round? Also, what time is the new theme put up?
2006-11-06 [Ocean Soul]: Yes you can and should sign up for this round ;) And I guess the theme is going to be put up as soon as there are 10 contestants :)
2006-11-07 [VeraAda]: Myessss...
2006-11-09 [~Lady Morgana~]: Sorry, I had to take myself out of the list because I'll have my first block of school starting on monday (for 3 weeks, also sleeping at school), I'll be back on the weekends but I don't think I'll be able to catch up, so hopefully next time *^.^*
2006-11-12 [Elmiira]: I had to take myself away from the list cause.. well it's a long story but my camera ended up swimming in a bag full of milk. and it's obviously broken. My precious camera.. *sob* It did cost like 450 euros and it wasn't even a year old yet.. :(
2006-11-12 [Linderel]: :O Noes! :/
2006-11-13 [VeraAda]: Oh dear! That's crap! How did end up in MILK? Aw... you two were 2 of my 3 favourite photographers in this comp, with solitary comfort as the 3rd.... :( where did he go anyway?
2006-11-13 [Skydancer]: Very sorry to hear of your loses, I hope you are able to replace it. You might consider having it looked at though. Sometimes they can be cleaned if the electronics has not been fried.
2006-11-13 [VeraAda]: Yeah, that's true *nods*
2006-11-13 [ArchangelGabriel]: Do you think it will take long to find the necessary 4 people?
2006-11-13 [VeraAda]: It might, yeah... it has before O.o
2006-11-13 [Elmiira]: Well I'm going to see if the insurance company will pay me anything of it and so.. then I'll se what I do then.. but I won't have a camera to use for a while anyway. And the story then, well it's a stupid thing really but anyway.. I put a milk tin (or what ever, anyway it's made of paperboard or something like that.. dunno the words)in my bag, with all the stuff.. I wanted to take it when I was going to visit my parents.. and it opened in the pack and obviously everything was in milk after that
2006-11-13 [VeraAda]: O.O that sucks! Good luck though :)
2006-11-13 [Skydancer]: Not that it will help now, but just as a suggestion for the future. When I put my digicam in my pack or I am carrying it around in my bag, I put it in a ziplock type sealable bag. Even though it is in a little padded belt case, it helps keep debris and moisture off the cam since I sometimes buy food or such on the way home and sometimes it is frozen or cold so would sweat on the camera if I did not put it in the sealed bag. Just a thought.
spirits bless,
2006-11-13 [Elmiira]: yeah.. that's a good idea.. :) I'll buy a bag like that for my next camera then..
2006-11-14 [VeraAda]: Yeah sounds pretty good...
2006-11-29 [someelf]: Ohh.. Now I can rejoin again -gasps soft-
2006-11-29 [VeraAda]: O.o
2006-11-29 [someelf]: -Was gone for a long time- ;_;
2006-11-29 [VeraAda]: Oh, ok :)
2006-11-29 [someelf]: I was gone for three whole months plus the one and a half month being stuck in a fight with my parents so it makes around 5 months I was gone ^^'
2006-11-29 [VeraAda]: Oh no! Is it all better now?
2006-11-29 [someelf]: ^^ Yeah. My dad had to go into a nursery home but he's allright now. Even though getting a new job doesn't really work at the moment. But I am now living with my fiance so it's not really my problem 
But yeah! I am ready to be back in cation 
2006-11-29 [VeraAda]: Woah, lots of stuff happened! Glad it's all good now ^^
2006-11-29 [someelf]: *Nods* Me too :3
2006-11-30 [VeraAda]: :D
2006-11-30 [someelf]: *does a dance*

2006-12-11 [VeraAda]: Yeeeeeeeeeeeee
2006-12-12 [someelf]: :O! -hides under the couch- nope :3
2006-12-18 [VeraAda]: When's the next round starting?
2006-12-18 [Linderel]: Well, let's see. I can either kickstart it with the current participants in a couple of days, or we can wait until after New Year's. Opinions?
2006-12-18 [xerya]: I vote for a start on 16.1.2007 or little after that, otherwise I'll have to withdraw from the next round as I'm going on a trip :)
2006-12-18 [Linderel]: Or you could drop out and sign up for the round after that, depending on what other people think. And besides, even if we did start only after New Year's, but before you got back, you could still catch up, depending on when we started.
Anyways, note taken. Anyone else have anything to say about this?
2006-12-18 [xerya]: Yup, if others want to start earlier I'll just wait for the next one. In fact I'll remove myself from the participants for now, let's see what the situation is when I come back.
2006-12-18 [Linderel]: Aaaa, cheapskate! D:
2006-12-18 [xerya]: Niu? I thought it would be clearer that way, the competition can start without me, and I'll participate if I come back in time?
2006-12-18 [Linderel]: Ehh, whatever. xD It's just that the participant list looks very sad.
2006-12-18 [Elmiira]: yay. :) I have a new camera now. ^^
2006-12-18 [Linderel]: Yaaaaay! \o/ Any opinions on when the new round should be started?
2006-12-18 [Elmiira]: I wish it would start after christmas.. I guess everyone has busy time before christmas.. and new year.. maybe as a start for next year it would be great. :)
2006-12-19 [someelf]: Yush I just found out I still need to finish a drawing before christmas and need to send out lots of cards and X_X -dies- ^^;;
2006-12-19 [Ocean Soul]: *joins in teh dying* yarr.. too much to do in too little time -.-
2006-12-19 [someelf]: -nodnod- And all these wiki's keep on popping up X_x And I just noticed I forgot something at home >__< Gah! -runs and tries to catch the bus-
2006-12-19 [Ocean Soul]: I'm too freaking lazy as well though >> Might be part of the whole time problem I have going on here.. yarghhh
2006-12-19 [someelf]: Eep! -does the stuff for ya- XD
2006-12-19 [Ocean Soul]: Aaahh I got a christmas elfy doing my work *dreams* :D
2006-12-19 [someelf]: -rofl- XD
2006-12-19 [Ocean Soul]: =D
I really need to get going.. gah gah gah.. why is leaving always such an issue :P
2006-12-19 [someelf]: Because ET is addicting and there's always something new to see and talk, rant or hop about XD
2006-12-19 [Ocean Soul]: Exactly.. but you know what.. in a few hours I got 80% of the stuff done, that I have to get done before christmas :D Harrr, go me! :D
2006-12-19 [someelf]: Oooh me too! :D I bought pretty stuff for friends and family, and ate nacho cheese <3 -hyperhyper- and managed to send 2 out of 4 letters, and writing the third and now I might even have my packadges! :D At the post office <3 -purrs-
2006-12-19 [Ocean Soul]: :D I got all the presents I wanted, except for the one for a friend (which will be easy to get though).. and.. hah so much other stuff, I'm really proud and in such a good mood now :3
2006-12-19 [someelf]: I can't figure out what to write XD
Oooooh -tackles and slobbers-!

2007-01-07 [Linderel]: *drops dead* I'll kickstart it, uhm, sometime next week. That okay with everyone? <_<;;
2007-01-07 [Elmiira]: okay for me ^^
2007-01-08 [someelf]: Okie for me too :) got all the time of the world with my fiance going to school v.v
2007-01-08 [BinaryPhoenix]: Can I add my name in space 13? I see it's empty....
2007-01-08 [Elmiira]: if you want to reserve a place from the contest round that starts this week, you should put your name on the upper list. If you want to inform people that you will probably join some contest, that is held after the next one, the 13. place is all yours. :)
2007-01-10 [Linderel]: Okay then... I'll put everything up tonight, and the contest will start either tomorrow or Friday - how's that sound?
2007-01-10 [someelf]: Sounds good to me :D
2007-01-10 [BinaryPhoenix]: Yay!!!!!!!! ^_^
2007-01-10 [Linderel]: All set. :3 *twiddles thumbs* It'd be nice to get a full contest, though. :P
