I don't know, I liked a lot of the Pico Day submissions, most of them where pritty good, with a handful of not so many good ones. Obviously some people had been working on them for a while and others not.

Thats true, I noticed some look like they were thrown together at the last minute but others appeared to have been worked on for ages!

My personal favorite was the one by Stamper and Johnny Utah, it was almost perfect in my opinion. :)

Yeah, the was a pretty wide range of quality in yesterdays submissions.

My personal favorite was the one by Stamper and Johnny Utah, it was almost perfect in my opinion. :)

I really liked reblammed, even if it was submitted a day early. And i loved the pico roulette by Tom. I just like to be able to play something which is against other Ng users.

I loved that game, it was my favorite game submitted for Pico Day. The idea was very original in pitting NG user against one another, I hope to play some people from here in it one of these days!

Well it sounds like everybodys had a good time blamming and protecting. I am a little dissappointed i wouldnt of been able to do it because of my internet but its no biggie. Im gonna look forward to the next comp; and hopefully ill be able to enter that. Oh and I had an idea, I thought I might make a logo fitting into our sigs of NGDD and having speicial pictures for each one of them, for example, portal dept. could have some of the b/p badges on it. This is only gonna be for me but ill post the picture on this topic for anybody to use.

That's too bad, but there will be a lot more contests to come. I'm sad about Phantom refusing to make anymore contests. He was very organised indeed. Oh well, at least Wylo is still at it.

Sure, you can try to make something and I can edit it if there's a way. It sounds like a decent idea but I'm not sure about people wearing these sigs. Speaking of which, it's time for me to switch sigs.

I didnt mean they had to. its just their own free will wearing it because the original idea was for myself (the original idea was 15 mns ago...) but once my version is done im gonna wear it myself and post the pic on forum if anybody else wants to wear it or edit it.

I would have entered, but I don't like B/Ping, I just find it boring, I only really do it when I need to deposit. But even then I might just check out the front page.

Like the collab I submited, that was started at 7pm and submited at 9:30pm, two people droped out, but yeah. Still, only did it to say it was pico day, not for money or anything else. Also for fun, lol :P

My personal favorite was the one by Stamper and Johnny Utah, it was almost perfect in my opinion. :)

Yes, that was a good one, too bad it didn't finish in the daily top five :(

On another note, I've just written 6000 words in one day and thus, compleated my final peice of courswork. In one day :D

Same. Maybe we can coordinate a day and time to both be on. That way, I can kick your ass. Even though it's more a game of chance than of skill.

I had a 3 hour nap at 6pm NG time, I probably slipped up there. But I reviewed to cover it.
I have been busy with work recently but it is the holidays now, so this was well timed for me :)

Maybe next time.

Yeah I didn't know that you had to actually join to be counted in competitions. I thought it was automatic to be included in competitions if you were a member. I barely caught the post to join it in time.

That's about my normal pace as I hit about 80+% of the movies daily. My wife helps of course.

Impressive paces by deslona, DLJ, and I-Love-Caitlyn. The rest of you will have to work harder if you want to catch me! :P

5 credits to pwroftheseagoat

What do I do with these credits? Bragging rights? Or do they have some other value?

Fun competition guys we'll have to do it again sometime.

It's way too much work, all I have to say about making more competitions is fuck it. On the bright side, Wylo sent me out a well deserved shipment of stickers because of prolonged service in the NGDD.

I've have been playing around with my aura. I was originally light but then changed to neutral. I don't like dark as there are just too many dark lvl nines. I might just have to flip a coin a pick one.

Meh, it's pretty good. Not one of your best, but it's still pretty good. It also kept stopping on me because of the lack of a preloader.

Well, I see that everyone liked my first contest. Next one, if it's going to be around at all, is Lock Day, which is on the 27th of may. I haven't seen much of the Lock Legion recently so that's why I'm wondering if there's going to be a Lock Day at all. Guess we'll have to see.
