/Seriously, do any of the women on this forum ever go out in the sun?! 😉

I think my Mom’s side is Swedish, and my Dad’s is Danish/Scotch-Irish, so in a word…NO 😛

Congrats on making the paper Els – great photo and nice write-up 😀

Picking themes itself isn’t too difficult. I try to make sure we haven’t done anything like it in at least a few weeks, and then I try to rotate in the mass appeal ones with specialized ones so it…Read more

99 contests out of 105? good god, woman!!!!

maybe 90 is closer counting the ‘got nothings’ where i missed the contest but updated the site afterwards. only the FSM knows for sure but it’s up there. you have to be close to that yourself ‘bort :P…Read more

It’s not a money thing and I’m sorry if I gave that impression at all. I’m just kind of burned out at the moment – lots of demands on my personal time and I feel guilty that I’m not giving the site the love it deserves. My posts have dropped off, and…Read more

with of course the added difficulty: No animals or self portraits in mirrors.

Adding this to the description in the boobies.

“top” being highest vote getters or “top” be personal favorites?

your favorite three – vote getters or personal favorites. will clarify in teh boobies.

Anyway, I promise to not be a doodiehead next time 🙂

You weren’t a doodiehead this time IMO. Like others have alluded to and said before me, farktography (hell, photography) is such a subjective art form. That and mix the FARK crowd in and you never know what the outcome will be.

Your interpretation was perfectly fine from my perspective.…Read more

but seriously folks, why does it matter when it’s “called”? the FSM will have the totals at some point and if we have to wait a day or two to post the winning photos ……… ok we wait. how many page hits does our winners page get? i’d bet my lunch money that most folks look at the fark “view votes” thing, not our page. our page is real nice and…

yeah, i think if we wanted to archive it immediately after you call it we’d have to set it up all special-like with drew and the admins.

i wonder how much Heineken that would cost… 😛

see, i prefer the fission method. one farktographer enters, two leave.

i’m good either way – whether we want to call it at the official farktog call time or just let the chips fall where they may once the voting is done….i wonder if there is a way to archive the thread ~24 hours after the start via fark so there would be no more voting after…

I’d say that the FSM is the main arbiter of who gets the ultimate victory.

Actually this brings up a good point. A long time ago (I’d have to look up the thread) there was a mod discussion about when the contests should be called and a winner declared. We settled on 24 hours from when the contest hit the front page. That’s when I check the thread…Read more

If I remembered how to do it right you should all be able to see it, and posters as we give them access.

i’m still not available for posting – i get off work at 5 straight up and since i can’t post from work i’d either have to leave early (fat chance) or start the thread when i got home whenever after 5. which is why i’m thankful to ‘bort…Read more

that said i heart you guys too and hope this Vegas thing turns into a reality. can’t even imagine the level of debauchery…Read more

Do any of you play Texas Hold-em? I’ve only ever played online, and only for fake money, but I frigging love it. I do really well in the small tournaments, but it’s probably much easier when you don’t have to listen to all the smacktalk.

I do a little bit but my poker face sucks and I hate the staredown/smacktalk part so I play mostly online, but…Read more

I just ran hi-liter pens through my calendar and as far as I can tell the first weekend works out just fine.:)

Yay! *happy dance*

I vote against bumping contests (unless we’re bumping in a stapler contest, I’m not made of stone).

conversely, to be different, we could do a 101 theme…

Also, the next Chicago fark party is pulling in a lot of out-of-towners this time, if I could pressure some of you to attend. We get drunker than any other city. I’ll bar hop with you until…

veruca, re your 2007-02-21 09:38:40 PM: You upgraded to Vista already? +1 vote (unrelated to the Vista upgrade) and -1 geek point for you!*

* I myself am not a geek

A few of us at work went in together and purchased a business package for Vista which included licenses for Office ’07, Vista Business, and a bunch of other toys. So when I…Read more

Oh, and my connection was out for two whole days! Two of them, in a row. It was a nightmare. I missed everything.

How did you live? 😯 Srsly.

Damn, schnee, you’re good.

Btw, is your first pic tonight Mrs. Schnee and 3.0? *sigh* almost makes me want another. Almost…

Definitely an eye catcher. Makes my ovaries hurt 😛

I think we could bump the themes w/o being graceless. This really is a special circumstance and would serve the good of the fark-community as a whole instead of scheduling for a particular individual. We probably can’t do next week (since Comfort is already going and pointing to next-week’s-theme), but the week after, sure.

It is a community…

I really appreciate your posting those pics for me on the 7th! I owe ya one!

That was me GoDeep, and you are quite welcome. Also you might want to contact schnee so he can assign proper credit to you in the FSM. Your shots were really lovely 🙂
