Just for fun DESK contest!

Post by Dizzy1 » Sun Jan 27, 2008 2:05 am

Hi everyone! :D

We had so much fun with the eyeball contest, we thought it would be fun to do another one about Who's Desk! Where do you play Wonderland? Do you sit at a desk, on the sofa with a laptop, or do you sit on the floor with your computer on a little cardboard box? :P Wherever you are, when you are playing or talking in Wonderland, we want to know (we're nosy nutters)! :lol: It'll be a blast to try and guess who sits where! :shock: (I have no clue) :lol: EDIT: We've decided each of you should also PM me a short clue about yourself, or some type of hint, but don't give away too much. It can be a riddle, a motto, a silly saying, or just something you eat, or like to do, etc. The hint will also be numbered and placed by your desk picture. Please send me something that will help everyone out just a little, because this desk thing might become too difficult if there's no clue and all the desks look the same. Thanks! :D

Just take a digital picture of your desk and send it to me via PM or if it's full, send to email address: emmyran@aol.com I will take off the names and replace them with a number. Don't worry, I'll write down who's is who's desk. :wink: Then I'll send them to Robyn and she will post them just like the eyeballs contest.

Please send the pictures to me via P.M. or email: emmyran@aol.com by Jan. 29th, this coming Tuesday at 6:07 P.M. EDIT: NOTICE! THE DEADLINE HAS BEEN EXTENDED UNTIL FURTHER DECISIONS ARE MADE, I WILL POST IT HERE A.S.I.K. (as soon as I know) and I'll do my thang and get this party started! :D

Ofcourse I'll submit my desk in the contest, but will not be guessing.

Robyn will handle the rest of the contest. Take your picture and send it to me, hurry up now, don't be late. :wink: :D Oh and please do have fun with this sillyness; that's what it's all about. :D :lol

Dizzy, I'd love to participate but I'm afraid I won't be able to meet your deadline, I have other obligations coming up. I'll have to sit this one out. :cry:

Hey Dizz - should we leave a bit of a clue on our desktops? :D Like in my case a football or Keeks could leave a corn dog? :lol: :lol: :lol: Seriously though - it will be quite hard to guess without a teeny cluee won't it? :roll: :)

Thanks for organising this - should be a laugh and a half :mrgreen:

LOL Lillie, now that would be FUNNEEEEEEEEEEEE, to have a teensy clue in the pics. I'll leave that up to all of you.

For anyone having trouble PM-ing a picture, just send it to my email address: emmyran@aol.com I've cleaned out my inbox, but the email address might still be a better idea. I'm not a Computer Tech, like Robyn. :D

THANKS for the idea! :D :D

I'll get a pic to you tomorrow. I need to move something that would give it away to easy. I did think about leaving a clue or everyone could come up with a little saying, something about them but not actually giving anything away. A bit of cryptic message.

Right, right! A subtle, little clue. Like mine could be: I have pink eyes and am quite disoriented most of the time! :shock: Don't thnk anyone would guess it! :D

You betcha baby! :D

What about next Sunday then; by 6:07 P.M. or 7:01 P.M. ?!

I'VE GOT IT!!!!!
I'll not set a deadline for now because Laura is going to be busy this week too. I'll wait for Laura and Robyn to give me the "OK" to "Go ahead, or Carry on!"

It's Official then! :D I'm changing it in the original posting.

How about just part of the week for me. Lets say I could officially release the website on Thursday and we could guess through the weekend next weekend?

Putting an actual time is kinda silly since everyone is in a different time zone.

Would that work for the rest of ya?

And the winner is................. :D :lol:

If anyone sends a desk picture to me via my email address, please let me know so I don't delete it from my spam folder. I check it every day, but if you have a strange screen name I might be offended and delete it anyway! :lol:

So if you don't mind, just let me know. Please and Thank you. :D

Dear Everyone, :lol:

Regarding this Desk Contest, we've decided each of you should also PM me a short clue about yourself, or some type of hint, but don't give away too much.

It can be a riddle, a motto, a silly saying, or just something you eat, or like to do, etc.

The hint will also be numbered and placed by your desk picture. Please send me something that will help everyone out just a little, because this desk thing might become too difficult if there's no clue and all the desks look the same.

Thanks!

Oi dizzy! I'm in!!!

Do you have a filesize /mage size preference? My digi camera takes them big and you can resize it if you want. But I can do it pre-sending if you are having full inbox issues.

Oh goody Loirae, you're IN! :D :D I'm so happy!!!!!

Just send your picture and your clue/hint in to me as it is, like, it's normal, regular size, then I am putting them in a folder in 'My Pictures' and deleting them out of my inbox, so all is fine with the 'crowded' issue.

Robyn will be doing all of the resizing and editing, but she won't have a clue who's, is who's desk. (or which is who's desk) (or what one is which..... :? )! :D Ok?

If you don't want to 'write' a clue, then feel free to put a little something on your desk, as a clue, or a hint. Ok on that too?

It's gonna be funneeeee, seeing these hints and stuff. Watch, they'll probably confuse all of us more than the desks would. :lol:

I hope my clue proves easier than my levels. Can you believe GoBlue told me I make hard levels? The Nerve!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Ok, so... maybe I do, but I didn't mean to, honest! They just got out of hand. Like my laundry basket. At first it looks easy peasy so I keep adding stuff and adding stuff and then in the end it's whites mixed with colors and I say "Skrewt it!" and throw it all in together and forget that some people like things a tad more organized. And now my mom is asking why half of every pair of white socks is pink. And I keep trying to tell her it's not like that, but she's just mixing up my hubby's pink socks and white socks and assuming they are a pair with color blindness when actually they...

You know what? I think I've gone way far off topic. If you go too much Loopy-de-Loop and get Dizzy, me thinks one could start to ramble.

:lol:

So, yeah. I sent my piccie and the clue. That's all I meant to say. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Thanks, Emmy, for commenting on my texture. I hardly come here, so I wouldn't have known about the contest otherwise.

I'm in - although I haven't been here long enough to be "identified". I'll be thinking, though.
