Darren Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 So, since I'm replying to this, does that mean I get the space "Be the first to reply to a new thread" ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should also clarify and say that each member has their own scorecard. Even if another member has completed a particular objective you can still complete that same objective to fill out your own line. -Shy[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allamorph Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 [FONT=Arial]I think the upper left block should read "create a new thread [I]and get[/I] ten replies", really. Unless you're really good at hacking and can just start a thread at post eleven. [/jerk][/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaryanna Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 [COLOR="DarkGreen"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]Oh and I forgot, I should get that square for pet pictures automatically since my banner and avatar means my pet's picture is posted every single time I actually post! :p[/FONT][/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellerby Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 [SIZE="1"][COLOR="DimGray"]What an awesome way to encourage activity across all sections of the boards! First off, here is a picture of my cat for the [b]Post a picture of your pet(s) on OB[/b] space.

You really just praised it blindly. At least point out a typo or something. Shrug. NO BINGO! Good effort, but try again! [b]Aaryanna:[/b] I don't like the idea of posting pictures of someone else's pets, because then you can just take any old picture from the internet and claim it as your own. (Not that you can't do that now, but still...) If you don't have an actual pet you can always take a picture of your Neopet or bamboo plant or little brother or something. Heh.

Rachmaninoff Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 I think Sara wins the create a banner square hands down. =P Anyway, interesting idea Shy, though I wonder if we should have this as an event instead of a thread in the Lounge. Scratch that I checked with James and you Shy so this is now an event and I'm moving it over to the appropriate section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shy Posted July 26, 2008 Author Share Posted July 26, 2008 [size=1]Okay, it has been one week and we've only received a few bites... But the potpourri space is updated again. "Create a new banner/avatar inspired by DeathKnight, and use it!" Be creative with your interpretations. Have fun! -Shy[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellerby Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 [COLOR="DimGray"][SIZE="1"]Okay I waited a little to give you other Bingoers a go (haha) but I think I'm being too easy on you guys so I've critiqued someones writing in the Anthology.

Darren Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 [URL="http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=59350"]Click[/URL] So, at first I thought you might change the bingo card after someone wins once, but since you haven't, I'll assume my anthology critique will still apply.

Darren Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Well it seems to be the easiest one to complete in my opinion. Some of those things I don't have a clue on how to do it... Perhaps you should shift around some of the squares after each bingo, instead of coming up with something entirely new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, as more people complete Bingo I will start to change up the master square. -Shy[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 No, seriously: I can literally only do half of the things up there (12 out of 24) The rest either don't apply, requires talents (or a very messy entry) that I don't possess, or I don't know how to do. And what do you mean you expect more? I'm only just now venturing out of my hole in the theatre... I've only been here for two years.

Shy Posted August 1, 2008 Author Share Posted August 1, 2008 [quote name='Darren']*blah*[/QUOTE][size=1]You can post a silly picture of yourself on the site, or create a banner/avatar for another member. I mean, the whole point is to encourage members to post outside of their comfort zone... right? Though some challenges are harder than others, I see at least three different bingos that can be achieved without a whole lot of effort. Creating a banner/avatar or OB-inspired recipe isn't very difficult. I never said what you make has to be any good. -Shy[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellerby Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 [COLOR="DimGray"][SIZE="1"]Yeah, I don't see any reason why any member on this forum can't do every single one of those squares. Just takes a little effort. :angel:[/SIZE][/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakura Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 [COLOR="Navy"][SIZE="1"]Ummm, the photo of the pet one may not be able to be done since not all people have pets, thus why people wouldn't attempt a line using it. And there are people who have no ability with graphics... ....Just saying >.> (I can't do either one ;__; )[/SIZE][/COLOR] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
