Pronounce my username as you will, it will always be what it is.
I would do that with a candy cane though, so you rock.
Also, I'd like to look at my own description.
And I'm not sure if I'm going to join this one, but I might change my mind.
Edit: lolYUP! changed my mind.
Love me right now! Done.

(Late) Happy New Year to everyone. I hope that you all had a good time with family or friends. Or relaxing on this weird day that for some strange reason is made special xP

I have added a link to a countdown after each time and date in OP.
Now there are no excuse for not knowing how long you got until signup closes, the event starts or ends xD

There is still plenty of time until the signup closes on the 18th, but better signup now instead of potentially forget it!

@ IJustWantLove


Thank you for drawing my character. I really like the way his eyes are colored.

@ Psykeout I'm sorry if the drawing looks incomplete. If you want, I can finish it before I upload it on to DeviantArt. This was the pogo stick I used as a base http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Pogoanim.gif

That was due today?
Picture above
He's holding a fork and a plate with leftover birthday cake but you probably can't tell that.
He is a real pain to draw and I am not amused by the fact that I had to draw him twice.
|:(
that was fun enough though.

Oh well that's nifty I've got my pogo stick and I'm a giant and there's a duck blimp that's nice.
Thank you very much Mr. Curse3000

It looks complete enough to me! I also appreciate how angular your drawings are it it's awesome that you did this for me.

And that pogo stick is cool.

I will take over the world with my pogo sticking.

I would like to request a smile this time.
One that says "I'm thinking of someone/something pleasant and(optionally) nostalgic."
Just going with season, and wanting to see what can be done about making that surly face seem cheerful for a moment.
Love me right now! Done.

Unless I'm mistaken (which I oftentimes am), your description you write in one round has no effect on the description you put in the next round, since you have to write one at the beginning of each round. I'm lazy, so I made a text file of my description so I don't have to retype it each time, but it could conceivably be completely different each time.

If I had in my description last round "also draw me as a pineapple", but this round I didn't want people to draw me as a pineapple, all I'd have to do is not include it in the description I submit.

well, for those who have quick descriptions or feel like having a separate text file to copy and paste each time, they should do that. But I have like, 8 short paragraphs for mine because I give options. Though I may make a separate file to copy and paste next round. but still, why would they give that option if they didn't expect people to take it?

Because some people are really polite like that.

It's like "Hey here are some snacks take as many as you like," usually that means take some but leave plenty for everyone else, even if you'd like to eat them all.

Basically we just sit around and tell other people what to draw and he's juggling 15 or so people around trying to get everything organized and I just feel like it would be in everyone's best interest to make it as easy as possible on him out of courtesy.

Of course, it would be most convenient if everyone just wrote the description again. But I don't really mind if I have to copy it from one of the previous rounds, as long as I know which round it is. Getting the description saying that I should copy from the last time they participated ... right, which round was that? I will have to look through several files to try and find you.
It is not that it is hard, but not mentioning the round is the most inconvenient for me.
