Hehrow Ewewonne...
My apologies for having gone a bit silent these past few days. I had to go in for some scheduled dental surgery this past week, which is no big deal in of itself, but the pain meds really knocked me on my keister for a bit. Anyway, the 'ole choppers are gleefully gnashing away and I'm back on the game. 'It is safe.' :)
This week I'm issuing polls for both the Challengers' Choice and Peoples' Choice Awards.
First up: The Challengers' Choice.
For the the selection of the Challengers' Choice I'd like all the participants of this year's event to refer to the poll in the right sidebar and choose the top three entries/figures that impressed them the most over the course of this year's Challenge. This can be an entire entry, a series of entries built around a theme, or a specific figure within an entry (theme entries included). The votes are weighted with the first choice getting 3 points, second with 2 points and third receiving 1 point. I've included a free text field if you want to leave any additional comments.
Also, please remember to provide your Challenge name or I will be forced to ignore your votes.
I'll be releasing a poll for the Peoples' Choice Award in a few days. This poll will allow all those folks who followed the Challenge over the past three months to participate and vote for their favourite entries.
Voting for the Challengers' Choice closes at midnight next Sunday (April 5th).
Cheers!

Voting for this category is even harder than last year. The quality, quantity and variety of entries was breath taking. I think everyone deserves a prize! Especially the newbies :)
ReplyDeleteYup! Too true!
DeleteI can get behind that idea ;)
DeleteGlad your teeth are better, had a similar problem last year with horizontal wisdom teeth. Could you have given us a harder task. Actually it was easy, I picked the 3 posts that still standout in my mind when asked to explain to Challenge to civilians
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to spend Sunday afternoon, trawling through all these amazing entries.
ReplyDeleteIt is a very hard task selecting three! ;)
ReplyDeleteDentists,schmentists! All you need is a pair of vice grips and a bottle of rum. Heck you even have a dentists chair in your living room.
ReplyDeleteAll kidding aside, glad to hear that all is well after the visit to the tooth wright.
Cheers, PD
Give me the rum first...for God sakes.. Just forget he sodomy and the lash..
DeleteEspecially if the person administering either of them looks like Shane MacGowan!
DeletePip pip
Well caught !
DeleteDave - the whole "Dave's a GIMP" thing was just a joke, I think you're taking it a bit too seriously...
Delete@jmilesr indeed it is. It is gone. For this ref you need to check out "The Pogues"
DeleteThe old C18th Royal Navy quote was (apparently) "Rum, Bum and Bacca" later as "Ashore it's wine, women and song, but aboard, it's rum, bum and concertina". Sadly, the story linking this line with Churchill is false - although he admitted to wishing he actually had said it.

I HATE visiting the dentist, but sometimes it's necessary. Voting done!
ReplyDeleteDamn, I wish I'd thought to take notes! Well, nothing for it but to go back through the archives...
ReplyDeleteNow you have done it...that bloody movie kept me away from the dentist for years!
ReplyDeleteOoh I have few stand outs.. Come to mind..but must take a look..
DeleteOk which movie? Little Shop of Horors?
DeleteCheers, PD

DeleteI now can't get the vision of Steve Martin singing the Dentist Son from Little Shop of Horrors out of my head (I have, however, got a big smile on my face as a result).
ReplyDeleteVotes now cast.

ReplyDeleteSteve Martin. For me it only works with the the Man With Two Brains..
ReplyDeleteDead Men Don't Wear Plaid is his best work.
DeleteOh yes..
DeleteClearly this is the result of spending too much time on biting satire Mr Campbell.
ReplyDeleteThis is going to hours of research to pick a top 3. Excellent! Looking back through this is a most worthwhile use of time.
ReplyDeletecheers
So many wonderful entries I just cannot choose.
ReplyDeleteI have chosen - but blimey there were so many that could have made the podium
ReplyDeleteHello! I really like that you have presented all these pictures.I think the angle is new and very inspirational. Good work mate!!! I will start follow your work.
ReplyDeleteGreetings from Sweden/ Peter
I really have to pick three, its like choosing among the stars of the sky!
ReplyDeleteWhat a hard choice to make!
ReplyDeleteBut finally I picked three entries from my top twenty. An excellent pastime for Good Saturday morning.
Happy and blessed Easter to you all !
Cheers
Stefan
I missed the deadline because of the long Easter weekend, but I'll vote in the public voting. :)
