I Want IRON!!

[LavronYor]

Uhhh, seriously, any idea of how soon til the next thrilling round of Iron Painter?

[supervike]

I'd say right around the time the FEMME FATALE contest gets over with...

[Frustrated Father]

Which would be around mid February if Jim holds to the above schedule and I'll likely plan another Wyrd Painting Contest after the Iron Painter in order to keep things jumping but not lapping over as well.

I'm kind of jonesing for a IP as well to be honest.

[Ritual]

Yeah, after Femme Fatale 2 would be fine! I will volounteer as judge again, of course!

[callumrice]

Yeah, I WOULD volunteer as judge too, but I got plans to whip everyone this time round so judging may not be the best route to take. Come on the IRON!

[DrEvilmonki]

Actually isn't that the only way you could win? :vb_devil:


Cool pre-IP smack down!

[flynn]

As much as I'd like to participate in the Iron Painter, I don't think I'll have the time to do so due to other painting commitments. :D

I can volunteer to be a judge, though.

[EricJ]

yep, I know I'm looking forward to it also, although not sure if I want to try to commit the time to participate or sit back and get to judge. Crushing dreams is so fun! :D

I do know however, I have a little something in mind to donate as a prize to the cause to up the ante a little bit ;)

[Duende]

yep, I know I'm looking forward to it also, although not sure if I want to try to commit the time to participate or sit back and get to judge.

Well, maybe stop wiffle-waffling over it and decide already so vike can get a replaccement judge if he needs to! I've already sent him my resumé and apparently have to beat out flynn for your job. ;)

[flynn]

I have no resume to send. :-p

Unless there's some C++ development involved, I don't know that I have any qualifications as a painting judge.

[Skya]

*cackles maniacly!*

Ok, I'm done now. I miss my Iron Painter too, but given how sick I've been I'm not sure I'll be up for the next one. Here's hoping.

[Stupidcow]

I have no resume to send. :-p

Unless there's some C++ development involved, I don't know that I have any qualifications as a painting judge.

If supervike & his bunch of lakeys can be a judges, I dun see why you'll need any qualifications to judge the Iron painter contest. A calculator is all you need.

[Duende]

As far as I know, the only things you need to be able to judge is the ability to see, able to type semi-coherently, and able to count to ten. I'm fairly certain the other judges can do that much (although I'm still wondering...).

Hey and I can accept bribes as well as any of the others too!

:)

[flynn]

Well, I do have a math degree, but we usually only got up to 7 in my classes. 10 is a bit of a stretch.

[callumrice]

Actually isn't that the only way you could win? :vb_devil:


Cool pre-IP smack down!

Damn! Scuppered even before the plan reaches fruition. Your smart Dr monkey, maybe too smart.....

[LavronYor]

Tis good to know that others are looking forward to the challenge....

[supervike]

This from Mr. Hello Kitty!!

And I DON'T use a calculator...my fingers and toes have never steered me wrong....

[Ritual]

And I DON'T use a calculator...my fingers and toes have never steered me wrong....
Except on a few occasions... :rolleyes:

[supervike]

Except on a few occasions... :rolleyes:

You are not very supportive, considering you are SUPPOSED to be one of my 'lackey's'...

:bowsucker

[Hinton]

This from Mr. Hello Kitty!!

And I DON'T use a calculator...my fingers and toes have never steered me wrong....

Really? 'Cause I seem to recall there was some kind of counting error or something in the last IP. Run out of fingers and toes, perhaps? :tongue1:

:laugh:

[Duende]

Really? 'Cause I seem to recall there was some kind of counting error or something in the last IP. Run out of fingers and toes, perhaps?

Jim counts in metric and forgot to convert his numbers in the last IP.

Yep. ;)

[LavronYor]

Wow, my toes have steered me wrong on several occasions.... that backwater bar in Tijuana, that late night strip club.... back in my younger, pre married days that is....

[DrEvilmonki]

Really? 'Cause I seem to recall there was some kind of counting error or something in the last IP. Run out of fingers and toes, perhaps? :tongue1:

:laugh:

Depending on which backwater he comes from we could have a very strange number of fingers and toes!

[supervike]

*banjo playing in background*


I have the right number of fingers (6) and toes (7) on each limb, thank you. Its the webbing in between which causes me the frustration.

you shore do have a purdy mouth.

[Ritual]

I have the right number of fingers (6) and toes (7) on each limb, thank you.
The question that autometically springs to mind is: How many limbs? :hmmmm:

[supervike]

Lets just say, a few.

You will be asking me to squeal like a pig next.

Actually I just got a DVD copy of deliverance as a christmas present to myself. One of the finest comedies ever made!

That is just slightly disturbing ...

[matty1001]

Deliverence is fantastic, my dad made me watch that about a month ago, its great!

[LavronYor]

Uhhh.... made me watch it?

It ranks up there with the welcome to prison scene from American History X..

[EricJ]

Dear Mr. Vike

So I've decided that it's not real fair to sit here holding a judges spot while considering dropping the role in order to participate next round. Especially considering the rigorous selection process for replacement and extensive training and conditioning required to replace me :D

I'm just going to say now that you should find a replacement in the judging department. I'm not 100% sure I'll be able to participate yet, that'll be a game time decision but I'm leaning towards it. :)

Best regards,
EricJ, former Judge
IRON PAINTER

[supervike]

Ah...I certainly accept your resignation, but will hope you return as judge somewhere down the road. You are definately my favorite of the three. (unless the other two are reading, in which case substitute their names as my favorite).

If you do become an Iron Painter, best of luck!

[Duende]

.... extensive training and conditioning required to replace me :D


That takes, what, all of ten minutes? :D

[Ritual]

Ah...I certainly accept your resignation, but will hope you return as judge somewhere down the road. Anders is definately my favorite of the three.
Why, thank you! :D

[supervike]

Yup, just like I wrote it!!

(unless your name happens to be Nathan)

[EricJ]

yep, I very well may be back to crush dreams...I mean judge, but I need something to snap me into painting again, so this might be good motivation for me :)

[Duende]

My favorite judge is Eranderthan! I think he's some kind of elf....

[WolfDreamerNZ]

I am still getting used to where to find stuff (past threads) - but I think I have the gist of the competition. Sounds awesome.... 2 weeks huh? I can see me telling the boss now...

"ummmm sorry for the trouble - but I need the next two days off - see I entered this painting contest and the deadline is this weekend...and as it normally takes me 6 weeks to finish a mini, I am running a bit behind schedule......"

Let me get through FFII and see where I'm at then - but it sounds like a lot of fun!

[LavronYor]

Fun, it ain't fun. It's like painter's boot camp. NOW DROP AND PAINT ME 20... PAINT THIS, PAINT THAT, NOW MAKE IT ANGRY, NOW MAKE IT FUNNY, NO WAIT NOT FUNNY FUNNY, WEIRD FUNNY, NO STRANGE FUNNY, HAHA ..... uhhhhh maybe it is fun.... who started this stupid thread?

So..... February 26 eh?

[Malebolgia]

Yeah...Jim is the ultimate drill instructor. Change your Avatar Jim!

[Stupidcow]

My favorite judge is Eranderthan! I think he's some kind of elf....

That sounds like a gay elf's name!

[Duende]

That sounds like a gay elf's name!

I think I see a certain bovine who won't make it past the first round of the next IP! :p:

Ahh yes but us down here in NZ get an extra weekend day due to the time difference!

[Duende]

Yes, but you don't find out the theme until a day after everyone else!

:p:

So, Vike, any IP News? I'm feeling anemic.

[LavronYor]

Three more weeks?

[Ritual]

Hey!! If you are feeling that bored you should work on entries for Femme Fatale!!

[callumrice]

Roll on 3 weeks! Woohoo!

[LavronYor]

ONE WEEK. or maybe ONE WEAK.....

Who says I am not, and I enjoy the one on one competition, as well as the ability to talk and give WIPs, etc, not to mention the wonderful judges.... .

[callumrice]

Itchin for some Iron lavron?? I cant wait till the powers that be post that magical list, name after gullible name being added to my prize fund. Oh, right, wait till AFTER the tourney starts before issueing smack. Doh!

[matty1001]

I can't wait for this to start now, i really love getting a challenge and given a sense of direction.

[supervike]

Go sign up in the IRON PAINTER THREE thread!!

[callumrice]

Woopeee!
