2013 Halloween Pumpkin Carving Contest!

Snype · Oct 5, 2013

I think we need a lot more new contests on IC to keep things interesting here! The contest section seems pretty bland. I will donate a $50 gift certificate to seedbay to whomever is voted to have the best carved pumpkin. If they let me donate some seed then I will also donate a package to the contest winner! Let's get into the holiday mood!

Good luck with your ideas, I hope the admins approve

Well I guess we can forget out this contest. I just read the sticky by Payoso and it states that prizes must be at seedbay before contest is announced. No wonder there's barely any contests on this site there's so many rules.

this can still happen.... just got to get right folks on board in the right way....
the"RULES" are for the protect and security of members ...

it's just best to follow the guidlines.... too many examples of BAD member interaction in the past that can lead to LEO issues....

So these subjects of contest are often watched closely....

BUT I'd love to help U w/ this....
Payaso has sent word on "how" to do this.... WE just need to follow thru..

By the time everything is sent to seedbay, halloween will be over. And then it could also be taken by the UK postal system and have to be resent over and over. Didn't know it was so dangerous to hold a pumpkin carving contest. Pumpkins are so dangerous!

couldn't you make purchase and have them hold seed for prize?

you could start the first annual pumpkin carving contest, that would be a right proper legacy.

its NOT the contest.... it's the prize given, and how one receives said prize....
direct member to member contact in these situations is frowned upon... for personal security

if Payaso, can get OP, or Clarence to say Yes, the prize can just get coved out of Bay/Boo inventory... and be shipped to contest winner directly fro the boo....

this is the only way contest can happen....

U'r effort to make it happen are noteworthy, and U'r idea of offering up a prize Ur-self is commendable....

do't feel downtrodden-ed just cause we gotta jump a few hoops to make it happen.....

this is still a good idea.... also the reason why this sort of contest must be organized ahead of time.... and followed up w/ consistent judging and organizing....

I want a ICMAG Pumpkin Carving Contest too!

I entered the Halloween photo contest on icmag in the past and had a great time.I already have some pumpkins and some cool ideas in mind.

yortbogey · Oct 10, 2013

VERY good.... where still working on conformation for this....
but so far so good....

I am willing to help judge the contest and facilitate the efforts.... all the while iobstaining from the event.... I'd rather see members win.... than my self....

my previous skills in culinary ice carving obviously give me a edge that is un fair to most...

So i offer my service to bring this to light and help it happen....

get U'r pumpkins picked.... find U'r tools and stencils....
its coming.....
