MetalC0Mmander: Why are they all naked?

MikeyTheFox: @MetalC0Mmander: Dat's da joke

Gren: Am I the only one here who sees a swastika?

And why is there so many random lizard and cat folk? :P

Kazerad: @Gren: I was wondering at first if it was a swastika, but no, I think t Dodger/Quill duo and the would have to be turned horizontally, and the Weedum/Nah duo flipped vertically.

As for why this exists, my understand is that the 4chan Prequel threads have been doing bellyrub pictures in celebration of, like, post #77777777 being one of them saying "and bellyrubs!". To draw as many bellyrubs as possile, they developed the concept of Bellyrub-69s.

I think they're naked because it makes them easier to draw.

Mediocre_Scrublord: gosh
if i'd have known my simple belly-rub-sixty-nining-and-also-pile-driver image was gonna be used as such i'd have prettied it up a little

Mediocre_Scrublord: @Kaz someone made a post something along the lines of "we need to have images of the following characters getting bellyrubs: [list of a bunch of characters]" and someone (probably tronn) took an image i did of katia and rajira and meddled around with it with a bunch of other bellyrubs

TodoDeygulash: @Scrublord That was actually me. I had to democratize the bellyrubs.

Tolargonian_arts: I feel like this is some new form of aincent symbol writing.

Tahrey: I'm pretty certain S'thengir is committing an illegal act, here. And we can't be sure that PD is that colour anyway, never mind that she'd have to go through a time portal to be involved in this setup.

Besides, EnchantMen is presumably gay.

And don't we have one too many Argonians and one too few Khajiit?

..............sorry, I didn't mean to be so critical. I like the thing for what it is otherwise. The drawings are cute and it's an interesting idea of transmitting the idea of a cartoonish orgy using what are more like hieroglyphs than full characters and without drawing any frame lines, thus cleverly sidestepping the gotcha rules.

Tahrey: Oh wait ... they're belly rubs?
*calls the police again and tells them to stand down as it was a false alarm*

Gren: "You wanna get paid?"

AMKitsune: Damn those 'personality enchantments'. You won't get my money so easi... When did this receipt get here?

Cool_Username: "Check 'Em!"

Tahrey: That GIFfing and palette choice ... too perfect.

Armored-Struggle-Wagon: Excellent.

Mayrasiili: Oh wow, this has got to be my favourite out of the bunch so far! I really love the symbolism here along with the strong stylistic choices. Great work!

Tahrey: Nice stylin's, bold colours, cool allegorical kind of scene...

Tolargonian_arts: Whoa •3• good job on this one! It looks amazing!

CaptainLackwit: Whoa.

Geravind: Holy shhhining of the Moon!

samus17: I will make the best tribute for Kazerad!
See you all in about a week!

Fralex: What if our cookies have a really convincing story baked into them? Do we win both contests? And then get murdered by disgruntled fellow contestants?

Fralex: Follow-up question: Are we allowed to mail you a sample, so you can judge them by taste as well as aestheics? I mean, if / were judging a cookie contest, that's what I'd want.

Kewot_Rokar: Wish I could bake.

Adroma: I will bake you the best gingerbread Argonain cookies that Quill Weave will cry because eating them would be cannibalism.
Also, I could laugh over and over again at that memorial.

Kazerad: @Fralex: If you can pack that much detail into a baked good, I think you earned the double-win.

As for your other question, no, you cannot send me the cookies. I don't handle gluten well, and also I know one person is already planning to make their cookies "argonian themed" in the sense that they are made from nothing but poisons. Like, of all the times to eat things strangers send you in the mail, a contest with this premise is probably the absolute worst.

MetalC0Mmander: @Kazerad: That guy doing the poison cookies is going to kill himself baking the damm things am I right?

Also I wasn't aware there was a worst time for that sort of thing. Unless you mean all the time is the worst time.

Kazerad: @MetalC0Mmander: Well I mean, you should really never be eating non-packaged things strangers send you in the mail. But when you know for a fact that one of the people sending them to you was planning to make cookies out of pure poison as their premise, I feel that stands out as a particularly bad time to eat things strangers send you in the mail.

I'll settle for pictures of the cookies, thank you very much. And if they taste particularly argonian and you want me to consider this as a judging factor, just like... let me know.

Tahrey: ...ditto question on art contest page, as I have a pack of home bake cookie things I've been meaning to make for ages and everyone else has been bringing cake and cookie things into work this week :p

But of course I won't be able to make them until this evening.

Tahrey: Other Q: If I was considering getting tapestry + both shirts + tote anyway, and by some extreme miracle happened to win (lol nope), could that be exchanged for complementary shipping (most likely lower value anyway) or something like that?

lockerobster: Oh wow, thanks so much for using my image in the competition flyer! You guys are great.

Kazerad: @Radian: I'm gonna say "no", just because allowing text would be a slippery slope. If you look closely, I even scrubbed the little QW in a heart out of Lockerobster's pic. There are plenty of symbols that can convey meaning, though, like medical crosses or skulls and crossbones.

@lockerobster: You're welcome! Thanks for drawing it. It was actually pretty hard finding stuff on the fanart page that exemplified the contest's premise, and yours was probably one of the best.

Rinrhajii: Of course you'd start this when my tablet is broke and taunt me with mercandise I have no money for normally but also really want! D:<

UncleSquidbow: TFW I just want the cards, but I have no money to spare. If I decide to join, if I win, can I just have the Candy Lizard pack (the pack costs the same as the apparel pack)

Quasarcat: @Kazerad:
Sooo.. Can an image have multiple panels?

Strawberry-Jamasaur: Are pictograms allowed? like if we want dialogue, using mini pictures instead of text?

Armored-Struggle-Wagon: @Quasarcat: If you read the rules, it explains you cannot have multiple panels, unfortunately.

Strawberry-Jamasaur: Well.I have 9 ideas, a very uncooperative tablet, and two days. Hopefully I can do something.

DeltaYD: lmao I tried
Tomorrow it's over and I did it wrong because I misunderstood xD

Tahrey: When you say "by Dec 9th", does that mean the start or end, and in which time zone?

Cuz it's kind of morning of the 9th here and I might have a scribble :)

JRMaCC: Best reflection ever.
Fu tha physX.

anunwantedbaby: Best kind of contest: One where you hear about it a day before the deadline.

Geravind: Oh, wow! =*_*= Damned nostalgia...
Cool background! Even the cliffracers are there, yay!

Gren: This has to win!

Kewot_Rokar: Well, it's been a long time since our last drink...

Mediocre_Scrublord: I dig it

vewpy: Love the bird flipping. Is Aggy's backstory badass enough to have him take on Red Mountain? Or is he even older than the dead elf here lol

vewpy: Wait, I'm sleep-deprived from finals. He died riding a horse.

Strawberry-Jamasaur: @vewpy: No. He died riding a unicorn. TOTALLY different things.

Kazerad: @vewpy: @Strawberry-Jamasaur: He didn't explicitly say that was how he died! And even if he thinks it was, he's not exactly a reliable source.

AMKitsune: Not entirely sure why, but I approve of this casual 'tv watching' so much. Probably because It's such a simple, relaxed thing to do. It's also adorable.

Diocletithik_Nagnaresh: holy crap, kamen rider wizard

never thought i'd see references to KR in prequel

tododeygulash, you sir have earned 219083 internets

Diocletithik_Nagnaresh: magic time, it's no trick!
this magic hero is no pushover!
