Originally posted by meyers: Originally posted by Quigley: Hey Rob, what about the corresponding challenge entries, (Flora, Fauna) would you order them in descending order as well in a separate post or would you mix the challenges together form
highest to lowest?
Are we losing the sub teams all together or are we keeping them for use on a later date. I've been so busy lately that I missed all the buzz about the FU, could someone sum it up for me??
PLEASE!!!
MAX! |
We used to use the subteams to compete within Team Suck for our own ribbons. The winning team got to vote on OOBIEs, but that isn't a regular feature anymore. Since we're not all that big on how others scored our images, there's little point to keeping our subteams (though I still have the list of who is on what team).
The Featured User (FU) is someone picked at random from that week's entrants. I announce the (un)lucky person on Tuesday, and people can send me questions or images from the FU's portfolio they'd like to learn more about. I email the "interview" on Thursday night (or so) and post results when I get them. |

Thank you Rob for all your work and the explanation, this works for me, YOU ROCK.
All the best to you and yours.
MAX! |

Candi, welcome to the Jungle errr, Team Suck. Trust me this is a great crowd of people who have truly helped me improve my photography a lot - oops excuse me -
*unable to suppress snickers any longer and howling with laughter while rolling on floor*
Ahem, there we are, much better. But seriously, we are all wonderfully supportive here, and if you ever feel discouraged, just look at some of my earliest entries and accompanying scores, you'll feel positively brilliant :-)
oh yeah anyone seen my brownie recipe lately so I can post it for da noobs? |
Okay I'll bite!! Is this brownies you eat (do you feel funny afterwards?} or is this a recipe for the brownie ribbon?

LOL! The edible kind, funny man! :-) Well, if you choose to add ingredients that make you feel funny afterwards, that's your decision. Let me go scrounge on the forums and see if I can find it.... |

WELCOME Candi to Team Suck I hope you enjoy the jocularity and the witty banter as well that you will encounter from the other team members. Now that we are in the process of abolishing
the sub teams(sniffs and wipes away tears) we can't have our usual "We want her, no We want her, no You take her,no You take her" discussion so I'll just say welcome aboard the boat, you
won't find many squirrels but the place is LOADED WITH NUTS :)
I leave you now with one parting thought, not all things that suck are bad :)
All the best to you and yours.
MAX! |

Snaffles Infamous Brownie Recipe
Brownie recipe (can be doubled)
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup flour
1/2 cup cocoa powder
2 eggs
1/2 cup margarine (or softened butter, if preferred)
1 tsp vanilla
3 tbsps water OR substitute same amount of liquer, ie Bailey's, for Boozy Brownies
OPTIONAL 1/2 cup chopped nuts or similar foreign bodies
Sift sugar, cocoa and flour together into a bowl. Add all other ingredients and beat for at least 2 minutes (beater setting on medium seems best). Fold in any foreign bodies. Pour batter into a greased 8-inch pan. Bake at 325 for 30 minutes. Let cool, cut into squares and EAT!

Thanks Lea for digging up my recipe! :-)
Yeah, the doggie does look a little feldman-esque...I wouldn't recommend shooting him with a fisheye!
Ok off now to collect more sap...the 2 maples I am tapping this year have given me, to date, 21.5 GALLONS of sap and they only really began producing April 3rd. I give them loving pats and say thank you each time I collect. :-0 |
