Sorry about that. I have been really busy trying to solve a real life crisis, so photography has really taken a back burner at the moment. My apologies to you and especially to Andrew.

You and Lydia are fine. Sorry, I wasn't directing that sigh at you.

ETA: has anyone heard from toddhead lately?

Andrew how are you doing? I am very sorry I have not been shooting this month. :( I have so much crap to deal with in the real world it has sucked the fun out of everything.

I noticed that the rules state:
i) If any challenges at that point are still in voting or in submission, then these challenges will run their course.

So, Barry, does that mean that the automobile ad (I am not in) plus the still life/I quit as well as the challenge announced at rollover all count because they are in submission phase before the final day of our H2H which is the 26th? What about the May FS?

Hi Ernie. You're right, automobile ad, I quit, Still Life plus whatever members challenge is posted in the morning will count for yours. Looking at the timings the FS will be voting the same time as tomorrow's challenge so I'll count that towards both quarter finals. The open challenges posted on wed morning will count towards judi and toddhead's also.

I dunno. I pmed him a while ago and he never replied. He doesn't seem to have been online at all these past few weeks.

He hasn't entered in 6 weeks and hasn't sent any notification.....does that mean he has forfeited this round?

Very possibly. On the other hand your average is above his, so you'll go through by default. As ernie and andrewt haven't finished yet you've not yet got a semi-final opponent (hey you might be playing ernie again).

I'll pm him tomorrow. If he doesn't reply I'll take him out. I'll maybe give him a couple of days though.

Well, whatever you do, don't send Judi through against me for the Final Round. She'll get naked and that'll win over my naked frog any day. *sigh*

Right, didn't hear from

toddhead, so I'm officially declaring him out.

Judi is now in the semi-final, where she'll play the winner of

andrewt and

basssman7. The winner out of that match plays

LydiaToo in the final.

So, Ernie and andrew, it's all down to you two. How are you doing?

Well I am not in automobile or still life/I quit.

I am in the FS and probably will be in friends/enemies. Not too sure about unusual objects.

I am not in auto or still life/quit either. (I feel better about not getting an entry in now that I know you did not either) I will definately be in FS. I am going to try for objects. Does Friends/enemies count for us? If it does not then I will definately find a way to get something (anything) in to objects so that Andrew will get two more shots at winning against me.

Well, if I am lucky enough to survive the next week against Andrew in this thing, (which is still anyone's match) it would be a pleasure to face a rematch against Judi. I am happy just being here in the final 8. (not SATISFIED, just happy.)

No, the last challenge of the round will be objects. I must admit, I'm somewhat stuck for objects too.

That is what I thought. so objects and the FS are the last ones for us. :) Thanks for clarifying.

I meant to say, seeing as you're at 1-0, it won't make any difference, but just so you know, I'll work out the objects results, then the FS, when we get that far.
