Alright, Turnips, lets get this contest under way.

Theme: Real life moments
Deadline: One month from today (Sept. 8th)
Submission format: Can either be a picture (multiple entries allowed) or story (length up to the contestant)
Prize: Open to the winner. Please note, requests from the Endling are not allowed as he is super busy *sorry!*
Other information: There will be two winners per category- a first and second for an image and a first and second for the written with honorable mentions in each category.
Your judges::icondainen:, :iconshadeglass:, and :iconplayfulkitsune5894:

I think that sums up everything. Please note the club when your submission is ready and everything will be posted in our "shout" area. As a judge I will not be participating. Good luck everyone and feel free to post any questions or concerns on the journal, I'll answer them.

Update

Hello again everyone!

Here's what the general consensus on the theme is:
Awkward moments or Real life moments.

As such, I vote for the one currently in the lead (though the other is quite entertaining as well):

Real life moments!

As such, we (as a group) should decided on a time frame appropriate for the contest (written entries are allowed and will be judged on their own). Please remember that any requests of Endling may not be a viable option as... welll.... he's busy these days.

Let me know that you Turnips think!


End Update

Hello, Fellow Turnips!
After reviewing the results, the votes are in and the winner is (not by a landside, but by a few votes):

A contest

Hooray! So now my next question is:

What kind of contest? (ex: Halloween, best group picture, etc.)
What would you expect for a prize?

Alright, Turnips! Lets rally the troops and get the ideas flowing once again! Either way, input is always welcome.

*Edit*
Apparently dA has decided that polls are a member only feature. Which means I have lost all the poll responses that were sent in. For the moment if you, my fellow Turnips, would reiterate your response here, I will start working on the subscription. Such a shame that they didn't mention the feature going away since it has always been a free one. Lame. Okay, rant over.

Hi, fellow Turnips!

I received all the ideas for the next reboot for the Turnip Garden and will be posting a poll in a moment. As it goes, I'll keep the post active for a week and a half before posting the results of the poll here (which, if you vote you'll know).

After the results from the week and a half are posted, I'll advise on what the next step is. (If you haven't noticed I'm trying to get as many people active on this as I possibly can, this is part of our reboot. ;D)

Happy polling!

Hey everyone! Thanks for sumitting all your ideas. I'm out of town this weekend and won't be able to update with a new journal and poll for all the ideas submitted till Sunday evening. So if anyone has anymore that they'd like to submit, feel free, nothing has been barred yet! Thanks again!

~ShadeGlass

Okay, I am completely aware that admins and staff haven't been doing our jobs. Oops. My bad. As such, we would like to make it up to our awesome Endling minions... I mean worshippers... I mean, Turnips!

What would you like to see us, the unworthy admins, do to make it up to you? *please, please keep the requests resonable, we are a small group of people :)*

Seriously, we've been a little dead around here and I would like to see ideas to kick things up again. Throw out ideas, I will look at each one and see if it's plausible. After that I'll generate another journal with all the ideas and hold a vote.

Anyway, happy thinking!

_BEGIN EDIT TRANSMISSION!!_

As the suggestion has been brought up, I think a very delayed contest would be sweet! Now, since Easter is this Sunday, it wouldn't be very fair to set the deadline for Easter. So, I have a suggestion of making the deadline for mid-April. How does that sound? Suggestions welcome! I'm trying to make sure this worshipping place for a... distracted... End doesn't disappear.

_END EDIT TRANSMISSION_

Wow, for two weeks the we have been offline! I figured it was time for an update. So, as yet another holiday draws near this seems pretty appropriate.

Happy Easter!

To those of you who don't celebrate... Happy another day! (?)

On another note:
Some of you may have seen notes pop up in your inbox from us admins regarding favs. I just want to reiterate that we are only trying to give credit were it is due. If you got a note asking you to remove a fav from us and give it to the proper own, please don't be offended.

To those of you yet to get the note:
If you are so moved/ absolutely love something enough to :+fav: it or collect it, please click on the link provided to the original artists post and fav it there.

Thanks!

P.S. If you hadn't noticed, our subbie has run out. Sad! We are working on getting the funds together to renew our subscription.
