It's a much more versatile than a brighter/truer red would be, IMO.

It's unusual in the sense of being allowable by sb's criteria for the challenge however, and is certainly a clever choice within its parameters, as it's a bit more versatile than some of the colours the rest of us wore!


FTR, RDiaz was the rulemaker here. I just chimed in to keep us on track with the stated guidelines.

Ah. I was wondering. He gained 14 or so in the period of two hours. Makes sense now (not that his fit isn't deserving, but the speed at which he gained votes was astounding).


given SWDs penchant for thumbs, its no surprise they would be more likely to vote than most MCers

I'd love the custom title of "Not Clapeyron" provided you get "Not Claghorn"


how cute!

Hold up. Waitamin... I probably will still be able to participate.


Any suggestions for the next challenge?

Does anybody hear anything, or is it just the wind?

I was indeed expecting to see some more red and also lavender/mauve, which were explicitly permitted. Those were the most versatile allowed colors

As for suggestions for the next challenge, I'm afraid I have none to give... kinda uninspired.
