Discovered On A Gangplank


Many thanks to everyone who took part in the Discovered On A Gangplank Pros challenge - Pieces of eight and jolly rogerers to you all! Not only was it fun, but there is some lovely new Prosfic around, and a few rather fab new icons...

All Discovered On A Gangplank entries have now been archived to the DiaLJ User Info page. This means that if you would like to go back and see the fic, icons and so on from this challenge, all you need to do is click on the miniature banner on the User Info page. (This'll seem a lot more useful after we've run a few more challenges, of course...*g*)

If any of the contributors would like to gack the Challenge Icon (credit to empty_mirrors) then please do, as a thank you for taking part!

And finally... well... the world keeps spinning and the year is moving on... Keep your eyes out for the next DiaLJ challenge (and ideas for challenges are always welcome - just send either empty_mirrors or myself an email - addresses on the user info page)

Thoroughly enjoyed the results, who would have thought so many different stories and approaches could have come up. Well done, all.
Next challenge? Well, it's a bit predictable, I suppose, but surely there must be room for some more ghosty stories about the lads for Halloween!

Hee - I have to admit, the banner's already designed for that one... Halloween was gonna be the first one we did, but then empty_mirrors came up with her brilliant Pirate Day challenge, and... yeay! We'll do an announcement probably at the end of this week. Although if you're feeling inspired..? *g*

Or maybe a combo? Halloween and that very British one, Guy Fawkes /Bonfire night? Since they're pretty close together, and it's nothing to do with the fact that I have a Guy Fawkes one in mind. *g*

Well, in theory we could do a combo I guess... The halloween one is already on the cards (tarot cards, presumably *g*) but there's no reason we couldn't do Guy Fawkes quick on the heels of it for the week after - remember, remember the fifth of November... Yes! - there, I have the nod from my partner-in... non-crime?...anyway, like the man from Del Monte, empty_mirrors says yes... *g* Good plan! Halloween first, Guy Fawkes night the week after. Yeay. Now, go write *g*

Sounds good to me!! And, of course, by combo I meant that we could pick one or the other, not combine the two. ( Though I think there should be a special prize if smn did *g*).

Loved Bonfire Night as a child. One of those peculiarly British things that when you explain it to a foreigner "Wait, he tried to blow up Parliament and you celebrate that with hot soup and burning effegies?" sounds even more peculiar!

Hee - it's true. I get very weird looks when I try and explain bonfire night over here! They tend to think that I'm being very quaint I think *g*

Oh yeay, I love this time of year!

Love the new banner you have there at the moment. Very appropriate to see a yawning Doyle first thing in the morning.

Created by banner goddess empty_mirrors, as are all the comm graphics! And yeah, I'd like to see alot more of Doyle yawning in the morning myself... *g*

Thank you empty_mirrors for the banner. I look forward to seeing future creations.
