Horror stories from the world of shared living spaces. EEK!

Poor cersia5 wrote me a note and told me where she's been--she broke her thumb in two places!

This means she's unable to make banners this time around and possibly, the next time her name comes up in the rotation.

So...

Anyone wanna step in and make banners for this weeks winners in her stead?

Congratulations to all the participants and winners and welcome to all our new members and contributors! It’s so amazing to have such a great community filled with such talented and friendly people. :)

Glad to see so many new participants as well as some familiar faces I’ve missed.

NEW AND RETURNING MEMBERS, Please be sure to let the community members know if your icons are up for grabs—with credit of course! Winners and non-winners alike. I get requests for both. :) POST HERE to let us know.


Feel free to advertise the community in your lj's and PotC related communities that allow it—it would be appreciated!

Don't forget to enter our newest challenge #146: Enter H E R E

Banners will be posted soon. This week it's cersia5 that's making our banners. :)


( Week 145 Winners! )

The East India Trading Company seeks to control the Caribbean, while pirates all over the world struggle for their existence and freedom. Captain Jack Sparrow seeks a heart. Davy Jones wants souls. William Turner seeks redemption. Elizabeth Swann needs a wedding night. James Norrington desires honour. Lord Cutler Beckett wants the world. What is it you seek? Set during Dead Man's Chest (after Jack has set sail from Tortuga with his new crew), what will these characters do to see their dreams come to fruition? What will they be willing to sacrifice? And what will become of the pirates of the Caribbean?

I know that everyone has been busy or occupied with the usual summer stuff we do, and there have hardly been any entries in this contest. ( Pouts :( LOL) For those of you are might not have had the time or energy to devote ( I mean come on, mates, who wouldn't want to win a Master Replica statue of our beloved Captain Jones?? ) to writing, here's a recap of the contest and an extension date to get those entries in!


1. All entrants who enter the contest can choose a small Davy Jones item ( like a keychain or magnet) from ebay. ALL ENTRANTS.


2. The essay question is:

Do you consider Davy Jones to be a villain? Why or why NOT?



The essay does not have to have a word limit but it should be WELL-THOUGHT OUT and not just one paragraph, but something that's in-depth and thoughtful, and give examples from the Disney movies.



3. The winner will be determined by myself and by MidnightSky, owner of this forum/site.


4. You must be willing to give a MAILING ADDRESS and AN E MAIL ADDRESS ( no post office boxes because they don't deliver large packages through UPS to a postal box) for me to send you your entry prize or the Master Replicas Statue.


5. The grand prize winner will be the happy owner of a MASTER REPLICAS DAVY JONES STATUE.


6. NEW EXTENSION DATE: Entries must be posted HERE on the board by JULY 15th, 2008. Winner will be determined a few days later and notified by e mail.



Now mates don't disappoint me or the Captain...get those entries in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

( Week 146 Challenges... )

I hope we get more entries for that contest because it's sort of a disappointment that there have been so very few entries!!

You guys have a couple more days before the contest ends.


Someone here asked where to post the entries. Post it here, on the board. And for a photo of the statue:





Get those entries in, mates!!
