The ghost of Christmas future wants you to work hard and finish your pixels!

Panda · « **Reply #252 on:** December 22, 2007, 08:22:34 am »

And Panda wants you to finish your pixels fast, because he has to organize the thread, and doesn't want to do that the whole day tomorrow.
>:0!

1 DAY LEFT!

Feron · « **Reply #253 on:** December 22, 2007, 12:39:28 pm »

do we have until midnight on sunday 23rd GMT?

or midnight tonight?

Panda · « **Reply #254 on:** December 22, 2007, 12:45:53 pm »

I will make the last check on the 24th's morning (GMT)
So you have the whole 23rd + a few hours if your timezone is playing on your side.

Mirre · « **Reply #255 on:** December 22, 2007, 01:46:38 pm »

Go go go you guys!

Larwick · « **Reply #256 on:** December 22, 2007, 02:10:42 pm »

We don't want anyone getting pixelled coal now do we...

Terley · « **Reply #257 on:** December 22, 2007, 02:46:01 pm »

Sent! phew.

Hope he/she likes it.

Goodluck to those left.

Frankiesmileshow · « **Reply #258 on:** December 22, 2007, 03:11:49 pm »

Eeep I hope I got some time left! Mine is really advanced but... I think ill have to make it simpler than I first planned... $:-\$

Malor · « **Reply #259 on:** December 22, 2007, 03:35:07 pm »

hmmm a lot of people are cutting it pretty close.. ah well I'm sure everyone will finish in time

Frankiesmileshow · « **Reply #260 on:** December 22, 2007, 03:43:43 pm »

well I could call mine done now, it doesnt look really half finished, but I had planned much more things for it, and ill try to do as much of them as I can before its over...

eck · « **Reply #261 on:** December 22, 2007, 05:03:10 pm »

ya well my first idea i overshot my capabilities by miles. i haven't had time to even finish the preliminary pixeling, so i shall be starting again with something much simpler, and hopefully just as satisfying.

cave · « **Reply #262 on:** December 22, 2007, 05:30:05 pm »

Finally, I submitted mine! Took me long enough but it's all worth it in the end

Hatch · « **Reply #263 on:** December 22, 2007, 07:36:05 pm »

Gift sent. I would like to thank my partner in advance for pretending to like it, as it has nothing to do with his/her interests

am_pm · « **Reply #264 on:** December 22, 2007, 07:41:15 pm »

Wow, finally submitted mine.

same for me, although mine is more likely to be disliked because of its terribleness.

submitted mine.

Faktablad · « **Reply #266 on:** December 22, 2007, 09:54:09 pm »

C'mon, people!

SolidIdea · « **Reply #267 on:** December 22, 2007, 09:57:44 pm »

Sent mine

BG · « **Reply #268 on:** December 22, 2007, 10:05:52 pm »

No bloody way! I totally forgot about this! And all my latest versions is in my school!

I gotta redo ALOT of stuff AND finnish tonight

Pan · « **Reply #269 on:** December 22, 2007, 10:25:09 pm »

I tried so many times to fit my persons likes, but failed. Hope he likes it anyway.

cave · « **Reply #270 on:** December 22, 2007, 10:44:52 pm »

I didn't try to fit in all of their fandoms like some people here said they were doing. I just picked one thing and developed it into something unexpected

eck · « **Reply #271 on:** December 22, 2007, 10:54:58 pm »

i prepose that those that don't hand theirs in on time get another week to explain their lack of submission and perhaps turn it in?

Doomcreator0 · « **Reply #272 on:** December 22, 2007, 11:26:23 pm »

90% Done!

Shall have it tomorrow night or something.

BG · « **Reply #273 on:** December 23, 2007, 01:26:23 am »

Phew. Done and sent

Got alot striped down compared to the original one I was working on, but I hope my partner will like it.

Sabata · « **Reply #274 on:** December 23, 2007, 01:57:12 am »

O my god!!! I am LATE!!!! Sunday is the last day! Rigth? Please say it is!!!! I have to pixel faster...

Malor · « **Reply #275 on:** December 23, 2007, 03:22:05 am »

Sabata.. this is the last day, but you can submit a WIP, and gift the finished one later

Frankiesmileshow · « **Reply #276 on:** December 23, 2007, 03:47:32 am »

Just have one more thing to add and mines' finished! whew, that was fun.
[edit] Finished! pmed robot santa...

Jolly · « **Reply #277 on:** December 23, 2007, 04:23:22 am »

Yes its almost over

i want to see the pixels

Faktablad · « **Reply #278 on:** December 23, 2007, 05:23:01 am »

PS This is my advanced gift to all you guys:

ndchristie · « **Reply #279 on:** December 23, 2007, 05:30:39 am »

ugh...such a long day...i'll finish AAing things in the morning

can't wait to see what others came up with.

marilii · « **Reply #280 on:** December 23, 2007, 10:03:09 am »

Phew! Finally finished and sent mine. For a moment there, I was panicking, thinking I'd bitten off more than I could chew

Good luck to those still finishing their pieces!

pixelGnome · « **Reply #281 on:** December 23, 2007, 10:42:44 am »

Well mine's in. I'm afraid still a WIP though as I've been without a computer most of this week. I'll keep you posted and u/l the finished version asap.

Merry pixmas

Terley · « **Reply #282 on:** December 23, 2007, 12:44:30 pm »

eck I don't think that'd stand, the point is so its ready for christmas, you had the deadline so handing it in late is 1. unfair on your partner (who may of worked their ars of for their gift to someone else) and 2. gives the mods (Is it Panda organising this) more work. But I suppose you should hand in atleast something for the deadline because its deffo the thought that counts, people here are on all levels of artistic skill and im sure whether finished or not your partner would be greatful

I will not give any extra time to those that don't come up with a gift because:
1. You signed up knowing the deadline was on the 23rd of December.
2. You can send in WIPs.
3. It is not my job to listen to all the excuses and whatever crap and take care of it for an extended time, just because you didn't plan your time properly.
4. You had 23 days. If you couldn't spare a couple of hours on this, then you shouldn't have signed up at all.

I won't give any second chances. Seeing how it went last year, it is worthless.
Anyone without a gift by the last time I check the PMs (which will be on the 24th's morning, as stated above), will be banned straight away.

ndchristie · « **Reply #284 on:** December 23, 2007, 02:44:49 pm »

there's no point extending the deadline:

anyone who misses the deadline is probably
1 - unaware of it because they barely check the forums anymore (and won't be around any time in the next week to notice) - this was me last year and I didn't know until January that I'd even been banned
2 - unaware of it because they never cared (and aren't going to in the next week)
3 - willfully ignoring it because they are douchebags (and are still going to be next week)

griffy6 · « **Reply #285 on:** December 23, 2007, 03:37:17 pm »

Mine was pretty easy, thank god. My gift-ee didn't have many likes to start with.

snake · « **Reply #286 on:** December 23, 2007, 03:46:14 pm »

Ok, mine is in.

Managed to pull it together at least. Man I'm tired.... Looking forward to seeing what the rest of you've cooked up.

Feron · « **Reply #287 on:** December 23, 2007, 04:03:29 pm »

25 people still to submit something, although by the sounds of it a lot of people are probably finishing off today.

The B.O.B. · « **Reply #288 on:** December 23, 2007, 04:26:34 pm »

Hopefully...otherwise, this place would be lot more lonelier, with some fairly great artists out of the picture.

Sabata · « **Reply #289 on:** December 23, 2007, 05:02:55 pm »

Fiuuuu, finally send mine… I had so much ideas about it, but most of them were not Christmas stuff… so I ended up whit “that thing”

AdamAtomic · « **Reply #290 on:** December 23, 2007, 05:29:53 pm »

Submitted my WIP so I can avoid the banhammer at least

work and life ensured that I would not get the full 2 or 3 straight days of worktime on this that I wanted, so I scaled it back a bit...hopefully my giftee still likes it!!

Dusty · « **Reply #291 on:** December 23, 2007, 06:54:51 pm »

I sent mine in a couple days ago... but am extremely disappointed by it. I'm in another one of my slumps with art and couldn't come up with ANYTHING good, especially with what I was given to work with, so I just pixelled anything and sent it in before the deadline. Maybe I'll redo it one day for the poor sap.

Opacus · « **Reply #292 on:** December 23, 2007, 07:08:05 pm »

Gonna try to finish it tonight but might be a W.i.p. Not sure if I can make it in time.

Panda · « **Reply #293 on:** December 23, 2007, 07:14:21 pm »

AROUND 12 ~ 14 HOURS LEFT

And uhmm... around 18 people still have to send me their gifts.
Tick tack... tick tack...

dum dum dum

Frankiesmileshow · « **Reply #294 on:** December 23, 2007, 07:20:51 pm »

use a photo of the glorious robot santa himself as an incentive. HE CAN BE QUITE PERSUASIVE

where we supposed to get a pm by robot santa saying thanks for giving your gift? I thought I sent it but now im not sure.

Nah, I only replied to those PMs with questions.
In the first post there is a list will all the participants. If your name has a robot santa icon next to it, then we got your gift.

cave · « **Reply #298 on:** December 23, 2007, 09:36:59 pm »

I can't wait to see all the gifts! Seems like everybody is really putting their best efforts this year!

Souly · « **Reply #299 on:** December 23, 2007, 10:13:48 pm »

Finally done.
Sending PM now.
