Spirit Lake: The Winner

Wow.

Okay, that was one of the most fun competitions I've run so far. The Exquisite Corpse competition is shaping up brilliantly— the standard on display is just mind-boggling— but the Spirit Lake contest has just been fun from start to finish.

So here's what I did.

I collected all of the names of the people who entered, both here on this Blog and on Twitter, and I divided them into bundles. I made sure that each and every one had a valid reason for why they should be a video game character. Some of these reasons made sense. Some were just odd. Some were VERY odd. There are people, both Minions and Ronda Rousey fans, who are just unsettling. I'm not entirely sure how their brains work— if indeed their brains work at all.    

To give you a hint of what I've been dealing with, here are a few reasons you people gave. "Because of my neurax worms." "Because I like pie." "Because I'm short.""Because I've watched Robot Wars.""Because I have a psychic elephant.""Because I have a need for speed.""Because I'm not very smart (which will make the player feel better about themselves).""Because I am Dr Who.""Because I sometimes think that I'm the only human being in the world. The rest of you are all aliens.""I would make an awesome video game character because I already AM an awesome video game character.""Because I am actually Lakota (the Spirit Lake people are my Dakota relatives)."

So I divided you all up, and those of you who entered multiple times got your names put into as many groups as possible. From each of these groups, a winner was chosen. The winners were then put into a hat.

(Not an ACTUAL hat, since I don't own one, but a METAPHORICAL hat.)

(Okay, fine, I wrote all your names on a sheet of paper and I let my cat walk on it, and the closest one to where her tail touched down was the winner.)

And sooooo... without further ado... the winner is...

Willow Kowalski!

Yayyyyyyy Willow! The only thing I know about Willow is that she's five years old (so, er, she can wait a few years before she starts reading my books) and she's a Ronda fan... It's a lovely prize, and I can't think of anyone it'd make happier.

ARGH...
It didn't post my comment. T.T

Basically I was saying, "Did they disincline to aquiesce with my request?" means that the speaker is asking whether they went down without a fight.

Aquiesce means to reluctantly give in without arguing....

I noticed the comment.
I couldn't help....

About what are you folks talking?

Sapphire Iota (S/ Cam) said...

No, he wasn't well enough to go on Blogland by the time I came on the scene. I'm quite a recent Bloglandian- 7th January.

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

@Saph
Ah, I didn't know him well either. I'm not sure he came on much. :/ I know Emerald reads SP, but I'm not sure Chase did....

I'm Jubilance Glee / Occasional Haiku-er / And a dinosaur said...

I know that he came on a couple times...
But I didn't know him that well :(

Personally, I didn't know him well enough to post that at the end of every single message.
Especially since he didn't read SP.
I appreciate Em's loss, but I don't think putting him in a book series he didn't like makes much sense....

Derek's a very happy mother of... several... litters -_-.

So... the crowd goes silent? I suppose you two, Saph and Jubi, don't know what to say about my Chase comment.
Either that, or you've been pulled away for any number of a thousand reasons [hopefully it's not aliens. I hate aliens. Except for the Doctor, who doesn't count... ANYWAY]. Fear not! You need not reply, and if you agree with me, no one's going to scold you for stopping [or if they do, than shrug it off ~shrugs~] and if you would rather stick with the crowd and keep posting it, I probably won't bother you. :P

Now you know my opinion. ~shrugs~.

Where were we? Kittens named Derek?
I also named a pitch black kitten Zoe, after a particular character from a particular tv show neither of you have probaly seen... Any takers?

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

THERE you are Saph!
Or were...

BYE!
~hugs~
~scolds llama~

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

And yes, Derek is DEFINITELY a mother.

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

Has anyone read Runemarks?

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

I'm reading it now, and it is quite good.

I just got this other book, though, of stories collected by Niel Gaimen. I'm seriously looking forward to it :D

@Kal
Well... lol... I'm close, but not THEEE first. Joe was closer than I, I think.
I'm still happy I found out about it close to the beginning. It's been fun... and strange... watching Blogland grow, and then change, and then grow and change some more. :P

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

Hmm... what could be reasonable conversation material to fill up the spaces to comment 2400?

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

Oh, Kal, have you seen Two Weeks Notice?

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

I LOVE that movie.

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

There are a lot of a movies I like, though. xD

And animes, although I haven't been able to watch an anime for a lloooonnnnggg time. :/
D.Gray-man was, I think, the last one I watched, and I don't think I finished it... I'm going to look on ebay and see for what price the seasons are selling.

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

She is definitely a good actress!
Just about every conversation in that movie had me cracking up...
Like, [I'm paraphrasing. I can't remmember it EXACTLY :p] "Can we get you anything?"
"Milk duds would be nice."
"...We don't have any. I'll have someone send out for one."
"Nonsense!... If you're sending out for some, get a whole box."

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

Well, season one [parts 1 and 2] is 18.99 at one seller.

Oh, wait, I just remembered... Anime is always better in Japanese with English subs... I wonder whether these are English or Japanese...

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

Wow... when I put Japanese on it, the prices skyrocketed. -_-
Just my luck.
Well, I might have to look into this another time. I have to go shortly :/

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

Dude, I miss playing Fire Emblem. It was a strategy game, but since my DS was stolen a few months ago, I haven't been able to play any of the versions.
I LOVE that game.
I wonder how much the present day DS-what-cha-ma-call-'ems are. Let's see... Gamestop...

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

LOL, Kallista!
~hugs tightly~

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

Ok, $200
Not more than I expected. ~sigh~
I wonder if it can play SP games... Two of the Fire Emblems were for the SP.

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

THIS IS MY DEDICATION. IT STARTS OUT WITH A WEIRD WRITTEN THINGY, BUT THE DED IS IN THERE, DON'T WORRY.

Dozens of tiny sparks of light flit in and out of a patch of night sky. Some have been there for years, some only for days, some come often, some seldom, some have not even met, and yet they all have much in common. When one starts to fall from the sky, the others are there guiding her/him back up with their flickers of energy. Some are dim, faint glows, others bright and cheerful, some big, some small, all in a variety of different colors, shapes, personalities. 
In the middle of it all, a deep blue-gray spark, one of the smaller ones, feels herself falling, her light flickering dimmer and dimmer as gusts of wind drag her down. She covers it with a lampshade, she hides it, not as well as she'd like to, but well enough. And yet, every time she starts to slip, one or more of the other sparks is there, making her brighter, happier than she would be anywhere else. 
A bright orange light whizzes around in circles at a ridiculous speed, and the blue-gray light can't help but feel lighter, happier by seeing her friend so cheerful. 
Another blue light, this one more of a bluer blue, something of a sky blue, cheerfully floats past, muttering to itself, something about an asylum for the disturbed. And the directions to get there sound rather contradictory, come on, get up, get down...inside the fire. The blue-gray light smiles slightly, understanding the mumbo-jumbo better than the narrator.
A violet spark bounces past, humming and fangirling and tacklehugging everyone, including the blue-gray light, who smiles and hugs back, humming along to the song: "spread your wings, my little butterfly..."
Other times when the blue-gray light starts to drift back towards the ground, she's been helped by a rainbow light that glows more than she realizes, a deep purple flicker, a more medium purple light that has been gone for some time but is still very much a part of this beautiful place, a bright green spark, a dark blue/black flickering that seems menacing and evil at first, but has helped many, including the blue-gray light; another rainbow spark, this one smaller in size but just as bright, as well as many others, too many to name.
There have been times when she's been selfish, or lashed out in anger, and yet they still accept her, still help her up when she needs it, even if she doesn't say. They're perfect, every one of them, even those that deny it.

I dedicate this page to all of you, all the Bloglandians ever, old and new, even the ones I haven't met. You've helped me more than I tell you most times. To all those I mentioned as sparks/lights and those I didn't, to those who are here often and those who haven't been for some time. 

Also to #ChaseForBook9. I did read back in the comments. Skyril, I respect your opinion, and I understand the reasoning behind what you said, but I'm still doing the tag. I'm really sorry if it upsets you.

I hope it is.
I always seem to get ill on days when I'm not at school. *grumbles*

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

Hunter started it! They were just having a conversation yesterday and then Hunter just pulled this pot of Vaseline out his pocket and started eating it and I was just like w h a t. I have no idea why he did that. Although today I decided it was flavoured Vaseline. And then Ez tried some and she was like that's well nice and then she went and tried it on toast. *Nialldles*

I think my mind may be being random because of me being slightly ill. It's kind of been imagining stuff and then I've been going wait, WHAT? over it for the past couple of days, now I look back . . . :/

I feel all hot-shivery thing and I have a sore throat and a cold, so I reckon that's slightly ill. It's the hot-shivery thing that makes me think yeah, I'm slightly ill.

You're worried for MY sanity? /I/ haven't been eating Vaseline! Be worried for EZ'S sanity! We all know Hunter's insane anyway, so that isn't worth worrying about. XD

So how has your day been?

Anonymous said...

Pretty good :) I just finished a sketch of Derek.

I hope that's not considered creepy, but I don't have that much expertise in the area of skeleton-drawing.

Mistical Future said...

Cool!

I actually find drawing Skulduggery's head to be reactively easy!
It's just u bunch of strait lines!

Mary Contrary said...

Hello.

I'll be distant. Working on another Justin Pierre portrait (...Pierretrait? xD), and then I'll be doing revision and such. :)

But HI.

Anonymous said...

Night! :)

Mary Contrary said...

I WAS going to do just the latter, but then I found this unfinished sketch, without a date scrawled on it, and the paper was all creased and a little torn (probably why I stopped drawing it the last time), and I was like, *insert evil laugh of drawing completion here* :P ^^

Hi Dau! How're you doing? :)

Hi Misty!:) Bye Misty!:(

Star, Mara, Nix, if you ever see this among the sea of comments, I am NOT ignoring your emails. They disappeared. AGAIN. I can get them back though. It's just going to take a little while.

Pierretrait finished.
(Pierretrait just became an official term, btw. :P)
Dating it was awkward, though, because I didn't quite know what to put, and ended up with 'unknown date', and then 'Date of completion' as today's date. :P

REvision time now, so distant-er. :/

Hi Ieni! :) How're you? ~

Wow, you guys still haven't reached 2400? I would have thought the Australians and New Zealand... ers, and all those crazy people who stay up til two and three in the morning would have filled it up.

:P


Eve the ROCK said...

I could half hear my Mum talking but only just registered fully that she was talking about me until the end of the conversation. She's either concerned about my behaviour recently, or she's just bitching about me again. Can't tell which one...

Gonna soo my brother and his wife today. They're going to the A-kon in Dallas Texas, and since they're usually living in Colorado and Texas is mucho closer-o, we drove six hours and they drive an extra two to go out to eat.

To long indeed! (It's always been too long, no? xD)

How're you?

@Flora: I'm doing good, thanks! Well, maybe 2017 was a /slight/ exaggeration, then. :P I hope to draw Derek some time within the next month, then. (Is that better?)

HEYYYYYYYYYYY!

*is at my grandparents'*

Msd.

I want to draw but my mystery project is at home. D:

And I have felt tip all over my hands, which my mum told me off for as I'n going to this manicure place with my friend, and I pointed out that I'M not getting a manicure, but apparebtly even so you don't go into a place like that with stuff all over your hands. (?)

It's not my fault. When I draw with felt tips, I end up with felt tip on my hands. It's when I take the lid off and put it on. :P

Eve the ROCK said...

Ohhhhh, right. I've seen that site before. To be honest, reviews don't do much good for me. They upset me and then start screwing with my mind. :/

So I've been terrified of Goodreads and a small section of iTunes for as long as I can remember!

@Eve

The A-kon is short for "Anime Convention," but it isn't just anime fans. There's people from tv shows and video games comic books. Have you ever watched Firefly? Last year, there was a guy dressed up as Malcolm Reynolds. There's steampunk and fan art and posters of everything- including Doctor Who and Sherlock. Google Dallas A-kon or something, and it should give a bunch of pictures.

We ordered Thai food, and the Thai guy came up, and when I opened the door, he was like, "This place... It's like Halloween!"

It was awesome. >.<

@Taia: Yup, that's better! :D I've got loads of time now (BECAUSE I'VE FINISHED EXAMS WHHAAAA?!?!?! :O ) so I'll probably start today and finish tomorrow or next week (my parents are going to be here over the weekend :) ). If it goes well maybe I'll give it to Derek when I see him in Leeds? I normally keep my drawings and put them up on my wall/wardrobe, but having a picture of him up there would be weird - like his eyes were following me around my room O.o

So A-kon is pretty much like Comicon?

Mary Contrary said...

Hi Star! *hugs* :)
I have the same problem (felt-tip-hands, not so much the manicure-place part :P) Could you keep your sleeves over your hands or something? (I do that anyway, but, y'know.)
And, draw something that's not your jepic-mystery-project? :)

#ChaseForBook9

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

@Flora
Either. :]
And yes, definitely! Doesn't everyone like cake? :3

@Eve
Ah, well, you don't HAVE to read the reviews. I only do that once in a while, but there's an excellent synopsis on books, which I almost always read before buying a book.

Ooooooooooh... That sounds like so much fun! I wish I could go to something like that. Are you going to A-kon too?

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

@Jubi

So am I :D
Do you have a favorite character??
I have a hard time deciding xD
I love Malcolm, though... so probably him... But I also love River, "I can kill you with my brain."

Skyril A.K.A the Vociferous Chatterer, Loyal Forever and Always, The Ever-Present, the Pluviophile said...

@Eve

No :/
I wish I could, but we can't this year.
And it IS. A LOT. of fun. :D
You should see how epicly everyone dresses!
