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.

I was so relieved when I put Light down. Never have to read those books again. Unless, in about 2 years when I choose too.
UGH WHY DID
JUST TOO MANY DEAD PEOPLE OKAY

Not really here, by the way;P

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

*arrives* *reads Ieni's comment* *laughs*

I must be a terrible person, beacuse I was just like okay to all the deaths. It didn't really affect me. I was rather sad about *** and ***, but the others I was just like okay.

I don't feel emotion very well unless there's something said or written to make me feel emotion, and it was written emotionlessly, so I was just okay. :P

I didn't think Light was that great, tbh. :)
Too emotionless.
(I'm also sad about . . . *pauses* About the barrier coming down/not coming down - if you've read the book you'll know which it does. I wanted it to be the other way.)

Lovely I am guarenteed a terrible afternoon. Shopping I hate it because my mother doesnt just go to what we need she drags me to every place under the sun. Even though we may only need to go to a store we go to 10 others for crap she doesnt need and then she wonders why i hate going. News flash i am bored wheneer i go shopping anything i want to get is always last and we never get to it so im always dragged along for nothing. Getting a bathing suit takes me only an hour but if mom takes me i add 3hrs of boredom staring at stuff that isnt what i even want

@Favis: I'm happy for the first time in FOREVER, so good i guess :)

@Malicha: I KNOW

Oh and guess what

It's springtime moving into summer, and it's supposed to be hot. And it was really hot for a little while. And then I was really sad that winter was gone (I LOVE LOVE LOVE WINTER and the memories associated with it), so I prayed that it would come back.

IT GOT ALL THE WAY BACK DOWN TO NINE DEGREES THIS WEEK :DDDDDDDD

AND IT'S RAINING :DDDDDDD

And about Cher Lloyd, this song is the first and only Cher Lloyd I've listened to, so I have no idea. You?

Oh my God I met my first crush at this competition one time and we didn't know where the other lived or anything and I never saw him for three months. Then I prayed for me to see him again and the next day he showed up at my door with my grandmother because they just happened to meet each other in the street and he remembered me and wanted to see me.

AND THEN THAT HAPPENED AGAIN TWO YEARS LATER

Woah. I just realised, there is an asterisk key on my keyboard.
I mean, a key specifically for the asterisk. I've been using Shift + eight for my entire life. I never noticed the asterisk key.

Anybody else?
It's just me, isn't it? xD

But, like, how could I not notice. IT'S RIGHT THERE. LIKE "*". *.
I don't have to go *, because I can just go *, and it's probably actually easier, too.

I still didn't finish that JOY drawing("Version 1.2: Now with more skill"). It's been building up at a very slow rate over the past few days...
So now English revision will wait because my drawing needs must be satisfied. Especially after my unfortunate time-lord attempt, earlier, which makes the Doctor look, like, ten years old. :P

CAN I SEE IT???

@Ieni: Year ten is not so bad. Until you get to this time of the year, because exams are scary. :/
I get really anxious about exams, but I never do the revision before hand, because I just can't force myself to get on with it, and then it gets to the day before and I'm so terrified. Which is pretty much me now. (except aboout a day and a half before my first exam, atm) ._.

I hate how lacking in, like, ecological validity exams are.
It's like "English in everyday life", and then you'll be told to write a review or an article or a speech about any given topic, in no more than half an hour, without any allowance for research or preparation. How is that everyday life? I don't get it.
Who writes a review of a book or an album of music, without having that book, or notes or other pieces of research around it to make reference to?
Who writes a leaflet aimed to persuade people to give up smoking, without having researched specific statistics, effects, or associated problems with the topic?
It does not make sense. T.T

(Sorry for random ranting, I just D: )
#ChaseForBook9

Mary Contrary said...

Aw, Bye Skyril! See you soon, hopefully! *hugs*

I take time to come up with ideas, and I have to plan->plan->more-plan before I can write anything with a specific purpose, like a speech or a letter or whatever it might be. That takes me about half an hour in itself, and then I'd still have to write it up, with already no time left. Otherwise it just comes down as my thoughts are - scrambled and disorganised. I just dislike it. :P

So, in conclusion, exams are stupid. And stuff. :P

Gotta go again. *hugs anybody who lieks hugs* :3

May/may not be back. Bye!

Sorry I vanished!

argh... have to re-start laptop, brb

Snow said...

who wants to hear/see the parody i wrote??
it's for i knew you were trouble:



Once upon a time, a few mistakes ago
I was in my mine, he’d got me alone
He’d found me, he’d found me
He’d found me-e-e-e-e
I guess he had a bow and I guess I shot back
And when I fell hard, he shot me in the back
He killed me, he killed me
He killed me-e-e-e-e


And he's long gone
When I re-spawned
And I realise, he thought I was dead

Cause I knew it was cobble when I mined it
So shame on me now, blew me to dungeons I never seen
The archer shot me down
Oh I knew it was cobble when I mined it
So shame on me now, blew me to dungeons I never seen
Now I'm lying with the zombies all around

Oh, oh, cobble, cobble, cobble
Oh, oh, cobble, cobble, cobble

No apologies, he'll never see your crown
Pretend they don't know that he's the reason why
Your king now, your king now
Your king no-o-o-o-ow
i’d heard he had a base, right out in the sea,
i knew Notch was about, guess thats who saved me
from drowning, from drowning
from drowning-ing-ing-ing-ing

And he was long gone
When he shot at me
And I realized, he was a zombie

Cause I knew it was cobble when I mined it
So shame on me now, blew me to dungeons I never seen
The archer shot me down
Oh I knew it was cobble when I mined it
So shame on me now, blew me to dungeons I never seen
Now I'm lying with the zombies all around

Oh, oh, cobble, cobble, cobble
Oh, oh, cobble, cobble, cobble 



I lost all my gear when you pushed me in
How could you do that to me, my slimes, or anyone
we lost everything, Yeah


Cause I knew it was cobble when I mine it
So shame on me now, blew me to dungeons I never seen
The archer shot me down
Oh I knew it was cobble when I mined it
So shame on me now, blew me to dungeons I never seen
Now I'm lying with the zombies all around

Oh, oh, cobble, cobble, cobble
Oh, oh, cobble, cobble, cobble

I knew it was cobble when I mined it
cobble, cobble, cobble
 I knew it was cobble when I mined it
cobble, cobble, cobble

[Yawns]

Anybody mind if I comment until I get first?

I forget how much spamming it takes to be impolite... :-/

One...two...three comments (counting this one)? Is that going to offend anyone? [hopes not]

#ChaseForBook9

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

*not counting this one

Big difference there!

So not counting that past one, but counting this one here. [nods]

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

Oh, what the heck. Since no one is around, I'll go for it. If someone else comes and takes first instead, that's cool!

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

To me, perfect is people who make the world around them better, making others feel better about themselves, making communities like this happy and fun and somewhere I never want to leave. Every single one of you contributes to this wonderful place we know as Blogland, fitting my definition of perfect. I dedicate this page to all of you: Bloglandians past, who helped make Blogland the awesome place it is, who helped shape it, even if I haven't actually met most of them; Bloglandians present, who make me want to come here, and keep coming back; Bloglandians future, who will also be a part of this amazing community, I look forward to meeting you if I'm still around then. [hugs everyone] Each of you has contributed so much to this marvelous place, you're all perfect, okay? You turn smiles into grins, crying into laughter, dark days into brighter. You all make me feel better about myself, you all make others happy, you're all perfect, the way I see it.

Mara, you've made me smile and laugh at unexpected times, simply because I walked past a One Direction toothbrush in the store. I'm kind of eh about 1D, I prefer more classical voice/new age/folk music type stuff (in general, that is. LM is the obvious exception, and there are others), but when you come onto Blogland, so excited about something to do with 1D, it's contagious, it makes me happy and excited, too. Besides that, you created ARCK, and yesterday you sent out the email, telling us all that we're perfect. You've contributed much to this wonderful place simply by being here, and in my opinion, that makes you perfect. 

[sings] You are perfect, to me.

[sounds like a frog]

Oh, by the way, I also dedicate this page to the art of not being sick. [nods]

Lucy, you're also perfect. You have a habit of making me feel better when I'm upset, and you're almost always there to help bring Bloglandians back together when they're falling apart. When you left for a while, it was really...strange. Not good strange, sort of empty strange. Oh, by the way, I'm working on a rainbow art project, it reminds me of you and Skittles. :-) I'll send you a picture when it's done. Back to the point, you're perfect, and you've helped not only me, but other people.

Em, I know you feel like you haven't done much lately, but every time Death or Mara or someone else was feeling upset, ready to leave Blogland, even ready to die, you prevented that, when the rest of us were helpless. You've held this place together, even when you were being torn apart by Chase's death. You're stronger and braver than you give yourself credit for. I wish you the best of luck with Dublin Daes, and the Blogland in Minecraft is really cool so far.

Chase, I didn't know you, didn't even really talk to you, but I do know that all of Blogland was affected by your death, or simply by hearing your and Em's story. Even though you're no longer with us, you're still indirectly bringing Blogland together with the #ChaseForBook9 tag, and you meant a lot to the people who knew you. Even though I didn't, I still feel I can say that you're perfect, and I'm sure that the Bloglandians who met you agree.

Chase was one of the best of everyone I argued with him once but he was cool.

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

Chase sounds like an awesome person from everything I've heard about him.

Rest in peace.

CONTINUATION OF DEDICATION

Death, I know your life has been far less than perfect but you aren't. I'm really sorry about your uncle, and your classmates failing to recognize your awesomeness, and the fact that your sister has drifted away from you. I really hope you find a light among all those shadows soon. You're really awesome, even if you deny it. I really enjoyed staying up late talking to you about the pizza on a stick (space needle!), Loreena McKennitt, and all that general crazy/evil stuff.

Jubi, you're crazy, insane and pretty 04012324 AWESOME. You were one of my first friends in Blogland, and whenever you come on, I always end up smiling/laughing/doing something weird/all of the above. It's been ridiculously fun being dinosaurs with you, singing TMBG songs, composing those sugar-high candy pirate poems, anything involving Clemy, and annoying Coco.

Ari, you're amazing. Your MC chapters are just WOW, including the ones I loved/hated, and you've been really inspirational. When you come on as Croatoan, it's fun, especially Blogland Truth or Dare with the evil mass-murderer/psychopath. You're not just awesome as Coco, though, Ari is wonderful and inspirational and very good at helping people.

Star, you're so awesome! You're very random and fun and I enjoy talking to you. Also, you inspired the whole name-project idea. And Hunter and Ez are really cool.

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

Chase died back in January...

#ChaseForBook9

Snow said...

OH MEH GOSHES!!! I love the ded so far :D

Calidae Dark said...

Umm.

Now I feel really awful.

Like, really awfully embarrassed.

How did I not now this? How was it not even mentioned when I was around?

I'm going to go hide in the corner feeling awful now.

Snow said...

... :( while i never knew chase, i still feel sad when people talk about him being dead or dying or whatnot

Snow said...

WAIT!!! NO!! STOP!! no one hides in corners while snow is around!!! * awkward hugs dark*

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

Thanks, Snow. [hugs]

It's not your fault, Calidae. [hugs] I'm sorry... I didn't mean to make you feel upset.

#ChaseForBook9

Calidae Dark said...

Thanks, I think...

Was it his Cancer?

Calidae Dark said...

Or something else

Uilliam Kinsella said...

I think it was cancer.
I woke up one morning checked my emails and Death had told me.
He was supposed to have another three months.

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

Yeah, it was worse than they thought it was.

#ChaseForBook9

Calidae Dark said...

Wow. Okay.

Thats really really tragic. Em and Chase's story in general is tragic.

Hi by the way Eden, havent seen you online in a while.

Snow said...

:'(... oh... i feel like crying now...

Uilliam Kinsella said...

Hey Cali.

Arra, I keep forgetting you're pretty new around here, you're just so...Blogland-y, always hugging, offering desserts (in your case, brownies, and being so 11331403211024 AWESOME!

Ember, you rock. It's been awesome being on your team, whether the team is the news organization, MAHU, or the revolution thing you randomly recruited me for in the MC. You're really awesome, okay?

You're all in the name-project, though, at the very least. :-) Even with 50 or so names, though, I'm still missing a ridiculous number of Bloglandians. :-/
