The Smiley Challenge

[Kuciwalker]

I challenge anyone to, while actively posting in the OT, not use a SINGLE SMILEY in any of their posts. Not to indicate sarcasm, or humor, or contempt. The prize is... umm... a congrats thread.

(this includes using message icons when posting a thread)

Current contenders:

Comrade Tassadar (started 6-23-03, ends 6-30-03)
Tuberski (started 6-23-03, ends 6-30-03)

You're no fun!

For how long do you want us to do this? I mean, if the challenge is to "never use smilies again, and I will give you a congrats thread at the end of time," then count me out.

Also, if we use smilies without the picture showing up (like ) then are we disqualified?

IIRC, you never use smilies anyway.

Sure I do. I just try to avoid abusing them like "some people." Y'know, like "conservatives are evil. I'm easily offended. "

[Imran Siddiqui]

I wonder who that is

Spoiler:

DRAT!

I forgot to mention that. A week.

Okay, I'll step up to the challenge

Sounds like I can do it

EDIT: ehh ****.

Sorry, I already did a variation on that joke.

10 points from mrmitchell... that's right!
