Yah, such is annoying.

. Dont really need to post a photo to name/state the theme-subject-topic.

I believe it was something like “brokeback motorcycle” to contrast his “cat” magnet winning photo from last week.

Just kidding, Rob. You know I love you. Oh, not that way. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

let me know if you need help with pictures.

None of the pics contain any clue that is the "first" anything, well, other than the photos appearing to be old and/or the person appearing to being lot younger.

Nope, i stated my GS650 photo was the first Suzuki i had ever owned

Yes, such was stated by many in thier comments, but not contained/conveyed much in the photos themselves (other than photo might appear to be old and/or person appears to be younger).

My picture too. I said was my first bike (and car and truck and dog and house), but no way for anybody to determine/derive that from looking at the picture. Other than it seemed like an old picture, and I had color in my hair/mustashe and was before I got a mocykle jacket.

ATTENTION ALL PLAYERS! IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!

During the forum update, we lost all posts in this thread after midnight eastern time, last Friday the 11th.
This included a vote or two, the tally, the winner, the theme, and the winner's photo.

Other issues include some players having issues with the interface, uploading photos, and we haven't figured out multi-quote posts yet.
Since it is already mid-week, I suggest we put the game hold until Saturday the 19th.

Hopefully give us time to figure things out, and get some bugs fixed.
And, give us all next week to put up our photos.

Here is the tally from last Saturday morning:

Two votes each, dorkburger and Redman
Four votes, dpep

And with five votes Rob S.

Rob, hopefully by Saturday we can get your theme and photo back up. Contact someone, (Rich? Redman? Me?) if you need assistance.

If anyone has any additional thoughts, or ideas, please share.

Two Comments:

- Glad that someone is attending to this.

- Just to confirm: You are suggesting suspending this weeks game ("Broke-"whatever), not last week ("First")

- I have limited availabilty the remainder of this week and next week.

(okay, that is three comments)

Correct Dave.
We'll start with Rob's theme, "It'll buff out." Or whatever it was.
Rob actually has the photo he used in his GRS album. So we should be able to get it posted.

I recall the theme as being "That'll buff out" or close; it referred to crashed or damaged motorcycles and the picture was of the his crashed Sportster before it went to the insurance company.

I recall such a picture from back when it happened (quite memerable).....

Looking at Robs 70sHondaCat picture... and then Some snooping on that Flickr.......

Hey, Rob, This it? (I would think so, unless you have another pic stored elesewhere.)

Hey, Bob, Seems like we have a good recallection of the stated theme-category and something of a sample picture. But, yah, would be better to hear it from last week winner RobS.

Simple enough to just make this a two week contest. Don't take the vote until Friday, March 25th.

That is exactly the plan, Don.
We'll put Rob's photo and theme back up this Saturday, and folks will have their normal week to post photos.
Hopefully by then, most of the kinks will be worked out of the new forum.

Yes, I understand. My point was that if someone wanted to put up a picture on the theme before Saturday there would be no reason they couldn't.

Agreed, they could. I thought waiting would give everyone some time to work out the kinks of the new forum, hope for some bug fixes, and maybe figure out the multi-quote option. But, if they can't wait until Saturday, we will figure it out.

And I sure would like to get the "official" theme from Rob, (Rob S. are you out there? We got the photo, just need your words.)

Either way, we will vote on Friday the 25th of March....
