What The Hell Is That?

Day 1,244, 21:15 • Published in USA USA • by Darkskye




Hi there. It's Dark in here... glad you can join me.

For the past several months, my favorite pastime in eRep was to make fun contests and activities for other people. It all started when I felt a bit bored as a Platoon Commander and wanted to do something to increase my platoon's activity. Well that became a little hobby, something which I like to do during my free time, and eventually grew to a bigger audience when I became one of the founding members of the Department of Pie, the Mobile Infantry's unofficial fun and games organization.

Well, with the recent changes in the Media Module, I decided it may be also be fun to finally create a newspaper, and here it is! I hope you will VOTE and then SUBSCRIBE this newspaper, and I intend to keep it fun and involving to all of my subscribers.



Hmmm, well, this paper will be focused on giving you quick entertainment, either through a fun contest, an activity, or a short story or comic strip. I am sure, from time to time, there might be a quick rant about things that I find important, like changes to the rules, or some important news. But I will do my best to keep it short and entertaining as well.

Although the motif of the newspaper is dry and Dark, giving the appearance of being a serious newspaper, it is just done to appease me, the author, but will have a totally different focus. I am sure I will change the motif soon, when I tire of the word-play joke (thanks to Christopher Eller who always makes that comment when I enter IRC lol).



Good. Let's start with a contest I just finished somewhere else, called
What the Hell Is That (aka: Guess The Picture)

We select 5 objects and zoom it in really close to make it hard to guess what it is.... The more correct answers you get, the bigger the prize! You have until Wednesday, 5PM eRep time to post your answers!

Don't ruin the game for others, do NOT post your answers or guesses here. Instead, to keep it secret from other contestants, please log your answers in this google sheet:
