For the last few months I've been watching the site and I've seen what I use to love about it. The "friendly feel" seems to be back. When I left about 6 years ago, things had gotten kind of nasty. Folks fighting, arguing, generally just plain mean.
But that seems to have been a passing phase and the helpful, good folks seem to have taken the helm once again...
For the past couple of months I've been saying to myself "as soon as get a good shot for a challenge I'll sign back up"... I think it doesn't work that way. If I'm a member I'll work for the shot... So, in the tradition of the Irish immigrants, I'm throwing my hat over the wall, leaving myself no choice but to follow it...
Or be hatless...
We'll see what happens... |

This is quite true, at least for me. I can't seem to accomplish much of anything without a deadline, and sitting on the shore waiting for the ideal conditions is no way to go.
For extra motivation, learning, support and community, check out the side challenges. |

You know... there's like a butt-load of gangs at this site. This one gang kept wanting me to join because I'm pretty good with a bo-staff.
So, we're pretty much friends by now, right?
So, you got my back and everything, right?

Oh, yeah, Slippy's still here. Sorry about that. You might want to come back in another 6 years, maybe we can drive him off by then.

At DPChallenge, we use the buddy system. No more flying solo. You need somebody watching your back at all times. Second off, you're gonna learn to discipline your image. You think I got where I am today because I dressed like Yo_Spiff over here?

I'll agree, a fat guy in lycra is an intimidating sight, but no, Slippy does not dress like me at all.

Yo_Spiff, don't be jealous that I've been chatting online with babes all day. Besides, we both know I'm training to be a cage fighter.

They let you cage fight with a chainsaw? |

In the words of Admiral Ackbar (who coincidentally, looks a lot like a bass): It's a trap!

Must be someone else doing that. I prefer chicken. Might be Grog, though. I think I saw him over in the freestudy chasing down a steer with a spear.

He's with his uncle in Alaska, hunting wolverines.

That explains it.
