I’m sorry guys, but some things have come up that have been preventing me from doing OCD for a couple of weeks. Hopefully I can get back to it soon.

Ok, first things first, sorry there wasn’t a COTW post last week. There wasn’t a huge amount posted on the forums last week and that, coupled with a lack of time on my end, meant that I wasn’t able to do one. As for this week, well, still not a huge amount in terms of stuff that was posted (so I won’t be doing an Also Awesome), but I do have a bit of time, so here it is. And this week we are once again featuring Anarchangel, and, if I’m being honest, I’m a bit disappointed that I’m having to feature this on COTW rather than in the contest poll, because for whatever reason, double A hasn’t entered it. No idea why. The costume is, as usual, really nicely designed, a few rough joins on some of the patterns around the neck and chest area but nothing too major. The pose really gives off a floating, free vibe, enhanced by the blowing capes. And I like the lightness of the colours as well, white and gold always work well together, especially on a character with a mystical, light style.

I will be extending last weeks caption contest by one week, meaning you have until next Tuesday at 5pm Eastern time to enter. The reason for this is because the turn out for the contest was rather low.
Which brings me to the second part of this Topic. Because of apparent waning interest in the contest of late I am considering shutting it down, if not for good at least for a good looooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnggggg break. I will think of some other content to replace it with but at this point the effort I put in to searching for pictures or Gifs to put up for the contest doesn’t feel like it is worth it for the interest it seems to be generating. For that reason I think it may be time for a change. Feel Free to leave suggestion below on what you would like to see me replace the caption contests with.

It’s been rough in South Carolina with all the flooding and whatnot. I won’t have any Forgotten Freshness for awhile. Just wanted to let you guys know. I’m still alive though! Thoughts and prayers to the families from SC that have lost everything would be cool. Much love to you guys and gals!

The third element in or Classical Elements contest theme, this week I want you guys to create a character or scene that represents air. Now, the first two elements were quite straight forward, but our last two are likely not going to be as simple, so I’ll just leave it up to your interpretation on how you handle this contest. Lets just say, it’s gonna be a bit up in the air.
As per usual, no limits on entries and the contest will close at midnight Saturday (blog time). Please read the contest rules before entering, have fun and good luck.
Rules for posts, contests, and challenges that I am hosting: Original characters only, no copyrighted characters, no characters based on copyrighted characters, no characters based on RPG’s or other games. The characters must be your own design and not based on any character that might be copyrighted in any way. I have the right to delete any post that I believe crosses this line without warnings. Only post characters that you have either created for this contest specifically or you know for certain have never been entered to a contest before. If you aren’t certain, don’t enter it, because I’m not going to go back through all of the contests and check.
If you don’t know how to enter, there’s a handy little diagram below the jump.

This weeks poll was very hotly contested, which is to be expected when you have contestants who are both literally and figuratively on fire. I was actually expecting it to be a walkover for our eventual winner, but it wasn’t, he was run close for most of the week by second place and even at the end of the week all entries were covered by 25 votes, which isn’t much. We’ve had polls where there’s been 25 votes between first and second. But anyway, the flame that burned brightest in this contest was the man who I now believe has the outright highest number of wins for CDC’s, Mr AMS and his amazing entry, It comes from fire. Congrats AMS and well done to everyone who entered.

So, the end of our second two parter of the series, technically the second full episode of the series (I see what you did there BBC, full length series for half the budget, nice). So, does it keep the high standards up that the previous three episodes have?
