Next UWOL Challenge?

Kevin Railsback · February 18th, 2010, 07:40 PM

Ahhh, there we go. I thought how did we get the field narrowed so far down already. :)

I think we should certainly start the challenge at like 12:01 Friday or Saturday anywhere in the world to take advantage of the upcoming weekend for sure. Or until Dale releases the theme. :)

Will look over the choices and email you my top four tonight.

Look forward to getting started on another challenge!!

Top Four emailed to you Dale!

I don’t want to put the breaks on, but this is starting to sound awfully semi-official. Has anyone run this by Meryem? I know none of us wants to do anything that might upset her, or worse, hurt her feelings. Do you think she is OK with this? Any thoughts.

Meryem Ersoz · February 19th, 2010, 08:01 AM

Thank you for the consideration, Mike, but no, I'm all for it. The key to success is making yourself irrelevant.

I always meant it when I said you don't need UWOL to make great films.

UWOL has always only ever been an agent for helping people attune to their planet in the company of like-minded people. The rules and the format are designed to aid the process and build the community, they aren't the process itself.

Good luck, friends, make something beautiful.

Mike, think of this as a UWOL 15 1/2, while we wait for Meryem to release the next very official challenge.
Most important rule is always nr 11: Have FUN!

Great! Glad to hear it. Count me (semi-officially) in!

Ryan Farnes · February 19th, 2010, 03:51 PM

I voted (late). Count me in.

Good evening,

Sorry for so slow a response: I had surprise company show up from Alberta this morning and we had pleasure of their company until 4:00.

The theme unfolded to be:

"A day in the life"

it was a definitive winner!!

We will go for the dead line of Monday March 22nd, that gives at least four weekends.

No one mentioned judging so I reckon the finishers should all select the top three and then the one with most votes is the winner, etc. Simple and fair.

Go get them friends!!!!
