Not bothered either way but are gifs not allowable then?

alan nagsworth

What the hell is happening I don't understand. That was your shot right?

ZoyzaSorris

Ha love it! I mean obviously absolutely horrific. Hedgehog's still got til first thing tomorrow to turn it into a montage version or something though no?

selectivememory

No, of course gifs aren't allowed!

The rules refer to shots as "pictures", and gifs aren't pictures.

I think it would be an unfair advantage if they were allowed. Plenty of people (like me for instance) with a basic grasp of how to mess about with images can win matches in Wimblewrong if they have a decent idea and execute it competently. But allowing gifs would put the really talented ones at an even bigger advantage than they already have.

Yeah, of course, if he wants to.

Absolutely, we went through gif-gate many years ago and it was ruled that they shouldn't be allowed back then.

Oh sorry I didn't see it was a gif, was browsing on my phone and it hasn't loaded! It is fucking ace though.

Ok if that's a settled rule, but I was going to mention that one of the definitions of "picture" is "a cinema film".

hedgehog90

edited my post to include a still image. Shall I delete the gif? Seems a shame.

greencalx

I think more people need to not be able to unsee it. Maybe post it again after the match is over.

I think that's fairest. It's a great gif, but I don't think it should be accompanying the shot whilst voting is ongoing.

True. But luckily SMBH was there to back me up!

I didn't see it before the edit, so I choose to believe that the gif in question can best be described using the word 'pulsating'.

ZoyzaSorris

Im presuming I have until when the still image was updated rather than from when the gif was posted? haven't had much time so hoping to get in a last min speech


ZoyzaSorris

cool im on it after dinner :) last minute effort i meant, speech was autocorrect or something

extreme rush job but at least got something up :)

selectivememory

Really funny match. Could go either way on this tbh, but I think I'll go with Zoyza for the superb Garrison parody.

Zoyza for the Garrison jobby. Very much enjoyed Hedge's efforts though.
