New Fawkinnae Photo Contest

[Fawkinnae]

Its what many a person has said at times of something shocking, funny, good, bad, surprising....Go to the "Outdoor Links" and check out Fawkinnae.  Then you'll know the history and everything.

Catwoman, did you get the photobucket copy and paste thingy workin yet?  Would love to see some of your great hunting photos.  Im sure they would make me say "FAWKINNAE!!!"   

Grute

Nice job Grute Man. Thanks.
I'm pretty sure the word is part of the DNA.

I'll try to put together a little diagram to further illustrate the many uses the word has.

[Fawkinnae]

This handy diagram may be useful whenever you are unsure as to the correct usage of the word "Fawkinnae". In fact it might be useful to print this out and glue it to the inside of your tackle box or gun case, or the dash of your ATV. That way you'll always have a convenient and handy reference. (Please note there are many more applications of the word but this will get you started).

 ::hittingself::  OK I am going to try this again!!  Some days you just have to love computers  ::hittingself::  Try #4

I would like to enter my photo in the contest.  On Tuesday night Camp Y sisters were out prowling for hot bartenders in Hackensack and look what we stumbled upon ::drunks::

Our very own oppoutunity to enter the Fawkinnae Contest!!! 

Also we would love to know who owns the back window this sticker is attached to, we believe we noticed a large print on the window that may have belonged to Bubbles ::rockon::

[Fawkinnae]

I continue to be in awe of the talent on this site.
Thanks for your entry.

[Spinach]

What kind of truck was that Jewel? I'm sure we can figure out who it was.

[Spinach]

Doug.... That diagram picture scares me! I do have visions of making money on "Fawkinnae" bobbleheads though! I can see it now, we'll have a booth setup at the Ice Fishing show in December, with MNO gear and Fawkinnae bobbleheads hanging from the table, I bet they would sell for $20 a piece.  :ROTFLMAO: The CampY girls can model them at the booth.

[CampYJewel]

From what I remember it was a S-10 or a ranger with a little bit of rust????  There are a few things from the night I don't seem to remember so.....................but it was parked in the parking lot of a bar on Co Rd 5 past Webb lake.  It was there when we pulled in and gone when we crawled out ::drunks::

Glad to know I am not the only one who was a bit unerved by the diagram!!!  Kindof reminded me of multiplicity and clones.  Though I do like the idea of the bobble heads.  Wait I think us Camp Y girls should have our own line of bobble heads with other bobbeling things ::cheers::

[Fawkinnae]

Sorry to be the spreader of alarming diagrams.

Pat, I do like your thinking on the Fawkinnae bobblehead but I think the CampY version has way more potential. In fact I'd like to place my order right now.

[CampYJewel]

You will have to decide which Camp Y Girl bobble head doll you would like that way we can get the right part to bobble : )  Just let us know and we will do our best to fill all orders ::cheers::

Jewel

[Spinach]

Well then.... I'll place my order now too. Do I have to choose which one or can you just surprise me?

[rchaze60]

yeah I want one if the right parts bobble  :rock: :rock: :rock: :rock:

[Fawkinnae]

Keep those photos coming sportsfans. By the way - I still haven't heard from Ted. He's probably trying to do something very elaborate. What a guy.

[Fawkinnae]

What the stroke's going on with the Fawkinnae photo contest? It seems to have lost some momentum. Either that or maybe you guys are deep in thought. Or maybe the heat has everyone paralyzed. That's probably it. Of course there is nothing like a deadline to get things done. I suppose I better come up with one.

I just thought of a good idea for a photo thinking about all the horseflys on the dock on Rainy Lake last weekend. I'll be back shortly... with Fawkinnae inspiration.

[Mayfly]

Thanks for reminding me! I will get to work.........

Greetings Sports Fans.
The contest will officially close at the end of the day on Tuesday September 4 (midnight). That carries us through Labor Day weekend with one extra day to pull together your best photos. The significance of that day as we all know is... well significant. The end of the summer fishing season and the beginning of the fall hunting and fishing season. I will select a group of 3 judges from MNO to make the final selections on the best Fawkinnae pictures. There is a good chance the photos will or will not be displayed at the Walker Art Center.

Just remember whatever you do DON'T let "Dogstyler" win. I'll have to listen to his yapping for years to come.

May the best three MNO's win!

[Fawkinnae]

Don't forget the monster contest ends after this weekend (I still haven't heard from Ted by the way).  ::

I will need some judges to determine the winning submissions - probably Spinach and Mayflower but a curveball would be good too. Also I don't know who the photographers are for some of the photos submitted so please identify yourselves. (Maybe Ted took that picture of Spinach dressed as an alien and I didn't realize it.

Oh and by the way I hope everyone has an exceptional weekend.

[Spinach]

How many entries do you have Doug?

Oh.... "George" aka Cristina or "bumper girl' was the photographer for the alien photo.

[Fawkinnae]

How many entries do you have Doug?

Oh.... "George" aka Cristina or "bumper girl' was the photographer for the alien photo.

So far I'm seeing 5 entries
1. + 2. Two pictures of Scott Pugh - author unknown
3. Spinach alien by "George" aka Cristina or "bumper girl"
4. Picture of a bartender hunter by CampyYJewel.
5. Picture of Doctor Bob submitted by Smallmouthguide

Good shots but I will say the numbers are a little weak for a 1500 member website.

[Fawkinnae]

I will be announcing the winners as soon as I can get together with Dr. Spinach.
(And as soon as I can get my legs untangled.)

[The General]

Fawkinnae,

I just signed up a couple days ago.  I know it will be to late for the contest, but I will send you a cool photo and post it here after I get back from vacation on Oct 14.

[Fawkinnae]

General - welcome aboard the mighty MNO.

Can't wait to see what you've got for me.
Thanks.

[Fawkinnae]

After a considerable amount of debate the judges are now ready to announce the winners of the Fawkinnae photo contest.

3rd place goes to "Spinach Alien" by George, aka Cristina or "bumper girl"
I had always secretly suspected that Spinach might be an alien - but George, with her sensitive portrait of Spinach captures him at his most alien.
Outstanding work. Congratulations George.

2nd place goes to "Dr. Bob's Basswood Beauty" by Smallmouthguide. If you look closely at Lee's composition you will notice the work or a true artist. Lee saw an opportunity to replace the illustrated walleye on Dr. Bob's t-shirt with the real thing while leaving the letters - AE visible on his t-shirt, as if to say, "Walleye, AE (Fawkinnae)"
A timeless photo of a timeless man and his fish. Congratulations Lee.

1st Place goes to CampyYJewel for her extraordinary photo of a real live bartender hunter who just happened to be passing by a Fawkinnae bumpersticker. Of course all great photos are great because the photographer noticed something special was about to happen and had the foresight to aim her camera at the subject at just the right moment and capture that moment forever for all to see.

On behalf of the entire staff here at the Fawkinnae World Headquarters I want to congratulate all of the winners and thank everyone who submitted a photo.

Winners please contact me by sending me a pm.
I need an address where I can send your shirt, a shirt size and which shirt you'd like.

Thanks again.
Doug
