Everybody Wins/Goes to Hell for this Round!

[triadruid]

Well, voting was chaotic, dispersed, and generally inconclusive for our bonus round regarding featherynscale's DNR tattoo. But since I'm running this sideshow, I'll give out the awards here:

• leiandra's "Deliciously Nibbleable Rack" and orcjohn's "Do Not Remove" both got three votes, but leiandra gets the Speed Bonus for being the first submission!
  
• Queen's Prize goes to 8elements's "Decidedly Near Ribcage", which got K's seal of approval. :)
  
• Narcissus' Self-Congratulatory Award goes to oreibasia who may not ever have played before, and hence not realized she wasn't supposed to vote for her own "Desires Nipple Rub". However arkhamrefugee agreed with her, so it's not as if the idea was wholly without merit (the man knows something about breasts, I believe). ;)
  
• kenllama and celtic_elk take the Separated At Birth prize, having *both* submitted "Damn Nice Rack", just with different punctuation. Great minds think alike, or what? lexpendragon agreed, and voted for them, so they each get 1/2 point apiece for #4. :P
  
• The Funny Yet True award goes to #71...err, 17, "Respects Needy Dyslexics" by lexpendragon; saffronhare and (unsurprisingly) druidevo voted for it, and matchgirl42 gave it two LOLs up.
  
• zerself's entry deserves to be read in its entirety, as she put some actual thought into how to make a Do Not Resuscitate tattoo workable without violating the Princess Bride rules about perfect breasts. Her actual submission, "Do i Need a Reason?", while violating the strictest rules for Acrophobia, did collect a vote from matchgirl, and nearly from me.
  
• Finally, lexpendragon deserves the You Spent Way Too Much Time Thinking About This, Didn't You? award for having one real entry, seven runners-up, and a graphic! He actually received four votes total amongst those, but divided by 8, that's not very much...

Excellently well-played, folks.

four eights of a point tie me with a Llama and an Elk. That leaves be back with the animals.

Still, I got to GIMP the rack (the one one featherynscale, not on the celtic_elk,) so I still think I'm the real winner.

No, I didn't know. I won't participate again.

Relax! As I tried to state, this round was PURELY for fun. If it had been an official' round like I used to run in my journal, I'd have been very clear that people couldn't vote for themselves (and could only vote once, and could only submit one entry, and...)

Sorry. I was having an overly sensitive morning. I actually laughed about it when I thought about it later.

No no! Play with us again!

If you insist ;)

I wanted to put the research somewhere...

Interesting article on the concept...

For what it's worth, there are some changes going down in resuscitation that I think will come to play with the negative tone of this article

Another grumpy article, with some interesting medical tattoo options

Personally, if I saw a tattoo, I'd assume the person had the paperwork to back it and I'd go looking for it. However, honoring anything on the basis of a tattoo alone? Nope...can't say as that's a good idea, unfortunately.

However, the creepiest medical tattoo award still goes to this guy...

Yeah, I figured it wasn't really viable, but thanks for hunting all of that down.

Our advice? "Never die in a Red State."
