Dialectical Dessertism: The ContestIt has long been debated just how cake and pie came to be bitter enemies (and occassional allies against other desserts).  Some say it started in the Middle Ages when butter was first used for both unequally awesome desserts.  
While others say it was when cake became a CV and the power went to her head!  
At still yet, there is the rumor that is started when pie failed his sobriety test and blamed it all on cake for keeping him out too late.
But maybe none of those are the real story.  That's where YOU come in.
What's this Contest About?
It's pretty simple.  You're going to answer a very simple question.  What is the origin of the pie/cake debacle?  How you go about doing that is completely up to you.  But since you have complete creative freedom to write history, we're expecting some very interesting (to say the least) renditions.
What's Going to be Judged?
:bulletblue: Both poetry and prose will

Emoticon Tournament:la:After months of waiting and anticipation, the "Secret Contest" I had planned is here! I bring you, the Emoticon Tournament!:la:

 
As some of you may remember, !DryBones44 hosted an epic tournament called the “Multi-Round Emoticon Drop Out Contest”. http://web.archive.org/web/20110815070308/http://drybones44.deviantart.com/journal/41567949/
 
The tournament was a blast and there were many participants! And I am going to revise it!:omg: So, here is what’s going to happen:
 
Details:
 
After all the participants are gathered, I will use random.org to match the participants up randomly. I will then select a topic, and then you and your opponent will face off and make an emote based on the theme. You will have 1 week to make the emote, and then our judges will decide the winner of each match up.
 
If you win your match, you will move on to the next round, and face off another winner
Summer Seaside ContestUs founders have been very inactive lately so to make up for it, we'll be holding an awesome contest for you guys :heart:.
Theme
:heart:Participants should submit photos/paintings/drawings related to summer, nature and water (can be ocean, sea, lake, anything).
:heart:
Deadlines and such
:heart:You can submit from this day on until 1st September :D! However it must be in this folder: http://beautifulscapes.deviantart.com/gallery/43739209 . If one fails to submit their photos there, they won't be taken into consideration. Btw, there's a limit of 5 photos per participant so only post your best work!
:heart:
Judging and prizes
:heart:Our co-founder *Calisaroa and I will be deciding, however we'll have polls through which members can vote as well. If, say, 60% of members vote Picture X which the two of us don't particularly like, he or she will get a popularity prize consisting of their works being fea
OC Summer Fun in The Sun Contest! Cash Prizes!Time to get this second contest of the year started!  The first one I held this year had a decent turn out, but I'm hoping even more people enter this one.  What can I say, I enjoy seeing the drawings people come up with for my contests.  
If you couldn't tell from the title this contest involves original characters and summer.  This will be a "draw yours and my original character" type of contest in which you show the characters enjoying summer.  Each entry must have at least one of my characters and one of your characters for it to be eligible.  Your character can be a completely original one or an OC from a popular existing universe (pokemon, naruto, bleach, etc) as long as it is your own character.  It can even be one that you make up just for this contest.  Unlike my last "yours and my oc" contest you will only have two of my OCs to choose from.  This is mostly cause they are the ones who I've really been focusing on.  For whatever reason I've never made character sheets for eithe

Muro for *Membership: February Winners

:iconnyiana-sama:

So in my last journal, I asked you to create a muro drawing with a minimum of two themes on a list that I made up, and today the random results are in!

There were a total of twenty-eight people who made muro drawings, so out of those I numbered them 1 through 28 and here are the numbers that were generated! The first, middle, and last numbers in a sequence are the people that won the one month premium membership!


FebruaryWinners by ^Nyiana-Sama


If you cannot see the numbers that came up, they were;

13 25 04 12 02 11 03 06 20 09 18 17 01 26 27 05 07 15 10 23 24 19 22 14 21 16 28 08


The first lucky deviant, with the first number in the sequence that wins a free one month premium membership with the number 13, is =Squitopus! :la: Congrats!



However, we are not done, because a second person gets to win a premium membership. The second number is drawn from the middle of the winning numbers, but if there is no clear middle number, then the number on the left closest to the middle wins. So here is the second winner!

The second lucky deviant, with the middle number of the sequence, that wins a free one month premium membership with the number 26, is ~Velverry! :la: Congrats!

And since we’re not done yet! There is a third winner! This number is picked from the final number in the winning sequence, so here is the third winner!

The third lucky deviant, with the last number in the sequence, that wins a free one month premium membership with the number 08, is =SongOfLives! :la: Congrats!


:la: Congrats to all of the winners!

:heart: So again, congrats to the three winners! Muro for *Membership is a contest that runs from the 15th though the 20th of every month, and each month there are new chances to win! So even if you did not win this time, fear not because there is always another chance!

Also a very big thank you to `Arichy who is helping to sponsor this contest’s prizes! :)

:la: Until next month! And as always, if you have an idea for a future theme for these contests, please feel free to note ^Nyiana-Sama with your ideas!
