Most balloon twister forums have an on-going sculpture challenge. Maybe fun to try here since so many people have dedicated themselves to improving their ballooning of late.

Here's how it works. A member selects something he or she would like to see made into a balloon sculpture and calls out the challenge. Providing a photo may help in some instances. It's them up to the community to answer the challenge and post photos of their creations.

Make your challenges as simple or complex as you like!

In general, it's good to allow a few days for people to post their balloon creations before issueing the next challenge.

---------------------------

Challenge #1 - This leaves room for balloon artists to be creative, but still has an allowance to more simple balloons for those just starting out.

Jolly, are we going to make this like a "tag" game where the person issuing the challenge tags someone to make it? Or just whoever wants to give it a go & the first one to post issues the next challenge? OR - everyone who wants to post their creation & the issuer chooses the best representation & the chosen one will send out the next challenge.

If we make it a Tag, then I say PM the person tagged because not everyone may check this particular thread every day. And if we do make it a "Tag" Game, then anyone who wishes to participate or wishes NOT to be tagged needs to post. Just a thought.

Either way, sounds fun! Count me in on the challenge!!

A game of tag sounds fun enough - so there it is!

WOO HOO!!! So Tag it is. I say we PM the person tagged to give them a heads up. Then they visit the thread to see what the challenge is & either accept or decline (If you decline, you better have a GOOD reason or we'll all throw pies & shoot the fizzy water at you!!) :pie::seltzer: hehe. Once you complete the challenge & post then you tag someone else with a challenge. If the tagged person hasn't responded in say 3 days with a yes or a picture, then tag someone else. Agreed?

OK - who's in??
