TAG, Your it. A Fun Game for All!

Fantastic Punky

Is this thread stalled again?

Wow Punky, I'm moving my picnic inside

i'm happy to have a real beginners go if we need another person to tag

I'd love to join in.

I tagged cbfaceart, she said she'd do the pic nic theme,I think she was supposed to have a shot before others posted the same theme. (It does look great though, Punky.) Are you there CB? What happens now, should we give CB another theme? Don't know....

I was under the impression that anyone could jump in whenever they wanted. Besides, if people were to wait for the tagged person to post first all the time, then the tagged person would post it, tag someone else and change the theme - it's a vicious cycle. By that logic, Metina's idea seems a bit null and void to me. I was just trying to bump the thread and get it going again since it had become a bit of a dead zone. Sorry if I offended anyone.

i think the point is that someone gets tagged and given a theme and once they paint the theme, then they tag someone else. one person at a time. like tag

Well, if you read back a bit, Metina made this suggestion:

Metina wrote:Congrats to you guys for keeping this going! I haven't checked in too much and you guys are handling it beautifully.

My only recommendation would be for those tagged to try and at least acknowledge the tag. I know we are all super busy so let's all try to acknowledge on one end and try and be patient on the other end.

In the mean time, if anyone else wants to try the tag theme, feel free to post. Just let the actually person who was tagged paint and then retag. This might keep things going a little better.

Let me know what you think.

So, I took that to mean that anyone could post to the current theme at anytime... so I did. But if it's going to be a problem I won't... again, sorry, I didn't mean to step on any toes.

my bad. didn't see that. i just read the intial instructions. I started a new thread though. let me know what you think.

punky, you did not offend me, i agree this thread is dying out. We used to see pics left and right now it is a month before we see anything new.

I spent all day yesterday in a room full of people whose biggest problems arise because of misunderstanding and communication. We all hear or read the same thing and have our own perceptions.
I had understood Metina's quote that Punky re-posted as the person tagged would post first and then anyone could paint that theme or any of the themes during a stall. I didn't mean to offend just wondered what happens next. For me the fun of the tag was finally getting a crack at something no one had tried. It challenged me to think on a completely clear slate and I think it would be cool to see what others thought of the theme after I'd done it.
Like I said, communication and perception lead to such differences...

well, I'm offended because punky's work is so good. I mean...way to make us all look bad right?

I'm not offended at all. I was just soooooo happy to see a pic-nic. I don't know but maybe if the one that has been tagged can't do it due to real life busy-ness perhaps it should be re-tagged to someone else that's checking this topic out regularily. I know that I check it every time I log in & I log in daily yes I'm addicted to this forum almost as much as I'm addicted to face painting What do you think Metina, everyone?

yep mandi i am with you. i check on here at least once a day. i luv the TAG game but it seems people have lost interest.
does this mean the picnic theme is still on the table ? is the tagged person still going to paint or is it being passed on?

Soooo..... What's going on with this thread? Who's tag is it? Do we know when the challenge will be done? I hate to say it, but I think this game is expiriencing a slow but sure death...

NooooooooOOooooo!! I want to get good enough to try it! Someone tag someone!!!

CBFaceArt was the person tagged.

I just messaged CBfaceart, if she's not going to do it I'll tag someone new asap.

I think we need an updated "want a turn and haven't had one list". There may have only been one or 2 left, but with the pause let's do an update.
Maybe we should also update with a "done 1 want another turn list". I think part of the fun is quick thinking, it doesn't have to be a van gohg and it's more fun when there is fast turnover.
What do you folks think?

I vote for fast turnover!

I think we should make it free for all! Anyone that has time and interest in the theme, go for it. The person that is tagged just picks the next theme and next person to be tagged. It's become so big, it's hard to know who is even active. Limit it to a week period perhaps.

That sounds cool. Or maybe three days?

Alright.... I'm getting this ball rolling!
TAG RE-BOOT!
OK, the theme of the week is...
The ocean.... I tag Chicneek(but anyone can participate)!!!

Wow, it took that long for us to find out she won't /doesn't have time to do it? It almost sounds as if we should have the tagged acknowledge the tag and provide updates as to when they'll get it done... or else pass it on to someone else... just so we don't have this thread go into cardiac arrest again. Is this a good idea or am I just blowing hot air? What do you all think?
