Congratulations!
You have gone from the Sweet 16 to the Elite 8!
Your next challenge will continue the Halloween type theme: http://pulsobeat.com/tag/greg-lentz/ The 7 Deadly Sins.
We want you to create a NEW tweet that references one or more of the 7 deadly sins: Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Sloth, Wrath, Envy, and Pride
You have all done well, and will now have the entire weekend to think this one over as your submission is due Monday (10/10) by 1:38 p.m. PT.
BEST OF LUCK!
Congratulations on making to the Sweet 16!
The competition keeps getting tougher.
Your prompt for this round is to write a new tweet focusing on one of the most underappreciated settings in modern life: churchward THE SHOWER. From the Obscure Gentlemen’s fondness for the shower scene in Psycho, to 12 For A Penny debating whether it’s normal to pleasure oneself on a dry shower floor like some ape, a lot of things can happen in the shower. The macabre, the sexy, and the just plain too weird to talk about. So let’s talk about it: tweet about showering, shower-related experiences, or showers of any kind. Go!
Must be NEW tweets and turned in by 10/7 1:38PM PT
Good Hunting!
Congratulations! You made it to round 2.
Now 32 contestants will battle to make it to the sweet 16.
Your next theme will be: REVENGE
We want you two write a tweet about revenge. Anything you want as long as it is about revenge.
Forbidden: References to revenge being a dish best served cold
NEW tweets must be turned into @obscuregent by 10/5 at 1:38PM PT
Good hunting!!!
