Conversation About The Match (locked)

Who’s going to win? Who’s winning? Who won? What were they thinking? What are you thinking?

Alls I know is that Tii shirt is hawt.

I’m stoked for this match because I’m already a fan of both these guys. In fact, I own clothing designed by both of them. Unfortunately, I’ll be traveling to Mississippi during the live competetion. When I do finally get to see it, I’ll have to wait 15 minutes between volleys, to recreate the tension…

I’m excited to see this match, it’s looking to be different from the others. If it goes as billed, the combination between photography and design should make for the best match yet.

So pumped for this match. Last week was great – are there going to be any silly competitions, like the tube-sockoff?

That was great :)

All I know is Chris has his game face on. Or at least his Hooter’s shirt on.

Tyrun is talking about this competition within the competition from last week…

And yes, we’ll do something this week too. Stand by.

The tubesock-off was hilarity!

Hopefully, I will be able to participate in this week’s competition as well (and it’s within my budget of “found items” as before).

PS: Anyone know why my Gravatar isn’t working? Ever sense Automattic acquired them, it doesn’t show up for me.

@Tamashii: You might have to log into their system and reapply it, I had to do that with mine.

Word! I finally got the match unblocked by our intrepid security team! Let the slack-a-thon begin!
I am really excited about this match – I hope photography plays a large role here.

Here’s today’s Forum Competition. Print out one of the volleys from today’s match on a sheet of paper and tape it up in an interesting location. Inside, outside, anywhere you like. Take a snapshot of it and post a link to that photo here in this forums during the match. Bonus points if you use the shot to illustrate a point you’re making about the competition.

We’ll choose five winners who will each receive a pack of Field Notes Brand notebooks
and an awesome, live Pixies CD from The Show

@Coudal: Quick question. How do we find out who wins our little competions within competitions?

We’ll post last week’s winner in the forum during today’s match. Same goes for the remixers. We’ll also post them in the Layer Tennis blog.

So bummed about missing last week’s match but looking forward to the opening serve this go around.

WTG Coudal for the especially interesting matchups. ::polite applause:: Looking forward to seeing some pretty terrif photography this week.

The 2:00-3:00 (EST) hour is the longest ever. Come quickly, LT!

More on the Forum Competition. Chris has tossed a fabulous Tii Shirt from Wire&Twine and Naz contributes The Street Artists Series from El Boton into the prize packages.

Heh, I like the video introducing this week’s match. Looking forward to it!

That’s Bryan from CP we’ll be doing a new one for each week…

Awesome competition idea – and I’m glad AZ got the match unblocked! Yay! No more scrambling to upload each volley :)

I can’t wait to see how this one turns out.

Oh and Tamashii – you totally rocked last competition with your insane amount of tennis balls and popcorn, etc. Had me cracking up :)

Well I have to say that I enjoyed last weeks so much that I joined the forum. Finally now all my macho friends can be confused when I give them play by plays on layer tennis. I cant wait

Did someone say something about Jason Santa Marie being in today’s match? Or am I off my rocker?

@Plasticmind: I think that’s next week. Today is the Bear vs the Bicyclist.

@Dawson: Ya – looks like I had to re-up my image and reset it for Gravatar to propagate it. Thanks!

And thanks Tyrun for the kudos!

Whoo Hooo, can’t wait for this match to start!
