Congrats on completing Sinktember! I'm kind of hoping that we'll get to see each of the Sinktember posts becoming a full-length series, but I know that's going to take up way too much time and effort. And hurray to all those who made it across! Except Shetani, I know what she did wasn't explicitly disallowed in the rules but I still feel like she kind of cheated... :lol:

Great set of vignettes, I really enjoyed these. I did wonder if, maybe, we needed a second round to sort out a real winner. Perhaps the 5 successful candidates could have gone again, but carrying a 5Kg weight (10Kg in Shetani's case, she needs a bigger handicap)! No, oh well, maybe next year. Anyway, good work and thanks.

I am already moving on to other projects, so definitely no full-length series. If another event of this kind should ever happen, completing it in a single leap is definitely not going to be an option. ;)

Thanks! It was not really set up as a competition and even if we did any number of additional rounds there would have been no guarantee that there would be a clear winner. But I do have a few ideas how this could be turned into a competition. So, maybe some day.

On a side note, the Quicksand Clock has received an update. It's mostly about Miranda's sinking poses, but there are also overall improved color settings.

Gotta say, I really love the new Miranda animations, especially how she keeps looking around her as if for a way out :D

Great series, very sexy. And Shetani is such a cheat! :mrgreen: Also I can't help but notice that Tara didn't go in herself. Surely there's someone she trusts to do rescue duties while she has her turn?

Re: News from the Great Swamp! Mary is back!

Good news! Our local jogger is still alive! :D
If you thought Mary's series was over, then I have to disappoint you. It is over now though.

In other parts of the swamp, Amy has found a deep spot. So there is also a random image of her sinking. Enjoy!

Nah, the idea is that you go there and see for yourself what it will offer for the present day and time. Just check in occasionally or on holidays and see what's there.

If you really want to see all the content, you can go through the trouble of manipulating your system's date/time (the QS clock is based on your local time, not the server time).
