VOTING HAS STARTED

You can now vote for this week’s challenge!

  • Voting will be open for at least 24 hours.
  • Whichever entry gets the most votes, wins!
  • OP will cast deciding vote in case of tie
  • Voting will end when OP declares a winner.

Prompt: 2d illustration, low angle, A girl holding up an umbrella, wearing rain boots, looking at the camera with wide surprised eyes, around her hundreds of frogs are falling from the sky, it’s raining frogs in a storm --ar 4:3 --v 6.1

Theme

Oh no, the gods are real and they are pissed!
Every single god that has ever existed has suddenly decided to take action and is busy with smiting and casting plagues for whatever petty reason they can think of.
This week’s challenge is for you to create your own vision of whatever mean, silly or ironic punishment a god might inflict on the world below.
Choose a god (or make up one of your own) and decide on a fitting form of divine punishment for whatever reason you can think of. From the classical swarms of locusts, to the weirdly specific finding-mice-in-your-mustache-if-your-name-is-Alan kind of curses.
Gods are petty and pretty much take offense to anything :)

Format

This challenge will follow a slightly different format. Everyone can submit their image to this post. At the end of the week all images will be collected and shared in a new voting post wherein people can vote on their favorite image. This will be up for at least 24 hours before a winner is made.
There are no extra points to be earned, OP will decide on a winner in case of a tie.

I hope this format will give everyone the opportunity to take their time and have an equal chance at earning votes.
It can be a one-off if this turns out to be too time consuming or impractical.

Rules

  • Follow the community’s rules above all else
  • One comment and image per user
  • Embed image directly in the post (no external link)
  • Workflow/Prompt sharing encouraged but not required (we’re all here for fun and learning)
  • OP will declare winner in case of a tie
  • The challenge runs for at least 7 days from now on
  • Down votes will not be counted
  • Voting and final scoring will be done in a separate post.

Scores

At the end of the challenge the image with the most votes, wins!
It’s that simple this time :)

The winner gets to pick the next theme. As always, have fun everyone!

    What did you think of this voting format? Does this work better or shall we go back to the old format?
    I’m happy to collect entries and votes for next week as well either way, it’s not a lot of effort now that the worst of it is handled by some rickety scripting :)

      I think there should be more days to vote. I browse once every other or once per 3 days usually; caused me to entirely miss the voting. I felt the window to submit was large and the window to vote was too small. As this ran 10 days to submit and one to vote, how about instead 7 to submit and 3 to vote? Many people are on every day, but I bet I’m not the only one who occasionally, for whatever reason, misses a day or two.

      I thought the fairness was much improved; good job.

        Yeah, reducing the submission time whlie increasing the voting would be great.

        All in all, the new voting system is an improvement in my eyes.

      I liked the voting format, but I’m the winner so I’m biased :P
