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!

    I see your point. Well in case of my absence (for whatever reason), you could manually create a vote post of your own I suppose. It’s not a lot of work if you keep two windows open side-by-side. Content wise all I did was paste the original source in each comment with the username on top. Considering the amount of submissions we have, it’s probably just 15 minutes of work to do it by hand.
    Worst case scenario, you could default back to counting the votes in the submission post? I’ll see if I can clean up my script and share it online though, just in case someone with Python knowledge would like to use it and improve on it.

    I haven’t seen Mo0Po0 online for some time, so maybe it would also be good to assign an extra moderator for the featuring and un-featuring posts in the community? I feel like my timezone is a bit of a disadvantage.

        Yea, we’d need someone from the other side of the pond. I’m going to message the existing mods, see who’s still active and clean up the list.
        After that I’ll put up a post asking if anyone is interesting in moderating, with part of it being to help with the challenges when necessary.

        It’ll be a simple job, everyone here is always so well behaved :)
