So, Good News, Bad News...

Good news: This weeks winners are --
@Quasar, who earned a win this week for Critical Mass!
@Platinum Dynamite, who gets Honorable Mention for Captain Star Ranger!

Bad news: As a technical difficulty, the screenshots were not taken. I had the wrong key mapped, since I used a new character other than Costume Contest Man to shoot the pics.  (I have a keyboard that requires a Fn keypress to type Print Screen, so I map it to something else.)

You two, check your messages for possible fixes.

Tune In Later This Week: when our theme will be "Spring Is Coming!"  Bring your favorite flora and fauna to Atlas Park, as in plant and animal heroes and villains!  OR bring in your "Dr. Doolittle/Poison Ivy" character who is a master of either!

The first of these three will be "Rejected Villains!"  Got an aspiring bad guy that not even The Family took into their ranks?  A spider foe that Arachnos told "don't call us, we'll call you"?  How about a Martial Artist that the Tsoo thought was inadequate for their tattoo ink?  Bring them to Atlas Park on Thursday, April 6th!

This is the second of a three week series of themes leading up to the 13th Anniversary Celebration (https://www.cohtitan.com/forum/index.php?topic=12496.0), coming this Friday, April 28th in Atlas Park!  As a second reminder, we will NOT be holding a contest on that week (April 27th) as the Celebration will have a number of them.
