Since round 36 started on Friday, presumably, it will end on Friday. However, since round 37 is going to begin on Sunday, will that round end on the following Sunday since round 38 will also begin on Sunday?
And if all that is the case… then if you want to still have a full week for each round, then round 38 will have to end on a Sunday. That would mean that when round 39 starts on the first Friday in January, round 38 will still be in progress, so then you would have 2 rounds going on at the same time.
If that is the case, then if one were to wait until the start of round 39 to make their choice for round 38, they could make two choices at the same time…

Does that work?[/quote]

Always playing the angles, aren’t you, Hornet? Let me think on that. I’ll get back to you today.

You never got back to me :([/quote]

RE: your question.

As each round in the past has ended when the next round begins, round 38 ends Friday, 1/7/2011 at 8:59 PM ET/5:59 PM PT and round 39 begins at 9:00 PM ET/6:00 PM PT on 1/7/2011. There will be no overlap. It’s like Daylight Savings Time. You got two extra days between 12/24/2010 and 12/26/2010, so you lose those days on 1/7/2011.

Oh, and as the Benevolent Dictator of the Claim Your Bishoujo/Bishounen game, I hereby declare this day to be “Today”.

I always knew I hated daylight savings time.

[size=4]Round 37[/size]

Nowaki Kusama - Junjou Romantica

[size=4]Secret Santa Replacement Round[/size]

Hiroki Kamijou - Junjou Romanitca

For my first pick of the new year, I’ve decided to continue my Hidamari Sketch theme and choose Miyako.

Wow Newshawk, 9:00 exactly, I’m impressed with your speed. Lucky for you, I wasn’t around at exactly 9pm… Lucky for me, that wasn’t who I was going for.

Round 38

Sae from Hidamari Sketch

[strike][/strike] Got one!

And now I have to go watch the rest of the episode I got the image from…

Somehow, those two statements seem to contradict each other, Hornet…

You mean you didn’t like this one?

I thought it was kawaii, and I also love that it looks like a Polaroid print.[/quote]

I pick Akane Mishima from Kampfer.

I would like to take the time to point out that in 90% of my claims, the image width and height are always near or around a width to height ratio of 1.7777… to 1 though that picture is great, I wouldn’t ever use it because it isn’t the right shape. Just another one of those things that bothers me if it isn’t right.

In all honesty, I don’t recall even seeing that picture when I was using google. Though, I tend to ignore anything that isn’t the right shape for posting a claim…

I think you’re just grumpy because I got both your avatar and your signature. :evil:

Nope, I knew you were going to pick Miyako this round, and I knew you were going to do it as soon as the round started to keep me from doing so (a 4 year old could have predicted that much). So no, I’m not that angry at all… I was just saying that almost all of my claim pictures are the same shape. You can check for yourself if you don’t believe me. Though if thinking that will help you get to sleep tonight, then by all means… :wink:

Boys er, grown men and their bishie related squabbling… so cute.

It’s harder to resist the blue hair on a guy…
