@Kidsandliz
@ACraigL Just occurred to me - shouldn’t Murderlotl have been holding an ax?
@Kyeh Ha! I had the same thought, but then I was like, I should keep it Axolotl. But I was worried it was getting away from the Jason thing and now I overthought it and I didn’t want to think about it anymore.
So, yes.
@ACraigL Okay - sorry!
@Kyeh No sorrys needed!
This is not really my kind of derby!
But I have one if you’d like to vote:

@jasneko
I love your shirt for this derby. I think it came out perfect.
@Star2236 @kyeh @kidsandliz Thanks all!
Voted
I skipped last week but I’m back for the “foodie” derby. Beer is food, yes? YES.

@jasneko I like #2 & #3, but I don’t want to eat a cat!
@jasneko @Kyeh Same. I’m allergic.
@ACraigL @Kyeh Neither do I! Even though it’s in the design, it’s so far from my mind that when a friend of mine who saw the design started speculating about the taste of cat, I was like “Ewww how dare you put that in my mind, I have never even imagined it!” I’m just putting a cute, live cat in a sandwich to look cute, it should go no further
Just submitted 3 designs if you’d like to vote - much thanks!

@jasneko Nice job this week!
@ACraigL @jasneko The top one has great colors.
@jasneko OMG, I love them all!!!
@ACraigL @sammydog01 @Kyeh Thanks all! Not too many votes, but nice to see your comments!
@sammydog01 - thank you, I was happy with how it turned out! I kept going back and forth between royal blue, eggplant, navy and black for the shirt color. Since it hasn’t gotten many votes so far, I’m slightly considering swapping out the color and removing the old one. I’m a bit partial to eggplant:D
@ACraigL @jasneko @sammydog01
I can’t understand how some of them have more votes than yours. A lot of them just seem so boring to me!
@jasneko @Kyeh @sammydog01 the voter preferences have long been a mystery. There seems be a number of new artists that have a lot of “friends” that vote well for them, but don’t ever buy the designs. Today’s feature is a good example… first place but few sales It’s a little disheartening.
@narfcake may have an opinion on this as well.
@ACraigL @jasneko @Kyeh @narfcake I’ve heard of bluey but is it that big a thing? Am I just behind on kids shows? So many shirts.
@jasneko @Kyeh @narfcake @sammydog01 It’s a mystery to me as well, but it’s apparently super-popular with kids and has adult humor for the parents to appreciate that goes over the heads of the little ones. Kinda like Spongebob did. But I haven’t seen it personally.
@ACraigL @jasneko @Kyeh @sammydog01
Are we looking at the same shirt? Today’s shirt is Cookie Sound, and Erion has been printing for a while now. By the sales breakdown, I’m estimating 101 sales thus so far.
I’ve got two new designs for the “friends and gatherings” derby this week. Hope you like 'em!

@ACraigL I remember the kids’ table. It was in the front hall.
@ACraigL Another one I want everyone to vote for, so I can get it! Worked with DJ Escher! I have some alumns to harass…
@sammydog01 I had to sit there even when I had my own kids!
@ACraigL HEY, you didn’t tell us you got first place!!! Congratulations!
https://shirt.woot.com/offers/kids-table-alumni
@Kyeh I DIDN’T KNOW!
The sale launched at 1am my time. I was fast asleep. Also, yay!
@ACraigL Oh! So they don’t inform you before it goes up?
@ybmuG, did you see it?
@ACraigL @Kyeh I had NOT!
/giphy very excited
Off to order! Congrats!
@Kyeh @ybmuG They do not. Well, with an email when it launches, but same deal, 1am.
@ACraigL @ybmuG Oh!
One more if you’d like to vote, didn’t get to finish last night - thank you!

Cold weather derby! People still like penguins, right?
Surrounded by Ice Holes

@ACraigL Everyone likes penguins.
@ACraigL Voted. Sorry I missed two weeks worth of people’s shirts to vote. Oops.

Hello, meant to post this last night - here are my 3 so far if you’d like to vote! Will see if I finish my 4th… as always thanks for your support

@jasneko All so adorable! I really love the bears !
@jasneko I love the kitty one. That’s about right for cats and tree decorations.
You need to do one of a decorated tree and a cat in the tree with it’s face showing as a “decoration”.
@Kidsandliz I did have this one at mediocritee last winter!
@jasneko @Kidsandliz
That’s super cute!
@jasnek That’s cute. I had been thinking more of only the face, with those big open eyes you do on some of your cats (thinking of the photo I posted here several years ago of my friend’s cat who was in her tree with just his face showing). And the lights in your cat caught in the lights (and more of that style of art as well), a few ornaments on the tree. And a star on top that is lit. Umm yeah I realize I am telling the artist what to do and how to do it. Opps .
PS I voted also.
@Kidsandliz Sounds very cute!

@sammydog01 Nice!
@Kyeh @sammydog01 Thanks for the mention.
It’s weird, that sale doesn’t seem too popular. I think maybe they didn’t advertise it (yet?).
@ACraigL @Kyeh @sammydog01 Yes it seems to be a pretty low-key sale. For cool people. ^__^’
Thanks for voting folks! “Introducing Sarcasm” took 3rd place and is on sale today! Hoping everyone has a safe, happy and health Thanksgiving.

Hey all, this one amazingly has stayed in the fog and it’s the last day of the derby, so if you haven’t voted for it yet, would appreciate if you would! Much thanks!

@jasneko @sammydog01 Not every shirt has to have cats.
(Currently wearing Vintaged here.)
@narfcake @sammydog01 My cat shirt last time missed getting 3rd place by 5 votes, oof!
Narf - ahh, I loved making that shirt, love drawing music (and retro players) related designs (if you can’t tell!
This week’s derby is shirts for the new year. Hope you like 'em (and vote even if you don’t)

catshirt!
@ACraigL @narfcake Got my vote !
@Kyeh @narfcake My catshirts are infrequent so Narf makes a big deal about them
@ACraigL @narfcake I think it’s the first from you that I’ve seen!
@Kyeh @narfcake
I have a small selection… a few even won!

@ACraigL @narfcake Okay - I have seen “Purrfect Workout.” That got first place!
@ACraigL @Kyeh @narfcake And it’s a freaking adorable cat too.

Joint Replacement
https://shirt.woot.com/derby/entry/132917/joint-replacement
@ACraigL They’re both clever,
but I really like the snake oil one!
@ACraigL @Kyeh I’ll probably grab the “joint replacement” one, in part because I don’t need any joint replacements, and I also don’t partake of the other kind. (Never did. The whole 1960s scene went on all around me without ever including me in it. I do not regret this at all.)

@jasneko I love the yellow one!
@Kyeh Thank you! I changed the background color a few times and then had to rearrange the birds when I finally decided on yellow (because previously the yellow birds were poking above the trees), which is why I submitted so late. Glad you like it!
Last derby of the year! Man, this goes so fast. Please vote and happy holidays to all!

POPSOCKETS! SPROCKETS! DAVY CROCKETT! AWESOME!
@jasneko Voted! Hoping the feast one makes it, especially.
Interesting - I saw that one design got rejected because it says Peanuts - yet they allow the use of the likenesses all the time?! I hate that, it’s such a ripoff, and too easy; often the joke isn’t clever and they’re just relying on the popularity of Peanuts characters.
@jasneko @Kyeh
Quite tempted by the walrus mee-self.
@Kyeh Thank you! The feast one took a long time
I don’t understand woot and their choices at all . When I first started with woot these kinds of designs were totally forbidden and rejected - especially any character that basically looks exactly the same as the original.
@jasneko I just saw on the news that black and white Mickey Mouse is now in the public domain, so I wonder if he’ll start showing up. A lot of these images are still very much copyrighted, though, so I don’t get it.
Did the line between Meh and Woot disappear over the years?
@pakopako My suspicion is that one of the lines vanished abruptly when the noncompete ran out. The other one is nay so much a line as a permeable squiggle of smoke that allows each to politely ignore the other. There’s no still-active hard connection visible from outside, and probably no real one hiding in the bushes either, but the uncanny resemblance makes it clear that there’s a figurative Fird Birfel involved with both who has been a very busy fellow over the years.
But I very much doubt that Irk II will feature a cape, surgical tubing in his arms, and a motion sensitive chip that says “You know what bothers me?” A puppet version would probably sell well, and might spawn a spate of videos that could require a lot of disclaimers. (I’d certainly hope so, anyway.)
OTOH, a spring-loaded Glen leaping forth from a can would extend the hilarity rather a lot.
Hey all, I’m thinking ahead to the remix derby coming up and with the lunar new year approaching - if you would like, let me know which you think looks better - cranberry or red - thanks!
@jasneko Oooo, nice design!
I like them both.
@Kyeh hehe thanks… I like them both too, hence why I’m not sure which to go with!
@jasneko Sorry for not being more helpful!
