Micronational Pumpkin 2010! Malarbor!

Post by dr-spangle »

It's the time of year again where I carve out a pumpkin in the shape of some micronational entity or logo to prove how little of a life I actually have :D Being in university most certainly doesn't cause me to have more of a life as you shall soon see

This year choosing was hard, Map done, MCS logo done, not much left I could think of...

But then a message arrived from the heavens of what I should carve, a message with terrible terrible threats...
Malarbor spoke to me and then I knew I must carve him, lest my organs be torn out and strewn across micras, while my soul is bloodlinked to a small rock to be stamped into the soil and slowly feel the tectonic shift that I never got around to designing.

Also, ari suggested it and it seemed like it would be a rather decent idea that can actually be mistaken as a normal halloween pumpkin by non-micronationalists.

So rather than endure all that I figured I had better get carving bloody quick.
And here it is!

For those of you who are my friend on facebook, or a friend of a friend, or anyone, i don't know what the privacy settings are on this album, here's the link:

Opinions: It's an opinion that this is good and fun
Joking: I'm joking about malarbor speaking to me, also about it being faith
Emotion: :thumbsup :evil
Spelling & Grammar: Doubtful that it's 100%.

Now... That's just mean, because you know I'll have to try and do that now, and it will be really hard and will take a decent amount of blu tack :P Also, it's 3am, and I want to sleep, but now I want to do that...


Maybe another day, I found it's good to do blu tack modelling in lectures, it prevents me falling into a slight slumber, which is beneficial for my note taking and reduces my feelings of awkwardness (I sit on the front row.)

Factuality: It is 3am here, it would be 4am, but the clocks went back
Opinions: Want is an opinion, as is awkwardness, and the difficulty of the project
Joking: I wish I was joking about falling into a slight slumber in lectures, but I'm not :/
Emotion: :) and :surprise at this idea...
Spelling & Grammar: I would like to take a stab and say 100%.

I've seen some other nice carved pumpkins posted to FB too, one by a talented artist. Yours are as good as that person's, so kudos to you. Now if only next October we could have the Batavian lion carved into a pumpkin...

I consider that most unsatisfactory.
