I always say this, but I love it when the tiles really flow together. Great job joining GM's tile, Hilary. All-in-all, very interesting use of color. Interesting to note how Cook gave GeekMan the muted colors that carried through the remaining pieces.

Thank you, Gabriel. This corpse looks like it's suffering from multiple personalities. The top two are great, and I think the bottom two work well together, but as a whole, it seems like there should be one more in the middle joining the two. I like how my bat wings echo GM's leaves, but I'm so shocked that on the left were umbrellas! I was totally expecting rays of something.

Sorry my umbrella's threw you off, Hilary. I was actually afraid it would be too easy for you to figure out what everything in my piece was!

The piece that I was given just felt like a rainy day to me. Grey and blue with what looked like three little squares of bright color. Not even a hint of the psycodelic funfest in the first two.

Fun, fun, fun!

Beautiful! I adore the color scheme. Really nice job on blending the last two slices. Love the umbrellas-> rays -> flames descension. The haikus - calling to mind the bright, abrasive, unhealthy fast food chains, while projected over quiet, lulling images of a different mode of civilization - crack me up. Nice work!

I am the creater of the top piece. I was creditied wrong. Oh well, this was my first attempt. I was excited to see the results.

Thanks!

Nice addition to my makepono, I hope to participate again some time.

Oh frfucksake. I'm sorry about that Jerry. Nothing personal, I promise. Obviously I'm an utterly incompetent bookkeeper and I will now drag my ass around back for a thorough kicking. This corpse is gorgeous, by the way. Lovely how things still work out despite my own hopelessness...

Phineas, that makes three in a row. I think we can move past kicking and enter the flogging stage. ;)

Lovely corpse by the way. I like the comic style paneling that happened in the last two.

Beautiful job, everybody! I did the second section, and I'm especially impressed that Geekman picked up on the sandals and general "Japaneseness" (?) in my photo. FYI, the photo was taken in Kamakura, Japan this summer. The statues are effigies left at a temple by parents of children lost in childbirth.

Cohesion!! My first thought was "fabulous travel brochure -- I want to go there!"

Balanced and wonderful.
