I want to bring this back, Weekend Warriors. Joedios has been changing and I think everyone (including a lot of newer members) need to participate with more than just posting photos. We need to let loose and get creative again, and also take time to look around the site for shots to comment on. You don't have to say much to acknowledge a good shot!

With that aside, below are the weekends in November and the first weekend of December. I've decided this all on my own, so I hope I'm not stepping on anyone's toes:

November 12th - 14th: [SIZE=2]In-fights![/SIZE]
What happens when Cobras disagree with Cobras or when Joes disagree with Joes? Brawling amongst themselves of course. Show your ideas of fights within groups and armies.

November 19th - 21st: [SIZE=2]Training[/SIZE]
New recruits have got to train, so show them at it! Where are your figures put to the test, to see if they are worthy recruits?

November 26th - 28th: [SIZE=2]Stranded[/SIZE]
Time for your ideas of a pretty hopeless situation for a few guys lost in the middle of nowhere.

December 3rd - 5th: [SIZE=2]Behind the Scenes[/SIZE]
This weekend show the magic behind some of your shots, so that the rest of JD can observe and steal your cool secrets! I remember the last time we did this there were tons of interesting set-ups and tricks you normally don't get to see.

Hope those seem interesting to you guys. To anyone who posts or doesn't, really try to comment so it doesn't feel like a waste of effort to those who participate.

I'm glad you brought this up. I was just talking with Hammerfel the other day about bring back Weekend Warriors. And if you want to take the reigns and get this rolling again, I'm all for it. Great topic choices too! I really hope this takes off again.

I always try to get a weekend warriors shot up. It seems a little easier to get shot with a pre determined subject.

This is great and after running Weekend Warriors for a few months in the past, its good to see it up and running again. I've been thinking about restarting it since it kinda fell when I gave it up (not saying my predecessors didn't do great at it, it just kinda lost its drive).

Anyways, its good to see it back and I'll be on board as much as I can.

Yeah, that's what I like so much about Weekend Warriors (and the short-lived alternative, Joe of the Week), it provides a focus, a starting point to find inspiration. It's good to see this back, I hope I'll be able to find the time to participate.

Only two pictures for the "Training" theme ? I can't believe nobody posted a scene with Sgt Slaughter or Big Boa !

It was the first thing that popped into my head. But then I thought, "nah, everyone will be doing it." Couldn't come up with anything else.

I work at Toys R Us... this is not a good time of year for me, but I'm trying to participate. Hopefully next weekend I can get a shot done since I have Thursday & Friday off school.
