Do you lads fancy a pumpkin carving contest?

You've got just under four weeks to work on your designs and hone your carving technique.

Less than 3 hours to midnight. I think it's safe to say that if someone so much as drew a crude face on a grape with a biro they'd win by default.

I completely forgot jam doughnuts have jam in them and really all I was doing was searching for something slightly spherical I can make a face on in the kitchen. When I poked the back end of a biro in it I realised how much of a good idea it was.

They may have done so if the thread was more popular. The way I see it, the problem is twofold:

1. The thread wasn't on /b/. Even with the revamped /*/ there's still a fair number of people who don't seem to venture beyond /b/.

2. There's no real sense of community on here. I mean, there's many people on a similar wavelength but I can't really recall anything collaborative on .gs in the 3 and a half years I've spent here.

There was an official meet once, in a pub in London if I recall right. LAN party there too? I forget. I seriously considered going, and remain curious about what it was actually like.

Sucking on ice cubes or frozen fruit is also very good for dehydration, and I am on medication that gives me intense dry mouth. I've yet to find anything which freezes as nicely as grapes do though. Strawberries and other soft fruits tend to go a bit mushy.

I was told a trade secret today, I'd thought I would share in case you haven't started yet.

If you cut the bottom out instead of the top, it retains its shape better when carving. I hadn't decided yet if I was going to do this or not this year, but hey ho I'll get one on Thursday.

May the best Pumpkin win.

Apparently cutting the hole from the bottom of the pumpkin and carving it from there rather than the top helps them last longer and not fall in on themselves, as does coating the insides in lemon juice after hollowing them out. Also, if you put cinnamon on the sides after when you go to put a candle in it it'll smell like the flat of that girlfriend that left you.

A carved pumpkin will last somewhere around a week, depending on the weather and conditions it is kept in, so you haven't left it too late.

Make sure you toast the seeds and some of the flesh when you scoop it out.
