So I looked and searched for a good while for the April and May challenges as I actively participate in the contests. I recently started a new job and have not spent as much time around the forums as before, but when I came into the forums to check things out and get caught up, April and May challenges are nowhere to be found to my surprise.
I narrowed it down to two options:

1- They never took place... why oh why?
2- They took place but became harder to find

A solution to the first one is to perform CPR and get more challenges out there from the users so that Moose and Ethan's pockets don't suffer so much abuse.
I have no idea how to solve the second one, but at least I can make it known to the mods through this post that the challenges have become gradually harder to find.

If you know or have seen these challenges... please inform the authorities. Or just post a link below.

Ethan and Moose were busy preparing for the Gathering, and other things, so they didnt have any challenges for a bit (or that's how I understand it). They offered the ''30 days of becker'' GAW threads instead.

I dont know, but I assume the challenges will resume when they have the time.
 
plus i offered a few of my own to fill gaps/etc...

things will pick up in a while...

right after Blade, Ethan is going on vacay for a good while, else where, to warm climes (ie: below the equator!) and well, he'll be busy and it'll be fun fun fun when he comes back.
 
We'll get something going soon. I gotta talk to E tomorrow. You'd think I would have talked to him about it over the weekend, since I was there shooting for most of the day Saturday, but nooooo..................

Here are a couple of other things to consider:

1. Despite the lack of an official monthly challenge, there have been no less than four different giveaways or contests being hosted by various members at any given time here on the forum.

2. The participation in the various challenges prior to April and May was pretty low. If you look at any contest or challenge thread here for the last while, there are a ton of "reserved for entry" posts, and very few actual posts in comparison. If the quality of participation doesn't go up, there is a good chance the quality of challenges and contests won't be that great either. Just food for thought, not an insult or condemnation of anyone.

True......you had a good one but I think everyone will agree that after George's post there really was no point in anybody, or at least me, trying to compete with that.
