It's Back! Brawl of the Wild Avatar Bet 2023

[uofmman1122]

Getting in a little early this year, but bringing back the tradition once again.

Rules are simple:

Indicate in this thread that you'd like to participate. If it's not obvious whether you're a Griz or Cat fan, let us know which team you're supporting.
***** talk to your heart's content starting Sunday, November 12th.
Once the game is over, if your team won, come in and claim a rival to give an avatar to. (Must follow AGS avatar guidelines)
Losers: Once you've been claimed you must display the avatar given to you for the remainder of the FCS season. That means through the national championship game in January.
If there are more winners than losers, team up with another winner to choose a good avatar for a loser, and if the opposite is true, some people might need to pick two losers to give different avatars to. But we'll figure it out.


I'll track the participants in this post so we know who's entered.

Excellent! Hopefully more of our fans see this next week and jump onboard. I always enjoyed doing these in the past!

It's been a few years - although I think it was on the other site that we did this every year for a bit. Count me in.

Oh, you might be right. I know we did it 2 years ago here, as well, and now I vaguely remember someone saying the same thing back then haha. Glad to have you aboard, though!

[uofmman1122]

Alright everyone, get in here!

It’s Brawl week!

The conference championship and #2 seed are on the line!

[Roamingriz]

I am in. 🙂

[SeattleCat]

If someone can walk me through how to put up a Avatar pic, I'm in..... **** i guess i'm old now.

[uofmman1122]

Getting closer!

Any more Griz or Cat fans want in on this one?

I promise it's a fun time. xthumbsupx

[SeattleCat]

I'm still struggling how to make an avatar, not seeing it in my account profile, anyone help a guy out?

Don't worry, when we win on Saturday, I'll walk you through it. xlolx

In seriousness, go to your profile, under "My Settings" on the left hand side click "Edit Avatar" then you can either use an image on your computer (click "Option 2 - Upload Image From Your Computer:") and select it from its folder, or, you can find an image online, right click it and select "Copy image address" and paste it into the field on option 1.

(Note: using the image address can be wonky depending on how an image is hosted online, so sometimes it doesn't work unless the address leads to a .jpeg or .png file address, but this is getting pretty technical. The easiest option is downloading/saving an image you want in your pictures folder and then using option 2 to upload it)

I figured it out probably as you were posting, I have a sweet Avatar now.

And the Grizzly fans will have sweet avatars after Saturday. xthumbsupx

Haven't put much thought into it, but seeing yours, I'm hoping Tommy has a day and it can be him with a caption like "King of Montana" being that Tommy is a Montana kid. "Tommy for Gov"?? Or maybe Askelson, his folks frequent my local watering hole. Still a work in progress, obviously.

Tommy looked fantastic against Eastern, and so did Sean. I hope there's a healthy dose of both of them on Saturday.

And the D line is going to tear through their O line, Brode and Nolan are going to have great days!

Why does your avatar look like a bear in the headlights? Did you lose a bet?

Haha it's from a manga called Dr. Slump, and I always thought it was funny. No deep meaning, or anything.

[taper]

I don't have skin in the game but are willing to help with avatars. I have an account with DALL-E3 so the sky's the limit. Cartoon, photorealistic, surreal, Dr. Seuss, etc. Just a sample:

A mango?

ok I googled a manga is a comic book for those that were afraid to ask

[Roamingriz]

That is very cool taper

Dude.... those are awesome!

[MTGRIZ]

I don't post but have lurked reading threads for many years, but I am in

[uofmman1122]

Only one more day!

You have until kickoff time to still get in on this!

[bobcathpdevil56]

Okay, okay. With the sweet ones that AI can do, I will be in!

Go Bobcats!!!

[taper]

I get 15 free prompts per day and it usually takes a few tries to iterate. Would be a good idea to "pre-order" if you want an AI avatar. Be as descriptive as you can. It's very good at using particular art styles if you name them.
I'm not going to post all the experiments I did, but I do have a good bobcat pink ballerina and sad griz eating a PB sandwich(use your imagination).

[uofmman1122]

Last call!

If you get in before kickoff I’ll add you.

Good luck to everyone today!

Thank god I didn't get this one..... I really really dislike Hauck.

I found saving it to your computer and then snagging it from there works best.

[bobcathpdevil56]

Ahhh man!!!! The worst one for sure.

You're lucky, you were in my sights, but RoaminGriz got to you first. xlolx xthumbsupx

[bobcathpdevil56]

Those AI ones at least look cool. Damn.

[MSUBobcat]

Ahhh man!!!! The worst one for sure.

You poor, poor soul.... If I got that one, I'd be done posting until 2023 season was in the rearview mirror.

[Catbooster]

It was hard to click the "save changes" button.

Congrats Griz fans.
