In case anyone is unsure, the PvP isn't very competitive. Doesn't matter how many poses you do. If there were a competition, it might be for "most miserable", or "most creative interpretation of miserable" or something like that. And thanks for the offer of advice!! 2 Quote Xena, Level 14+ Valkyrie Ranger January 2017 December 2016 Oct/Nov 2016 Link to comment
Terra Posted May 26, 2017 Report Share Posted May 26, 2017 Thank you to whom ever filled in the table for me. I think that pose is miserable enough, but I'm gonna try tonight.

iatetheyeti Posted May 26, 2017 Report Share Posted May 26, 2017 Alrighty, so, the actual pose looks like this: Spoiler My version is... slightly different. It's suitably miserable (channelling my dire commute, the high heat that I cannot handle, I can't do the pose as described, and that boxes are obstructing my yoga!), but perhaps not my most flattering angle Spoiler 12 Quote "The old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost.

Xena Posted May 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2017 @iatetheyeti the boxes definitely fit the misery criteria @suzyQlou gets extra points for a NF shirt! She does perhaps look a little too happy, but the kiddo on the right has a great facial expression. Plus a completely miserable pillow fight could break out at any moment. I think it's supposed to be cloudy and overcast tomorrow. Gonna try to find a miserable outdoor location :-( (the frown was just for miserable emphasis) 6 Quote Xena, Level 14+ Valkyrie Ranger January 2017 December 2016 Oct/Nov 2016 Link to comment

Coco P Loco Posted May 27, 2017 Report Share Posted May 27, 2017 I'm game! I just rolled a 71... Toestand. For a minute I thought that this would be alright, it sounds like it should be easy, right? I was horribly wrong, nevertheless, I will try it! 1 Quote Current Challenge Backstory | Challenge 1 | Challenge 2 | Challenge 3 | Challenge 4 | Challenge 5 "We are what we believe we are." - CS Lewis Link to comment
Coco P Loco Posted May 27, 2017 Report Share Posted May 27, 2017 Ok. Done... miserably. The main misery in this is the misery of only having a 10-second timer on my camera, but it taking me longer than that to get into the pose. I tried it several miserable times, trying to do it more quickly (but that's not really what yoga poses are about) so I could get a photo of the miserable toestand And that's the actual Coco P Loco in the background, looking at me like I'm crazy! 17 Quote Current Challenge Backstory | Challenge 1 | Challenge 2 | Challenge 3 | Challenge 4 | Challenge 5 "We are what we believe we are." - CS Lewis Link to comment

Coco P Loco Posted May 27, 2017 Report Share Posted May 27, 2017 I just realised that I did the wrong pose... I picked row 71 from the sheet, but should have picked 74, so I've added a column with the pose number on the sheet now.
