Yay new season time!
A couple of comments on the OP that might avoid confusion:
Usernames in Oath Complete pictures are now REQUIRED to earn points towards the year-end total.
...
Put your user name into the picture of your model and you get another point. You get the idea!
Speed painting!
How fast can you paint one model? AFTER your oath is approved, take two pictures with the worldtimeserver.com website clearly in the background of your picture: one at the start of your painting session with your single-color model, and one at the end of your painting session with a completed model! The base does not need to be done to be called 'completed', but remember that if all your models are based you do get a point for basing. The time stamps on the worldtimeserver.com site must be within 24 hours of each other. No extra points for quickest painting time! That would be too hard to prove without video.
February: It’s Leap Year!
- technical challenge:
- theme challenge: paint a model that is leaping, jumping or soaring!
And finally, shameless promotion for http://oath-countdown.appspot.com/ where you can get a easy 'how long have I got left in my timezone?' countdown. I'll change it up to account for the removal of the t-7 day oathing rule in the next few days.

Hmm. I've never allowed that before. Here are three reasons why I hesitate:
-There's only one prize draw, so if I allow Whalesing of previous-year oaths, the entries could gradually become saturated by the painters who have been Oathing the longest. I'd rather newcomers have a similar chance at prizes.
-Previous years' oath threads eventually get archived. I have archives access, but many goons don't, so it would become difficult to verify the previous years' entries against a claim for Whales in the current year.
-If you have forever to go back and Whales an oath, it'll be easier to put it off... forever. An incentive to revisit your failed oaths sooner (e.g., this year) might be the best way to get us procrastinators to finish things.
That said, if there's a strong push by others to get old oaths in for Whalesing, I'm open to being convinced.
How about a cutoff for failed-oaths - say anything from the final 3 months of the previous season can be carried over? (I don't how long it takes a thread to get archived - that might still be too long). I'd argue for something like this because we'd allow a fail from month 1 to be whale'd almost a year later in month 12, but a failure in month 11 or 12 is almost/completely impossible to save. I don't know if thespaceinvader's failed oath would fall within this span though...

drat. That's a really good looking murder of Khorne daemons. Assuming, of course, that the proper noun for a gathering of Khorne daemons is a murder.
