Hey guys and girls!

Well it seems we have a few who have checked out the poll I made and the main theme is YES WE WANT A GROUP! Okay! at least that is sorted out.

The problem hereafter is that we actually CANNOT turn ~crikey into a group, no matter what we do. I'm sure the Admins are not even taking bribery! Shocking I know.
Since this account is active and will always be available, the group system will not accept "crikey" as a group name either!

However after reading something from the Poll, I had a little bit of a brain fart! [no, my brain didn't make a fart noise although if it had i probably would be laughing for days]

The epiphany i had was that if we do in fact MAKE a group with this account then we need to come up with a truely unique Crikey-based name!

Now.. I know this sounds like a bit of a drag, but i would really like it if you guys could come up with some names - that include the word "crikey" in it. Traditionally, this club has a lower c, so if we can stick to that, that would be preferred. I know it sounds stupid but i want to keep this group going and i am sad that it can't be converted to a group as is.

once a group of names have been agreed upon, i will set up a poll at my account and you guys will vote on the one that you all like the most. There will be alot of dispute about this, i'm sure, simply because this club has alot of supporters and like me, will be thoroughly attached to this name! rest assured that this actual account will never be deleted if i have anything to do with it! But the group that is made is where all the art will be accepted and any competitions or devmeets will be announced from...

moving on!

Another thing to consider is the admin side of things. While i have - yes - gotten this club back and trying to get the group thing flowing, i will need admin's to help me. Those who were originally admin's were `zacthetoad `cdaile `mirrorkills `NyssaB [did i leave anybody out!?!?!?!?!??!] and if you guys want to continue, let me know, if not i'll find some other eager trust worthy peeps who will be willing to hold a bit of responsibility with me.

All in all, this club is considered on stand-by until the group name is finalised and the group is made properly.

Please feel free to leave suggestions, questions, or anything else below in the comments section as i do check the questions/comments on a daily basis on my own account and hope that the liveliness - although partially muted - will come back to our favorite australian club once again.

Do take care!

How bout playing off the whole DA theme; Deviant Australia, Downunder Artists, something like that?

I've only been able to get onto DA once or twice a week lately, so I probably wouldn't be too much help managing things. But if there's anything else I can help with let me know.

Great to see that this will continue as a group!

What is involved with running/assisting a group?

you wouldn't be too busy with all those other groups you are in?

There's not too much happening in other groups. One is a test group, one is a private group with only a couple of members I chat to IRL anyway ... #devBUG and #SydneySyders are my busiest but they're easily managable and the others maybe I'll get a message from them once a week :D

In any case I can help with set-up and stick around to sort out any other issues :)
