I'm thinking about starting a contest of my own, but I'm just making sure that the timing is right. If I recall correctly, Q started his pic contest right in the middle of the map contest--although it wasn't intentionally disrespectful, it wasn't done at the right time.
So... before I start explaining the rules and such, I'd like to make sure that it's okay with everyone to do so.
yeah! maybe you can make a site to host...unlike me >.<
but sure ive got tons of pics...the dowside of me running the contest is i cant eneter my own contest then judge my own pics.
i did but not right away

So what is the contest gonna be about? Creating cool WinBolo icons for your computer?
The votes speak for themselves. Nova, could u also let us send in short (set some sort of limit so they don't take up much space) movie clips? I have seen a bunch on hella-intersting bugs and shit which couldn't be kaptured into just 1 picture. Btw, could u make a loooooong deadline so ppl have some more time to accumulate clips n' pix?

This isn't going to be a picture contest--I'm not even sure that the word "contest" is even right. I was kinda tired when I typed all this shit up.
Anyways, I was thinking about running a very loose contest of wit. Since we know what some winbolo'ers look like, and pictures are oftentimes left up for captioning... So, post the link to the picture and underneath the link put your caption. If it's anything offensive, make sure that you ask whoever you're making fun of if it's okay to post.
Anything about me is fine. Post away, gents.
Don't you think that is offensive to people and most of them would NOT apprechiate it....
That's why I have people ask first, SJ.
Nova, why dont you either have a link with a couple pics or a website with pics, that aren't winbolo members or anyone else in the winbolo community. Therefore, nobody would or could get angry. Also, I would think having i.e. three pics and everyone commenting on those three pics it would be easier to tell the wittiest person. But what do I know. Just a suggestion

thats 262 pages of what you are talking about i think
better ask cliff if its ok to copy him
Yeah, I agree with SJ here. I don't feel comfortable with a caption contest for the individual pics I have on my website.
Instead, how about you get some screenshots of the game and have a contest for the caption of those screenshots?
However, kuddos for feeling out the community about whether this was a good time to hold a contest.
