FartinMowler I'm not twelve so I guess I don't get the pickleman and pink pig thing so I would suggest a contest that pits the men against the girls for a thread that Rog would pick who has the last word.

Mockery I'm not doing an art/writing contest this time because I've already done those and want to do something different. I'm thinking I'm gonna go with the "Make an action figure out of household items" contest. And no, you don't have to know how to sculpt to be able to win it. The playing field is pretty much level when it comes to this one. People would basically just take whatever crap they can find in their house and come up with a way to turn it into something interesting/funny/whatever.

The contest will probably last a month and a half (to give people plenty o' time). I'll be sure to let you guys know if and when the contest is going to start for sure.

Spectre X hmmmm, banana bread

Geggy Only if there was a banana bread baking contest, I'd kick all of your asses.

Poxpower How about a scavenger hunt kinda thing? You make a list of items people have to look for, and you award points for each depending on how hard they are to find, and you have people send the stuff to you via mail or something.

I think more people might do that than create a toy figure.

Or "take you picture" contest kinda thing... that's kinda lamer though..

Rev. Danno Also, something has to hit someone in the groin. Must have stupid sound effects, & really stupid jokes as comentary... ("I'm a hot... Dog!" Canned laughter)

Jixby Phillips HOW ABOUT A FUNNISET MOM COMPETITION SHOW OFF!!!!

EACH ENTRY WILL CONSIST OF A HOME VIDEO OF MOMS DOING THE FUNNIEST THINGS IMAGINABLE, LIKE FALLING DOWN, OR CRACKING JOKES OF A MOM, OR DRESSING LIKE A BABY AND TALKING ADULT, OR ANYTHING ESLE THAT A MOM COULD DO TO MAKE YOU CRACK A SMILE AND JUST AMKE YOU LAUGH

Spectre X sculpt? DRAW!!!!

I suck at sculpting.
Jul 6th, 2003 03:36 AM
Rev. Danno Hell Rog, Go for the action figure idea... you saw what I sent you for the "shaving industry lies" submission (which you still haven't posted...) I'd be crazy go nuts for this shit...
I'm ready to sculpt right now...

Spectre X Ninja's movie horror movie poster thing sounds good. For me especially, I get to draw many many many many many many many entrails.

Or maybe a 'Draw your own Monster' contest. where you have to draw a demon, that looks fit to torture people.

Les Waste Well, if it was something I wanted, I would suggest an essay contest because me good at righting.

However, although many people want that action figure, I would not take it if it were free. If I wanted a toy that gives me horribly, unending nightmares, I would buy something that does it unintentionally. Like this. That action figure makes the bile in my esophogus rush to the back of my teeth and spurt out of my clenched lips in a slim, green trickle along the side of my mouth. You people and your disgusting, emaciated tortured dolls are sick as hell.

If you freaks want to play with an action figure covered in blades, hooks, and chains, that's fine. But don't offer it as a prize in a contest I would enter. So make the contest something I would be too lazy to do, like blowing up your neighbor's car.

Tropical Pls don't do another art contest... I can't draw for shit

Perhaps we can have them do an impression of that action figure, and have em take photos of it and send it in.
Jul 5th, 2003 08:25 PM
James Just give it to me. I'm still pissed about losing the contest for S-Mart Ash over on this other site.

Don't make it anything dealing with art or writing, so I can enter.

Mockery pickleman villain might be good, if you're willing to shoot for that

I definitely don't want it to be PickleMan related... I'd rather the contest somehow pertain to the prize. And building a custom figure could be potentially funny, but I don't know how many people would enter the contest. But I gotta admit, seeing photos of what people create with household items could be pretty funny... "TIN FOIL MAN!" or some shit.

most people are lazy even with bigger prizes, so a 12 inch toy (although cool....but not as cool as venal anatomica ) will probably get less people.

While most people are lazy, the whole thing about bigger prizes getting less people is definitely wrong. The Postal and the Mutsu contests both generated quite a large chunk o' entries.

Keep the ideas coming and I'm sure we'll figure out something.
Jul 5th, 2003 07:45 PM
Zomboid Yeah, that stuff sounds cool, but keep in mind the contests never really generate THAT much interest and most people are lazy even with bigger prizes, so a 12 inch toy (although cool....but not as cool as venal anatomica ) will probably get less people.

And quit browsing the forums without being on aim

Ninjavenom I think i'd very much like to win this contest. I'll CREATE my own tortured souls figure if it will get me that Talisac.

I think that creating your own Tortured Souls character would be fun to draw, but people with less vivid imaginations wouldn't be very good contestants, and also, i don't think there's very many ways that you'll get good "humourous" results when the victims of torture are involved. I can assure that you'll get at least six entries with phallic imaplement as a major theme.

A pickleman villain might be good, if you're willing to shoot for that, and if Pox wants to draw him, though the prize seems kinda like a non-sequitor.

I think i'd like to see a "pitch your own horror movie" idea, with a drawing of a character, a scene, or a mock-movie poster, and some sort of little description with it. Surely enough people here could come up with good results, and it would be sensible considering the prize, and it also offers a lot of freedom and still has room for humor in it.

Zomboid Mock, if I have to, I will learn how to teleport and steal that from you. I don't have an idea for a contest, but gore must be involved in some way

Capn: How the fuck would that work?
Jul 5th, 2003 07:06 PM
Cap'n Crunch Make your own Tortured Souls figure contest.
Jul 5th, 2003 07:00 PM
Anonymous if it has to be pickleman related, i'd have a dress up as pickleman contest. with a better prize.

but, uh, for this one, i like the car idea
Jul 5th, 2003 05:33 PM
HickMan Best idea for an arch-nemesis or sidekick in PickleMan :/

Mockery
Possible new contest. In need of ideas...

I have this big 12" 'Talisac' Limited Edition Tortured Souls figure and there's just no room for it here in the apartment. It's still in the original box 'n everything, so I figured it would make a great prize for a new contest on I-Mockery (when they were in stores, they were selling for like $20-$40).

Anyway, I'm looking for suggestions for a new contest on I-Mockery. What would people have to do in order to win it, etc. Keep in mind, it can't be anything too demanding (ie: "First person to blow up their neighbor's car wins a prize!", cuz let's face it... most people are pretty damned lazy even if there's really cool prizes involved. So if you have any ideas for something that would make a great contest here on I-Mockery, post it here.

Oh yeah, here's a pic of the figure in case you haven't seen it already:


And this is him all put together (smoky background and neat lighting effects surprising not included ):


Thanks in advance for any suggestions,

-RoG-
