Oprano Contest - Win Prizes - Impress Your Friends
 
I felt we should kick off the new look of Oprano with a contest. Now, since it is MY contest, it's going to involve some literary skills.


Oh, stop groaning, spelling won't count and you only need to write a paragraph or so.

One paragraph, spelling doesn’t count, easy enough, right?

Oh, there is one teensy weensy rule. You must use as many smilies, instead of words, as you can to express yourself.


The contest will last from today through Saturday 9/24



I have begged..uh no, threatened...uh uh...bribed...uhmmm...Morgan has graciously volunteered to judge the entries with me. In the event of a tie, we will turn to the wisdom of our own Solomon and fearless leader, Nick, for a decision.



There will be 4 categories judged:



1. The best story not using any smilies that will make Morgan throw up. You would think a woman who makes her living writing smut would be able to handle these...and you'd be wrong.


2. Initiation for the new mod on the block. That's right, this is for the best story that makes the most brutal fun of Dravyk. I’m sorry Dravyk. I know you don’t know me well, but I’m sure putting you through this will make us just the very best of friends.


3. The story that best seduces the judges. Yes, here is your chance to turn on the women that write the words that make the whole web schwiiing.


4. The most creative story without a category to guide you. This is for those of you who have trouble with following guidelines. Just let your creativity flow.




What's that? You ask. You want prizes? Ah well, I guess it would be too much to ask that you would want to do it just for the literary challenge, so there will be prizes.


From Exclusive Content - a $50 gift certificate to get some of their excellent images.

From TopBucks - One week's worth of traffic from their #1 exit console.

From Homegrown Cash - One month of homegrown content feeds

From Written Temptations - 2 story packs. One from Morgan and one from myself.

From the Oprano Newbie Webmaster Board's TGP Project - a $25 Amazon gift certificate.

From Oprano - each applicant will receive a limited edition, collector’s item. An Oprano mafia tee shirt.



Attention Mods: You, on the other hand, if you choose to play, will do it just for the literary challenge.



I want to thank our advertisers that have generously donated these fantastic prizes.


Opranauts are intelligent, witty and extremely clever. So get out there and get those creative juices flowing. I know you will make me proud.

Oooh... you just ruled out half the board... and according to a recent survey, the mods here really need those prizes to eat...


Here's an entry for you:

"I hear Dravyk is canadian."

They should be just to the right of where you write your reply with a little link at the bottom of the box that says "more" that you can click on to bring up a seperate window that has em all. I am guessing since you don't appear to see that that you might have smileys turned off in your settings for your account.

Nice job Red and some sweet prizes ... It could even be about any webmaster that has crossed your path and left you with a bitter taste in your mouth ..

Writer that you are, the ability to say "Vengeance is MINE!" is completely within your grasp! The only prize you'll get is the ability to say "TAKE THAT!!" but that can sometimes be *more* than enough! :D

DrGuile...one of my absolutely favorite movies is "Vertical Limit." I've seen it a dozen times at least. I hope I'm quoting this correctly, but if not, you'll get the gist.

Skip Taylor: "She's French Canadian. Sometimes she's Canadian and can be quite pleasant. Today she's obviously French."

That line reminds me so much of you. Not necessarily because of the "Candian/French" bit, but because you can't seem to decide whether you're a nice guy or not. That's always fascinated me.

Sure, I won money in a contest sponsored by MacDaddy Bucks. I'm not an employee of MacDaddy Bucks. You really should work harder on getting over it. Old news.

One day :) was feeling :( so :( had a :1party: to try make :( :D again.

Part of the reason :) was feeling :( was because :) was single. :) really needed some :inlove: but :) preferred to hang out at home andd :smily506: ...largely because :) was very :unsure: and :blush:

B) and :cool2: were friends with :) however, and the B) :cool2: duo, when together, was pure :bulb2:

B) and :cool2: decided that to make :( :) again, that :( needed to stop :wankit:, have a few :beer:, get :hic: ...and get a :bjcum: by having a :3some: that ended up :3some2: To be sure that they got :) a :bjcum: at the very least, B) and :cool2: made sure they invited a wide variety to the :1party:

Friendly :waving: types, drop dead gorgeous :zoinks: types, :flash: and :moon: types, demanding :eatme: types, :cheer: and :fanning: types, :angel:s and :butt: & :boober: and :whip: and :alc: types.

The :1party: was :v: but :) :bitchslap B) and :cool2: because now :) was :idontknow

Luckily :waving:, :zoinks:, :flash: & :moon:, :eatme:, :cheer:, :fanning:, :angel:, :butt: & :boober:, :whip: and :alc: were happy to :beer: and :bdance: Had an :bulb2: ...They all had held a little :wub: for :) at some point or another, so they had an orgy :1party:

:( was :) again, ...even :D. :cool2: and B) were left :huh: and :blink: before they joined in.

From that point on, :) was the :kneel: of :1party:

Good luck on the latter two.

Btw, there are two emoticons named "butt", the human and the monkey, and so it defaults to the monkey all the time. Suggest making one of them "butt2". http://oprano.com/msgboard/images/smilies/smile.gif

Sin 09-21-2005 03:52 PM

Re: Oprano Contest - Win Prizes - Impress Your Friends
 
I vote yes for that too Dravyk ...there are not supposed to be any monkeys in my story damnit!

Thanks, Trev!

Hmmm. You know, when you have the power to influence the changing of a 16 pixel graphic from a naked monkey shaking his butt to a naked guy shaking his butt, that your entire life hasn't been wasted.

Since I've been away for most of the weekend, I've decided to extend this contest until Tuesday. This will give it one full week.


So I'm giving you all another shot. This board is full of intelligent and witty people, so lets see some of it.
I've got lots of prizes to give away.

Bear in mind that it's late and I've had waaaaay to much soda pop and not enough sleep.



My Entry:

:) was feeling rather :happy45: so he decided to :car-smile to a club and :butt: on the dance floor. After a few :140s: he got up the nerve to ask :knitting: to dance. Why she was knitting at a dance club, no one knows. So they :dance: all night and at the end of the evening :knitting: invited him up for :Lets_do_i . Like a jackass he did the "I'm gonna score dance" :woohoo: so :knitting: went home with :cowboy: instead. :( ended up :car-smile home by himself to :wankit: . He learned never to do the "I'm gonna score dance" again.:-oops:

We'll need a ruling from Red on that one, but I'd say as many times as you want. ;)
