Hello there D-toiders.
I am Spykron and I assist with the managing of a GameStop in Massachusetts. We have A LOT of random pre-order swag lying around in my store and I thought "why not give it away to you guys." Because we don't want it anymore.
So heres the deal. I will be visiting fellow d-toider ShadokatRegn next week (13th-18th) in the mile high city of Denver. We have been friends for years now and I am proud to have brought her strength into His Robots Army.
Anyway, neither of us has much money, so we are looking for fun, creative ideas of things to do. You submit the ideas, we do the things and take a picture, the 3 ideas that we had the most fun with will win!
:OFFICIAL RULES:
How to enter:
1. Open to all d-toid members. Must have a mailing address to get your prize.
2. Just post your idea in the comments section. There will be more than one blog posting of this contest. Shadokat will probably repost under her name as well. You only need to submit your idea once on one blog, but if you want to post multiple times, go ahead. Feel special!
3. Submit as many ideas as you want.
Rules on submissions:
1. Ideas must cost nothing, be legal, and safe.
2. Nothing sexual guys, plz, srysly.
3. Be fucking creative. Creativity wins it.
4. We dont have time or money to travel far, so ideas must take place in the city. Or in a place you would expect a big city like Denver to have. (Malls, McDonalds, etc..)
5. Ideas must produce an Epic picture. The final picture of the event is something you should keep in mind. (I have a tripod and a timer, if that helps)
6. The ideas don't have to be something we need to leave the house for.
7. Also, creativity.
Deadline:
Jan 16th 2008
Winners:
1. Spykron and Shadokat reserve the right to ignore/preform as many ideas as they choose.
2. We will agree one a top 3 of the best ideas/resulting pictures and post them. Along with any other interesting crap that might happen along the way.
3. Winners announced sometime around the 20th.

go to a place that has a pole or some sort of support beam that people who go there can just grab onto. When a good looking girl comes by... pole dance!
Go to McDonald's and order a McFillet Mignon
run through a mall shirtless. At one point, go to Abercrombie or some other asshole clothing store where the young people like to go so they can look cool and ask if you can model their products

I've actually done this one before, and you'd be surprised how many people take the phone numbers...
Also, notice the "maybe some math assistance?" in small letters under "with the guys."

go on wikipedia, and look up the endings to all of the movies that are currently in theaters. Go to the nearest movie theater, and go near the ticket stand. as soon as somebody buys a ticket, tell them the ending to their movie

Go to Barnes and Nobles and put a piece of paper saying "Snape kills Dumbledore" inside of every Harry Potter #6 book. Yeah, I know it may be a few years old, but it's still funny. AMIRITE!?

Start asking people what year it is and then tell them you need money to get back to your own time (sometime in the future). Then run around screaming incoherent gibberish. They'll think you're speaking in tongues.
Or...
You could walk around and go up to a random person and say some obscure movie quote. When they look confused egg them on. Try sounding out the first word and slowly try and help them until they get the next line right. Unless they don't which is more likely... Then just give an angry sigh and storm off.
OR...
You could just have a ton of fun packing up all of the stuff to send off to me...

You guys could buy a 40 old old E and hit up a playground!
Stay in bathroom stalls at a mall and talk back and forth about issues at home.
See who can eat the most jalapeños doused in hot sauce.
Milk chugging is always a crowd favorite.
Find a hill and bring a shopping cart, need I say more? Oh, do this after you make that D-toid helmet for a cooler effect.
Go to a game store a talk in extreme nerd to a clerk about some FPS-MMORG.
Hit on the ladies at a local Mc Donalds to try and get free food (while wearing that D-toid helmet you made)
...That's all I can think of right now, no epic pics to go along as all I have is MS paint...yay

1- Buy a ticket for a parking spot and set up a picnic in the spot with your friend. When angry motorists ask what you are doing show them the ticket and proclaim you have legally paid for your time in the parking spot and you will use it as you please.
2- Find a ridiculous costume, hide it in a bag then go to a pricey suit shop. Show the attendant there that you are interested in a suit and say you would like to try one on but are worried that it wont look as good on you, enter the changing room, put on the ridiculous outfit and walk out and say 'See I told you it wouldnt look good on'
3- Set up an easel on the street with a sign for free portraits, when a person asks for one draw them a stick figure and hand it to them, describing the details and nuances you attempted to bring out in the portrait (use lots of pretentious high art terms for extra lulz)
4- Dress up in spandex exercise gear and run around a shopping center food court doing lots of warm-up stretching exercises, then order a SHITLOAD of food and make pigs out of yourselves, only to resume your warm-ups directly after eating.
More to come maybe.... :)

Not bad. Only it hasn't snowed in about a week...guess I can cross my fingers.
And to anyone who suggested fucking - you didn't read the contest, and you're absolutely barred from winning, even if we use a future idea.
