Shade's first admin bot check contest ! (in Contests)


AdminShade May 27 2006 11:22 AM EDT

This is the first contest of a series of bot check contests that I will try to create. The rules for this contest:
The prize for this contest will be $50,000 + all entry fees of the people who entered this contest, so if 10 people enter, the prize will be $100,000.

I will anounce the winner as soon as all 5 bot checks have been correctly entered.

paid.

AdminShade May 27 2006 11:53 AM EDT

Oh yeah, as an additional note: both words have to be entered, will give the people who entered first the chance to correct my mistake :)

Pet0sh May 27 2006 11:54 AM EDT

Paid

AdminShade May 27 2006 11:59 AM EDT

cbLoans(DD) was the first to enter the bot checks, and he gave both words.
however he only filled in 4 of the 5 bot checks so will not have entered completely.


Wasp, bok, {cb1}novice and petosh will have to give both words of each check again.

Wasp May 27 2006 12:02 PM EDT

Have already re-sent. Check your chat-mail.

AdminShade May 27 2006 12:03 PM EDT

pet0sh was very close, but one of his entries wasn't complete. You have to be creative possibly! ;)

AdminShade May 27 2006 12:39 PM EDT

AdminShade May 27 2006 12:45 PM EDT

sigh: when correcting your guess, while it is still free, please put in ALL your guesses again, in the right order.
In addition all bot checks ARE pg...

These are the original bot checks which I altered slightly to give the above result:

AdminShade May 27 2006 1:00 PM EDT

8 people have entered, and I got a donation which I will happily use for this contest:

total prize money now is: $50,000 + $40,000 = $90,000


Stay tuned for another one of my crazy bot check contests, the next one will have similar rules, and I will have thought about some of the problems that have arisen from this contest as well :)

YNM May 27 2006 1:05 PM EDT

OOH my first contest win....thankies shade.


Yawn/some was hard....

AdminShade May 27 2006 1:19 PM EDT

Indeed Yawn / Some was the hardest bot check, in which i removed the final letters.


yaw and som aren't valid words so people just had to think of legit English words ;)

also Dawn / Envy was found to be harder by some people, i think because of the possibility of it being dawg according to some people :p

YNM May 27 2006 1:24 PM EDT

But the n looks nothing like a g....

And dawg is not a valid, legit English word....

AdminQBnovice [Cult of the Valaraukar] May 27 2006 1:29 PM EDT

forgot that you might be nixing whole letters..DOH.

AdminQBnovice [Cult of the Valaraukar] May 27 2006 1:32 PM EDT

BTW Shade, Yaw is most certainly a real english word.

AdminShade May 27 2006 2:03 PM EDT

not according to www.interglot.com ;)

AdminQBnovice [Cult of the Valaraukar] May 27 2006 2:25 PM EDT

Pet0sh May 27 2006 2:51 PM EDT

:( I got all except bans/guy, I though it was buns...

Well that was fun, I'll be back for the next one.

AdminQBnovice [Cult of the Valaraukar] May 27 2006 5:43 PM EDT

A translation for "Yaw" cannot be found

That's what interglot says, actually.

Flames Fame May 27 2006 6:16 PM EDT

actually Shade i entered and forgot to send my entry fee so i'll send a little extra.

Yaw is a boating/flying term "Pitch and Yaw"

I got this but didnt realise it had finished - cant wait for the next one.
Shade if you want some 'arguably' non-PG I have some :-)
