You know…the only thing I like better than being the administrator of the best TMNT blog in the world…is giving stuff away on the best TMNT blog in the world!

That’s right! Ladies and Gentleman! I proudly present to you, the first (maybe) annual, GoGreenMachine.Org “I DIDN’T GET TO GO TO COMIC CON-TEST”!

We know many, many of you did not get to SDCC this year. And we at GGM feel sorry for you! So sorry in fact, that we want to give you something to make you feel better! You poor poor emo kid!

We are going to give away THREE sets of the following prize package:

A copy of of the Special Deluxe Edition Reprint of the first issue of Eastman and Laird’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (given away to attendees of the Turtles Forever Screening) signed by:

Kevin Eastman
Peter Laird
Steve Lavigne
Eric Talbot
Dan Berger
Jim Lawson
Mike Dooney
Tristan Jones
Andres Ponce
Dario Brizuela

ANNNNNNNNND! (Did he say AND?) YES, ANNNNNNNNND!
a print of the Famous Talbot piece “Shadow-Splinter-Casey-April” Signed by Eric Talbot himself!

I know what youre saying, “Holy poop Stephan! That is one heck of a prize package! How do I gets me one?”

I’m glad you asked! All you have to do is tell us a story about why you didn’t go to San Diego Comic Con this year. But there is a catch! YOUR ANSWER MUST BE FICTIONAL! That’s right. We want you to lie to us. We want you to tell us the biggest, craziest, unbelievable lie your sick twisted brain can muster! Because let’s face it, the REAL reason you didn’t go is probably really lame and boring. And who wants to read lame and boring?!

Just like all of our contests, winners will be chosen at random (the ol’ name in a hat routine). The 3 winners will receive the above prize package, and have their big ol’ whopper of a story posted on GoGreenMachine.Org for all to see!

Please send your Name, mailing address (in case you win), and story to [email protected]

Please have your story submitted to us by Monday, August 10th! (That is two weeks from today). Please keep stories to about a page in length.

YOU CANNOT ENTER THIS CONTEST IF YOU ATTENDED SDCC09 (I know who you are!) If we catch you trying to enter and you attended, you will be disqualified from this AND ANY FUTURE GGM CONTEST (trust me, so not worth it).

As Always, GoGreenMachine.Org writers are also not eligible.

GET TO LYING!

Huge Thanks go out to Rob Longert of Peppercom, Mirage Studios, Kevin Eastman, and Eric Talbot for supplying prizes!

Yes!! This should be fun

This contest discriminates against honest people.

...

Unless, of course, you did go to Comic Con, and you're trying to enter the contest... in which case, this contest discriminates against dishonest people.

So... this contest really discriminates against all humanity, and only animals are really allowed to enter. But, of course, they can't tell stories... Way to rig the contest, Archon... jerk...

*gobo* · 07-28-2009, 04:20 AM

^_^ I dunno which is funnier: post #1 or #3...

doomiscool · 07-28-2009, 06:10 AM

Should be a laugh...good contest idea Archon XD

*gobo* · 07-28-2009, 06:27 AM

Oh, geez... I just got the pun in the thread title. Before, I kept thinking, "how in the heck is he planning to test people on an event they didn't attend?" Thanks for making me feel dumb. I appreciate it.

Thanks! I thought it would be fun! And I was right, the responses I am already getting in are hilarious!

Leonardo19 · 07-28-2009, 03:14 PM

LOL! He called that $h*! poop.

Archon_Turtle · 07-28-2009, 04:25 PM

Not to influence stories...but a suprising amount of people so far have ended their stories with their own death...which I find...hilarious.

doomiscool · 07-28-2009, 04:35 PM

Mine didn't

*Ninjinister* · 07-28-2009, 06:41 PM

My real reason involved a mad scientist, aliens, zombies, and Corey Feldman. How could I ever make up something to top that?

*ToTheNines* · 07-28-2009, 06:45 PM

Mine is the shortest one you'll get, promise lol

Bigfoot · 07-28-2009, 06:57 PM

If I have 2 weeks, I'm going to put some thought into this. Run some ideas past friends and see what transpires.

NYShell · 07-28-2009, 07:35 PM

hahaha...oh my...I just got the joke...

TMNTGal · 07-29-2009, 01:23 PM

That is the funniest concept for a contest. In all seriousness though, I couldn't make it because I was on a hot date with Leonardo. His topics of conversation are just so interesting. That and I got lost in his eyes. By the time I came to the con was over.

Lil G · 07-29-2009, 03:14 PM

K, I entered. I didn't get to go to Comic Con so hopefully this would make up for it.

Bigfoot · 07-29-2009, 03:26 PM

I have new financial obligations and wasn't able to go, but that is lame, and nobody wants to read lame.

Especially me. You're lame. Lame you are. Lame. Okay I'm done, it's your name, so I'm not going to wear it out.

*gobo* · 07-29-2009, 07:07 PM
