C9 Guy Halloween Costume Contest

well not really - but it would be cool if they did one

winner gets... to fire ballmer ( ok they get vista and office 12 )

and youd upload photos to win

?

* if your pic is taken in crowded party / bar - you'd win automatically

You mean ME dress up like that ridicuous icon?  Shoot, I am NOT a square peg, a round hole, or a square hole with an antenae for an ear and four really fat hairs (though the icons got Ballmer beat in that respect.)

Better yet, have a 'dress the icon up for halloween' contest.

That'd be much more interesting.

I have a good one.. Dress him up like the real Bill Gates. You know, red skin, horns, tail, pitch fork. ...or light his a$$ on fire and he'll be Bill Gates after his first 5 minutes in hell.



I love you too! xx00 shooby

Hehe, I like the sounds of this. If only I had the time and resources to put a few hours of work towards this project... I'd even wear it in public... not at night of course

I will participate... What is the ending date to have uploaded that photo Jamie?

Thoughts? Ideas?

Or...You could just appoint the winner to be a moderator for 20 seconds and see how much damange they could do at that time.

(ps. If he wins or looses, i say beer28 is "the winna man!")

Yes, I definitely want to see some Channel9 guys costumes!

*Pierces thread with pushpin*

I'll dress up as the Channel 9 guy, Vista and Office 12 would be awomse.

Anyone have high high resolution images, 360 degree images. I need to start construction.

Where can I get one of these C9 guys at?

If the prize for this competition is a copy of Vista and Office 12... I will dress up in my costume and get my girlfriend to take a picture of me in downtown Ottawa in front of the Parliament buildings. Perhaps even Rideau Street in front of the Rideau mall... it's quite busy there too.

Edit: Travis... if you send a postcard to Channel 9 they'll send you a 9 Guy. The address is somewhere around here.

Jeff said he would send software...he didn't say what though. I would imagine Vista or Office 12 but I can't say for sure...

I hope it's Vista
