As usual, we think we've come up with something easy, and
BAM!, another contest dilemma on our hands! First there was the 'too few
entries' problem, then the FTP server sucked, then when all the entries were
FINALLY in, we had a real hard time judging. We tried to get Chris in on
the judging, but he bowed out, cuz he couldn't download the 2 songs or the
video. He liked the "Kill the Cake" drawing, so that one gets
the Chris' pick award. Although there were multiple
entries by a few people, we had a tendency to group things together, so they are
displayed that way here. BTW, the entry numbers were assigned based on
when the entries arrived. eVEN WITH THREE GUYS VOTING, THE SCORES CAME OUT
LIKE THIS:
gRAND pRIZE: 9 POINTS (gIRAFFE sCULPTURE)
rUNNER UP: 8 POINTS (oRIGINAL SONG "nEVER SAID mY
nAME")
hONORABLE MENTION 1 : 5 POINTS (mULTIMEDIA bARRAGE!!)
hONORABLE MENTION 2 : 5 POINTS (The trio of color PUSA drawings)
Thanks to all who entered, and Congratulations to the winners!
Grand Prize!
Wins:
A piece of original art from Chris Ballew himself!
(Note: if you look real close, you'll notice
where our illustrious webmaster Mike managed to rip this fine piece of art when
opening the envelope!!!! AARGH! Not to worry, as Chris made this on
his computer. He will send another directly to the winner. PLEASE
OPEN IT CAREFULLY!!!)
Besides this, he gets a cdr copy (made by Chris himself) of a very rare Caspar tape,
"Lint Cake" (which includes more Ballew art, in the form of the
