Okay, i'm going to be running one last PAX contest in the forums this week, but it's sort of a limited engagement thing. I'm going to make a post here sometime between 5 PM and 6 PM PST on Monday, July 28th.

That's all i can say for now.

Details to follow.

Some guy.

    You make a list of episodes with fights to the death and forget Amok Time (#34)?!?! That's inexcusable.

    Hand over your card, I am revoking your Trekkie status.

    Also you forgot #43 and #70 (granted in Let that Be Your Last Battlefield the fight to the death was between ancillary characters, but because it was the premise of the whole show it should be counted).

    You guys are too good to me! =) Hmm... I too will be at work between 5 and 6pm, but I'll try to find a way to sneak onto the boards at that time. =) Lord knows I find enough times to sneak onto the forum over the course of a day anyways, I just need a specific timeframe to sneak in this time. =)

    The prize is a hug!

    YES!

    Now... what would you do for a Khoo hug?

    It's like a Klondike Bar... only better!


    On a side note, any chance of starting the contest just a tad earlier? Say... 4:30pm PST... that way I'll still have access to a computer before I'm gone. Selfish, I know... but I really want a hug.

    I usually don't get home from work until 5:45pm PDT, so, yeah. I'll check when I get home, but I'm guessing I'm out on this one, heh.

    Move it to between 6 and 7 for the commuters? plzkthnx!

    All I remember is me avoiding you, and Khoo and Legacy taking turns avoiding me.

    I'm fine with being out-nerded (but I would like to point out that I got the episode numbers directly from the episode, so they need their Trekkie status revoked), but at least get the capitalization of my name right.

    Back on topic, if it's not a Khoo-hug, I bet it's a prototype Fruit Fucker, which makes me rather scared to win.

    Fruit Fuckers are your friend. They provide you juice and save your ass from getting pwned during the zombocalypse.

    It's those Ear Fuckers you have to worry about.

    If you want to be serious, judging from other giveaways, it's usually something donated for child's play that they didn't want, or video game swag/text items they didn't want.

    So from that information, it's obviously a fully operational power suit from the space marines of Warhammer 40k.
