Title: GEEKHACK BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION
Post by: mkawa on Thu, 08 August 2013, 08:28:22
with all the hubbub, fortunate and otherwise :( (RIP Nate)

I'd completely forgotten that we're coming up on Geekhack's SIXTH BIRTHDAY.

so we are going to celebrate as if it were 2012, basically.

we will be rolling out promotions with our vendor partners, contests with fabulous prizes over the next few weeks. some of them will coincide with keycon because i will be there, rknize and hashbaz will be there, and i'll probably just tell people since it's easier that way. apparently this will be streamed so then you'll know. it's just a lot less work on my part :D

AND NUMBER ONE PRIORITY

everyone has to punch a wall and put the video on youtube. best wall-puncher gets a perfectly functioning, signed smoke alarm from imav. (wondering what i'm talking about? CLICK HERE: http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=46732.msg988779#new)

NUMBER TWO PRIORITY

CM STORM AND GEEKHACK WILL BE RUNNING A CONTEST TO PRODUCE THE MOST AWESOME POSSIBLE QUICKFIRE RAPID TOP CASE: http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=46776.msg990828#msg990828

And hooray, GH is out of kindergarten and into first grade now! D'awww, it's so cute.

Also, I'm going to Keycon '13. I don't rank as high as rkinze, you, or hashbaz? :(

WAIT, STOP THE PRESSES STOP THE PRESSES

Quote
It's a new internet meme called 'iMaving' -- wherein you punch a wall and then do something very conscientious. Examples:

- punch hole in the wall, then defrost refrigerator
- punch hole in the wall, then babyproof the room
- punch hole in the wall, then install weatherstripping

The possibilities are endless!

this is now officialling an IMAVVING CONTEST. YOU MUST IMAV IN YOUR MOST CREATIVE POSSIBLE WAY AND THEN POST THE RESULTS

WINNER GETS SOMETHING

I don't need to punch holes in walls. Windows is a world without walls.

A world without walls?

Is that why the roof keeps crashing down on us?

I know you're trying to delay with the details about the cover contest... but can we at least know whether there will be any guidelines for it?  Or a completely FFA idea buffet?  I just can't decide if I can think of any random idea I like or if I will need to conform to a certain theme?  (Plus... I don't have a QFR :(  Can I just make these covers fit onto one of my TKL keyboards and pretend it's a QFR? :D )

I hope you can answer at least some of those soon :D
