KOC: It's pretty weird that there's no deadline, but I guess we just have to use our Bags of Patience +5 :o
yeah but the suspense is killing me!!!
I asked them but didn't got an answer.

Maybe they'll only PM the winners, but not disclose a list of names.

still no hint :(
From the twitter of the writer that posted it. Lol maybe he is hiding.

"Oh god. The competition I launched yesterday has had nearly 500 responses."

Codes have been sent out!. If you entered try logging in and seeing if you have a pm from an admin. Someone on the forums posted they won so I logged into to reply and found a pm with my code in it. Does not look like any official post or email has been made yet though. I have never won anything so WOOT!. Good luck all!.

Anyone want to share your entry?. Intrested to see them, there was a lot of good ones. I just got back from travelling all day so I was knackered when i wrote it. Thought it was funny when I wrote it then looked at the next day and didnt like it, so nice surprise to win a code.

Minsk The Russian Hamster

Minsk was a promising Humanist hamster scientist. His lectures and theorys on humans and the application of human control were applauded amongst the rodent community. Until one fatfeful day when his eager but simple lab assistant Boo stole his work and fame, by claiming it to be his own. Boo used the work to ensnare his own pet, a human barbarian. Renaming himself the Space Hamster and Lord of Rodent Awesome. Boo put the final nail in poor Minsks coffin by naming his human Minsc.

On a road of furry revenge Minsk and his own human pet are now on a path that can only end in the most climatic but cute battle the world has ever known.

Ability
Using his brilliant mind Minsk has honed his brain to the point where he can blow things up with his mind, screaming his nemisis name in fury. So epic is his warcry that some humans have even been recorded as saying ” Aww he squeaked”. Oh and he has a jetpack.

No PM for me. Oh well, I guess my animal was kind of stupid. :p
My familiar is a miniature giraffe named Opulence because “I has it”. When you kiss him, he gives you gold.

It comes from this Directv commercial that I had just seen.

I thought it was funny, but what do I know since it was not a winner.

I say, I nearly forgot about this! And that would have been a shame. ;)

My entry was not favorite'd, but perhaps it is a mite derivative anyway.
