Quickie Weekend Contest: Get your name in the game!
Posted by emily May 9, 2008
Hey hey, this contest is for those of you who bother to check our blog on a Friday. Way to go!

You have the chance to get your name (or screen name, if you prefer) into the first episode of Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People. Where will your name show up? We're not telling... it'll be a surprise... but it'll be awesome, promise.

What do you have to do? Simply come up with a tagline for Snake Boxer 5, the arcade game that plays a pivotal role in the episode. (Okay, maybe not pivotal. But it's fun.) The images below will help give you an idea of what Snake Boxer 5 is all about. The rest is up to you.


To enter, send your proposed tagline to contest@telltalegames.com with "Snake Boxer 5 contest" in the subject line. Also include the name you want used in the game if you win (either your real name, or your screen name of choice). You can enter as many taglines as you want, but only one can win and spamming us will be considered annoying, so use your best judgment. The contest will close on Tuesday at 9:00am Pacific time and winners will be notified that evening. Contest is closed, and winners will be notified shortly. Thanks to all who entered!

Special note from our lawyers: If we select you as a winner, you will be required to sign a release permitting us to use your name (or screen name) in the game. If the winner is a minor, then the winner's parents will need to sign the release on behalf of the winner. (We'll need your signed release back by Wednesday to include your name in the game, so keep this in mind if you don't have easy access to a scanner or fax machine...)

Something really cliche seems like a good fit. Something like "Snake Boxer 5: This time it's perssssonal."

And I submitted "This time, it's pers-s-s-s-sonal!"
Comment by Macfly77 May 13, 2008, 4:25 pm
Lol, it's so good everybody came up with it! Mine's way better though cause it has four s'es whereas yours has five, which is obviously one too many. Seriously though that was just off the top of my head, I'm sure the one that won was way cleverer than that.
Comment by zilcho May 13, 2008, 5:40 pm
That's winners. So more than one person won. I didn't really come up with anything that great though, and my email inbox is still empty ;_;
Comment by Freelance Poster May 13, 2008, 6:51 pm
Have the winners been notified yet, or is there still a chance one of mine got in?
Comment by Hmmm... May 13, 2008, 7:02 pm
I would assume so, seeing as they need the signed release back by tomorrow. You think someone would've posted that they won on the forum though.
Comment by Freelance Poster May 13, 2008, 7:27 pm
Strike that, at least one poster looks to have got one. (I don't see an edit for comments section here, so sorry for the double post)
Comment by Freelance Poster May 13, 2008, 7:30 pm
There were five winners, and I sent the emails at about 5:30 this afternoon (Pacific).
Comment by Emily May 13, 2008, 9:48 pm
Yay!

I'll email it later today.
Comment by RabidZombie May 14, 2008, 3:52 am
Well done to the winners! Sadly I wasn't one of them, but my idea was pretty bad. :P
Comment by Guybrush Threepwood May 14, 2008, 8:38 am
