Outspark Blog

Currently there have only been 7 eligible videos posted for the T-Pain video contest.

If videos continue to be submitted at this rate, there will only be around 30-40 total videos submitted.

With 10 spots for winners, every video will have a 1 out of 3 / 1 out of 4 chance of winning.

Making a video can be hard work but, once you start it you’ll find it to be very enjoyable.

I strongly recommend you  give it a shot. Work with an idea and at least try and get something together. Then, if you really don’t like it, don’t submit it.

Remember to remove all interface, character lines, and the command box on the bottom right by unlocking it and dragging it to the bottom right corner of your screen until it snaps into place, then it will fade away when you move your mouse.

Outspark is looking for something well made, but keep in mind that creativity, like humor and storytelling through music and video can take you further than you might think. If you are looking for an example of this, check out this dance video made a long time ago: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gaLdWlmyeo4 (0:50 is hilarious).

Now that all 25 coupon codes were redeemed in less than 24 hours after the last hangman post, August 26th, when the code was, “RHYTHM”, it’s time for a real test.

Even before the Hangman puzzle, there was a Magic Card puzzle that was apparently too easy, which is why I wanted to make the Hangman puzzle more difficult.

Everyone can see though, that I failed again so it’s time for Bribbo’s revenge!

Never before has a blog puzzle been this difficult!

Just keep in mind that the answer won’t be something that’s meant to be solved through guess and check, but something that can be figured out in time.

Although it’s difficult, the first 30 people that redeem this coupon code will win a 7-day Ninja Star (Critical) and 1,000 Spark Cash!

Start thinking now because this code will expire by Tuesday, September 1, whether all 30 are redeemed or not.

The Code is hidden within this post.

All you need to do is use what’s in front of you.

Ready? Set? Go!

____________

Go to outspark.com/redeem and put in the code when you have a guess. You will need to log in first.

Want to discuss this specific contest, go here.

I feel I must warn you guys that I am beginning to worry about this contest. It’s only been 3 days since the contest began and we’ve received so many really good screen shots.

Picking 3 winners is going to be a grueling process–very difficult and time consuming.

So to make things easier, I am allowing there to be 5 winners instead of 3. This means 5 screen shots will be featured on the blog with a description of why they won, and these 5 people will receive a 30-day Good Morning Costume.

However, only 3 will still get a thumbnail of their screen shot featured at fiesta.outspark.com.

Keep it up!

P.S. Try and remember to name the email “Screenshot contest” or anything with the word “screenshot” in it as one word, it will help out a lot.

Imagine you and I have been playing hangman.

You have one guess left before you lose so must guess the word instead of another letter.

Here are the letters already guessed: A, E, W, S, G

The word: _ H _ _ H _

When you want to guess the word, go to Outspark.com/redeem and log in, then put your guess in the promotional code section and click submit.

If you guessed the word correctly you will get a success message and win a beauty shop (basic) for Fiesta.

There are a maximum of 25 winners before the coupon code runs out! It also expires Wednesday, September , so if there are any left by then it will be too late!

Good Luck.

Want a Hint? Think DGO.

Also remember that the answer is not case-sensitive.

Although most of you already know that CBT2 for DGO will begin September 4th, and that there will new features including a more difficult 6 key mode in the advanced channel, I’d like to share a little inside information about the game.

We sent a survey out to everyone who played DGO in CBT1 and out of the people that completed it, over 95% were looking forward to CBT2. This basically means that if you haven’t tried DGO yet you should. It’s shocking how fun and addicting the game really is to everyone.

The tournament we had in the Outspark office was so much fun for everyone, even though my team got second place instead of first T.T

We had an elimination style tournament bracket with 9 teams of 3 competing.

Here’s a screen shot of the results of the championship match, you might recognize some of the names.

Remember to apply for DGO CBT2! I’ll see you guys in the advanced channel.
