Not the best pics, but after the amount of looks I got riding with that on the front of my bike I am not going there again for a while. :D
I made a helmet for my water block. :D

If I would know we'd have a day's time left, I'd take a better picture, but I wouldn't wanna miss this round so ....
I improvised and made a little scene (some people that came around were pretty freaked out)
I wan't to ride my bicycle ... But I can't ride it where I like :(

Bicycle, road, road sign and ofc the waterblock :)
I'll tell ya, the Bike level has really woken up the creativity level in XS members here.
Dammit, I'm gonna have to step it up another notch for the next go-round
aah, too bad I can't get into the contest, but rules are rules :)
SNiiPE_DoGG
Thanks mate! I will just continue to do the tasks out of contest, it's a lot of fun :)Quote:
I am sorry mate I cant let you in the contest but I LOVE the creativity you used maybe if I have an extra prize left over at the end I will talk to you
My imagination is dry today. And my neighbor was giving me funny looks when I asked to take pictures of his bike. :D

Sadasius
Thanks a lot, Sadasius! :) I won't forget your nickname :up: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...lies/toast.gif
So I am in, will try to get the grand prize :yepp:
Autotuuuuune ...... kinkos ...... ??????? Raseed ??????? :sofa:
when I get home from work, this round ENDS so hurry up ;)
Um... Interesting...
Maybe the next command will be connected with automobiles, cause they use water cooling system too :) maybe we will have to take photos of some water cooling action with our cars :)
mm... kinkos might be the kinks of tubing, but I have no idea about "Raseed" really :shrug:
well, autotune would refer to cars, or perhaps a tuning program for cars.
Kinko's is a well known Copy Center in the US, but could also be cryptic for tubes
Raseed I have no idea. neither does google. . .
But for some reason I'm thinking harold and kumar go to white castle - but that could just be pulled from the ether. . .
http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/b...h_IMG_3092.jpg
Not the best picture that I took yesterday, but today is raining and I just cant let THIS happen :p:
I just hope we won't have to strap the waterblock somehow to the car ...
Fun would be if we would have to run around the street holding a complete WC loop strapped on us and someone would have to take a picture of us and other people on the street staring, wondering: "What the F?"
Sorry for the tardiness, but here's my addition:
I couldn't find anybody to borrow a bike from, so I just put my block on a couple on a bike rack near our campus radio station. To relate to the Queen song, the pictures were taken in [I say black, I say white] and there is a sign on the block saying [say cheese!]. No photoshop, B+W done in camera.

There were no bikes near road signs, but I did get a picture of a sign...

Thats cool that your going to FIT paul! I applied and was accepted there and went to visit, melbourne is a really nice place - I would certainly ride a motorcycle and surf all the time if I lived down there :cool:
Rpi was closer to home though, generally makes life easier (but not too close ;))
Yeah, now that I'm here I'd love to be going to RPI, but the weather is beautiful and the beach is intoxicatingly close - I was there at midnight last night - and classes are just getting geared up. Hopefully cars will be involved in the next stretch of this contest; I am actually trying to find good motoring roads right now to take the ol' MINI to.
On a side note, can you shoot me a PM about your fraternity? I've seen signs for it around and rush week is approaching...
Hmm... Kinkos... This isn't another song reference to I'm on a Boat by the lonely island is it? T-Pain autotunes his voice...
EDIT: Raseed? No idea -.-
been thinking more about raseed and you know it's an anagram for erased??????
closest I can come is a reference to some comedy shows. I ain't in the competition though
Paul has got it! (sorry to you European folks, I only know american pop culture references really ;)) +1 points to paul
Your water block is On A Boat!
Simon Says put your waterblock on a boat, T-Pain (Faheem Raseed Najm) and Andy Sandberg must be present - bonus points for having references from the song, and an extra bonus point is available to whom ever includes my favorite pop culture reference from the song.
Photoshop is allowed but you must use the same waterblock from your previous pictures.
this round will run exactly 86,400 seconds so be quick!
holy ****, no I'm totally lost, guess I'll need two shots of Jack and then return
Hmm school starts tomorrow, 24 hour deadline, no problem.
Being so lucky that I live by the sea, boat will not impose a problem ;)
Hahaha, the best round so far !!!
I had so much fun making the boat and the figures... Took mi some time to make it float, i had to put in a box cooler from 754 to move the gravity axis but it works :)
http://picasaweb.google.com/jozefkoc...nSays3rdRound#
josi won, that has to be 500 bonus points
Agreed, Hats off to Josifek
Good work!
Alright, here's my shot at it. T-Pain loves Ferrari everything, even Ferrari waterblocks! There are also lots of good references from the song... like T-Pain's bubble :ROTF::rofl:

uh SD? It's my wedding anniversary today and my wife would kill me if I'm 'playing' around on the computer. I may need an extra 43200 secs or so. . . .
Duly noted logan, just get it up when you've got the time and keep up in the other rounds on time ;)
Paul and Josifek, great :D
http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/b...ba/contest.jpg
:p:
Anyway, this picture is kinda useless after Josifek work :clap:
Seems I'll have to make some sort of a boat too, living in a place where there's no sea, lake, river ... just a couple of ponds :rofl:
ok... I cant go Lego for 2 consecutive rounds... time to think in another direction
EDIT: idea strikes!!!!!
EDIT 2: I like asas model boat. Nice finish and attention to detail bro!
EDIT 3 (lol) I was lost on the references, so went-a googling and wiki-ing.... is it Andy Samberg?
behold the power of mspaint
http://i26.tinypic.com/2rfpmd0.png
the sad part is that i have a boat and im to lazy to go outside with some print outs and take a pic
hah paint & origami skillls :D

:D he sad Andy Sandberg , not Andy Samberg :D , its a mess but my paint skillz suck lol
I thought I would do something different and put the block on a background of boats through a crappy paint.net chop job of a bunch of stuff.
As a bonus, it is the right size to be used as a Blackberry Storm wallpaper! :D
Hope you guys like my image. I think my kids now hate me.
Although it's children exploitation at it's finest.

Tsaroth, LOL, your kids are cute. :)

here is my photo :

with the (un)famous Santana champagne create in collaboration with Carlos Santana :D
I think this round is officially closed in 3 minutes.
Sorry a bit late, but I have been busy today... =)
http://kirkedam.mine.nu/kwk/Diverse/DSC_0062.jpg
Hopefully SD accepts this. It is after the 24 hour deadline.
and I'm officially swinging like on a boat .... saw somw friends at a pub ... I ask Sniipe Dogg for a couple of minutes to get my senses together ...
I know, saw your post, crossing my fingers ;)
This was supposed to be the result.
http://kirkedam.mine.nu/kwk/Diverse/DSC_00622.JPG
This probably cost me a little to much sleep, but bah, no pain no gain ;)
See ya tomorrow.
Yup, guess my bad luck ... I won't poat then ... Waiting for SD
hmmm, sorry I must enforce the 24hr deadline :) next round will be announced soon ;) great pictures guys, I am gonna have to make this more difficult eh?
I dunno, I just keep getting the lucky guesses on the topics :)
EDIT: what are points looking like, BTW? Or is this, 'Whose Line is it Anyway?'
Well, in fairness to the others I think I may have to bow out of that round even though I did 'officially' get an extension.
But I can play by the rules as well and make no exceptions (but we did drink 2 bottles of (not)Santana Champagne, ate fantastic Irish Crab, Pave d'Auge, a couple baguettes, and a little mango balsamic salad, so I enjoyed my night).
Ok man, good show :up: I am glad the night with you wife went well, real life things affect you much more than internet things (for normal-ish people) so they have to come first ;) :rofl:
I... (lol) missed the boat. Was prepping for benching on Wednesday and benching Thursday. Im out, but it fun while it lasted.
Good luck to the guys who are left!
The way that Fugger ran his Simon Says contest was that if you missed a round, you were eliminated. I don't know if Ian is running it in the same fashion, but that would be my guess.
I guess I'm out too.....
No guys, I'm almost 100% sure that you HAVE TO COMPLETE each round to advance.
It's not just points. If you don't do your simon says you are eliminated.
Like Ash said, it is a competition afterall.
This is what I've gathered from it though.
Ian?
we'll just wait for clear posting of the rules eh?
Tsaroth has it right guys, but there will be lots of prizes ;) I think being out now is on the edge of if you get a prize or not
yw Kallenator :)
Simon Says cook breakfast for your waterblock, its gonna have to be strong and healthy for the rest of the contest - make sure you include some tubing so it can eat!
Last one in is a rotten egg ;)
damnit! i cant beleive i missed out on this! the last contest was so fun! aaaahhhhh
we're out out right?
