On Wednesday Shawn announced a contest, where fans of Chainmail Bikini can try to re-create CB characters and situations in the videogame of their choice and send in the screenshots.
Just to kick things off, Shawn posted an example, which I believe came from Blizzard’s Twenty Dollar Bill Printing Press World of Warcraft.
Ramgar. Naked Ramgar. From World of Warcraft. |
The bar has been set. It has not been set particularly high. Surely you can do better than this. Please do enter. If nobody else enters, Shawn will end up winning with his entry above. In which case he’ll have to present himself with his own artwork, signed by himself, which is sure to be an awkward situation for everyone. See the full list of prizes, rules, and qualifiers on the announcement page.

Ever wondered what's in all those quest boxes you've never bothered to read? Get ready: They're more insane than you might expect.

This made me laugh. :-)
can we use this?? http://www.ugo.com/channels/comics/heromachine2/heroMachine2.asp
I suppose not.. as it’s not a video game.. but pretty kewl and as appropriate a topic for me to share it.
Dang! If that’s poor Ramgar naked, then he needs a good lawyer to go after the surgeon who did the sex change operation! Maybe Gloria Allred…
:-)
Where’d Ramgar go??
Just when I was thinking I couldn’t enter (for lack of video game), I realized I could do something with NWN 1. Then I saw somebody already entered with NWN, and did lots better than I could.
I just want it to be clear that my Dwarf Hunter has had a boar named Ramgar for some months now, as an homage. :)
