How me? Why, I would never think of trying to get my hands on every dollar that NG hands out. I mean, I never have won a contest here. *hides money from last contest*

You can still go to a college campus and promote NG. It doesn't matter if you go to the college or not, you just gotta promote on a campus. :)

Hell yeah! I'm not too concerned about the money though it would be nice. I'm not sure why I never thought of making flyers.

Probably won't be able to send any pics though. I'm not really doing anything extravagant, but know I am helping.

Man, I totally wish I could do this. But knowing BYU, I would be violating the honor code somehow. So at the risk of getting booted out of school. I can't do it.

lol it would probably cost more then $1000 to get the NG logo tattoo'd across your body. Then by time it healed the contest would be over..

You know, I would totally do this if I wasen't a freshman. As of right now I don't want to make myself look totally weird by wandering around putting up those flyers.

YEAH YEAH I'm afraid to sponser the site. Maybe my junior year or something when a bunch of people know me, and would just laugh at it rather then mock me and decide to make false accusitions that I suck.

However if I find any flash animators at my school I'll be sure to point them in this direction.

I try to promote this site regularly anyway. I show some of my favorites at my University's Video Game Club and I used to use the tell a friend option rather frequently, until people told me to stop.

I'm a little curious as to how I will get the message out in a truly spectacular fashion, if I drop money on the project and don't win all I will have to feed myself is satisfaction.

I love the idea, shameless free advertising,

We need more variations/color on Flyers, or should we make our own flyers?

Ah, what a sweet contest. However, I probably won't be doing this. But it's good for the people who are willing to do so.

That is an awesome idea. Is this only open to college students tho? It seems anyone could promote this anywhere and they should still be elligible.

I'll repeat... You don't need to be a college student, but please do it on a college campus. I don't want kids in high schools doing it because we shouldn't encourage that sort of thing. The big motivation is it is fall, kids are starting college and I want NG to spread around the dorms as much as possible. We gotta push these servers harder, they aren't running at full capacity. :)

I told a lot of people about NG when I was in junior high and it spread like hotcakes... since I'm not in college, and my sister is I can tell her to spread the word of NG.

And also... Tom, I know that this is very off-topic, but will the most "Popular Recommendations for the Sonic Collection" ever get into the Collection?

The plan:

Step one, download and edit (for a colour effect) the flyers
Step two, get drunk with my mates
Step three, wallpaper my old Uni halls with flyers in an NG tank stylee late one night
Step four, get up early enough to get a pic#
Step five, forget to email the pics
^_^
Step six, whine 'cos I'm a poor student and really could do with £200 spending money :P

I would get my bro to do it, since he's in college (University of Miami). But he'd probably think it's stupid. Although he does some stupid stuff, so maybe him and his Fraternity friends can do it.

Tom, my bro isn't a member, but if he were to participate, could he still send in the pictures and have a chance at winning?
