One more little contest before the end of the year…&nbsp; 🙂  
  
The Splash Game

The Splash Game has officially launched, in the Yo-Yo Exhibition section of the forum, and it is basically an activity where you look at two sides of a yo-yo, and vote on which side the splash looks better.

You can read more by following the link.&nbsp; If you have questions about the game, you can ask them in that section, but please read the stickied threads first.

Contest Details:

The contestants shall do the following:

1.&nbsp; Indicate your intent to participate here, so I know you’ll be posting for contest purposes.&nbsp;  
2.&nbsp; You must indicate which yo-yo you plan to post.&nbsp; One for the contest, but as many as you like.&nbsp; &nbsp;  
3.&nbsp; Post the yo-yo comparison photo in the Splash Game section, per game rules.  
4.&nbsp; The most “comment” votes (left or right) by Wednesday (midnight), of all contestant posts in the Splash Game…wins.&nbsp; Set up the standard poll per rules, but only votes in the thread comments (specifically left or right) will be counted.&nbsp; In the contest post, you will ask voters to vote by poll, and by comment.&nbsp;  
5.&nbsp; Only forum members registered as of the time of this post, qualify to participate and vote.&nbsp;  
6.&nbsp; Use your own original photos please.

My decision will not determine the winner, so I am able to assist anyone with creating a collage, if necessary.&nbsp; In the event of a tie, my favorite player will cast a final vote to determine the winner (you can guess who my favorite player is).

I decided to do something a bit different with prizes.&nbsp; Instead of offering one prize that you win for this contest, I decided to allow the winner to choose among various prizes, which one they want out of the bunch.&nbsp; I think it is better to allow the winner to decide what they could use most.

Prize options (pick your prize):

NIP Duncan Echo (red)  
NIB Delrin Severe (black)  
MIB Spyy Supra (gold dust)  
NIP Duncan Freehand (blue)  
NIB Pair of Loop 1080s. (red/black)  
MIB One Drop Yelets (yellow)  
New YYE leather yo-yo holder, by TotalArtist black/silver)

It will ship within the U.S.A. If you’re interested, indicate your interest here, then work on your post.&nbsp; Doing so ASAP might give you an advantage, you never know.

Special thanks to YoyoExpert, for making The Splash Game possible.&nbsp; 🙂

^&nbsp; Sounds like a good one.&nbsp; For those who don’t have a splash yo-yo to post…you can always be a voter and help these guys out.&nbsp; Don’t forget to comment on their posts though, in addition to the poll, to indicate your preference (left, right).

By the way, this H.O.T. could use a few more votes.&nbsp; I think I may have posted so many H.O.T.s&nbsp; that it slipped through the cracks.

Make sure that you post something per the rules, rare with unique engraving on either side maybe, or like a 3yo3 acrylic plastic where the color patterns are different on either side…something unique the way a splash is unique is ideal.

If you believe your compulsion is different than other compulsions in terms of the color patterns and placement of the colors and so on…feel free to post it. The target yo-yos, and what makes them most interesting to look at is the degree of uniqueness in color/pattern/engraving.

Splashes are like fingerprints…no two the same. I would accept a rare solid with different engravings/colors on each side. Acid wash can have different interesting unique patterns, so they apply as well. I’m not as familiar with the compulsion, so unaware if they are all exactly alike.

The appeal for the game is looking at yo-yos that are somewhat unique in some way…rare in appearance is the target. I let a few early posts go, because people are getting used to the section and what it requires, but I want to keep that idea consistent throughout. 🙂

If you think your compulsion is pretty rare and unique in color pattern and so on…it could be the one.

No problem. Casting votes is just as helpful. I don’t own a lot of splashes relative to my collection as a whole. I’m more of a solids type. Of the splashes I have, many of them are a specific colorway. So, I know this won’t apply to everyone.

I’m in! I don’t mind paying shipping in the unlikely event that I win, but if that’s not favourable then just chuck the prize to someone else. I just want to take part, sounds like fun.

I’ll be entering my blue/silver C3 Krown. Has a very different splash pattern on each side. 🙂
