In the coming days, I may change the theme etc of this site from Regulus to something else, because Regulus is getting a bit repetitive among WordPress users lol.

The Author Contest!

Posted in Stuff on May 4, 2008 by ζÔ§Η

Hi!  How ya doin’?

I have news in the Author Contest.  Entries are now closed.  We received a grand total of 17 entries, which is awesome!

What happens now?

I have added all 17 people who entered as “Contributers” on the site.  Contributers can post, but before their post is shown to the public, I (the admin) must approve it. 

The task for the 17 contributers is to make a post.  Here are the guidelines:

-Less than 500 words

-Your post must not contain who you are, your site, or anything like that.

-It can not be an introductory post (introducing yourself)

The point of this is to keep your identity a secret.  You can post about anything you like, whether it be about the weather, a current issue, something funny, about your pet giraffe, anything!  As long as you do not mention who you are in the post or anything that people can figure out who you are.

Those people need to have made the post by Friday, May 9th. 

On Saturday, May 10th, I will make another post regarding the Author Contest.  In the post will be everyone’s posts that they have made.  But nobody will know who’s post is who’s. 

You are not allowed to tell people what post is yours.

Next week, there will be a poll for which post was the best.  The results of that poll will determine who the new authors will be.

To sum it all up:

~All the author contest entrants are added as contributers

~The contributers must make a post about anything they like as long as they keep their identitiy a secret

~The posts must be made by May 9th

~On May 10th, all the posts will be posted, but no-one will know who posted what.  There will be a poll which determines which post is the best, and the winning post author becomes the site author!

So, contributers, make those posts!  If you fail to make a post by Friday, May 9th, or you reveal your identity, you will be disqualified and won’t be allowed to be an author.

~Josh

P.S. Here is a list of the WordPress usernames I have added.  (The names are in brackets)

chubbchubb (Adam)

clubpenguinhelpdesk (squishy133)

coolpengu (cool pengu)

feblos (kmamrosh/katie)

gamelords (”Eli”, name unknown)

Anyways, now it’s May, and I just wanted to give you some stats for April.

Total Views: 5,819 (monthly record)

Highest Views in One Day: 288 on three occasions

Number of Posts: 8

Milestones Reached: 10,000 Hits

New Features: Ultimate Ads page released, Widget Contest winner announced, Untimate Ads page deleted, Author Contest Announced

What’s coming up in May? An end to the Author Contest, new pages, a new header contest at the end of May and much, much more!

~J

Finally - A Post, A Post, At Long Last A Post!

Posted in Stuff on April 30, 2008 by ζÔ§Η

Boo!

Ha scared ya =P

Yes, I feel better now, not 100%, but my sore throat is no longer sore and stuff.  Just got a cough and a runny nose.  Thank’s for your nice messages and stuff ;)  No I mean it lol.

Anyways, I just need to tidy a few things up.

Ultimate Ads has been closed down and *dun dun dun* deleted because I’m afraid it just isn’t working, lol. 

The blogroll requirements have been removed.  Now if you want to get on my blogroll you only need to do one of two things: either add me to your blogroll or put my widget on your site.

the author contest has a new deadline.  On May 3rd, entries will be closed and I will begin the second stage of selecting th enew author(s).  Don’t delay, get your entries in!

I need new pages.  And I’m thinking about doing a “bffl” page.  What are your thoughts on that?  Can you suggest any more pages?

Challenges and ur pick haven’t been updated for like more than two weeks.  I apologise for this, but they will be updated this weekend.

I’m sorry for the lack of posts in the month, but I’m sure tha tI will be posting more in May.  I’m still busy with school stuff, but I will try my best to find the time to post every day or so.

Okay, ummm…I kinda need your help with something.  I need you to copy and paste the form below into a comment, and fill it in.  Can you please do it?  All it is is rating my site.  It will help a lot and I will appreciate it if you will do it.

Pwitty…we have a winner!

Posted in Uncategorized on April 13, 2008 by ζÔ§Η

Hello everyone!  Lol.

How are you all?  I know it’s been a while since my last post, lol, but we had ANOTHER power blackout on Thursday, and I’ve been busy with school and stuff.

I was thinking, this site lacks in the picture department.  There’s basically no images here.  If you have any ideas about images, tell me through a comment!

Blinky left a comment yesterday saying that he missed my funny posts.

Lately, I’ve been so caught up with “deep posts” that I forgot all about the true me - the random one lol.  I can’t teach you everything in life.  You have to take life into your own hands and take whatever life throws at you.

There will be less deep posts, more images and *possibly* videos, and more fun!  Yaaaaaaaay!

Pictures contained in this post are from I Can Has Cheezburger

The Widget Contest ended on Friday, and today I have chosen the winner!  After careful consideration, and even a dentist survey…

humorous pictures

…I have chosen the winner!  There were five entrants, but two of them were not the right size - one was waaaaay to small and one was waaaaaay too big lol.

In 3rd place…is…

Mooseluver8!

In 2nd place…is…

Giambinny!

In 1st place is our winner,

Zoozoodeem!

Congratulations Zoozoodeem!  Email me at the_green_yoshi@hotmail.com to claim your prize.

Zoozoodeem’s submission:

I will be adding the widget to the Sidebar, so when you click it it redirects you to our site.  I will also add a scroll box with the code you can copy and paste into a text widget to link back to us!

If you didn’t win, don’t be sad…

funny pictures

…because more contests will be coming in the future!  Soon, I will be releasing a brand new contest!  Don’t panic!!! 

Funny Pictures

because this contest hasn’t been released yet.  I will be releasing it in the next few days.

That is all for now!

funny pictures

I’ll update this post if I update the site.

Helping - Why???

Posted in Stuff on April 7, 2008 by ζÔ§Η

‘Ello there!

How are you all doing?  Good, I suppose?

Well, listen, I haven’t written a deep post in ages, so I’m going to write one now.

Without those stupid Club Penguin Blogs, I probably would’nt know any of the people I now know through WordPress. 

People are constantly asked why they actually have a blog about a stupid game like Club Penguin.  Their response: To help others.

To help others HOW exactly?

By giving away secrets?  I’m pretty sure secrets are put in games to be discovered by individuals.  Not spread everywhere.  Hence the word “secrets”.

Sharing hacks?  Hacking is illegal, and it is appalling that children hack games when they are so young.  The hackers of Club Penguin today are the criminals of tomorrow.

Becoming famous?  On a game where you are a tiny avatar of a penguin???

Making videos…and posting them on Youtube to get famous?

I’ve said this alot, you can’t get famous on a game. 

But back to the point, why do you help?

You say you want to help, this could relate to anything, and you do (or at least I hope you do), but think about this for a moment.  Why do you help? 

Do you help to get recognition for it, or do you help because it is the right thing to do?

Josh

The Ultimate of all Ultimate!

Posted in Stuff on April 6, 2008 by ζÔ§Η

Ello there!

I’ve got a whole heap of news for you!  So here we go!

*The Challenges Page has been updated.  Click here to visit it.

*Ur pick has been updated.  Click here to visit it.

*A new page has been released: Ultimate Ads.  It is sort of like an ultimate blogroll.  Click here to visit it.
