Bubblegum Bandit November 11, 2005 Share Bubblegum Bandit Member November 11, 2005 Thanks to everyone that submitted their ideas. It was basically boiled down to these four. However, there is a possibility that the last one could get thrown out pending reaction from potential sponsors. In the event that that should happen, we will bounce to the second place finisher.

Fatty November 12, 2005 Share Fatty GC Founder November 12, 2005 If it remains this close (no clear cut winner), the staff will gather and discuss the pros and cons of each, including the ability to integrate the theme into the site and on the T-shirt, and make a decision from there...

Wolfsblood November 12, 2005 Share Wolfsblood Member November 12, 2005 While I think the "May contain Canadians" is histerical, I had to go with Broadband of Brothers. I Love the implication that we're a brotherhood. I think that's one of the things that made last year's slogan Fellowship of the Ping. so good. Both "Fellowship" and "brotherhood" imply a gathering of family, or close friends who share commn interests or goals. That said, I'd also happily wear a shirt stating that it "might contain Canadians". lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking the image from the series where they are all on the hill with their guns and the shadow in the back (I'm sure most of you know what I am talking about - even though I can't describe it well.) Well, instead of a gun, it could be a cable in their hands... or instead a hill, it could be a mess of cords they are standing on. Eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Nice idea - you could let each man carry his own piece of equipment, like the first man carries a monitor, the second a table, the third a load of cables and so on. Then you could also turn the black shadows into the shadows of the gc board members so you can tell that fatty for example is carrying a monitor etc. And then at the back sneaking off in the opposite direction could be clueless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playaa November 13, 2005 Share Playaa Member November 13, 2005 I'm still loving the May Contain Canadians.

Bubblegum Bandit November 13, 2005 Author Share Bubblegum Bandit Member November 13, 2005 I think the May Contain Canadians one is pretty funny to. But from a perception standpoint it just may not work. We know we're using it as humor, however sponsors may not want to donate a product to an event that COULD be perceived in a negative light. The FF staff is going to need to discuss this should that slogan end up with the most votes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
