August 2011 Monkey Games: Your Chance To Win, Week Three

Friday, August 19, 2011

At last! They’ve arrived at last! Behold our special 2011 Woot Monkey Games Monkey! As you’ve probably already noticed, our staff has been going nuts for the 2011 Woot Monkey Games, and we want to give all of you a chance to participate at home. That’s why, each Friday in August, you’ve got a chance to win one of the very special, very limited monkeys pictured above. Once they’re gone, we won’t ever do this batch again. Here’s your chance to own a little part of Woot history! But before send you inside for this week’s event, we should note our previous two challenges are over and done, and the winners have been chosen. Congratulations to the following forum contestants!

                       PAPER AIRPLANE TOSS          HULA HOOPING
                       1st place: irpip                     1st place: 722lad
                       2nd place: spilzer                 2nd place: epixinc
                       3rd place: sjyokel

Well done to the medal winners! Email your details (edit: like name, address and shirt size) to commissioner@woot.com and they’ll get your prize package sorted out. And for all you non-medal participants, we’re still impressed. It took great courage to make those videos, and we won’t forget how you sacrificed your dignity for the amusement of others. Are you ready to try again?

This is your chance to win a Monkey and medal of your very own. Just read the contest rules inside, then post a link to your video in the comments. Here’s a little hint about what event you’ll be doing this time… think you can guess?

That’s right, this week is Entry Period 3 and you’ll be competing in rubber band archery! The short version is that you’ll be trying to shoot five plastic cups off a table as fast as you can. Film yourself and upload the footage to your favorite host-of-choice, then post the link in this thread before Thursday, August 25th at noon, and our judges will make the decision on who gets the medals, the shirts, and the limited edition 2011 Monkey Games monkey. Full rules and legal are right here so be sure to read them carefully before you start… and good luck!
