• 1st Round ASSCAT Challenge: VOTING CLOSED!

  ——————————————————————————————————–
  ***UPDATE***
  Voting for 1st Round is now over.  Check back here on Thursday, August 18th at 7pm EST for 2nd round challenges and prizes update.  Thank you for voting!  It’s not over though.  Remember to come back later to vote for your favorites in the next round.  They’re counting on you!
  ——————————————————————————————————–
  

  

  It has been a pleasure checking out all the contestants’ 1st round submissions!  There were so many memorable responses to the first ever ASSCAT Challenge Contest already.  People were doing crazy things like planking on a tank/clones of themselves/a moving car, molesting poor statues, singing a Bruno Mars parody, being manhandled by a stop motion Pikachu, creating bacon cake, going on a faux date with an ASSCAT, showing some skin, and getting a YouTube celebrity to help them out.  Simply amazing!

  In the end, 36 contestants managed to do the minimum 3 out of 6 challenges needed to move on to the 2nd round.  We didn’t think so many people would follow through, so good job for exceeding our expectations!

  Team ASSCAT ( @FlipGuy31O, @Sonychak, @Junbelievable08, @Cakalusa, @Roadlesstaken, @Timmmmmmy ) also wants to make a special shout out to the 14 contestants that went above and beyond by completing all 6 1st round challenges:  @Hello_Bianca, @i__LIVESTRONG, @ArmyWife4Life2007, @thesoftlights@blackhk, @JustPlainMorgie, @pika_whoosh, @smile4leena, @TwinkleSprinkles, @lilytran@lovelyish, @ohveryoung, @Stupid_systemus, @xtineey, @wyrdkismet, and @Sheegwa.  By doing so, they unlocked this achievement as well as earned the maximum amount of points they can receive from doing challenges alone.  I hope you all keep it up in the next round!

  Voting is now open CLOSED.  Please comment below with your vote (2 vote per Xangan) for the contestant you believe completed their 1st round challenges the best.  Contestants may vote for themselves or for someone else.  Votes from suspicious accounts (i.e. ones that were just created) may or may not be accepted.  You may base your vote on specific challenges that stood out to you or a contestant’s overall performance.  ASSCAT members will be distributing their votes (10 votes per ASSCAT) to the contestants we believe were the most creative and gave the best effort in their submissions, so we recommend you all do the same.

  Before you vote, please take the time to view as many of the contestants’ submissions as possible so you can make the most well-informed decision.  Here are all the submissions, for your convenience (contestants: let me know if I accidentally left anything out):

  (Last updated 8/17 11pm)

  Alright, back to the matter at hand.  Voting is open from August 15th until 11:59am EST on Wednesday, August 17.  All the contestants will benefit from any votes they receive in the 1st round, especially since points carry over to the 2nd round, so don’t forget to support your favorites!  The 2nd round will begin on the evening of August 18th, so watch out for that post. 

  As a reminder, the contestant with the most points altogether from 1st and 2nd round will receive a $100 Amazon Gift Card (2nd and 3rd place will get prizes too, TBA).  The contestant with the best individual challenge receives an iPod Shuffle.  Finally, we will do a raffle to give out 1 year premiums and BFN store prizes for contestants that are able to complete both rounds.  Aren’t we generous?

  If there are no questions, go ahead and proceed…
