Will FF have some sort of contest...

Will you have any sort of contest when the game is released to public?some contest to celebrate the great Fortress game on HL2 engine goes public.
If so i was thinking of donating the official steel logo as a price to that contest.
If you guys have some ideas for a nice contest with fortress spirit in mind just post it...

I vote that we all see how quickly we can overload the servers. That sounds fun.

What would YOU do for a solid steel FF logo? I can think of a few things.

Something where you do something to win something would be my definition of a contest?

Just let it work people's minds until someone can think of a good contest to add on top of it

I would rig the contest just to get the steel logo, and then laugh at everyone.

That's how I imagine my death, but instead of people I'm laughing at, it'll be the police as I run at them with my balls out, but they think it's a bomb and they shoot me.

It has to be true, I read it in the Bible.

Stop talking.

Yeah, give it more than one day for people to think about this.

i think the contest should revolve around something you have to do ingame, then post a .dem of it on the forums.

I can't think of a specific idea right now but I'm sure some good ones will pop up eventually.

Sounds like a nice idea to me

How about the dev team take 20 or so obscure screen shots of places within FF maps and then the first person to successfully identify all the locations wins the prize?

Or alternatively, some sort of amusing screenshot and caption competition with the winner voted for by the community!

Any contest should either be a basic tornument which players would enter via message boards or e-mail first.

Or just fininding an easter egg, or series of easter eggs in each level. Perhaps finding 10 small metallic TF logos which are hidden in all of the originally released levels. First to find 10 in each one gets that prize. Question being, there would need to be an active update so that we actualy know who finds them and who photoshoped a few screenies.

Flying up on high
Moving like the passing wind
The scout caps the flag

Patience is golden
A true hunter bides his time
Boom! Headshot! fucker.

My own RPG
An SSG and some grens
Just call me badass

Spam, spam, spam, spam, spam
Spam, spam, spam, lovely spam
That's a demoman

The air : cold and still
My comrade dies in my arms
It's just another day

I like those big butts
And I cannot lie, i <3
HWGuy

The bitch you hated
Filth infatuated, yeah
Firestarter, yeah

The man with no face
And affinity with blades
The darkest shadow

Clang clang, clang clang clang
That's the sound I like to hear
