And The winner is...

Pinkhair !
with :

The Robber Baron of Warsong Gulch



And there are 3 reason why that makes me very happy. First one is that it was a movie that I really enjoyed watching, unique, witty and so well done. The second reason is that I know how Pinkhair needed a new computer, his old one almost died in the making of this machinima. I know that the über roXXor PC that he won is now in good hands, hands that will torture it with crazy 3D rendering and other pleasures we will witness with delight in the future.
Third reason is a selfish one, there is a small part of Olibith in this movie, and that's SO sweeeeeet !
Congratulations Pink, you deserved this big time.

Here you'll find the complete results of the contest.
"Le Terroriste" got an honorable mention, the last one of the 12 winners list to get promotional t-shirt and stickers. Maybe the jury was not the pothead type needed for my nonsenses.
Maybe next time.

Happy self centered Gnome !

The Wegame Machinima Contest entries period is now over and results will be announced on friday. 120 entries !!!
Can you believe that ? I guess now having a machinima contest without a +3000$ first price will be impossible.
This week end came 3 splendid new movies, Martin Falch's Divided Soul, Fireboltproductions "Way of Life" and Pinkhair's "The Robber Baron of Warsong Gulch".
Pinkhair told me there was a reference to me in his movie, wich made me feel really honored even before I saw this :

Why nobody ever eats turbans ?

Oh my god, I've been chewed to death ! hehe. Thanks a lot for this Pink ^^. And by the way, Pinkhair made a fantastic wallpaper from "Busted" I always wanted to blog here, I think it's time to ! :

Let's kick some ice !!!

Anyway, this is gonna be a tough competition. I think next time there should be categories because you cannot seriously compare a South Park episode with Return of the King, even if both were machinimas. My only chance would be that the jury smokes too much pot before choosing, and I don't think Oxhorn smokes anything green, God only knows ^^
But, hey ! a Wegame T shirt would be cool since this year was already a very generous one for the Gnome !

Talking about gifts, Baron sent me this screenshot of Awilo Long'Omba, Grand Master Cooking Trainer in Dalaran :

Something tells me Long'Omba is just about to hurt me...

He also sent me this link to an amazing work in progress. Do you remember the GnoViBrator ?


Well, Kilh is making a real GnoViBrator, you absolutely got to see his sculpture blog

Giving head, that's a nice post title !!


I'll be back here with the results of the Wegame contest !
