- An idea, please make up a template for the overhang message, whatever that's called, inviting existing users and readers to sign up for the contest. Invite the readers into play along, although they may not know the codes. Maybe a stupid idea, but I am, if nothing else, stupid. Aleister 20:52 Chink New Yer
- It's not a bad idea. The only problem I can think of, is having a bunch of IP numbers in the register, getting them to email me their topics and getting them to actually put out an article. If they register as a user, it would be grand, and I'll deffinately help any new user who wants to participate, to understand how it works etc... --ShabiDOO 22:23, January 24, 2012 (UTC)
- What? It's a stupid idea. I said as much. Stupid stupid stupid. Let the IP's organize their own Happy IP Monkey contest, you are organizing the real deal. And where do we send our topics when the time is right, if it is ever right. Aleister 23:29 24-1-'12

- I'd participate, but my computer is very sick and about to go into the shop for repairs as soon as I can afford it (or a new computer instead most likely). I don't know at this point when I'll be on until this issue is resolved since my computer only works normally when running on battery power. Arrgh. -- Simsilikesims(♀GUN) Talk here. 18:28, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
- We need more judges. Just saying. --

- When my computer goes into the shop (unless I just get a new one), I won't even know when the judging is going on since I can't use the computer at work for that purpose. Hopefully if I made enough money this past pay period I can get a new one. -- Simsilikesims(♀GUN) Talk here. 18:48, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
- If you're devious and sneaky about it, you can just print the articles at work, read them, and then put the scores in sometime. Though, thats a lot of sneaking around just to judge a contest. Although, this isn't just any old contest isn't it? ;) --ShabiDOO 19:14, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
- I'd like to host, or help host this next time if you're okay with it. -- 19:24, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
