2010 homemade water gun competition
Written by Ben on 06-19-2010
What: A contest to make the most innovative water launching device including but not limited to water guns and water balloon launchers. Launching in containers more rigid than balloons is forbidden. The water launchers do not have to be intended for use in water wars. Deadline: August 31th, midnight EST Criteria: Below are some things to keep in mind when designing. I will judge based roughly on what is listed below. Idea and creativeness - New ideas or creative approaches to old ideas are most desirable. Note that doing an old idea particularly well may require very creative approaches. Quality of build - Is the device durable? Is it attractive? Function - Does the device do what it claims? Prizes: There are no prizes aside from the glory of winning the contest. I will update this thread until the criteria and other information is to my satisfaction. Good luck. :)

supersoaker.org to expire
Written by Ben on 03-27-2010
I'm going to allow supersoaker.org, a domain I've owned for two years, to expire. If anyone wants it, let me know and I could transfer it to you. Edit 2010-07-13: The domain name name expired months ago and I no longer own it. Do not ask me if it is still available because it is not. It looks like a squatter owns it now; I suggest working through them if you want it.
