RoboBlitz T-shirt contest: Day 1 [update 1]


Some of you may recall that I was a little jealous of the RoboBlitz shirt that Naked Sky gave to Gamertag Radio's Godfree. It looks like Naked Sky's Tian Mu (who we interviewed yesterday) was listening, because he sent us not one, not two, but five T-shirts to give away. We have three men's shirts and two just for the ladies. Starting today, we'll give one away every day. What do you have to do to win? Well, we're not sure, but we'll think of something new every day.

Today's T-shirt is a men's large. Bearing a picture of Blitz the robot on the front, and the RoboBlitz title smartly emblazoned on the right sleeve. RoboBlitz is all about physics, so if you'd like to have this shirt as your very own (your preciousssss), all you have to do is tell us something fun you can do with physics. You know, things like kicking a ball, using a lever, or curb stomping a Locust. So, think something up, leave it in the comments, and we'll choose a winner completely at random. If you don't win today, just come back tomorrow. And if you don't win tomorrow ... well, then you'll have to come back Monday, but still, that's an awesome shirt, right? Get to it and good luck.

Update: This contest is now closed, and we are on to Day 2. Check out our new contest here.

General contest stuff: Only one entry per person. Winners will be contacted via email in order to obtain shipping information. This contest is open to residents of the United States only.

41. Physics? Physics schmisics, useless in outer space and only useful for knife throwing down here on Earth.
Though, physics in video games are awesome. Case in point, Tony Hawk Project 8.

42. Curb stomping locusts is great and all,but I've also learned that with the proper leverage, you can try to curb stomp giant crabs. Weak points = massive damage.

Nothing like playing out an old old, not so funny, meme.

43. Personally? I'd like to put a cantaloupe in a slingshot and use the physics of wind resistance, force, angle, and gravity to see how accurately I can hit people leaving Gamestops with pre-orders for games that won't come out until the third quarter of the next year.

44. I like to see how many times I have to bash my head into the wall to make me forget that Halo 3 won't be out for another 6 months at least...So far it hasn't worked.

47. I'd use physics to freeze myself until Halo 3 comes out.

48. When playing FEAR and the killing shot of the 10mm HV Penetrator pins the enemy to the wall from whichever location it hit. Being able to hit the enemy at angles and have them get pinned to the wall sitting a few feet off the ground. Even when you catch an arm or leg shot and they are stuck dangling by the extremity.

50. slap a hot woman's ass, thats enough physics right there :)

51. Hang someone by their underwear on a hook while letting gravity do it's work.

Though that was not really fun to experience, that was just highschool.
