I might have won. But I probably blinked and didn't realize it, heh.

I won! YTMNDs are difficult to make truly interactive; thanks for the change of pace. And thank you for making it beat-able.

4 for: music not lasting the length of the contest, illegible text due to size and often inappropriate colour, not including the shadow of his face in the hue mask and random images from Densha Otoko for no reason. You can make this YTMND perfect! For all Internets.

After someone mentioned that the music lasts as long as the GIF, I watched it in Firefox and it did. Therefore, IE7 beta 2 sucks for YTMND. Nuke IE7.

This becomes doubly as hilarious as I sit here and watch it topless. Because he is now staring at my boobs. And GOD I LOVE THIS MUSIC.

that was incredibly easy. i never even felt the urge to blink. i am the stare master! Same here. i just focused on the music and looked at his right eye and kinda dozed off with my eyes open. but yea, get rid of distractions, since you cant even read the text.
July 11th, 2006

It's like a boss battle for my eyes. One day I shall defeat him, if not with my eyes, MY BARE HANDS.

well-suited music, original idea, and perfect execution. I bow to you, Cosmopanda. How long do you have to stare before you win exactly?

BEST YTMND EVER. Music syncs with gid (good song btw) and the gif is fantastic. I found myself actually staring, until I realised it was just a gif... haha. I was half expecting his face to turn into happycat, but was glad to be wrong.
