Rules:

1. The contest will run from now until the end of the month although, just as in football, I will allow for "extra time" after full time has been reached, on a discretionary basis.

2. A formal declaration of intent is not needed to play, but feel free to do so in the comments or PM me. Making a site is enough to play, though.

3. For a site to be considered, it must include one of the 2 visual assets uploaded to this site. (YTMND asset numbers are 3729857, 3729858). You may use the audio asset as well, but it is not required (although I will be just tickled pink). You are of course free to edit the visual assets in way you wish.

4. In order for your site to be considered, I have to see it. I am the only judge. It is the contestant's responsibility to make sure that I am aware of his/her site. (Lol, "her") Here's how I'll be finding sites:

i. Reading this site's comments. (This is the most reliable way to make sure your site gets seen.)
ii. Reading my PMs. (This is also pretty reliable, but if for some reason I don't get the PM, you may get missed.)
iii. Putting "RooneyTMND" in your site's keywords. (This is only as reliable as ytmnd's search engine, which is generally fine but has been known to go down from time to time.)

5. First prize, as chosen by me, gets a site sponsorship. By default, the sponsorship will go to the contest-winning site, but I could also sponsor whatever site the winner requests.

(I will also give a "Hivemind Award" for anyone that makes a site that happens to be close to one I was thinking about making. Prize TBD.)

6. Any rules that require further clarification will be clarified here in the site comments.


OK, that's it. Good luck, here's hoping to see some good sites.

Great to see a user supported contest... i would play but sports is like kryptonite to me.

But I think you'd come up with something super creative. I don't see why the sites should be sports-themed; I certainly hope they're not all just sports ytmnds. I hope you reconsider.

I'm in. Not sure if I can top your original site, but from the looks of things I may be the only contestant.

If I were competent, I would use Break Dance Party in some fashion.

If I were competent.

We have to specifically use those assets, no edits? I might try it.

This looks like a lot of work. Do you have any easier gifs?

SPOILER: [spoil]The "Background" gif, which is hidden from view by the tiled "Foreground", is a gif of Rooney cut out from the actual footage, to be used as an exploitable. I'm hoping that will make things easier, but I also want people to put some effort into their sites as well.[/spoil]

Also, made one from one of brettleemovies' sites. That guy is fast becoming one of my favorites, if only for reminding me of Showbiz Pizza.

Yep. I'm blowing the whistle on extra time tonight. Going through the sites, and I'm gonna make a site to announce the winner.
