COVER ME IN KETCHUP!

That random profile site faceparty that isn't as popular now myspace, bebo and facebook have taken over have launched a competition today, that some of you may be interested in!


Here's it all copied from the site, or go to www.faceparty.com

Ooh, what a saucy idea!

It's been bloody years since we had a decent competition, so here it bloody is!

How it Works:
To enter the competition, get urself covered in Ketchup, take a pic of yerself and email it to ketchup@faceparty.com along with your member name. We'll choose the best 99 (we're looking for humour, shock horror, stupidity, or creativity) and then we'll pop 'em on the website and put 'em to the public vote!

Extraordinary Prizes!...
We have some amazing prizes ...and some HiDEoUS prizes. So, here's the catch: the members won't only choose the winner, they'll also choose your prize! This means you'll really have to win over their hearts, so you gotta go all out!

The Prizes:


Woolworth's Bag full of Octopii
Could come in very handy. (Very handy indeed.)

A Pie with 8 Edges
Made especially to a recipe of YOUR choice, by a REAL Chef! You could choose Rhubarb & Custard, Full English Breakfast, Turnip & Vinegar, Candyfloss & Popcorn - the choice is yours! ...but this isn't just ANY pie. This one has EIGHT EDGES!*

* 8 Edged Pies; Patent pending, Patent number 3045273, all rights reserved ...but willingly infringed by Faceparty - I mean, what are they gonna do? 6 months in prison for baking a pie? We'll take the risk for you :)

2 Free Tickets to Glastonbury Festival
...the golden prize! But will the members vote it for you!?! The ketchup is SURELY worth the risk! All travel expenses plus £200 spending money included.

Explanation why the Old Biddies have gone from FP!
...apart from the fact we don't wanna see any old biddies drenched in sauce. A lot of you have been asking us if & why we're taking the oldies off the site. This could be your chance to find out ze TRUTH!

(Yes, they ARE all real prizes!)

Get Started!...
To enter the competition, get urself covered in Ketchup, take a pic of yerself and email it to ketchup@faceparty.com along with your member name.

Will you be off to Glastonbury, or be responsible for 100 dead squid?

You got a month. Go get messy!

I wont be entering the actual facebook competition - I was thinking more of either some of us from here having our own personal comp, or just posting my own ketchup covered pics.

Of course I would prefer it if a few from here were doing it - yes even shock horror if like me you happen to have dared to be born before 1990 :lol:

soooooo - any takers? :twisted:

Hummm bit of a cheat but could no one dive into their PCs or picture archives and find a Ketchup picture to submit (with the consent of the person in question of course!).

You never know you might win a prize.

:D

On the subject of face party, i have been on the site for a long time - it was around even before facebook!

Here is a recent e mail i got from the facebook people they seem up for plenty of fun, you never know more mess to come. :D

*Message from Facebook*

We haven't been able to say "tits" or "bollocks" for 3 friggin' years!

All of a sudden we realise we'd stumbled onto this hideously ugly path, and before we knew it we ended up in corporate whoresville.

Our advertisers gradually demanded change... after change... after change to our website, making it impossible for us to say words like "tits". It made the whole thing suck. We used to be naughty to the hilt and get away with all sorts of mischief - remember how we used to get you guys to steal your teachers' staplers and post them to us for ransom?... or Grim Rita's "does my bomb look big in this?" rucksack?... or "Pope Idol" (which we launched the day after some vicar was found jacking off on here)... hehe. Best of all was when Grim Rita got arrested, cos she had you all send dirty letters to the grumpy accountant next door (over 250,000 letters - we didn't think the poor old sod would have to open every single one, just incase it was a riveting pension supplement. eek!)

Eek, we're sorry - we hadn't realised we were climbing the corporate ladder - honestly, it just happens without anyone noticing - it's so evil!! The money grabbers who copied our original idea (we were the world's first online profile community) kinda formed an industry that threw all sorts of rules at us and we started following them for some strange, unknown, reason. Yep, we became a bunch of nob-jockeys and we didn't even realise.

Anyway - no adverts means no rules. No rules means we can start to party!

Give us a while to sort our heads out and this place will start rockin' like an alzheimers on crack.

Anyway, if you care to join us, we're all gonna shout "tits" at 2pm this Friday afternoon, wherever we are and as loud as we can, to announce our long awaited freedom.

Without ads we won't have as much spare cash to spend on staff etc, so you guys are gonna have to help us out - if we all chip together we can make this site so cool. It's gonna rock!

Big Hug

xx

Wonder what made them choose Ketchup?

Either way, I'd definitely be up for a similar competition here. Any chance, d'you reckon, Bill? :D
