![[HALOWEEN] Five Pack!](http://www.halolz.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/haloween-fivepack.jpg)
Our second place winner is actually a team… BananaDib (right) and Dr. Falcon (left)!
You have to give them credit, with five entries they were bound to make at least one we’d like! My favorite was the RRoD pumpkin (especially because it red rings in the dark!) and Alyssa’s was The Song of Time because it brought back fond memories of playing Ocarina of Time on the N64.
For second place the happy couple will be receiving a 16″x 20″ Halolz Poster (v1.1), five Wolf stickers, an Accordion Hero T-Shirt, and a Ninja-Bot shirt of their choice! Hey that works out perfectly… one shirt for each of them!

Congrats to Paulrus, who is our third place winner!
At first I had trouble seeing it… but now I can’t unsee it! >__<
Either way, you have to give him props for recreating his earlier submission in pumpkin form! That’s dedication!
For third place Paulrus will be recieving a 16″x 20″ Halolz Poster (actually he’ll be getting the newly updated version 1.1 which is not yet online!) and five Wolf stickers! Nice job!

Well it took me a while to get them all sorted (also I was busy giving out candy to kids all evening and dressing my daughter up in a bee suit…) but here are the entries we received for the 2008 Pumpkin Carving Contest! Considering the short notice I gave everyone for this first year of doing it, I think the results were awesome! In fact, I thought they were so awesome that I’ve decided that all the entrants will be getting “Honorable Mention” status (which means a prize)! As for the first, second and third place winners… I’ll announce them in the next three posts!
But for now, here’s a listing of the creators of these fine pumpkins, from top to bottom!

Okay, I know Halloween is right around the corner… but I still wanted to do this contest just to kind of get it rolling!
So what is it all about? Halolz First Annual Haloween Pumpkin Carving Contest is, as it sounds, a jack-o-lantern carving contest! The theme? Anything video game related! Carve something awesome in a pumpkin that has something to do with video games and you can win! Entries will be judged on originality, creativity, and juiciness (not really).
How to enter:
Step 1: Make a rad video game themed jack-o-lantern
Step 2: Carve a small visible “H” somewhere on the pumpkin, or make a sign that says “Halolz.com” to show in the photo (this is to avoid cheating)
Step 3: Take a digital photo (lights on or off or both) and send it to haloween@halolz.com
Step 4: All elegible entries must be recieved by 5pm EST on Oct 31st
Prizes:
First Place
• (1) Ninja-Bot T-Shirt of Your Choice
• (1) Accordion Hero T-Shirt
• (1) This Is My Axe T-Shirt
• (1) BLOW ME T-Shirt
• (1) Halolz 16″x 20″ Poster
• (5) Wolf Vinyl Stickers
Second Place
• (1) Ninja-Bot T-Shirt of Your Choice
• (1) Accordion Hero T-Shirt

• (5) Wolf Vinyl Stickers
Third Place
• (1) Halolz 16″x20″ Poster
• (5) Wolf Vinyl Stickers
Honorable Mentions
• (1) Wolf Vinyl Sticker
I’ll start posting entries as they start coming in… and the official winners will be determined on Halloween night. If you have any questions just post them in the comments! Good luck!
[Update!] I’ve already gotten quite a few entries… and I don’t really want to single any out, so I’m going to post entries starting on Halloween day!

Hey! I’ll be hanging out at another anime convention this weekend… which ironically is named Another Anime Convention! It’s in Nashua, New Hampshire… so if you’re nearby this is a fun convention worth checking out! Last year I made it to the final round of the Smash Bros Melee tournament with Mr. Game & Watch, which was like, the greatest Smash Bros moment of my life… so hopefully this year I’ll have time to play again!
Also congrats to Loirnus who won my Halo 3 LE Gamerpics/Theme auction! To everyone else… YOU SHOULD HAVE TRIED HARDER
Oh and with two weeks until Halloween I’m working up a little contest for the site. All I will say for now is, start thinking up some good video game related pumpkin carving ideas!
