The Winners!
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, batteries and sausage dogs…I am delighted to announce the winners of the very first Bad Voltage competition. Be sure to listen to http://www.badvoltage.org/2014/02/27/1x10/ for all the details about how we picked the winners and what we thought of the contest.
On behalf of all the presenters, I want to say a huge thank-you to everyone who participated in the contest. It really demonstrates how fun-loving our little slice o’life over here is becoming. ![]()
The Winner - @andris
We couldn’t believe the lenghs @andris went to snap this beauty, going so far as to almost burn his house down:
@andris wins four O’Reilly books of his choice. Why one less book? Well, read on…
The Runner Up(s) - @cedeon and @girts
The Bad Voltage team were in a solid draw when it came to the runner up, so we are picking two.
Firstly, there is this from @cedeon, which is very “on message” with the vibe of naughty electronics:
…and then this just gave us a bad case of the LOLs, from @girts:
Both @cedeon and @girts win two O’Reilly books each, nabbing one from @andris, but we assume @andris is cool about this. If not, we will nip to a local Borders and walk out with it under our jackets.
Honorable Mention
@landon, oh, @landon, we loved all the pics you sent in…you went above and beyond, my friend! We wanted to give you an honorable mention for the effort, even though you were pipped at the post by the gents above.
You All Rock
Thanks to everyone who submitted pictures…it was a tough call, but thanks for making it so fun! Many thanks also to our wonderful friends at O’Reilly for providing the prizes!
We will be putting together a cool montage of all the pics, and you know I love a good montage:
