What I'm thinking is one of those mini-slushee machines, like the home ones that make margauritas. All zoomed up in Slusho! colors and design.
And a years' surply of the powder mix sent directly to your door.

I've come to this idea from this quote:
a Slusho! machine for your store today! We will send representatives and scientists who will train you on how to operate our machine, and preserve the flavor of our special ingredient, Seabed's Nectar!! And what is more, we will have the special flavor tasties delivered bi-weekly, right to your storefront!!!

Not a bad idea, and don't you think this suggests that as well?

The product will compliment the Make Your Own Slusho! kit already on market shelves.

For the record, I'm not placing my chips in any pot as to what the Contest is just yet. At this time, I'm just going to assume that it is something along the lines of seeing who can have the most people electronically sign a list in OUR individual favor... such as, Euchre gets 210 people go to a particular website, they as "who referred you?", and they have to put "Euchre" or whatever... who ever gets the most people wins sort of thing.

I know it sounds confusing, but I guess that's the entire idea of a viral campaign, isn't it?

For the record: I have no clue as to what they will have us compete in... nevertheless, I wonder if, as some have already said, the winner will, on December 9th, recieve the new trailer, or an email containing the title, or something of that nature. A little reward for playing the ARG so well.

Believe me, i'm grinning the entire time i'm writing this. What if the contest is going to be a drinking contest. Can't drink just Six. I actually got involved in a promotional contest in OC, Maryland, you get a certain amount of time to consume as many Icee's as possible. Winner got a prize i'm not willing to mention, but it was a riot. Try it for yourselves, gather a few friends and 5 or 6 medium slushee's and go to town. The looks on peoples faces as the brain freeze kicks in is absolutely priceless!!!

Hmm...I actually have an electric ice shaving machine meant for making snowcones, though it actually makes Slusho-type beverages...more like a Slush Puppy than a Slurpee. I think I'm going to print out Slusho labels to put on it and buy a bunch of flavors similar to the ones on the site and throw a 1-18-08 afterparty.

I think it could be a "You cant drink just six" drinking game contest. maybe something youtube based like send in videos of yourself drinking as many slushos as possible. the person who drinks the most slushos in their video... gets to be an extra who says the line "is that a minotaur?!" before getting crushed. Cool

I'm thinking this is going to be more of a "create a slusho flavor" type of a contest than any sort of real world contest. The prize being, your flavor and your name posted somewhere on the site. Exciting? No, but I think something simpler is more likely.

Unfortunatly for the drinking contest Slusho actually has to be a real product... I mean unless we leave it the way it is and then and have imaginary Slusho, because if that's the case.. i'll win. I can drink gallons, nay, tankers worth of imaginary liquid.

I agree the contest has to be strictly Slusho! related to keep in character. Fan Art, composition,poem, finding a clue or solving a riddle all to do with the Slusho! world.

The Slusho makes me deleriously insane. Maybe its a competition to see who goes insane first from examining the site for clues? Laughing *rocks back and forth*

I have a feeling that whatever this "contest" is each one of us is winning it, be it invitations to the premier or actually Slusho drink or anything, we are lions when it comes to clues here and we rip the clues apart and figure it out, and we all figure it out together so we're all winning. I know it. There's my inspirational thought for the day.
