❁ Rainbow Wheel - Easter 2009 [R1 Results in! R2 Soon...]

[Kouenki]

There way too many variations of colors for them all to share the same name. Like, if someone wanted their car painted cobalt blue and someone painted it baby blue, I bet they'd be pretty mad about it.

Hello everyone.

Sorry, but the R1 results are taking a little longer. Life is playing up and I haven't worked ImageReady in ages, so I actually forgot how to exactly animate this. <_<

I'll do my best to have it up tomorrow! ^_^;

I need to generate a random number! Using this post to do so.

Btw, Zap and Star are both right, in a sense, according to Wikipedia. (According to the rules of the internet, this means it must be tr00.)

Star's Royal Blue is the traditonal color.
Zap's Royal Blue is the web color. -_-;

So it's really a matter of perspective.

When I decided my favorite color was royal blue, I then based myself on the color I saw in my environment, not on the web >.>;;

Well, since it's a subjective matter, it's hard to take a standpoint in this one. ^_^

Anyways...


ROUND 1 RESULTS ARE IN!

They can be viewed in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qsIOUT_78rA , in which I struggle to pronounce member names, keep up with the animation's pace and make a general fool out of myself. XD

Enjoy it and look out for round two!  

[Kouenki]

That was amusing. XD I can almost identify the dieing pokemon in the background. Before the Price is Right music starts. XD  

[GeorgeStow]

Man, you have such a freaky accent. It doesn't sound the least bit Euro to me. And you said George like a Yank. mrgreen  

[Fairy Alchemist 96]

You sound like you have a sore throat... sweatdrop  

[PrismScepter]

I don't notice anything odd with his voice.

Tak.....are you secretly training to by a game show host? ninja

XD Mr. Question Mark and I are buddies.  

[Sir Nunatak]

Well, I assume you all liked my horrible attempt at being a game show host, then. P= Come on, I had to at least try and make it sound somewhat excited! XD

I seriously believe there's too many people who don't put enough spirit into it when they're narrating into their microphone. Look alive, internets!

Anyways, I might do something like this again for the R2 results, if it's fun enough for you guys. Animating Round 2 is going to be a pain, though...

But before we get into that...


HERE IS ROUND 2!




I know it's taken me a while to get this up and running, so let's cut to the chase and explain the new round!

Does that wheel look intimidating? I think it does! *shivers* It's the kind of wheel that gives Bowser bad dreams. I shall attempt to explain the rules of round 2 to you in an easy, clear fasion, though:

• Everybody sends me one number of their choosing between 1 and 7 (no more eights!) in a PM. Deadline is Saturday. No PM means I'll generate a random number for you.
  
  
  
• Now here's the trick: every member rotates both the wheels with their rotation numbers.
  
  
  
• The number you give me will rotate your OWN wheel that many spaces in CLOCKWISE DIRECTION.
  
  
  
• Your number also influences the other wheel, but there's a catch. The opposing wheel will be rotated in COUNTER-CLOCKWISE DIRECTION by your number of choosing, divided by two and rounded down if needed.
  
  (So if you rotate your own wheel 5 spaces, the opposing wheel will rotate 5/2 = 2,5 -> 2 spaces counter-clockwise)
  
  
  
• The winners are declared when both wheels come at a standstill and the silver arrows indicate our lucky winners. The winner from Wheel 1 will of course be our Grand Prize winner, with the winner of Wheel 2 winning our fabulous consolation price.
  

Think you have the anticipation abilities, the luck and the sheer guts to claim victory? Let's play Rainbow Wheel!


*Waits for the PMs to fly in*

*actually just watched the video. yes, I'm late ninja *


"Sore throat"? I guess that's just because of the mic xd

And George, I pronounce your name the same way he did. But I'm Canadian ninja Ah!! blaugh

Anyway, cool video mrgreen ... What do you say, "horrible" attempt?! I couldn't do anything that great. First, freaking English pronounciation problems (aah, it's probably not that bad, but shyness doesn't help.. sweatdrop ), secondly, I don't like talking on the phone, so imagine talking to a microphone stare rolleyes Anyway lol  

[PrismScepter]

George....thats the only way I've ever heard your name pronouced. XD

....Of course Florida is populated by Canadians, New Yorkers, Hispanics, old people and tourists. Seriously, a New York accent is more common then a Southern drawl around hear and we neighbor The South from farther south. ._. Florida is an odd place.
