Competition Time!​

It's been a while since we last held a compy so we here thought we'll do a couple this month!

The prize? Well you know we have given away some great stuff here but rather than the usual latest flashcart I felt we'll do something different this time so what we have as a main prize is a neat pair of very highly rated Sennheiser HD 518 headphones.

Spoiler: Headphone features and specifications

The HD 518 open, circumaural headphones prove that quality and affordability can go hand in hand. They are fitted with Sennheiser's innovative E.A.R. technology to ensure accurate channeling of audio signals into your ears while their sophisticated Duofol diaphragms reduce unwanted resonances to an absolute minimum. And to amplify your listening pleasure even further, their ear pads and headband cushion provide outstanding wearing comfort, even for long listening sessions.

Features
High-end open circumaural headphones with E.A.R. technology for excellent sound reproduction with deep rich bass
Sennheiser's innovative "Eargonomic Acoustic Refinement" (E.A.R.) design channels audio signals directly into your ears
State-of-the-art, advanced Duofol diaphragms for transparency and minimal distortion

I need those headphones so bad that I'm actually considering this.

But... I don't have actual headphones to wear like Tempy. D:

The point of the competition is that you make the headphones for your entry yourself.

Possible extra points for huge bras modified to look like headphones.

Shit, get a pair of real boobs on you head...that may win it.

 

[TLOZ]

Is it possible to take a plain pic of myself and do all the other stuff in a CGI-program of my choice? I'm a wanna-be 3D-artist and would love to it in 3D, otherwise I'll have to pass on this one.
Sounds like a lot of fun though...

I'm not sure, personally I feel that it would take away the fun.

I'll leave it for the members to decide on that....though to be honest it would be cheating, so I'm saying no unless other members think its ok.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

;O;



I beg you don't cry.

 

[GameWinner]

I don't think I'll enter since I'm not all that creative.
If I did win I probably would've sold the headphones anyway.

 

[Sterling]

I just need to find the tape, and I'll be good to go.

HOW THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO MAKE HEADPHONES?
NOT EVERYONE IS A CHINA-MANUFACTURER, COSTY!

 

[TheRedfox]

Hmm, i got a idea

[notmeanymore]

As soon as I get home, I will instant-win this competition. As soon as I read that masks were okay, the winner was decided.
However, I won't be home until next Saturday...good thing this competition runs long.

Note to self: do not even risk warnings on this site, the competitions and trading section are far too valuable.

For your sake, I'm going to assume that you're trolling, but in case you're not, or there's someone who is genuinely confused by the OP, you're supposed to make the photo yourself, not make the headphones.

 

[Deleted_11405]

lol i had the same thing yesterday thinking of a new one
