A couple people have mentioned that they can't log in to the forum. If you're having similar problems please mail me with the details of the problem so we can…

A 20% swing is quite a bit at this stage in the competition. I'm certainly happy with the result. Damn, this next match up is a tough one for me.…

And from a brand new submitter, Lauren.

Now that Hesher is a reality, I thought we could run the same poll from a few weeks back. We've now heard Natalie and Gordon-Levitt talk about the film. We've…

Poor Silversurfer is carrying out the fanart needs all by his lonesome. Might be nice to have some other contributors help out from time to time. *nudge nudge* 1280x1024

I thought it would be a closely matched first contest of the third round and this time I was on the money. Just 20 votes separated the two. Really happy…

Okay, I think its definitely time for a post MakingOf launch poll. I know the site still has a long way to go in terms of development, but I’ve tried to cater for those who want a bit more progress before they have their say.

Personally, as a fan of Nat, as a fan of film, as someone who still has modest film making ambitions…this is like the perfect storm…although, wait, the perfect storm was bad wasn’t it? So this is more like the perfect orgasm!

So I forgot to do this yesterday. Probably because it mostly feels like an exercise in futility. Yup, yet another crappy Amazon week I’m afraid. I’m not even going to include a recommendation this week. Instead I want to mention the new comic strip competition again.

As mentioned last week, the np.comic is coming back – I wrote the script today. For every $5 donation, your name goes into the hat once, and every month we’ll do a draw. The winner will get to guide the second comic that we do every month. You can simply suggest an idea, insert yourself or loved ones into it, or even write the whole damn thing and upstage me.

Currently we’ve only got one name in that hat (twice – thanks Bryan!). So right now, a mere $10 donation would result in a 50% shot of doing your own np.comic. And a 100% shot at winning my heart.
