Karaoke Contest To Be Held On de_vegas

by Jason Kurpel

In a shocking announcement yesterday, the owners of the LuckDuck Casino in de_vegas stated that there will be a Christmas Counter-Karaoke Contest in which english- speaking CT's will be allowed to vie for top cash prizes and free drinks. The contest, to be held on December 15th will draw many talented SAS and Navy SEAL counter-terrorists to the stage, away from the whole "senseless murder" aspect of the map and perhaps assist them in launching possible singing careers as solo artists.

One excited Counter-Terrorist exclaimed, "I can finally win back the money I lost playing those goddamned slot machines!" The top prize in the contest is rumoured to be "$5000 and a fully loaded M249 PARA complete with kevlar vest and helmet". The entrance fee is either $700, or your default weapon.

Not all fun and games will be had at the contest however. One melancholy terrorist, Arctic Joe, will be looking on as he wallows in his own remorse for only speaking Russian, therefore disabling him from entering the contest and singing such hometown classics as "Hammer and Sickle Forever" and "AK-47, I Salute Thee".

So far, there have been an overwhelming number of applicants but, according to the owner of the LuckDuck Casino, it will be easy to choose the winners, due to the fact that "most of the budding Sinatra CT's in the spotlight will be newbies".


ArcticCom Finds Fro, Self

After hours and hours of searching through user-sumbitted fros, Good 'ol ArcticCom ended his suffering and picked three of the finest fros ever made for a man. Who won the goods? Will ArcticCom end his womanly crying once and for all? Check out the results below.

First place received a date with CS-Nation staffer vapor and an imaginary vacation to the Caribbean. Second place won the McLaren F1 (test driven by RzE), and third received a FREE downloadable copy of Counter-Strike for Half-Life. What else could there be? How about another bitchin' comic by CSNE comic-maker Balthus Dire?



FIRST PLACE

Zaphod Beeblebrox (of mapping fame) designed this one, capturing ArcticCom at his high school reunion a few years back. The essence of the fro is absolutely fantastic, and ArcticCom chose this one as his favorite, saying it "brought back memories of the good 'ol days."

Zaphod wins the sexy date with CS-Nation staffer vapor and a vacation to the Carribean (UPDATE: the flight was cancelled due to the recent Delta airlines pilot strike, so Zaphod will only be able to enjoy his dinner of NewsBits and bread with vapor. Details will come later.

SECOND PLACE

ArcticCom, ladies' man extrodinaire, liked this fro because it captured his "sexual intellectual" side. Deemed has "hip" and "jiggy wit' it," Arctic says this fro will be his choice should he spend a night out on the town.

[GB]bowzer, the creator, said he is anticipating his new McLaren F1. Plans are in progress to deliver him the remains of the vehicle after RzE (and his fat ass) test-drove it. Repair costs are estimated to be in the hundreds of thousands.

THIRD PLACE

Last, but not least, is the Homer Simpson fro. While it may be a bit skanky in comparison to the others, ArcticCom said it rendered him both aerodynamically and visually appealing.

[SPaZM]Hobbes, the thrid place winner, said he "tried downloading" his prize of Counter-Strike of Half-Life, but AOL kept disconnecting him from the download. Better luck next time. :D

HONORABLE MENTION

Some of these entries were just too funny to pass up, so here's a few of our favorites:

Thanks to everyone that submitted a fro for ArcticCom!


No llamas, please.
