Lee. Posted February 4, 2005 Share Posted February 4, 2005 This is it. My 2000th post. And as you've all been reading, along with my 2000th post is the contest I've so stupidly called...The Lamicus Super Fun Time Happy Challenge, or, the SFTHC.The Setup:The year is 1979. The World Hockey Association, or WHA, is in severe financial straits and is eyeing a merger with the NHL. There are eight teams remaining, only four can jump to the NHL. As a result, four teams- the Winnipeg Jets, Edmonton Oilers, Quebec Nordiques, and Hartford Whalers, fold. The remaining four teams merge with the NHL. These teams are:Birmingham Bulls (Navy/Red/White)Indianapolis Racers (Royal/red/white)Phoenix Roadrunners (Royal/yellow/white)Cincinnati Stingers (black/yellow)CHALLENGE PART ONE:Design new uniform sets for these four teams' entry into the NHL. The sets should be consistent with mid to late 70's hockey uniform design and style. You do not have to use the original color sets of the teams, but at least one color from their original scheme should carry over.CHALLENGE PART TWO:It is the year 2005. Of the four teams, only one remains in its original market, the other three having relocated. Design a uniform set for the team ramaining in its original market, as well as the three relocated teams. You may choose those teams' new locations, as well as nicknames and color sets. Free reign for all four teams is given.RULES & REGULATIONSFOR THE SAKE OF CLARIFICATION, PLEASE NOTE: ALL TEAMS MUST BE DONE, IN BOTH PARTS OF THE CHALLENGE. Incomplete entries will not be counted!All entries must beEMAILED to me at lamicus (at) gmail (dot) com, one entry per participant. Entries will be accepted until 6 PM CDT, MARCH 12, 2005. All entries, at the time of voting, will be anonymous. Any participant who posts his/her entries on the board prior to the unveiling at voting time will be disqualified. This contest is open to all members of the CCSLC community, with the exception of any currently banned or otherwise censured members. Do not taunt Super Fun Time Happy Challenge.Good luck to all, and good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pollux Posted February 4, 2005 Share Posted February 4, 2005 So basically we have to design entries for all teams, twice? So eight sets of two jerseys? Or do we pick only one team and do both parts of the challenge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
