Thanks to everyone who participated and thanks to Chris F. for all the great work on getting these guys animated. Look for these animations in Legions soon. I'll let you know when they are available.

You won't want to forget that the Lore: Aftermath decal contest is still well underway. If you've got an idea, and have a little bit of artistic talent, make sure you post it in the 'Lore Decal Contest' thread. This contest will run until Monday, October 20th when we'll pick a final winner.
The rules are simple. Create a 256x256 .png with a transparent background. Remember that the image will be duplicated across the front of the MAV. For more information check out the original post. Don't forget to head to the forums to check out some of the cool submissions so far.
I took the liberty of trying to paste dcdomain's idea of a bear duct taped to the front of a MAV. Turned out so-so.

This Wednesday, October 1st, is the deadline for the Legions Taunt Contest. If you've got something make sure you leave a video response to Crash's taunt. I'm sure there are a lot of ideas out there, so quit being self conscious and post videos!
Here's a submissions from br16guy.
A final date has been set for the Legions Taunt Contest. That date is October 1st. We've had a couple submissions so far, and there's some good stuff. For you, I present the Captain!
I also present, the super thrust!
If you think you've got something better head to the youtube page of Crash7800's version and post your video as a response. Head to the forums for full details and discussion.
And the winner is HLMornaVal with his IA branded teapot idea. There were many good ideas, so or the rest of the ideas head on over to the thread. Swag Contest forum thread.
It's a funny idea and here's my mock-up (it took like 5 minutes).
Congrats to HLMornaVal and expect some swag in the mail soon!
Since we're working on taunts for Legions, artist Chris Flanagan thought it might be fun for you guys to compete to get new taunts in the game. Here's an example of Crash7800 acting out his favorite taunt with the model mimicking his action. Well done Chris!
Here's the rundown of how to participate:
1. Get some footage of your favorite taunt, something that you'd like to see appear in the game.
2. Head to Crash's video on YouTube. Here's a link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrWk_BHWUMM
3. Leave a video response to Crash's video. Something you've already uploaded or record something on the fly. Here's the section to leave a video response: http://www.youtube.com/video_response_upload?v=qrWk_BHWUMM
4. The best video that we get will potentially get their taunt in LEGIONS!
5. Remember to keep the videos clean.
We have a winner for the Attack the Soundtrack Contest and that winner is Albino Ghost Monkey with the song "Visiting"
After many entries and bleeding ears. Albino Ghost Monkey had the winning song that sounded like it would fit into a videogame.
Head on over to http://www.myspace.com/albinoghostmonkey and check out the winning track "Visiting". It's definitely 8bit inspired and definitely 8bit awesome.
Congratulations Albino Ghost Monkey and we'll be listening to your song very very soon.
