Greetings rioters. Just dropping a note to let everyone know that I've picked out this month's prizes :)

First place is going to be a silver Gameboy Micro. These things are friggin tiny! Second is going to be a copy of The Sims 2: Holiday Edition. It's just the sims with an extra 40 holiday-related items. Still cool none-the-less. Third place winner is going to get one of the new idleriot T-Shirts for free! Now isn't that snazzy!

I'm going to add a stipulation to this month's contest though, only because last month people performed poorly (compared to normal) and I want to get those numbers back up. Someone (don't care if its only the first place winner, or the 3rd) must earn at least 300 points this month. Just so we get more involved than just one or two submissions/actions.

OH! I almost forgot! Now you earn points everytime you rate media. This applies to EVERYTHING! Videos, images, flash, links, columns, and specials. You get 2 points for videos, flash, and images; 3 points for links, and 5 points for articles and specials!

Today is the last day for anyone who hasn't, to get their information to me. After this, you're.. well.. fucked. And with that, I'd like to announce this month's prizes :)

First place winner will receive a Samsung x495 cell phone with 60 minutes of pre-paid airtime from T-mobile. Our second place winner will receive a copy of Sin City on DVD, and the last place winner will receive Crash on DVD. So let's get to submitting and earning those points.

To kickstart this month's contest I will be offering 250 points to anyone who signs up under me for a Free XBOX 360 and completes an offer. Just email me your email address once you do :) This time around it's pretty easy as there's a 99¢ offer from Rhapsody! Check out all the ways you can earn points by completing offers here!

For those that haven't heard, Macromedia released a new version of Flash. I've been tinkering with it and am completely amazed at the new features. I feel like making games just for the hell of it! What does this mean for you? Well, not much if you're not a developer. Not yet anyways, but I WILL be making use of it in the future so to avoid any potential issues, PLEASE upgrade to the new Flash 8 player. I've added a link to it right here on the site, so download away! Click here to download
