Telltale Games - Strong Bad Contest: Make a Mii, win a game!

Strong Bad Contest: Make a Mii, win a game!
Posted by emily	May 21, 2008
Hey Wii owners, listen up! Since Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People will be coming out on WiiWare as well as PC, we thought the time was right for a little make-a-Mii contest. Just pick your favorite Homestarrunner.com character, fire up your Wii, and do your best (or worst) to make a Mii that looks like that character. You can pick from any of the main characters (HR Wiki has a nice list here). Three lucky winners will get a copy of the first SBCG4AP episode, Homestar Ruiner, when it launches on WiiWare. Woo! To enter: Send a picture of your Mii to contest@telltalegames.com. Put "Strong Bad Mii contest" in the subject line and keep your attachment under 1MB, please. In your email, include the character your Mii is of (just in case we can't tell...) and your Wii friend code so we can get you your prize if you win. One entry per person, so send in your best Mii! The contest closes Sunday, June 14 15 at 11:59 pm Pacific time and we'll post the winning Miis on the blog the following week. (Not sure how to make a Mii? Nintendo's site has the answers.)

	Comment by abcxyq	May 22, 2008, 6:39 am

	Do you have to be a United States citizen just to take part? I have interest in this, but I live across the pond.
	Comment by freqrexy	May 22, 2008, 6:40 am

	sorry for saying so much in a row so ill ask all of my questions now: how will we get a game if we win? do we just take pictures of the tv screen? how many miis can we send in?
	Comment by abcxyq	May 22, 2008, 6:52 am

	Do I have to have my Wii online to participate? Or at least to get the game?
	Comment by Hoogaboo	May 22, 2008, 8:07 am

	Damn, looks like I have to.
	Comment by Hoogaboo	May 22, 2008, 8:09 am

	I don't have a digital Camera or a scanner but I still want to enter. Is ther anywhere I can mail it to? Good luck everyone! :-)
	Comment by Toonsville	May 22, 2008, 2:21 pm

	I'M TRYING!!! I'm still working on my Strong Bad Mii. What about Sam & Max, cause I already have a Mii for all the main characters, Sam, Max, Bosco, Sybil, Stinky, Abe, Flint, Superball, Brady, and Hugh. Don't I win anything for that? (P.S. I'm currently working on the Soda Poppers).
	Comment by Vake Xeacons	May 22, 2008, 5:44 pm

	What are the qualities you are looking for?
	Comment by mathwizy	May 22, 2008, 5:48 pm

	i made a the cheat
	Comment by xavier	May 22, 2008, 6:54 pm

	Do you have to be a United States citizen just to take part? I have interest in this, but I live across the pond. Hmm... good question. You don't have to be a US citizen, but I'm not positive how gifting a WiiWare version will work for other countries (i.e. if we try to gift the game to someone who is in a country where it hasn't been released yet). Note that I also don't know right now if the release will be simultaneous in other countries, so this could be a moot issue. Anyway, if for whatever reason we can't get a winner a WiiWare copy, we can give you a PC copy instead. how will we get a game if we win? do we just take pictures of the tv screen? how many miis can we send in? We will gift it to you using your Wii friend code. Yes, just take a picture of the TV screen. One entry per person. What about Sam & Max This time it's all about Strong Bad. Hold onto those Sam & Max Miis for a later contest. :) What are the qualities you are looking for? Creativity!
	Comment by Emily	May 22, 2008, 9:06 pm

	Oops, missed one: Do I have to have my Wii online to participate? Or at least to get the game? Yeah, your Wii will have to be online to get the game.
	Comment by Emily	May 22, 2008, 9:07 pm

	shooot! i made a cool crack stuntman but he isnt on the list of main characters. plus my strong bad is... lacking. NOW IM OFF TO PERFECT MY STRONG BAD MII!
	Comment by abcxyq	May 23, 2008, 4:01 pm

	My question is can we make side character Miis?I'm making Biscuitdoughhandsman.
	Comment by Nathan	May 23, 2008, 4:13 pm

	The email address should have an Auto Respond, that way we know you got our email. Did you get the email with the wii code of 1543 2409 5304 4876?
	Comment by Ninja	May 23, 2008, 8:42 pm

	If you know someone with a capture card (like me) you can have them take a picture of your mii, you get excellent quality (it's taken directly from the Wii [so it looks like you are seeing it on the TV]) without having to worry about lighting and stuff.
	Comment by Ninja	May 23, 2008, 8:45 pm

	I made the Biscuit Dough Hands Man,Crack Stuntman and Strong Mad.
	Comment by Nathan	May 23, 2008, 9:00 pm

	If the message didn't bounce, we got it.
	Comment by tabacco	May 23, 2008, 9:49 pm

	Oh, man. This'll be rough. D= Making a Homestar Mii isn't going to be easy.
	Comment by Ryusuke	May 23, 2008, 10:56 pm

	I know I'm gonna sound impatient for asking twice, but still,Side Characters allowed or not?I spent freaking 5 hours on Biscuit Dough Hands Man,Man!
	Comment by Nathan	May 24, 2008, 9:44 am

	Do we send the pictures by hotmail?
	Comment by Someguy	May 24, 2008, 12:37 pm

	You said "one entry per person," but I still would like to know: my three brothers and I have one Wii. Can we each enter a Mii? Or is it really a "one-entry-per-Wii" kind of thing? Thanks!
	Comment by Mirablu	May 25, 2008, 5:15 pm

	No, you can all enter. That's what "one per person" means :)
	Comment by tabacco	May 26, 2008, 11:24 am

	... how do i make strong mad not have a neck?
	Comment by Ben	May 26, 2008, 12:47 pm

	... how do i make strong mad not have a neck? Comment by Ben PHOTOSHOP! actually there is a legitimate way but im not telling. Too bad my wii isnt on the internet, so ill help you all out by saying WHY NOT JUST DO COACH Z! HES FREAKING EASY!
	Comment by flipperthepriest	May 26, 2008, 9:41 pm

	See, the thing that makes this hard is the abnormalties of the HR characters.
	Comment by HoolyRocket	May 28, 2008, 2:54 pm

	Side characters are allowed. Just tell us who it's supposed to be. :)
	Comment by Emily	May 29, 2008, 8:17 am

	Is Senor Cardgage OK? Will we get it on release day?
	Comment by NickClick2	June 1, 2008, 10:46 am

	CRACK STUNTMAN for the win. I got this.
	Comment by Klemmins	June 1, 2008, 8:03 pm

	Comment by Astrobilly777	June 2, 2008, 9:06 am

	@Mirablu: I suspect there will be a limit, though --very few people have more than 10 brothers and sisters... ;-)

	Comment by deadlinejon	June 6, 2008, 5:54 am

	Hey, I have a question about this. Can we do any of the characters on that page, or do we have to stick to the main characters? Thank you, ~Evil.Genius.Sheep
	Comment by Evil.Genius.Sheep	June 6, 2008, 7:52 pm

	Wow. The winners will have to wait a long time before the contest is over and the winners are announced. That seems unfair, and a loss of customers, as everyone in the contest won't buy the game because they think they will win. Maybe if this contest ended tomorrow, it would make more sense.
	Comment by Pirates	June 9, 2008, 4:37 pm

	sweet this is like....... the best contest ever
	Comment by j dawg	June 9, 2008, 5:51 pm

	trogdooooorrrr!!!!!!!!!!
	Comment by j dawg	June 9, 2008, 5:55 pm

	I made a pretty good strong bad mii. Good luck everyone!
	Comment by ShakeandBake	June 10, 2008, 9:46 am

	So, how do we take pictures of our Mii's? To we just take a picture of our TV with our cameras or is there a way to take a screenshot on the Wii?
	Comment by Jim	June 11, 2008, 12:26 pm

	Jim, you can take it with a camera, they just have to be able to make it out. If you have a capture card, this isn't a problem and you can take a screenshot of the wii.
	Comment by Ninja	June 11, 2008, 2:18 pm

	it is impossibe! You have to get registered by THEM TOO or i can't send it! What a jip! Please Help!
	Comment by Homestarrunner702	June 12, 2008, 9:44 am

	How do you send an email to them if THEY have to register too? Derwin, how did you do it???????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	Comment by homestarrunner702	June 13, 2008, 7:56 am

	Comment by Slothyface	June 13, 2008, 8:20 am

	@ homestarrunner702: You need to send an email through your computer not your Wii. First you have to take a picture of your mii with a digital camera and the put it on your computer. Then attach it to an email (Their address is at the top of the page.)
	Comment by Grammar Police	June 13, 2008, 10:06 am

	Where do I get my Wii friend code?
	Comment by Nathan	June 14, 2008, 1:07 am

	@ Nathan: Go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WIUVhlcZSM (this shows where to find it.)
	Comment by Grammar Police	June 14, 2008, 10:36 am

	By "one entry per person" do you mean one entry per person's name, or one entry per Wii Friend Code? I've submitted a Mii already, but my sister just made a Strong Sad Mii and wants to submit it. Can she send it in without the Miis being disqualified? Thanks in advance!
	Comment by Conor	June 14, 2008, 5:10 pm

	Telltale says it's one per person not one per Wii: You said "one entry per person," but I still would like to know: my three brothers and I have one Wii. Can we each enter a Mii? Or is it really a "one-entry-per-Wii" kind of thing? Thanks! No, you can all enter. That's what "one per person" means :)
