Have it Your Way!

[Swordfish_II]

Run [adult swim] for a night sweepstakes. (http://www.adultswim.com/promos/200501_bk/index.html)

[TylerL]

I'd like my Adult Swim with onion rings instead of fries.

Value meal with rings or fries
It still costs the same great price
You don't have to ask us twice
To Have It Your Way™

If I win, Adult Swim will be nothing but Super Milk Chan.

[Discloner]

Entered. I fear what will happen if someone from the AS.com boards wins, which is probably what will happen. :sad:

EDIT: Actually...now I fear what will happen if Tyler wins.

[Tienshin]

Entered!

If I win, I plan to run a marathon of Pilot Candidate with visual vocab cards of me and friends getting completely smashed off Boones Farm Strawberry wine and Natty light.

Oh and streaming video will be available online of the aptly named puke bucket.

[livingfruitvirus]

Entered. Oh you guys would be so in for it if I won. (cracks knuckles)

[Nin-Nin69]

You guys have nothing on my plans for showing the Groovarians all night. :D

[SirLemming]

If I won, it would probably be somewhat akin to an anticlimactic sappy Hollywood movie ending where nothing changes because there's value in what they're doing right now. Except there'd be a little more Space Ghost and Case Closed.

[Artimus Gigan]

Milk-Chan the entire night with cards bashing CC and the fans who love it so.

victory shall be mine



I wills it

[Anime Freak]

If I won,it'd be nothing but Lupin and FMA all night. :anime:

[Zach Logan]

Entered.
If I win I'd probably do everything I think Adult Swim should have done from the start. I'd put Action on Mondays and Comedy on Sundays. I would bring back the old shows that havn't been seen in a while (Space Ghost) and put some shows they still have but didn't wanna put on (Rejected). I'd put some GOOD anime on the lineup...sans Bebop which had been played millions of times...even though it is good.

[Chad Bonin]

Prepare for action-packed Saturday, orignal comedy Sunday, and a mix of everything weekdays if I win.

Ya know, a logical schedule.

[Don_East]

Can't enter, 3 years too young. But I just hope who wins is someone that likes Case Closed & SG2CC.

[Majin_Megabyte]

I also entered the contest as well. If I win my night would be an FLCL night!

[Dogbert]

I entered, but I have no clue what I'll put on the air if I win. It would no doubt be something strange though. Not as strange as Super Milk Chan...

[Artimus Gigan]

I have a feeling that this will be like MCHeshPants all over again...

[bluedeucedodge]

OOOHHHHH boy, Yall will hate me forever if I win. A Sealab marathon will the the cost of me winning. :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: Nah, I'd mix it up, with **** load of Lupin III. Nothing to far out of the ordinary.

[Beat]

Entered. With a schedule that promises to be 100% Tom Goes to the Mayor and Sealab 2021 free.

[IWDP Lim]

Reading the rules, I don't think you can have anime on it. (I'd paste that part of the rules here, but Firefox won't let me). So my idea if I win might still be a reality at least.

Six hours of Captain Linger "Trouble if it's Fair".

You think that thousand bucks would be enough to get "COME ON YOU OLD LADY!" and "GO YAFFA!" alternating all night for the commerical breaks?

[RahXephon]

Entered. I fear what will happen if someone from the AS.com boards wins, which is probably what will happen. :sad:Because OH NOES!!!11 everybody on the ASMBs is stupid? Fact of the matter is, I probably wouldn't have even noticed this contest had I not inadvertantly stumbled onto this thread... and I post there way more than could be considered healthy.

edit:

Just checked the rules, and...

The Winner must select from Cartoon Network's Adult Swim original animated series programming for the Block. Cartoon Network cannot guarantee the exact dates or times on which the Block may appear on Cartoon Network. Cartoon Network reserves the right to alter or edit the Block in whole or in part in its sole discretion.Interesting... especially the part where it says, "You can have it your way, unless we decide not to let you."

[Dogbert]

Reading the rules...Rules! Well that takes all the fun out of it.

[Beat]

*Reads the rules*

Well, that destroyed all interest I had in this contest.

[SirLemming]

Holy crap. I just realized that Hyper Sensei could finally get his wish.

(Unless he doesn't satisfy the requirements, I guess.)

[Nik Jam]

Now I remember why I wanted to turn 18. AS Promotions.

Well they did this one month too early.

[Sketch]

Holy crap. I just realized that Hyper Sensei could finally get his wish.

(Unless he doesn't satisfy the requirements, I guess.)
Dang it all I wanted some anime... Case Closed, FMA, and Kikaider if I could air it

But since that's turned to crap I hope I can at least pick Venture Bros.

11:00 - Venture Bros.
11:30 - Harvey Birdman x 2
12:00 - Aqua Teen Hunger Force x 2
12:30 - The Brak Show x 2
01:00 - Space Ghost C2C x 2
01:30 - Home Movies or a second Venture Bros.

No Futurama, no Family Guy, no Milk Chan and NO SEALAB 2021

Actualy screw all that...

6 episodes of Venture Bros.!!!

Or a Space Ghost C2C or Harvey Birdman marathon.

Or the real curve ball a Home Movies marathon.

I can't just pick one episode for any given show it's too hard and they wouldn't let me pick the exact episode anyway (most likely).

Why no anime though? Let the kiddies have their Inuyasha marathon. There are worse things that could happen.

I doubt you could air the old itersiduals either...

"Have it your way" unless you want anime

[The Landstander]

This contest ends the day I turn 18.

IT IS AN OMEN

[PaQ]

Very interesting contest even if they limit what the winner has the ability of scheduling.. I entered also, sounds like fun for the winner.

[Mr. Pedro]

Entered.

The least I can do is run VB all night because I love you all so much.

[Chad Bonin]

[Tienshin]

Ugh....don't turn this into some stupid fantasy schedule thread. :mad:

[Sketch]

Sheesh... who spit in your tofu? It's about a content to schedule Adult Swim. What did you think people would do in the thread?

I'd love for it to be for a week instead of just a day but since it's just a day and just originals they'll probably air it on a Sunday. So I'd just program it with my favorite originals.

[TylerL]

Ok then.
Why not Pilot Day.

[Sketch]

That's cool but the only pilot I really liked was Venture Bros. anyway.

[Nin-Nin69]

Pilot Day could have Welcome to Eltingville. :)

[Lord Dalek]

Finally, Hyper Luigi has a purpose.

EDIT- Now that I have read this thread cover to cover, I realize he knows that too.

[Sketch]

I thought my purpose was to annoy the crap out of you and tell Matt to appreicate Super Mario Bros. 1.

[Lord Dalek]

I thought my purpose was to annoy the crap out of you and tell Matt to appreicate Super Mario Bros. 1.LOL's SMB1!

[lheiskell]

I'd fill it with old Cartoon Planet pieces. I luvs me some singing Brak.
sniff...too bad I'm not eligible...sniff....sniff

[Sketch]

And thus why you guys and gals at FUNimation need to get that anime channel going. Then you could program it with shows that are worth watching.

But I'd say Cartoon Planet wouldn't be an option. Space Ghost C2C would be though and so would the Brak Show. So that's a start.

[Sketch]

Really now? I had no idea that was the case. Well that's something at least.

[Karl Olson]

Entered. Oh you guys would be so in for it if I won. (cracks knuckles)

I don't think rules would let you have your way. :D

Meanwhile, I entered. I'm not sure whether originals includes aquisitions or what (original programming could just mean shows that air on Adult Swim. It's a legally ambigous phrase,) but I suppose I could just do an evening of Rejected (hey they own the rights, they've got to air it sometime, why not 12 times in a row?)

Edit: I think you're eligible Lance, unless you're also directly employed by CN in addition to Funimation.

[livingfruitvirus]

Interesting... especially the part where it says, "You can have it your way, unless we decide not to let you."
It's kinda like that contest where some kid were allowed to run CN all day. Then it became 3 hours. On a Saturday afternoon. Go go CN Legal.

[Chad Bonin]

Maybe Lance isn't, due to the " except employees and their immediate families (defined as parents, spouses, siblings and children) and household members of The Cartoon Network LP, LLLP ("Cartoon Network" or "Sponsor") and Burger King Corporation ("Burger King"), Time Warner Inc., and each of their respective parents, subsidiaries, divisions, trustees, franchisees, participating vendors, distributors, cable affiliates, advertising and promotion agencies and affiliated entities (collectively, including Sponsor, the "Sweepstakes Entities")."

I'm not sure, but maybe Lance would be an "affiliated entity".

... man, now I need a William C. Maune signal to get someone legal to interpret this.

[Juu-kuchi]

Eh I'll just rerun that same Screwball Squirrel cartoon and top it all off with that annoying penguin jail special.

I'm not of ideas at 1:30 in the morning.

[CryptiniteDemon]

It's a stupid contest if we can only use William's street junk. The only thing I like of theirs is Harvey Birdman and Venture bros. The rest is crap.

[lheiskell]

Maybe Lance isn't, due to the " except employees and their immediate families (defined as parents, spouses, siblings and children) and household members of The Cartoon Network LP, LLLP ("Cartoon Network" or "Sponsor") and Burger King Corporation ("Burger King"), Time Warner Inc., and each of their respective parents, subsidiaries, divisions, trustees, franchisees, participating vendors, distributors, cable affiliates, advertising and promotion agencies and affiliated entities (collectively, including Sponsor, the "Sweepstakes Entities")."

I'm not sure, but maybe Lance would be an "affiliated entity".

... man, now I need a William C. Maune signal to get someone legal to interpret this. Nope. I am referring to the fact that my uncle developed the "flame broiled" technology at Burger King. It's fun going to his house during the holidays. He has a sign on his front door that says "Home of the Whopper"

Or that's what the voices in my head tell me.

[Chad Bonin]

For some reason, I have the major urge to dodge Burger King's legalities and make a pair of boxers with "Home of the Whopper" scrawled on them.

So, Lance, if he developed flame-broil technology, did the Heiskell Flame-Broil Dynasty take a hit when they switched to "fire grilled" promotions?

[Karl Olson]

Nope. I am referring to the fact that my uncle developed the "flame broiled" technology at Burger King. It's fun going to his house during the holidays. He has a sign on his front door that says "Home of the Whopper"

Or that's what the voices in my head tell me.

Just for that, you deserve a trophy. Barring that, I'll just ask you for a hamburger at the next con I catch you at (or maybe bring you one... depends on how good the dealers room is. :)) By then you'll have forgotten, and it'll be even funnier... for me.

Anyway, if Funi's an affiliated entity, than I'm some what worried about by my eligibility then (Sealab commentary => 70/30 Productions => Affiliated Entity.)

Eh, not like I'll win anyway :anime:

[NickWhiz1]

Six hours of Perfect Hair Forever/Anime Talk Show.

Let the torture begin.

[Artimus Gigan]

Six hours of Perfect Hair Forever/Anime Talk Show.

Let the torture begin.That would be awsome

too bad I already won

[Viceroy]

Six hours of Perfect Hair Forever/Anime Talk Show.

Let the torture begin.
I see your PHF/ATS and raise you a Ripping Friends marathon.

[Karl Olson]

I see your PHF/ATS and raise you a Ripping Friends marathon.

well played. who would have thought to bring out a show so bad, people subconciously repressed it?

[Jimmy Kustes]

I'd slap together an 11-minute cartoon script and send it to some kid that knows flash. Then I would repeat it all night.

[lostrune]

I'd slap together an 11-minute cartoon script and send it to some kid that knows flash. Then I would repeat it all night.
That's not among the choices of AS original programming... Well, it is an original, but it's not in their programming beforehand, unless you can get them to buy it. :D

[Beat]

I'd just give everyone a Venture Brothers marathon. You know, something that doesn't suck.

[herbkir]

Since I'd be limited to the AS originals only, here's how I'd do it if I won:

11-11:30 ATHF then Tom
11:30-12 Venture Bros.
12-12:30 Birdman then Tom
12:30-1 Venture Bros.
1-1:30 Birdman then ATHF
1:30-2 Space Ghost then Sealab

Tom is funny stuff. ATHF, Venture and Birdman have their funny episodes. So I'd dominate the block with those 4 shows. That last half hour would be a sop to appease the SG and Sealab fans, but they'd be at the butt end of the block, where crap belongs.

The real fun, though, would be if they let me write the bumpers for my programmed night. Maybe something like:

"To my buddy who laughed at my [Adult Swim] habit: Watch the bird, man."

"My dad warned me to stop watching those stupid cartoons or I'd come to a bad end. Well, he was right. I've become an [Adult Swim] programmer."

I hope the winner gets to write the bumps as well as select the shows. (^_*)

[pabcool]

while I'm not 18, if I had entered and won I would have done

This contest ends the day I turn 18.

IT IS AN OMEN
well, I belive that you are, by law, the age of majority the day BEFORE your 18th birthday, because the law does not count fractions of days. (of course I could have my facts mixed up....)

[Conan-san]

If I was eligble to win and I did so, you'd all be in for the night that came from Hell.

6 hour marathon of Demented Cartoon Movie, bummpers of Super Milk Chan doing...whatereva the hell she does and nothing but screching internet noise for the cards which would flash nothing but eplispy inducing flashes!

Teach all ya bums for not serving to the uk!

That, or some monkey dust, depends....

[The Landstander]

We all know this is going to end in a number of ways.

A) Mainstream AS fan wins. Family Guy and Futurama, back-to-back-to-back.
B) Internet fan wins; uses opportunity to make Internet mad. Night of Ripping Friends and Super Milk Chan.
C) Inuyasha, Inuyasha, Inuyasha...

[Conan-san]

B) Internet fan wins; uses opportunity to make Internet mad. Night of Ripping Friends and Super Milk Chan.
C) Inuyasha, Inuyasha, Inuyasha... D) I win, YOU ALL DIE! *INSANE LAUGH*

[Freeze Sabre]

Whoever wins: you better ****ing play some oldschool Space Ghost, or I'll come to your house with a 12-pound axe. I wanna see the 1994-99 eps again.

[RedTail]

If I win, I'm setting up a thread and you guys can help me come up w/ something presentable. I already know what shows I'd air, but have no clue what episodes I'd like to show.

[ClockStomper]

You poor souls are in for a Reign marathon. Bwahahahaha!

Nah, I'd just try to figure out a way to get "To be or Nazi be" on the air, even if I had to kick Pioneer/whatever"kewl"nametheyuse in the balls.

[Swordfish_II]

You poor souls are in for a Reign marathon. Bwahahahaha!
Even if acquisitions were allowable, they don't have Reign any more.

[Temple Fugate]

If I won... ::dream sequence initiate!::

11:00 - Big O #20: "Stripes"
11:30 - Big O #20: "Stripes"
12:00 - Big O #20: "Stripes"
12:30 - Big O #20: "Stripes"
1:00 - Big O #20: "Stripes"
1:30 - Big O #20: "Stripes"

OK OK, I'd actually do this:

11:00 - SGC2C "Jacksonville"
11:15 - SGC2C "Snatch"
11:30 - SGC2C "Fire Ant" the long version that aired only once
12:00 - Sealab 2021 "I, Robot"
12:15 - ATHF "Cybernetic Ghost (of Christmas Past from the Future)"
12:30 - Welcome to Eltingville pilot
1:00 - The Venture Bros pilot
1:30 - Space Ghost in Perfect Hair Forever
1:45 - Anime Talk Show

[livingfruitvirus]

No one wants to utilize the encore hours?

[Karl Olson]

No one wants to utilize the encore hours?

To marathon the whole of Pilot Candidate would take the encore hours. :D

[Pepperidge]

Nah, I'd just try to figure out a way to get "To be or Nazi be" on the air, even if I had to kick Pioneer/whatever"kewl"nametheyuse in the balls.
Somehow I suspect that TMS are the ones who don't want it to air.

[turbomog007]

If I won I would so get them to air PHF and random episodes of ripping friends, but I would demands that they only air 15 minutes of the Ripping friends episodes at a time. Then play the shows backwards. I know they probably will say no but I can dream can't I.

[James Bester]

Too bad. I cant enter because Im only 15. If I did get to run adult swim for a day, it'd really depend on if it were a weekday, saturday, or sunday. Here's what I'd do.

Weekday
11:00 Family Guy
11:30 Home Movies
12:00 FMA
12:30 Case Closed
1:00 Big O
1:30 Cowboy Bebop

Saturday(All action like it should be)
11:00 FMA
11:30 GITS
12:00 Inuyasha
12:30 Trigun
1:00 Case Closed
1:00 FLCL

Sunday
11:00 Family Guy
11:30 Futurama
12:00 Venture Bros.
12:30 Home Movies
1:00 ATHF
1:15 SGC2C
1:30 Harvey Birdman
1:45 The Brak Show

[Schism]

My night would be as follows:

11:00 = Family Guy - "When you Wish upon a Weinstein"
11:30 = Harvey Birdman: AAL = "Bannon Custody Case"
11:45 = Sealab 2021 = "Hail Squishface"
12:00 = Ghost in the Shell SAC Episode 12: "Escape From"
12:30 = Big O II Episode 18: "The Greatest Villain"
1:00 = Wolf's Rain Episode 26 With full end theme. This deserves to be seen in full, dammit.
1:30 = Cowboy Bebop Episode 24: "Hard Luck Woman"

And for the encore hours, a full run of FLCL.

And the cards will be rife with Mystery Science Theater 3000 references.

[Mr. Insomnia]

All Home Movies. Because we all know it's the only show worth marathon...ing.

[ClockStomper]

The official rules say "originals" only. Bad because most of the best AS shows are aquisitions (including breadwinners Family Guy and Futurama). But I think Big O may count, since CN did pay for it.

I'm not thrilled with being restricted to the WS shows, but making the best of it by showing old school Space Ghost and Big O would be a good comprimise. Of course the rules also say they can change your line-up at their discretion, so I wouldn't be surprised if someone make up a schedule and it turns into a Sealab marathon.

[DarkHorse]

I don't think rules would let you have your way. :D

Meanwhile, I entered. I'm not sure whether originals includes aquisitions or what (original programming could just mean shows that air on Adult Swim. It's a legally ambigous phrase,) but I suppose I could just do an evening of Rejected (hey they own the rights, they've got to air it sometime, why not 12 times in a row?)
On the subject of Rejected, at Comic-Con for past two years I have asked about it (both at the large panel, and directly in person with several AS people). It's basically in limbo - all that stands in the way is Standards & Practices. I'm sure we all got a pretty decent picture from ATHF's "Geewhiz" episode about Turner S&P. So beyond that, we're just waiting to see if anything happens.

And as for me... yes I have entered. If possible, I will use the encore hours as well to display more shows instead of replays.

And no, you don't get to know... be assured that my ideas will not, I repeat not, include any of the following scenarios: A complete marathon of InuYasha. (I like IY, just not enough to paste it all over AS for a night)

I'm hoping it's possible to do something with the bumps as well.

May whoever is selected be wise in their decisions.

[Temple Fugate]

No one wants to utilize the encore hours?
The contest rules specifically state a three-hour block of programming. They've had 2am-5am for a year, haven't they? Why must WS waste such perfect opportunities to run oldies like SGC2C, Brak, Lupin and Gundam 0083?

If I could use the other three hours, I'd probably do a SGC2C marathon with episodes chosen via a poll on this very message board. ;)

[Rabi~en~Rose]

rule change! now you can use any show AS currently runs anime now included!

[Maestro]

Yes! They changed the rules! On the day the contest ends! Well, better late than never I suppose.

[Prince Valmont]

Entered!

If I win, I plan to run a marathon of Pilot Candidate with visual vocab cards of me and friends getting completely smashed off Boones Farm Strawberry wine and Natty light.
Heh heh.... Pilot Candidate..

Seriously though, if we cant choose from anime (most likely due to airing rights & legal crap), I would run 3 hours of originally written B&w cards, complete with one AND two way coversations with a possibly fictionalized character.

Come on, its our turn to get creative. Old promos, Meguzi-flaming, Moltar-Praising (Yes, its an attack on an entirely different block), but cards should speak our minds.

Oh yeah, and the $1000.

[DarkHorse]

Excellent... now with the rule change, an even better schedule can be created!

Now here's to hoping we can use the repeat hours for an uber-block.

[Beat]

Now my dream of Venture Brothers and Lupin III back to back can be a reality.

[Paul_Cousins]

Well since I am not a sadist, I will not enter this contest.

But the Adult Swim CN schedule I would have would leave you weeping in pain from the drama and tragedy of my six episode line-up. It would be in this order;


Big O Season II: Negotiation With the Dead
Trigun: Sin
Cowboy Bebop: Real Folk Blues Part 2
Wolf's Rain: OVA "Wolf's Rain" (Last episode)
Fullmetal Alchemist: Night of the Chimera's Cry
Ghost in the Shell 'Stand Alone Complex': Jungle Cruise


If you can watch those six episodes, one after another, in that order, and not shed a single tear, then you are not human. :evil:

[maximumzero]

To Whomever Wins:

"Please play the "Return to Eltingville" Pilot, as I miss it."

Signed,

Milton

(I probably misspelled "Eltingville", but whatever.)

[Youko Recca]

I hope whoever wins wants to see that Yung girl get snatched up by a Blue again....

[Yash]

Too late :(

Whoever wins, it better not be one of the three Landstander mentioned. That would suck...

If I had my way, it'd be filled with CC, FMA, Lupin, and a Fooly Cooly marathon if I had 6 hours.

[SpiritualRemain]

With the rule change, I'm tempted to be evil if I win.

How about Big O Episode 21-25, then we play Stripes? :evil: :evil: :D
