Same here. And please don't say that you have to be eighteen.

EDIT: Okay, found some info (http://www.adultswim.com/promos/200707_bk/index.html). To summarize, you have to watch AS this Sunday (July 1st) and next Sunday (July 8th) and call a toll-free number. And you have to be 18-34 years old. Shoot. Well, I hope the older members here will enter and choose something decent.

I'd enter, but I'm Camera shy.

The guy last year was pretty good. He kept giving random trivia about the episodes during the cards. The azn girl, however...

So you get to program it for a whole night? What happened last year? Was it any good?

Last year was all of FLCL, then some FMA, Cowboy Bebop, and a few other anime series' that escape me. The previous year was lots of Venture Bros. and Home Movies, and some Futuramas.

I'll clear up the unknown about last year.

11:00 - FLCL (Episode 1)
11:30 - FLCL (Episode 2)
12:00 - FLCL (Episode 3)
12:30 - FLCL (Episode 4)
01:00 - FLCL (Episode 5)
01:30 - FLCL (Episode 6)
02:00 - Cowboy Bebop (Episode 25)
02:30 - Cowboy Bebop (Episode 26)
03:00 - Trigun (Episode 13)
03:30 - Trigun (Episode 26)
04:00 - Paranoia Agent (Episode 3)
04:30 - Paranoia Agent (Episode 8)
05:00 - FullMetal Alchemist (Episode 3)
05:30 - Samurai Champloo (Episode 1)

All in all, it was a good lineup. Plus, the winner last year had bumps before every episode that had reasons why he picked the episodes meshed with witty comments that were AS quality. I hope someone can make a lineup as good as that one this year.

That's a pretty good line up. I hope we get a variety this year, I've never seen it before, so it should be fun to see what someone comes up with. Thanks for the schedule from 2 years ago LFV, and thanks for the exact schedule from last year D Dubbs.

Last year proved to be quite a challenge for future contestants. How can anyone top the '06 lineup?

I would fill the whole schedule with the Champloo zombie episode.

There's your answer Daikun. LOL, that would be hilarious.

Joking aside, I wonder when AS is planning to do this. Last year they did it in the first Saturday of August. There aren't any plans for it on the AS schedule at the time being, so unless they decide to preempt something, this won't happen until at least the beginning of September.

Well, if you wanna be that way...

I'd propose an all-night Groovenians marathon.

Wow, that'd be harsh. Only way to top that horribleness would be reairing the Spumco Yogi Bear shorts again and again, because we surley didn't get enough of that when AS aired it over and over again early last year right? I might try and enter with you know a real schedule idea. At the very least be a good time to ask if they still have the rights to Rejected. Even hearing a no from them would at least be somewhat informative.

I'm going to try to enter just so I can write the cards. No matter what schedule I make I probably wouldn't really care to watch it as I almost never watch reruns. To be honest, I'd probably just let people I know choose the schedule. They let you have an Adult Swim party don't you? I mean, as much as I'd love to put a Paranoia Agent marathon on, I just don't know if it's the type of show you'd watch at a party, unless you have E at the party.

You wouldn't be able to do that because of the reason you stated.

A Paranoia Agent marathon would be awesome. I'd put the Groovenians on after that. Just to top it off with even more drugginess.

That sounds like a terrible idea. :)

Kids, drugs are bad.

According to Explosivo_420 on the AS forums you get to program the schedule and choose either:
A: a trip to williams street for a behind the scenes tour/ a camera to document the trip/ and the entire adult swim DVD library
B: a party for you and your friends on the fateful night, with a big screen TV to watch it onOption A is pretty tempting. I would probably choose it over Option B.

But if I programmed a night of Adult Swim, you'd recognize it by the healthy slabs of Space Ghost: Coast to Coast. And maybe some Lupin.

So Im guessing they upped the age limit then, or am I confusing it with American Idol? Either way, I'm entering. I've had mine planned out since the first one, and I'm gonna make DAMN sure that many of my threats come to pass - Captain Linger - "Trouble If It's Fair run after EVERY show, Penguins Behind Bars, and the hell with it if they're not a sponsor anymore, and solid hour of the Juicy Fruit Commerical. Too bad I probbaly couldn't do any episdoe remixing or anything :evil:. (SOOO taking option A to make the cards with...)

Hmmm...well, I'd probably base my decision on the things that I get to keep. Cause trips and parties are fun, but merchandise lasts forever...or till I'm dead...maybe... Anyway, I really don't care that much about Adult Swim DVDs. I rarely watch shows again after I've already seen them. Besides, some of the Williams Street shows are great, like Robot Chicken and Moral Orel, but how would I ever explain why I have a Tim and Eric DVD on my shelf? I'd invite a girl over to my room and she'd ***** slap me for having poor taste in comedy, unless she was a fan of Tim and Eric, in which case I would ***** slap her.

The camera might be nice. I assume it's a video camera. If I had a video camera maybe I could finally audition for Survivor, or the lazy man's Survivor, Big Brother.

Though, the big screen TV definitely sounds awesome. My TV's nice, don't get me wrong. But, a big screen TV would rule. Though, I think big screen TVs tend to break pretty easily. My parents had a big screen TV and the picture sucks now. It's all bent and stuff.

By the way, what does the party consist of? I assume they provide munchies and stuff. What kind of munchies? What about booze? You know, I'm really leaning toward option B. I mean, why the hell would I want a tour of William's Street?

God, that's hilarious. You should rant more often.

I don't know anything else about the prizes, but we might learn more tonight.
