I tried to add this as a video and it didn't work. I think it's the fucking funniest thing I've ever seen in my life. Um also a little bit sad, but for the most part totally hilarious.






hulu and buzznet don't work together right now i guess. here's a much shabbier version:

BUZZMOB ONLY! Here's the banner code, and remember, unlimited screenshots will be accepted until midnight PST on September 2nd. If you choose to participate in this mission after that, 5 screenshots will receive credit (as long as you haven't already posted 5 screenshots)

I posted this in the forum and twittered it around 3am PST this morning, but just in case:

And sorry, Buzzmob only! Think you can do better? Not a mobster?
It's all good:

First thing's first: Karlalikesboys rules at life. It's true. I had the forum thread for the August playlist mission up for MORE than a month, and she was the only mobster who managed to complete the whole mission! You guys forgot to add two posts for each artist on your playlist, and tag them "buzzmob-august". As a result, she wins. That means that her playlist will be the buzzmob's audio player for the month of August. I'm also sending her some presents to express my appreciation.

But that doesn't mean you guys suck. In fact, you all totally kick ass. The amoung of activity in this group is super overwhelming and I can't tell you all how pleased I am! And FYI - I am taking into account EVERYBODY's mission suggestions. Don't forget to make sure your email address is updated and verified with buzznet, because I'm going to start sending out a weekly newsletter really soon, and I don't want any of you to miss that! Also, if you have a twitter account you might want to follow the buzzmob on twitter so you don't miss out on any bonus missions!

I will soon post details about the permanent missions, which include creative, real-life buzzmobbing. For now, here are missions that are still running:

Related Groups: BUZZMOB

1. No spamming
2. Don't post it on message boards/profiles/in groups that don't fit the theme.
3. I think myspace will be a GOLDMINE for this one
4. So will live journal, imeem, and some celebrity sites.
5. Please don't post it on buzznet, foe, or celebuzz.
6. The contest ends on July 29th, so the mission ends on July 29th.
7. Submit upto 8 screenshots (appropriate tags: ONLY buzzmob! do not tag these with "audrey kitching"!!)
   
8. Make sure you are not re-posting the info!
9. If the contest info and/or banner are already on the page you wanted to post on, find a new one!

Hey Mobsters! I'm super sorry that everything has been so over-warped! I haven't forgotten about you guys, I swear! This post is to let you all know that the Jack's Mannequin contest ended today, so no more screenshots with that banner in them will be accepted. Also, you can go ahead and remove the banners from your other sites whenever you get a chance.

Regarding real-life buzzmobbing: I'm REALLY, REALLY pleased with ALL of your submissions - even though I DID expect more, because I KNOW I mailed a ton of stuff to people who haven't given me any proof of promoting yet - but what I've received so far is pretty impressive.

There's a new submission form to the scavenger hunt: each item you find and submit a photo of will be worth 50 points. So if you only find 5 things on the list, you get 250 points AND you'll be in the lead, which also puts you in the running for the grand prize. Plus, ask ohiougirl2018 - she did some SERIOUS buzzmobbing at Warped Tour and wound up with a featured gallery, about 15 photos of her creative Buzznet promotion, AND 3 submissions to the scavenger hunt. That's a total of 250+ points.

IT'S EASY!

It should also be noted that we're going to start something new: Beginning August 1st, the "real life buzzmobbing" will be a constant, monthly mission. Each mobster can submit upto 30 photos per month of his or her UNIQUE and CREATIVE buzznet promotion. Example:

LaShaunda and antid0ll took some Buzznet pins to the FNMTV taping and when the lights were dimmed you could see a cluster of 'em glowing in the dark!


Blackparadegirl MADE her own Buzznet shirt and wore it to Summerfest:

ohiougirl2018 made an I <3 Buzznet sign and got band members to sign it!

Ideas: videos, celebrity throwbacks, school assemblies, sporting events, concerts, newspaper/magazine articles - anything you can present cold, hard, PROOF of is ok by me! As long as it's legal! Each photo/video/screenshot will be worth 5 points, and the Buzznet staff will pick the mobster whose promotion was the most impressive! So put your thinking caps on and get ready to represent!

Also - since we have a really bad tracking system in the group, I've decided that I won't be giving points for comments on posts - there's just no way to efficiently keep track of that and it turns into an overwhelming waste of time. Stay tuned for a NEW point chart!

In the meantime, go to the galleries section and check out the photos from the Soundtrack of Your Summer Tour on July 19th because my friend took 'em and they are AWESOME!

Comments? Questions? Concerns? Suggestions?
LAY 'EM ON ME!

P.S!! Let me know if you are into Audrey Kitching or Tokio Hotel because there are some Buzzmob opportunities coming up!

You've undoubtedly heard all about who showed up at the Knitting Factory last night to celebrate the release of The Maine's new record (droppin' names - Pete Wentz, Paris Hilton, Jeffree Star, me!) In case you didn't get your hands on the hottest ticket in Hollywood - you can live vicariously through The Maine's CD Release Party right here on Buzznet.  Details please ...

I realized I never told you guys what the prize was supposed to be: but that's a good thing cause I've changed it anyway. Since nobody has submitted a damn thing with respects to this, which really pisses me off cause I sent like 30 packages and I've only seen evidence from like 4 of you... THE STAKES HAVE BEEN UPPED! Rewards for participation are as follows:

50 points per item on the list (which makes it worth it to submit 3 things if thats all you got!)
Grand prize will be YOUR CHOICE between:

1. A MYSTERY PRIZE
2. 5,000 buzzmob points

You should ask some of those to whom I've already sent stuff just how sweet some of the prizes can be. Talk to juztinxcore, ounceofwentz, alcy, thraseia, brendonurieismyhomeboy, jeffreydenton, ikkyg, etc. and I'm sure they'll assure you that the mystery prize is not going to be something stupid like a package of skittles. It's worth will either equal or exceed the value of 5,000 buzzmob points.

SO START SUBMITTING STUFF! View the scavenger hunt list in the forum:
http://www.buzznet.com/groups/buzzmob/forum/topics/334921/

Other stuff you can still do:
A writeup about your warped tour experience
RSVP for a show in Buzznet Tours

So my powerbook is busted and I'm borrowing mommy's lap top. Unfortunately it's a pc. Where can I get cool free programs, mainly like developer tools, that won't give me viruses? Pc's always get viruses. Holla back!
