Many long days ago, i posted a message here[^] describing an informal contest to see who could put the best beard on Bob. To follow the instructions to the letter, you would cause a beard to appear on Bob's face as he stands guard over the top of the page.
Shawn Wilde is the only person who completed the task *exactly*. Others were content with providing screenshots demonstrating they had completed the task, or just providing images of a bearded Bob wandering apart from CP.
Here's how i'm ranking contestants at present; if anyone cares to correct me on my estimation of a person's skill, please reply with your take on who's best, who's better - i'll accept a 1-5 rating on each contestant :
- Shaun Wilde
Instructions: Move Mouse over me and then look at Bob when message disappears.
+5 for following rules exactly - Jason Henderson

If so many people miss to complete the rules, it's probably because they weren't very clear
My vote to Shaun Wilde, the best idea so far
One small village of indomitable geeks still holds out against the invaders. And life is not easy for the managers legionaries who garrison the fortified camps of Microsoftum, Javum, Ceplumplum and Vebasum

Oh, i agree - there's a good reason why i'm a coder & not a tech writer...

Thanks Karl
I actually forgot all about this over xmas - I was 1/2 cut when I did it in the first place hence the crappy graphic
Codeproject has since changed the text output rules so onmouseover no longer works - however OnMouseUp does so I have changed the code on my pages so you now have to click the text

Wouldn't that be Bob on "Playboy day"?
and no disillusioning my youthful innocence by telling me there's no "Playboy day"...

Yeah... that's the normal one though. I did use The Internet Archive Wayback Machine, but it only had the Canada Day holiday saved, and that doesn't seem to exist on CP anymore. I'm starting to suspect these are not perminant, but are here more because someone didn't delete them when they were done...

I hereby and hencewith transfer the ownership of the following CPian quotes to you, Josh:

"You sir, are a nut." - Jason Jystad
You are obviously far better suited to them than myself...
What on satan's green earth were you smoking when you sat down and thought that post up? I'm not going to ask if I can have some this time - I fear my feeble mind and body would not be able to cope with a susbstance of that magnitude.

My man, trully a good cooking happiness point of view
BTW, my wife is adoring the aesthics course and she is taking good grades at it, I got a new job, so the "how even a rock can change the world, simply by remaining obstinately stationary" is giving very good results
Cheers,Joao Vaz
And if your dream is to care for your family, to put food on the table, to provide them with an education and a good home, then maybe suffering through an endless, pointless, boring job will seem to have purpose. And you will realize how even a rock can change the world, simply by remaining obstinately stationary.-Shog9
