This is a contest about making a drink, take a photo of it and write about how it was done.

§1 Definition of drink:
a) It should contain at least 2 ingredients.
b) It should be something like a "drink". A strawberry margarita that you have to eat with a spoon or jelly shots might be OK, but chocolate with vodka in it definitely isn't.
c) It can be with or without alcohol.
d) It must not contain stuff that aren't allowed in most countries. For example you might have caffeine pills in it, although they aren't legal in Norway, but no weed in it, even if you legally can buy that in the Netherlands.
e) You should like the drink at least a little.

§2 Your drink-page should follow this format:
a) The wiki-page's name should be the drink's name.
b) Then there should be a heading with the drink's name.
c) Then there should a photo of the drink.
d) Then the ingredients.
e) Then a description of how to make it and other comments, more photos, links and what every you like.
f) And finally a link back to drink.

§3 You might submit as many drink-pages as you want. If you think that submitting only one drink is better for your chances to win, then put the link to your other drink-pages under non competing drinks.

§4 The page must follow these rules:
a) Be exported.
b) All the included images must be uploaded to Elfpack.
c) If there are humans in a picture, they have to have given their express permission to be included in this competition.
d) The page must stay up after the competition. You can add stuff to it and improve it afterwards, but spare us from "I had to remove the image because my boyfriend no longer wants to be there." and similar annoyances.

§5 The "best" page will be selected in a poll. So try to go for funny image, great looks and unique features.

§6 The drink has to be mixed by you (possibly with help of someone) and the photo too (also possibly with help of someone). You don't have to had invented neither the drink nor its name. But if you're planing to win with a dry martini page, then it probably has to include both Bond and a bunch of his babes...

§7 [Hedda] is the contest boss.

§8 Deadline is 2007-04-04: Update: 2007-05-05.

§9 The winner will get donor-privs and the honour of being the maker of the best drink on Elfpack 2007.

Note: Even if your drink is a boring standard-drink or just not liked by the Elfpackers, it can still get you a prize in the Google bait contest at some later time.

Back to Elfpack contests

2007-02-06 [FireGypsy]: Alright, so I am going to do this thing anyway and get a pic of it when I can. My problem.....naming it O_o

2007-02-07 [Hedda]: "The Burnnout Drink", of course <img:dand-gif.gif>

2007-02-07 [FireGypsy]: No, I named it A Cherry's Dream ^_^

2007-02-07 [Hedda]: Looks very nice. You're just missing 2b and 2c now <img:img/mood/5_1116340164.jpg>

2007-02-07 [FireGypsy]: I am not missing 2b, the heading is in red sparkly letters! How could you miss that! I know I am missing the picture ^_^ I have to take it the next time I am at my friend's house and make it ^_^

2007-02-07 [Hedda]: It's images, not a heading. I suggest that you do something like:

A Cherry's dream

*INSERT IMAGE*

<img:B/a.gif>

2007-02-07 [FireGypsy]: Are you kidding? That looks like pooop. So what if it is an image. It is the name of the drink and the heading to my page. Rule 2b says nothing about it having to be an elfpack text heading. And the last time I checked, my heading does spell out "A Cherry's Dream" without the ' of course. So technically, it is a heading, and it stays!

2007-02-07 [Hedda]: You can of course make your wiki-page like you want, but it will not be accepted to this competition without a proper heading.

The set of images will not be found in a search for the drink. So if I scroll down and write "cherry dream" in the Google-search, it will be harder to find. I might find it anyway, bad a good heading that both search engines and people easily can read is good. I personally often copy that text when I'm building a wiki-link to the page. If it exists, it's easier to find than the text to the right with the wiki-page name.

Images can't be a heading. And you can still use the fancy annoying letters, but there should be a heading too.

2007-02-07 [FireGypsy]: XD It IS a heading, just not the type of heading that you are looking for lol! If you want I will write "A Cherry's Dream" on the page for you!

2007-02-07 [Hedda]: Thankie! <img:dand-gif.gif>

Then we just have to wait for the actual drink. If you don't want to bother with taking a photo of it, you can just make one and send it here, and I'll make the photo of it while drinking it...

2007-02-07 [FireGypsy]: Like I said, I dont have a bar in my house. My friend does however! Hopefully I will be over there this weekend or so and I will make it and take a picture of it ^_^ It is SOOOOOOOOOO good!

2007-02-07 [IanaP]: I have an idea about one amazing drink that can blow minds literally and it tastes good...one of my friends drink only 2 tequilla glasses and he couldnt go back home <img:mood2-gif.gif>

2007-03-06 hana: hahah shum faca coooollll

2007-03-07 [kittykittykitty]: Haha... I've never seen not-logged-in people make comments before XD

That reminds me that I intended to make a drink. I have a few hours before college tomorrow and a fully stocked drinks cupboard <img:shadN-gif.gif>

2007-03-07 [FireGypsy]: Dude those not logged in people ALWAYS find their way to my pages with pictures on them XD

2007-03-11 [Hedda]: You suck! I'm like 4 times better than all other Elfpackers together at making drinks! (If you count the 2 halfdone pages as one...)

2007-03-22 [FireGypsy]: No way dude, I am the ^CHAMP at making drinks!

2007-03-22 [Hedda]: Maybe, but we're still waiting for that wiki-page <img:dand-gif.gif>

2007-03-22 [MarieFair]: swweeet, so it can be as complicated or as not complicated as you like?

2007-03-22 [Hedda]: Yes.

2007-03-22 [FireGypsy]: You are, but that is because I do not have a bar in my house XD Ohh if only I had a bar in my house *daydreams*
