This was my first drive-in challenge so I'm satisfied with my total, and I see a lot of familiar names in the sub-20 category so I'm in good company. Definitely a lot of stuff I ran across that I'd like to watch next year, though.
Glad to have you back, Trevor

Nope. Caligula last posted about being really busy back in June and then was never heard from again.

Maybe someone else should run the challenge next year because the sputtering out of this year's challenge is pretty disappointing. I would at least like to have known what books were offered as prizes.

I just checked and that post on 6/02/11 was his last post in the entire site. I'm worried. Mentioned health issues, hope he's ok. Anyone friends with him on Facebook or real life?

I wouldn't go that far. A results thread and prize list are nice bonuses, but not essential to a fun month/Challenge.

It's not that hard to pick random winners and send them PMs. Since GoldenWheels said he still has the prizes and number2 was nice enough to make a list of participants, I wouldn't have a problem picking the winners if people are okay with that (and we don't hear from caligula).

If he's having health issues, then none of this matters, of course.

We're from the same city. Maybe I should head to the South Drive In and start asking random people if they are Caligula

Glad to see that Caligula is alright.
Even without all the lists/prizes and such, we all got a month to discuss/watch Exploitation films

Yeah, I don't want to see the mods taking a lot of flak for perceived inadequacies. I think that may have played a part in killing off the sheep games. I could be wrong...

I'm looking at the prizes from my desk. So they're still here. I feel kind of weird about all this--I will gladly still send out the prizes but I want 0 to do with deciding who gets them and don't want to get any grief after the fact.

If nobody minds, I can throw up a lame list like I do for my other challenges and assign prizes the same way, which is how this one does it since I stole the idea from this challenge.

What were the prizes for this one? I don't think it was ever announced.
What do you mean by "a lame list"?

My lame winners list that don't use fancy tables and graphics. It'll look like my other winner lists. All other challenges put me to shame.

I'll have to blame the devil's nectar on that one. The thought did cross my mind Saturday but then I had a horrible hangover all day Sunday, when I normally do that stuff.
