Jun. 6th, 2009 @ 01:45 pm Be a Vampire in a DCTV skit!
Hey, guys,

I'm one of the people behind Dragon*Con TV, the group that does short films that are played in the registration lines and before panels and big events like the Masquerade. I'm working on one where I need vampires who are easily recognizable from media. That's where you come in!

I'd like to have someone dressed as Spike (since the hair is so recognizable) and, sadly, Edward Cullen, though I am open to other possibilities. This is for non-speaking roles in the Atlanta area. You'd need to be able to spend about four hours one Saturday afternoon/Sunday day in late June or early-to-mid July.

If you're interested, please drop me a line at stephen@granades.com and we'll take it from there. Thanks!

NOW, some guidelines for this particular poll. IMDB/Google are your friends. DO NOT give me a description of the episode/song, google it (or dig through your dvd's), find the title of the episode/song, and give me that.

Because I expect to get a wide range of answers on these, I am leaving this poll up longer (probably til Monday or longer if necessary) so that I will actually be able to give decent points. So far I am having to discard some of the answers because I have 20 answers with only 1 vote each. If I used all of them, 1 round would take an hour. Those of you who watched Family Feud know that even in the original series, there were never more than 12 possible answers to any survey. I'm trying to keep it between 5 and 10 so we can have more surveys. Because of this, I'm having to do the points differently, rather than 100 possible points per round some questions will give 75, 85, 90, etc. I can see this batch of questions giving me even more onesies which is why I plan to leave it up longer in hopes of getting more than 100 answers.

So, here you have it, the all important "what's your favorite episode"...

Here's the next batch of questions for our Whedon Family Feud game. Please note the 2nd question asks for "Coolest Demon" but asks that you not use a main character, meaning not Spike, Angel, Anya, etc. We're trying to actually tap into your character trivia knowledge for this one. And as before I will lock this poll once I get 100 answers.

Apr. 26th, 2009 @ 07:14 pm The Top 10 Whedon Universe Villains
Current Location: Kitchen table
Current Mood: productive

For our Top 10 panel this year we had a lot of good suggestions and it looks like the most favor went towards a countdown honoring the Top 10 Villians/Big Bads in all Whedonverse shows. 

So reply to this thread and give us your Top 10 villains in order.  You can include characters from any Joss Whedon work whether its comics, TV, or movies.

Voting will run up until June 30th so that I will have time to put the video together.  So there it is.  Give us your best ..err worst characters.

Apr. 22nd, 2009 @ 04:14 pm Whedon Family Feud
Current Mood: productive
We are discussing bringing back Whedon Family Feud this year.

In past years, we've done this game by polling the people at the first panel, but this year, we will be polling you all over the interwebs so we get a LOT of answers and people participating.

Also, the idea is to have 2 teams (much like the game show) IN COSTUME. The first team will represent Buffy/Angel, the other will represent Serenifly. The host of the game will most likely cover Dr. Horrible. So you get to play a fun game and win cool prizes and show off your costumes all in one shot!

Most likely we will sign up players when the track opens on Friday and the game itself will be a different day (depends on our schedule).

So, there's your official heads up! Keep an eye on our Live Journal Community (http://community.livejournal.com/whedontrack_dc/) and our MySpace Page (http://www.myspace.com/whedonversetrack) for the actual polls!!
