Wait...it's letting me vote again, what?! Aha, perhaps phone vs laptop? muahahaha.

TuElite I think you should hold both a larger 1v1 tourney and a FFA or two and give away separate things if at all possible

Vorgrim I think it's not so much the KARA merch as being able to play sc together in some cases but still ^^

I can hardly believe 100+ people in this thread would even want a Kara cd, let alone vote on a method of competing for one.

I don't think the focus was on the syrup, but rather a viscus, translucent and edible liquid covering an attractive lady's naked body. It's not a completely unprecedented fantasy.

Its more we want to see nerds beating on nerds for pictures of women and recordings of their voices. Plus the bragging rights.

Since you put it like that, let the games commence! I would be interested in watching if someone streamed it at least.

I only have those that came with the Step DVD. I don't really see the need for cards now that I already have a couple and can carry those around in my wallet lol. If it came in a nice package, similar to Step DVD, sure I'd buy that, but just cards on their own, nope, not really interested.

Aerisky, I will consider that, depending on how much money I have, there's a lot of cool stuff coming out in August-September + Nicole's birthday in October, I have to donate for that... And I'm going back to school so yeah I won't have a $1000 of stuff to give away, that's for sure...

NA if it comes down to SC2.

I'll have one account to lend if someone will need it.

See, this is why you do BW.

You don't have to worry about "what server do we play on" as everybody can play on the same server without shelling out cash if you play BW.

Isn't BW technically winning by 2 votes? And most of those are lurkers anyway. What you should do is have people who are interested PM you that they're interested, and then include whether they'd like to play BW or SC2. That way the only people voting are people who are actually playing.

Contest idea:
Whoever can get the farthest in QWOP wins the Kara stuff.

Edit: And it has to be atleast close to a running motion, none of the splits and shimmying along shenanigans.

There's like 25-30 consistent posters and there's 100 or so votes...

You people act like there aren't a ton of lurkers in this thread. When polls happen, there are always a lot of votes and every poster keeps commenting on it.

TuElite specifically said only regulars in the tourney, no randoms, no? All the randoms be votin' and trying to get in on the Kara goodness. You're a good person for setting this up TuElite, I'd never give away free kpop goodies.

I guess there has been enough 9muses talk recently to justify posting this. Bit of a weird one.

Will leave you with another nice track.

Just out of curiosity, who is going to the 2NE1 concert in NJ tomorrow? All of my friends that I've asked think kpop is gay (they just don't understand...) and I have no one to go w/ as of right now. I'm still considering buying last minute tickets (forever alone), but it'd be cool to meet up for a few minutes and have a few autism/fanboi-moments before the concert

I am going but I won't have time to hang out unless it's at the sound check party ><. I had a really hard time myself finding someone to go with but I managed to drag my cousin. He could be a Jersey Shore cast off so this should be interesting....

Some 2ne1 pics from when they arrived at JFK.

For the most part they came out pretty shitty but here is the link if you are interested.
Link to the rest of the pics

Looks like they attracted some paparazzi which I found a little surprising. The girls looked really happy with the turnout! Maybe even a little shocked.

Less than 24hrs until the concert!!!!!! Anyone have experience with sound check parties? I was wondering if they let you in and then back out of the arena? Or do you just stay until the show starts? Also, is there a chance to get an autograph and give a present? Any help would be much appreciated!

I was just down at ye olde grocery store buying dinner when i came across the garbage magazines. I literally felt grossed out looking at them and I can't stand to watch trash like TMZ, yet I come home and thrive off paparazzi shots of 2NE1 and kpop drama. I'm such a hypocrite... Since majority of 2NE1 songs are raps do they still have the backing track with the vocals?
Anyways, I expect a writeup and many pictures from the show glhf yo.

You actually are comparing American pop culture to Kpop? It's not even fucking close dude, disgust and hate are the correct response to most western media.
