From our last post on the subject : With Halloween around the corner , there ’s one thought that scare off us more than any other . It ’s not Dracula or reanimated army corps . It ’s not TP’d houses or razor brand confect . It ’s the day when robots turn on humans in the battle for Earth . And to preparation for the result , we ’re throwing a contest . Dress up like a robot that ’s turned on the human race , maybe win a pizza . Nice reply so far guys , but we have a few notes about the entries we ’ve been receive : Some of you have done big , but most of you are just air yourselves in a automaton costume from 2003 . No offence , but we do not care about your old pictures from when you still listened to Nelly . We desire pictures in which you , as a robot , are turning on Man ( read : not just hang out with Him ) . Think less robots dancing by a keg and more robots steal a keg with a rout of angry human race chase behind . trance the present moment of singularity . Capture our downfall . And in case you ’ve forgotten the luxurious pillage , one of you will come through a whole pizza . Now , I know a lot of you study that and think we mean a big . Well , we do not mean a with child . We ’re talking about an extra bombastic . Feed yourself and someone you love . The only catches are that all submission must be : 1 . Original Non - Photoshopped Photos 2 . receive by November 1st air all of your best shot to tips@giz with the headline “ Robots Turn on humankind ” for incoming , along with your contact info . May the beggarly golem win . [ Photo by Steve Madonna ]
