$20k + hot chick = skins 4 u?

$20k + hot chick = skins 4 u?

-:Nighthawk:- @ 12:10 am pdt on 4/12/08 - skins, maps, & textures

In case you haven't noticed, the SOTD section has been rather inactive for a while now. The good news is that I'm totally willing to re-open it, but there's a catch as the title implies.

My girl is competing for a $20k scholarship, and the winner is determined by popular online vote. It's down to the final 4, and I know the CSN community can push her to victory! Voting takes less than 10 seconds, is totally anonymous, just requires typing a short code from a security image and clicking "Vote me!" under Kayleen Hannaway's profile.

In return for your support... I'm spending altogether way too much of my limited free time getting reviews done for your custom-modeling pleasure, starting with these new ones. Feedback on what types of models you'd like to see reviewed would be appreciated! I'd also love to hear from anybody who is interested in joining the CSN team and becoming a SOTD reviewer... I'll post details in the comments.

Don't let me down, get voting!


comment #1 -:Nighthawk:- Xfire me. (91%) My Steam Community 12:18 am pdt - 4/12/08	Definitely use the comments to say whether you'd like me to focus on CS:S or CS1.6, and whether you'd like to see more UMP and TMP models or add even more options to our huge M4/AK venues, or whatever else suits your fancy. Now, onto details for if you'd like to join the CSN team as a SOTD reviewer. My contact info is sitting to the left under my avatar. My 'nighthawk at csnation dot net' email account has been sketchy lately, so you can try it if you want, but I definitely recommend adding me in Friends or Xfire if you're serious about joining the CSN team. Requirements? Maturity and a decent grasp of the English language are probably the most important. Being able to use a photo-editing program to crop/resize images is a definite plus as well. Beyond that... mostly looking for someone or a few people who won't flake out on me after the first week. :) Shoot me a message if you'd like to give it a try, and please don't forget to VOTE for Kayleen Hannaway!

Hey, better now than later. :D Good luck to your girl, Nighthawk!

comment #4 sathanas 1:54 am pdt - 4/12/08	Voted for her but I doubt she'll win. I mean look who she's up against. Asian. :P Good luck to her though. If you can find me a Hello Kitty M4 that would be awesome.

comment #5 IC dead people 1:54 am pdt - 4/12/08	Voted for your chick but the Asian girl is hotter!lol

comment #6 I2o[G]uE TacT-X TO DIRECTX 7, OR NOT TO DIRECTX 7, THAT IS THE QUESTION! 2:20 am pdt - 4/12/08	Your girlfriend is still in high school.

comment #10 -:Nighthawk:- Xfire me. (91%) My Steam Community 8:46 pm pdt - 4/12/08	Thanks for your support so far, and keep it coming! Her competitor managed to pull over 10,600 votes last round, so she's quite a formidable opponent! The voting on the Final Four lasts until sometime on the 16th so there's a lot of time for this to go either way and every vote counts! As far as the Hello Kitty M4 request... does it have to be an M4 (or AR-15 variant in this case), or would an AK-47 or perhaps a .460 Smith & Wesson Magnum is more your style? ;) Seriously though... you guys play more CS1.6 or more CS:S these days, if either?

comment #11 Zips Tin God - #csnation 9:15 pm pdt - 4/12/08	What's CS?

comment #12 SiDEWiNDER89 11:30 pm pdt - 4/12/08	well i voted her for GL to her :D and I myself play more 1.6 and wouldnt mind a FAMAS that looked like the Halo BR

comment #13 Bokuho My whining. Reply to it and I'll kill your mother 3:22 am pdt - 4/13/08	I wish to say that the Hello Kitty M4 is gorgeous and I wish to own one. And also, 1.6. Lawl, people playing Source?

comment #14 -:Nighthawk:- Xfire me. (91%) My Steam Community 3:33 am pdt - 4/13/08	Just for the hell of it I went ahead and made a Hello Kitty M4 + Acog replacement for the Aug... I'll post it later this week. It scares me. I'll look into Halo models, but no promises on that front... Microsoft isn't typically very generous with their intellectual property. :)

comment #15 sathanas 7:00 am pdt - 4/13/08	:D awesome. I play CS: S btw. I keep trying to get back into 1.6 but it's too fast these days. I don't mind whether it's an m4 or something else really.

comment #18 Nautilus` omg nationalist 10:18 am pdt - 4/13/08	i never really payed much attention to the SotD, BUT i voted anyway. Good luck!

comment #19 MechMykl myspace.com/mechmykl 6:50 pm pdt - 4/13/08	Good luck to her; Zinch never gave me money so it's cool to see that somebody's getting some.

comment #20 DarkViper311 8:53 pm pdt - 4/13/08	I don't give a good fuck about skins, but I sent her a vote anyways. Best of luck.

comment #22 -:Nighthawk:- Xfire me. (91%) My Steam Community 12:15 am pdt - 4/14/08	sigh where's the love? :P Guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder, eh? Either way, so long as you vote for mine, I don't care who you think is cuter rofl. :) Thanks to everyone for their support so far, it means a lot to me! In other news, watch out for the Hello Kitty M4 coming tomorrow after this scout skin... even if you haven't played CS in a while, you're gonna have to dust it off and give it a try, hehe. :)
