Well, you have to wait a bit longer... Due to my inability to pay for shipping at this time I'm going to extend the deadline by two weeks while I mug little old ladies for cash.
I will move the deadline to Jan 12th 2008 12:59PM GMT giving you a little over 2 weeks to fine tune your entries and time for me to raise funds. Keep in mind that multiple entries are allowed, so if you have already submitted an entry and would like to expand on the idea you can submit another version and we will look at them both while judging.
Some tips for success:
-Look at the scoring system and see if you overlooked any criteria
-Be creative, remember that the design only needs to be feasible and not necessarily easy to build or have to survive the test of time (i.e. making a waterfall usually isn't a great idea for watercooling because of contaminants, but in this case we won't care about long term effects nearly as much as a bitchin' flow system)
-A big part of the score is creative implementation of the watercooling system. There are lots of ways you could use that water in your theme.
-keep in mind that cost of materials is not a concern in this design, so if you want to build a warthog out of platinum knock yourself out.
-even though not everyone can use sketchup or Cinema 4D, quality of presentation can really help your score so if you aren't a graphics wizard break out the colored pencils and nail it.

PM me with any questions.

Lol, no worries, bombs away!prepare to be carpet bombed with entriys!
I apologize for not alerting you sooner but I wasn't aware that it would be necessary until the other day and I didn't want to make the decision without hearing the opinions of the other staff members. So I posted the question for staff to chime in on (whether to extend the deadline, or just make the winner wait for the goodies longer), the consensus was to move the deadline.

Woot, this saves me an all nighter that i was going to have to pull.. (which ill probably put off till the last day again)
Honestly I don't see how I can do anything particularly fancy with the watercooling system on my case design. Will I ultra-fail the contest if I don't do something creative there?
Don't get me wrong though, I put everything in well-thought-out positions.
Thanks,
