So we need to give this stuff away.
However, it's a single copy of a game, and while pretty great, I think I want to do something quick and simple. So, I'm going to ask something odd, and say the criteria of the contest is to be an example of awesome Shacker. Now, I realize that's an abstract concept, but say stuff like, ThomW's lol script, or thekidd's TF2 guide, or matto's steak tips, or voodooraze's rapid production of dinosaurs on the moon, or Remo's songs or something else from the plethora of other things you might have missed looking at. Those are all awesome.
So I ask you to produce new awesome.
It has to be created as of today, because if we look back, then there's just too much great stuff to account for. So tell a good story. Make a cool piece of art. Explain something interesting. Release that project you've been sitting on. I don't know, it doesn't have to be the biggest investment because this is just going to run in the comments till the ER on Sunday. As for who wins, I'll leave that to you guys. If you like something someone has done, then say something in reply and we'll tally up the votes. Let me know if there are further questions.

Writin' code in the middle of the night
Monitor the only source of light
Broke the build; the compiler is creaking
Level three could use a little tweaking
So behind that I couldn't even sleep
On a milestone that we couldn't keep
Paychecks relying on the veep
Saying our code is good enough to keep
It seems no one can help me now
I'm in too deep
There's no way out
It's time for me to update my resume
CHORUS
Runaway game, never gonna ship
Our schedule is really gonne slip
Seems like we should be getting somewhere
They pulled the game design out of air
Can you help me remember how to smile
While I try to make this stupid texture tile?
How on earth did I get so jaded
Why did my game just get AO-rated?
I can code what no one else can code
But my pay grade is three times too low
MobyGames is waiting for my name
If I ever ship this runaway game
Now the game is cut and dry
Laid me off, I'm gonna die
Somehow it just didn't seem worth it
CHORUS
Gonna ship it, it's a runaway game
Schedule is causing me some pain
Our PM has gone a bit insane
But our milestone'll be late again
Runaway game never gonna ship
Runaway game's always gonna slip
Runaway game, turnin' in my hat
Runaway cause life is more than that...
