In honor of Festivus and Santatlantean, here's your chance to win the soundtrack thingy advertised on the back of the Camp California manual. It's really not very good music, but it's free and if you have kiddos they might like it.
To enter this one, you must post a high score with screenshot from Santatlantean. The top three scores will get extra entries: three extra for first, two for second, and one for third.
1. Don't enter if you already have it.
2. Ya gotta have 150 posts by the time of the drawing, and they can't mostly be in buy/sell/raffle threads.
3. You promise to re-raffle it if you ever want to get rid of it.
4. It must be listened to at least once, and I mean really listened to while paying attention; no playing it for the kids in the back seat while you zone out or playing it softly in the background while you vacuum.
5. I reserve the right to not include whiners, maroons, and anyone else that pisses me off.
6. A random winner will be selected sometime after the first of the year.
Entrants:
1st - 135,680 - jtucci31
2nd - 12,085 - DragonmasterDan
Wait, there was a soundtrack? WTF? (It's just the Red Book from the game, or is it?)
I don't think I ever noticed the ad for this!
Throw my name in the Hatris.
i am officially requesting entry in to this raffle.

They aren't the game tunes, they're covers of Beach Boys songs meant for kids. It's just a regular jewel case like most music cds; I don't remember if it has the lyrics fold out or not, so you might have to wing it if you want to sing along.
As for entry, no high score screenshot = no entry.

Ah, no song about Byron Bear like on the title screen?
I humbly request entry into your drawing of glorious goods
Awesome raffle. I'm not looking to enter but it looks to be a generous gift.

Necro, don't say I never did you any favors. :P
Ha! I see. Santatlantean pics. Please tell me I'll have time after Xmas to do this. I won't have time before Xmas.
You'll have at least until January 6 (Epiphany) and maybe even longer depending on the level of participation.
I'll be trying for a high score after Christmas as well. Haven't done too well saving Christmas so far. I need to put in some practice because I'm still not too great at Atlantean either.
Great raffle!
Spent some time trying to rack up a high score today. This was only my second run. Ran out of more time to play.

I don't even own Camp California, but if i like the music enough, I'll probably buy it. I like the Beach Boys. Plus it got me to play Santalantean a little more, which is nice. :mrgreen:
With zero other participants, things are looking good for jt. :mrgreen:
I'm terrible at it.

A new challenger appears!
With such underwhelming demand, it's time to close up shop. Here's the outcome of the drawing:
1. Dan
2. JT
3. Dan
4. JT
5. JT
But really, you both win (or lose depending on how you look at it), as BMW has donated a second copy. Thanks to you two for playing and thanks to BMW for offering up another prize. :mrgreen:
I lost with 3 submissions?!?! I demand a recount!!!
But really, thanks BlueBMW! And/or thanks NecroPhile as well for setting up the raffle :)
I still haven't had a chance to play this. Damn.

I'm curious to hear if it has the Camp California intro song which describes the main character as though he is Poochie from the Simpsons. If I recall correctly it's something to the extent of "Byron Bear is a really cool dude, he's a rappin homeboy surfer dude with major attitude. Oh yeah and he's a skateboard hound...."
It just struck me as being hilarious.

Hahaahhahahahahahahaha.
I am still dumbfounded as to why the Beach Boys needed to create an official mascot to market at kids... did the Beach Boys really think that a new, vast sea of opportunities could transform Byron into the next superstar spokesman (a la "California Raisins")?
I know Byron originated with marketers and opportunists—but at some point the band had to approve it, right?

God only knows why they approved this. While it seems like
forever ago, I'm sure someone involved with the Beach Boys must have thought having a mascot would be
Fun,Fun,Fun and thought
wouldn't it be nice to find a way to market to children. It's just a major cash grab,
I get around and know how the business works, and I'm sure if anyone suggested this might be selling out their managers probably told them "
Don't worry baby" this will be a monster hit and everyone will want Byron Bear merchandise. If anyone in the band wanted to be
true to their school of thought and not sell out, their voices clearly weren't heard over the
pet sounds coming from these animal mascots. All that leaves is me 20 years later
in my room while
surfin USA .... based internet sites and making a pun filled post about these crappy mascot characters.
*groan*
Heh, i enjoyed that

I'll bring mine to work next week and scan it in, but can I hold the files ransom for a new TurboDoodle?
and the music does end. I've listened to the whole thing.
And while I wouldn't put it in my car rotation of CDs, it's not THAT terrible. I recognized Nancy Cartwright as one of the voice actors, and I get the sense an uncredited Dan Castlenetta may be involved as one character sounds like a combination of Barney Gumble with a little bit of Homer Simpson mixed in.

Dude, that is WAY MORE INTRIGUING than I thought it would be.
STOP WRINKLING UP THE LYRICS AND ILLUSTRATIONS! I want to make something with all that goodness.

Yes! And yes! I have an extra day off this weekend, maybe I'll try to reshoot/salvage an old episode or two of TurboDoodle (or I may just start again, I had some bad luck with old footage not turning out properly).

Got mine in the mail today, thanks again Necro! :) Sadly I haven't had time to listen to it, but tomorrow i will. I didn't get the lyric sheet like Dan, but that's fine. I already know some Beach Boys tunes.
I've not forgotten about you, este. My copy is sitting next to me here at work, ready for scanning when I've got the time. :mrgreen:

I forgot you mentioned this and immediately heard Simpson voices in this. Not sure if they really are on this cd, I'll have to check, but I thought that was funny.
I also thought the "Byron" character was funny and resembled Poochie. This CD is great!
Scans and ripped tunes sent to esty and nully. :mrgreen:
