Editing

We have extended the deadline for submissions until 11:55am due to the common problem between most teams of not being able to upload all of their content fast enough. We weren't anticipating this many gigabytes of debauchery per team. If teams are still having problems please contact Faceless Invasion to arrange a DVD drop off instead.

Additional Items

Some of you didn't get the email, so i am putting this up on the website:

1. Create your own Team Edition drinking game. Include instructions and some shots of the game in action. The crazier and more elaborate it is, the better
100-1000
2. Convince as many people as you can, at a bar, to take a shot of your team's favourite booze at once
100-500 (500 points would require about 75 people)
3. Consume as many hot-dogs as you can in 2 minutes (the pro's dip the buns in water first). One person.
3 hot dogs and under = 0 points
4 = 600
5 = 1200
6 = 2400
4. Sink a half-court basketball shot
400
5. Chase a shot of whiskey with a shot of semen. Or vice versa.
1400-2200
6. Hold a "Cowboy, Indian, Bear" Competition (it's the new rock paper scissors)
200-400
7. Go backstage at a concert
200-1000 (mostly depending on the band)
8. Wax yourself completely hairless from the neck down
1500-3000 (mostly depending on how much body hair you had to start)
9. Create a new way of taking a tequila shot that is way better than the old salt-lime-tequila combo
50-?
10. Rock the house at a karaoke bar
250-750

BYOM

There are still enough masks left to sign up two more teams. If, however, you already have a mexican wrestling mask you can sign up using the BYOM option. Just fill out the registration form and hit the new Buy BYOM option and you will only have to pay a mere $7 to sign up. No phantom of the opera shit. No Werewolf masks. It has to be a mexican wrestling mask or it does not qualify. Masks are available at Bang-On on St Laurent or St. Catherines.

Wired Article

Regina Lynn, Wired.com's resident sex columnist, wrote a great article about Faceless Invasion. You can check it out

here

or just go to wired.com. It's on the home page right now. Big thanks to all the participants who agreed to be interviewed for the article. Reading it you might think that the entire event was about sex, but that's only one angle. The naughty stuff only represents about 1/4 of the list, so participants still have to bring their A-Game in every category.

True Faceless Stories

Nick asked me if he could use my famous three-floor funnel to reshoot a scene for the Faceless promo video. Now I had a quiet evening lined up that I wasn't eager to sacrifice, but I agreed. Well he came over and I don't know whether the fates conspired or what, but before I knew it I was on my knees funneling 35 feet of old Milwaukee while my roommates fought over who was next. I guess you might say things escalated quickly. One of my girls, an amateur funneler, didn't know how to work the funnel, and so I told her to open her throat as though she were sucking a dick. A sparkle in her eye told me she knew exactly what I was talking about. That girl wrapped her lips around that 35 foot hose and sucked three floors of beer out of it like a seasoned pro. I don't know what to say except that it was magical. Turns out, we all got pretty fucked, and my lame night turned into an impromptu gongshow. If things get this out of hand just shooting the promo video, I don't know what kind of shit is going to go down on the day of the event. March 31, watch out.

The Deadline Has Passed: Now What?

Thanks to all of you who have registered. We currently have 60 people signed up. Those of you who received a number with their registration confirmation email, do not worry that there are that few people signed up. We just switched registration systems yesterday.

What if you weren't part of the lucky bunch who have already registered? Lucky for you, we are buying an extra 20 masks so you can still register until we run out. After that, we are going to switch to a BYOM (Bring Your Own Mask) system. The BYOM system is less desirable for both sides, but that is the price of procrastination.

Stupid Facebook

I think Facebook is great. They, however, do not feel the same way about Faceless Invasion. They disabled the Faceless Invasion account, I am still waiting for a reason why. In the meantime, feel free to email questions@facelessinvasion.com with any questions you may have or hit the Phone Hotline a few blog posts down.

QR Codes

Faceless Invasion just found out about QR codes, and we are pretty pumped. They are barcodes that can be scanned by camera phones. People can download software onto their phone from

here

or

here

and then when they take a picture of the barcode they are given information or directed to a website. There will probably be a few of these codes scattered around town for Faceless Invasion, so savvy teams should figure out how to take advantage of them. Once the software is on your phone you just have to look at the code and the judges will receive a confirmation SMS message from your number. God bless the Japanese and their crazy technologies. Here is what a QR code looks like. Email us with the english translation and your team gets 100 points.

More Examples

People keep emailing Faceless Invasion for more examples from the list. Here are four more to keep you guys happy:

1. Use the key taped to the underside of the dumpster behind Pizza Du Parc to open locker 432 in the McGill Music Building. Submit the contents at the end of the day. (100-600 points)

2. Masturbate with a banana (500-800 points)

3. Answer a phone call at 5:00pm at the number 514-287-2880 (400 points)

4. Write and perform a sketch comedy scene about dinosaurs (200-1000)

For all of you who are a little scared by #2: just remember that there are 200 items on the list - so you can choose how you want to win this event. Also, bananas are an excellent source of potassium and orgasm.

True Faceless Stories: The Beer Bong

Faceless Invasion had a team of seven people construct a forty foot beer bong at a townhouse downtown. It consisted of thirty feet of tubing with two ten foot connections at the bottom. It took 6 teammates to hold the massive bong ranging from the bottom deck to the roof top balcony, and the final teammate to hold the camera. In twenty minutes, the team polished off 15 beers and a micky of stoli's vodka that happend to sneak itself in there...It was the first assignment Faceless had us do, and it only got better from there!

True Faceless Stories: The Sticker Incident

Some of you may have noticed the Faceless Invasion stickers at McGIll, UdeM, the Montreal Metro System, Concordia, and randomly around downtown Montreal. I thought I'd share a funny story about my part in that. The Porter at the McConnell Engineering building at McGill caught me putting a sticker on the front door. He grabbed me by the neck and dragged me to his office where he gave me a Full Metal Jacket-esque hate speach for 10 minutes while we waited for Security to come. The guy's wife must have been cheating on him or something. He told me that if he wasn't working he would have taken me out back and thrown me into a dumpster, then spat in my face and called me a pig. Seriously. I knew the guy was a joke after about the first 30 seconds, so I just apologized nicely (which he deserved) and laughed for the rest of the time (which he also deserved but may have contributed to his nervous breakdown). McGill Security was very nice and sorted everything out in the end. I didn't even put up all of the stickers in the building, they have no idea how many I was responsible for. That's the power of an anonymous crowd.

SNL: Girls Gone Wild

This is why everyone has to wear mexican wrestling masks. It's also hilarious. I wish the world was filled with millions of Will Farrells.

Faceless Invasion In The News

Check out what some people have been saying about Faceless Invasion

"Scavenger hunters in Mexican wrestling masks will descend on downtown Montreal in the first-ever Faceless Invasion competition on March 31.

Doing away with normal scavenger hunt items like "bus ticket", "chewed gum" and "airplane jet engine," the Faceless contest plans to take the tradition to a level it has never been before.

And it involves lots of nudity.

Wearing Mexican wrestling masks.

Each team will have to videotape their exploits as they embark on tasks in six categories: problem solving, engineering, eating/drinking, body modification and, ahem, sex.

Though definitely not a contest for the prude, future politicians can relax as they take on a completely different persona in the Mexican wrestling match to keep mummy, daddy and future constituents out of the loop.

The list of tasks is 200 items long and ranges from digging up a buried inflatable sheep, mud wrestling and running down St. Catherine street in the light of day - all without taking off the mask and all of which might be difficult in the chilly Montreal weather.

St. Catherine street is the shopping and restaurants center in downtown Montreal, so be wary when booking that weekend getaway - you may get more scenery that you'd hoped.

The winner will get $500 in cash for their efforts."

Another post at Skirmisher has this to say:

"On March 31, hundreds of naked college students wearing nothing but Mexican wrestling masks will take part in Faceless Invasion, which is “like a scavenger hunt - on crack. Each team will be tested on their intelligence, creativity, guts, and lack of shame. Teams will be asked to criss-cross the city executing a series of tasks and collecting items, recording each step of the way on video and in photos. All team members will be guaranteed anonymity by wearing a mexican wrestling mask for all of their time on video.” Expect this otherwise quaint Canadian city to turn wilder than a wild naked turkey with all those frat boys and girls in a goose chase that smells of Amazing Race, only with hundreds of Nacho Libres and lots of distracting tits."
