Hey! This contest isn't fair!

I've been asked to compete in a fundraising contest for Camp Quest. But look what they did to me!

Five awesome atheist bloggers are competing to see who can raise the most money to support Camp Quest!

Since one of those bloggers is the indomitable PZ Myers of Pharyngula, we have made two teams in order to make this competition more fair.

Team 1: Greta Christina of Greta Christina's Blog, Hemant Mehta of Friendly Atheist, Jen McCreight of Blag Hag, and JT Eberhard of Zerowing21.

Team 2: PZ Myers of Pharyngula.

The first team to raise $5,000 for Camp Quest, or the team that has raised the most by June 1, 2011 will win!

What will the winning team receive? Bragging rights. Pure and simple.

All contestants and contributors receive: the knowledge that they have supported a fantastic program for freethinking families and their children.

Camp Quest is a fabulous program to give kids a fun and educational experience without the taint of religion. They should be encouraged and supported, but you know what this means…I must also crush the competition. Donate to help the kids, but also do it via my little widget. If you don't, you're probably also one of those wimps who roots for the faces rather than the heels in pro wrestling.


I have already goaded my feeble opponents into responding. Do they even realize that if they were to win (which is inconceivable), they'd have to split the bragging rights four ways? My question is, who would get the "buh?", who gets the "err...", who gets the "Aaaaa!", and who gets the "gah?"

As you know, we're having a little contest to raise money for Camp Quest, and we've been competing to see who can raise the most money for a good cause. It's me standing alone against the team of Hemant Mehta, Jen McCreight, JT Eberhard , Digital Cuttlefish, Sikivu Hutchinson, Adam Lee, The…
The gentleman squid gazes at you with an appraising eye. Do you have what it takes to stand up for the right and the truth and a civilized way of life, or do you side with the barbarian rabble? Sadly, I must report that Greta Christina, Hemant Mehta, Jen McCreight, and JT Eberhard have…
In the last episode of our competition to raise money for Camp Quest, I had elegantly and cunningly turned the tables on Team Beat PZ: after trouncing them thoroughly in all fundraising efforts, I had maneuvered them into desperately offering all kinds of humiliating forfeits if they should win the…
