Stupid idea, but it would certenly be fun to create a game with Delphi Man and Dr Deadline!!

Here you can find them. I think they are copyrighted by Borland.

:lol: I remember these guys. :P

What an ...interesting... ad campaign. ;)

I shouldn't talk though, I out of humour sent in for one of those inflatable dollies and got two for being one ofthe first 100 or something like that. :D

Hmm... maybe I could offer them as an award for something on PGD. I was going to put them up for prizes for the '2006 PGD Annual', but came up with better ideas eventually.

What do you guys think? Whats a worthy contest to earn the ownership of the amazing Delphi Man and his arch nemesis Dr. Deadline? :)

Why not have a contest for a game featureing the two characters and use them as prizes :)

I'd love to get my hands on those action figures and if a contest is what it takes im in! :twisted:

.. just make it something that a student with a full-time job can participate in. :wink:

Maybe make it a timed contest, 2 hours to make the app xyz (spec given just before contest starts). This way we will show off his 1337 RAD knowledge. (maybe make it a series of contest, testing different topics, giving away many dolls)

Since this tread idea apparently died I decided to take the matter to my own hands! :twisted:

And after hours of planning, designing, printing, measuring, cutting, gluing...
