Hey ECFers! We want to show our love and appreciation to everyone for letting us be part of your community and sticking with us.

I have closed our last thread as it got to 2000 posts, well here is a new contest =)

For the month of August, we want to give away a $20 gift certificate via special coupon code every Sunday at 11PM EST to one winner! The gift certificate is valid for anything on the site, but it cannot be retroactively applied to previously purchased items. We will also continue giving away a starter kit of your choice every 15th of the month.

After the month of August is over, I am going to close this thread and start a new one for September. Perhaps it will be the same game, or maybe it will be a new one!

Our custom starter kits for reference
The gift certificate never expires, it is redeemable forever.
This game involves no questions, but after so many contest with questions, if you feel the need to pose one, go ahead!

Here are the new rules:


  1. You can post as many times as you want but only two posts per day will be counted.
  2. Every Sunday at 11PM EST a winner will be chosen and announced in the thread from last week's entries using Random.org.
  3. There will be a weekly theme revolving around one particular subject. I will introduce a new weekly theme after each winner is announced, each Sunday night!
  4. The more posts you make during the week, the greater your chances of winning!
  5. Your entries will consist of uploading a photo to the thread or talking about the weekly theme in any way at all. Personal experiences are welcome. Photographs can be used if they generally follow the weekly theme and can be as abstract or literal as the poster chooses. The idea is to have fun and get visually or verbally creative!
  6. Please make sure in your daily posts that you indicate the theme, so that anyone that has not yet posted can easily join in.
  7. Entries for the starter kit will be chosen from posts starting a week before the 15th. No special entries are required, just post as you normally would and we will also choose the winner using Random.org.
  8. Most importantly, have a blast!


We are currently only shipping to US, US military addresses and US Territories.

For those of you with mobile devices, our site is at Origin Vape

Hello, Origin!
I'm new to this contest, so I went to check out your site and it was really nice! Great selection and excellent presentation. I'm impressed.

Also, I'm a cat lover so your contest theme was appreciated.

Here's one of my favorites:

This one is actually a vintage analog synthesizer by Octave, called 'The Cat'. When I took an electronic music class in 1983, the main teaching tool used was an ARP 2600, a huge modular synth which, unfortunately, broke down in the middle of the semester. The teacher brought in his Cat as a replacement. It was perfect for the task because it was a streamlined and simple layout, and great for helping newbies understand the basics of synthesis.

Thanks for the contest!

Cats Rules Of Life

Although cats are the best and most wonderful creatures on this planet, they are quite bizzare... After Conspiring with the Cats Association for Taking over Earth (CATE), I have managed to steal some Top Secret information about the mysterious the guardians of the underworld. This is their rules of life (that every cat MUST stick to) in order to take over the world! But how these rules will help to achieve their objectives still remains a total mystery to humans.

BATHROOMS:
Always accompany guests to the bathroom. It is not necessary to do anything. Just sit and stare but occasionally rub their legs.

DOORS:
Do not allow any closed doors in any room. To get door open, stand looking sad at the humans. Once door is opened, it is not necessary to use it. After you have ordered an "outside" door opened, stand halfway in and out and think about several things. This is particularly important during very cold weather, rain, snow, or mosquito season.

CHAIRS AND RUGS:
If you have to throw up, get to a chair quickly. If you cannot manage in time, get to an Oriental rug. If there is no Oriental rug, shag is good. When throwing up on the carpet, make sure you back up so it is as long as a humans bare foot or expensive clothing.

HAMPERING:
If one of your humans is engaged in some activity and the other is idle, stay with the busy one. This is called "helping," otherwise known as "hampering." Following are the rules for "hampering:"

When supervising cooking, sit just behind the left heel of the cook. You cannot be seen and thereby stand a better chance of being stepped on and then picked up and comforted.
For book readers, get in close under the chin, between eyes and book, unless you can lie across the book itself.
For paperwork, lie on the work in the most appropriate manner so as to obscure as much of the work as possible or at least. Pretend to doze, but every so often reach out and slap the pencil or pen. Bite when you're moved on.
When a human is holding the newspaper in front of him/her, be sure to jump on the back of the paper. Humans love to jump.
MOST IMPORTANT When human is working at computer, jump up on desk, walk across keyboard and write a short story. Bat at mouse pointer on screen as if it were real. Then lay in human's lap across arms, hampering typing in progress.

WALKING:
As often as possible, dart quickly and as close as possible in front of the human, especially: on stairs, when they have something in their arms, in the dark, and when they first get up in the morning. This will help their co-ordination skills.

BEDTIME:
Always sleep on the human at night so he/she cannot move around. Even better- lie on his or hers face, making sure your .... is right on their nose. When she is wearing an expensive silk nightie, don't forget to paw it. This will create lovely patterns!

LITTER BOX:
When using the litter box, be sure to kick as much litter out of the box as possible. Humans love the feel of kitty litter between their toes. The smell is also very attractive.

HIDING:
Every now and then, hide in a place where the humans cannot find you for a few days. This will cause the humans to panic (which they love) thinking that you have run away or are lost. Once you do come out, the humans will cover you with love and kisses and you will probably get a treat.

SLEEPING:
In order to have enough energy for playing, a cat must get plenty of sleep (at least 16 hours per day). It is generally not difficult to find a comfortable place to curl up. Any place a human likes to sit is good, especially if it contrasts with your fur color.
If it's in a sunbeam or near a heating duct or radiator, so much the better. Of course, good places also exist outdoors, but have the disadvantages of being seasonal and dependent on current and previous weather conditions such as rain. Open windows are a good compromise.

HUMANS:
Humans have three primary functions: to feed us, to play with and give attention to us, and to clean the litter box. It is important to maintain one's Dignity when around humans so that they will not forget who is the master of the house. Humans need to know basic rules. They can be taught if you start early and are consistent. You will then have a smooth-running household.

FOOD:
In order to get the energy to sleep, play, and hamper, a cat must eat. Eating, however, is only half the fun. The other half is getting the food. Cats have two ways to obtain food: convincing a human you are starving to death and must be fed NOW; and hunting for it oneself. The following are guidelines for getting fed.

When the humans are eating, make sure you leave the tip of your tail in their dishes when they are not looking.

Never eat food from your own bowl if you can steal some from the table.

Never drink from your own water bowl if a human's glass is full enough to drink from.

Should you catch something of your own outside, it is only polite to attempt to get to know it. Be insistent -- your food will usually not be so polite and try to leave.

Table scraps are delicacies with which the humans are unfortunately unwilling to readily part. It is beneath the Dignity of a cat to beg outright for food as lower forms of life such as dogs will, but several techniques exist for ensuring that the humans don't forget you exist. These include, but are not limited to: jumping onto the lap of the "softest" human and purring loudly; lying down in the doorway between the dining room and the kitchen, the Direct Stare, and twining around people's legs as they sit and eat while meowing plaintively.
