The Judging Panel
 
Ok, good people. We can see this is getting hot and steamy as we reach the business end of this awesome MOVEMBER competition and that's just the way we like it!

Here is the deal WRT judging the winner: There will be a panel of 6 judges.

On the panel the public vote counts as one person.  The other 5 judges are Olivia Jones (ECR), Spider Murphy & Lonnie Tiegs (Safari Surf Co), Gary Shotland JR (Corona), Lloyd Stocks (vida e) and theBOMBsurf.

We will rate in descending order our top 3 entries and give a brief write up of why we think they're cool. A win on each judges panel gets you 10pts, 2nd gets you 5pts and 3rd gets you 1 point. We then tally the points and announce the winner. We'll do this this weekend and announce the winner on Monday 30th MOVEMBER. Good luck to you all!

  How the Judges voted:

Gary:

1.    Mogwai & Crew – hahaha too funny, sad thing is, this is how these guys roll every other month of the year!! Big ups to anyone who rocks out a pair of sexy red apple catchers with a porno muzzie!!

2.    Jacques Coetzee – this guy has whole Movember package down to a fine art - steam & cheese!!

3.    Mo Bro – not your typical entry but super creative & thinking outside box… Worth a mention for the effort.

O.J

1. This has to go to Wes Cruikshanks. It is just the right kind of “mo”. He could get away with it at most social functions, would probably still come right with chicks but it would still catch bits of egg sandwich if he chowed one.
 
2.  “Mogwai and team” - those lifesavers are pure steam! How can you go wrong wearing a red speedo and 1 x sleazy snor they make town locals proud... brings a tear to my eye.
 
3. This was a tough one because I wanted to choose the most porno and there are too many good contenders but I would have to say The Dirty Uncle had the edge with the tight pant – he’s the heat!

Spider and Lonnie

1.       Rod Davey – “Well-shaped”  (should try applying this talent to his boards)

2.      Llewellyn Whitaker – “Well trained” (though the rails are out a little)

3.      Mo Bru -  “Artistic Style” (An idea clearly before it’s time)


theBOMBsurf crew

1. The Dirty Uncle. Not only a great Mo, but great presentation and high porn factor.

2. Wes Mutton Cruickshanks. Those chops are outrageous bru.

3. Kelly Cestari. We saw his puny little Mo in early Movember and laughed at him. Now he's sporting a proper 'tache that even his mom will disown him for. Respect.

Lloyd

Couldn't call a winner as there were so many awesome Mo's! Everyone gets 10 points!

Public Vote

At time of the Comp closing:

1.  Wes:  16622 votes
2.  Bryan:  14019 votes
3.  Tim;  3759 votes


So Final Placings are as follows:

1st place and Winner of the Movember Madness Competition: 


Wes Cruikshanks

2nd

The Dirty uncle

3rd

Mogwai and crew

Brad on 25 November 2009
Come on Molly, stop dreaming, bryan's tache is so gay, if u wanna see a real tache just feast your eyes on the dirty uncle and Jacques Coetzee(same person).

I think everyone should just reallise they cant compete against a real tache.
Zumsta on 25 November 2009
Wezlington! Go you good thing GO!
Deon on 25 November 2009
yeah
I must say
respect to the dirty uncle

I mean he's almost showing double tache in that photi,
what with his nutsac just about popping out

good skills
TheVoice on 25 November 2009
Hehe, loving the cheating guy with the 10 000 votes, good use of mass form submission.
TheVoice on 25 November 2009
But what I really like is how damaging it is for the brands participating in the rigged competition, its going to be really funny when it gets out. Lol.
MOlly on 25 November 2009
It's called a great campaign! :-)
most guys are doing it, ours is just going really well right now!

I'll admit that the dirty uncle does have an impressive tache, but it's not my style ;-)



shaun on 25 November 2009
There are some great tashes on this page!
good luck to the winner!
shaun on 25 November 2009
Its for a great cause, and Im gonna keep mine on till end Nov
all in support of Prostate cancer! lets get out there and promote it, not a nice desease!
shaun on 25 November 2009
sorry..disease!
Deon on 25 November 2009
I hear you shaun
nice

I gonna keep mine too (even tho its decreased my sex life by 50% - so thats like once every six months now)
shaun on 25 November 2009
haha!
bryan on 25 November 2009
oh yeah! the tache is a way of life, bru. tom selleck, chuck norris.. even the hoff sported a great snake's eyebrow back in the day. mario brothers, frank zappa, hulk hogan, barry white, freddie mercury, einstein.. just to name a few greats.
but magnum p.i. is gotta be an all time favourite (and he scored plenty, Deon so don't stress hahaha
Wez on 25 November 2009
woah! if votes could convert to cash we'd make mad moola for the cause. much respect
Zumsta on 25 November 2009
@TheVoice What's mass form submission?
Zumsta on 25 November 2009
@TheVoice What's mass form submission?
Stinkee on 25 November 2009
Wez all the way!!! What mass submission are these peeps referring to? It's all about campaigning - how do you think a president wins an election? The more people that vote, the more awarness is gained for this good cause! Go WEZ!!!!
AJ. on 25 November 2009
voting because you guys keep me laughing on the way to work in the morning. GO BREAKFAST BUNCH!!!!
MC on 25 November 2009
Hell talk about the compo being rigged. What the hell all of a sudden one can only vote once... what about all the 1000's of votes already cast????????
Wez on 26 November 2009
A.J you da man!

Mass respect to all the dudes who have nurtured a respectable tash, and to the girls who waxed their pits and stuck it to their lips.
tj on 26 November 2009
rigged, rigged, rigged... I reckon the result of the Movember comp was decided in Mocktober already...
bryan on 26 November 2009
mocktober.. haha. good one.
not sure about being rigged, dudes. you can vote for as many mo's as you like, as often as you can. and i can tell you that sublimal advertising works! i'm having some weird-as dreams involving corona, vida and a safari surfboard... and a strange-looking crew of scary (and gay) taches!
Deon on 26 November 2009
are you ous also gonna carry the Movember over into Decembeard?
bryan on 26 November 2009
oh yeah- full monty! nice
Brad on 26 November 2009
U should only be allowed to vote for someone or in other peoples cases THEMSELVES once, this is bull that people spend all day voting for themselves, they should be disqualified.
Zumsta on 26 November 2009
I'm not sure you can get as much 10 000 votes just by voting for yourself, all for a board, coffee & beer. And if you've been following the hype began in the 100's.
Brad on 26 November 2009
Its amazing that a person can jump 8000 votes in 4 hours wake up Zumsta........something has to be going, I know its hard but try use your head and think about it. People will do anything for something free.
bryan allott on 26 November 2009
not just _any_ board, coffee and beer. i mean, we're talking about vida e caffe. seriously the best cuppa high altitude estrela bean you can get. and then corona: una cerveza deliciosa! just on their own, it's enough to go moggy for... but throw in a board, nay, a spider, to boot and ohmy.... yip- i voted for myself a couple of times 'cos i can. and i know my mates who love me did too- all goood. (but i'm still way behind). besides they don't actually say (in as many words) that s/he with the most votes _will_ definitely win or that you may not vote for yourself or others more than once. all that's just implied/interpretation... ?
JMc on 26 November 2009
OK fellas I can see this is getting hot and steamy as we reach the business end of this awesome MOVEMBER and that's just the way we like it!

Zumsta on 26 November 2009
Looks fair to me. Now we wait. Other than for the cause it was fun getting mates from around the world to pull in and vote for some full-on facial fuzz... may the the best 'tache win.
Justin on 26 November 2009
What's up with this not even end of November and okes have got so many votes. I was keen to enter, have been growing and grooming my tache diligently for the last few weeks and was going to submit at end of November. Thinking that the rules were start growing it at the beginning of November and see what it looks like at the end. Now I don't have a hope in hell. A whole month's none action. Maybe next year I'll start growing in October so i can enter. Or only allow voting for a limited period after November? Otherwise awesome laughs and competition for a great cause
JMc on 26 November 2009
Justin, the public vote only counts for 1/6 of the total. If you are rocking a BAD BOY then send the pic, you still have a good chance if you impress the other judges.
Deon on 26 November 2009
I hear you Justin
there were a lot of Octobeards that suddenly became Movembers

the official Movember is all about starting it on the 1st:
http://za.movember.com/

John,
glad some sense has prevailed with the voting
(not that I had much chance either way, but its all good)
bryan on 26 November 2009
yip- dig the voting sense- perfectly fair.
and yip- equally rocking getting all the mates excited and showing off my mo on the net; rocking up the votes. good vibes.
Wez on 26 November 2009
Totally. Good Cause. Good Mo's. Good times.
Wez on 27 November 2009
It seems a lot of peeps are missing out on the fun side of mo'vember. It's all about rockin a tach and spreading the awareness.

Irie in the tach department
deon on 27 November 2009
yeah
the tache certainly raises awareness

I've had some chicks checking me out and I'm thinkin"oh yes.......still got it........D...you're the man.."
then I realise they lookin at the tache and they prob think I'm a kiddy fiddler

its all good

and my bosses dunno what to do either - its freakin em out
but I'm like " its for cancer awareness" and they feel all skaam
dig it
Mo master on 29 November 2009
Jacques, the dirty uncle all the way!!!!! His the real thing

Well done to all the Mo'Madmen!!! Well done to The Bomb Surf, you guys run the best surf page I have ever seen. And thanks for hosting this great cause. I know I got my balls cradled...

The surfboards are stacked and waiting next to our packed bags. I'm doodling on the guitar, John is sipping a cold Laurentina. The chick who's giving us a lift to the border said she'd be here in 5 minutes. That was 2 hours ago. It gives us plenty of time to reflect on the craziness of the last month, the last week, the last few days. I say crazy, but I mean it in the best sense of the word. Creat... <more>
