Did you watch? No? Ok, well here are the rules or those who prefer the written word:
- Send us a video of your best prank! The prank must use electronics (though not necessarily from SparkFun). Send an email with a YouTube or Vimeo link of your prank to AprilFools@sparkfun.com
- We will accept entries until 11:59 p.m. MT on March 31st, 2014.
- The next day (April Fool's Day) we will post the top three pranks on our website - the winners will get $300 in SparkFun credit for first place, $200 in SparkFun credit for second place and $100 in SparkFun credit for third.
- You can submit an old prank project if you want, but keep in mind points will be awarded for creativity, prank effectiveness (did you get 'em good?!) and your use of electronics.
But wait - there's more!
Don't have time to build a prank in the next week? No problem! Submit your idea for a great electronics based prank in the comments below. We'll choose one winner, and after April Fool's day passes, we'll build your prank idea and then film it in action at SparkFun HQ. We'll also send you a $50 SparkFun credit! We'll accept entries for this part of the contest until 11:59 p.m. MT on March 31st, 2014 as well.
Good luck - we can't wait to see your pranks!
