Andy has lovingly created a character named West Country Doctor, a new incarnation of The Doctor. He has requested art of the character, in all of his glory. Check out the Crapshots for some laughs and good references.

We have to say though, this is no traditional creative challenge, we have no physical prize for you this time, but if you submit some you a) get Andy’s love and admiration and b) a chance to have a say on what Andy does. Want to hear him sing a specific song as the West Country Doctor? Want to hear a Doctor Who speech with him in character? You’ll get your chance to tell him what to do!

You have until 9:00am PST to get those submissions in!

Please send your submissions to contest@desertbus.org with the subject line “West Country Doctor”. Include your submission as a photo attachment in JPG, PNG, or GIF format. 

Please be sure to also include the screen name you’d like us
to use on air should your submission win.

Next we have a selection of cool board games for you to try your hand at! In this lot you’ll find a copy of Krosmaster Area, a copy of Courtier; and a copy of Lost Temple. Donate $5.42 or multiples thereof until 7:15am PST for your chance to win!

Maddie blows the room away with a performance of Defying Gravity, from Wicked:

Andy is an actor and writer living in Vancouver. He has been a DB semi-regular since the very first Desert Bus For Hope back in 2007. Despite this, he has somehow managed to avoid shouldering any real responsibility concerning the fundraiser, and would appreciate it if you didn’t mention it to the event organizers. He’s got a good thing going; don’t bus it up for him.

Congratulations to IllustratedJai, the winner of Ashton and Johnny’s Horizon Zero Dawn challenge.

Special shoutouts to our honorable mentions, Torill, MaggieoftheNora and Space Potato. Find the rest of the entries past the break!

We sent an e-mail off to Cards Against Humanity to see if they’d like to send us a thing for Desert Bus this year.

The reply we got back boiled down to “Yeah sure here’s almost everything we have that exists”

So that’s what is up for grabs!

Any donations of $5.19 or multiples thereof until 9:15 PM PST will enter you for a chance to win. You will also get the DB DOC Kickstarter exclusive Desert Bus Pack.
