Contest Results: The Winterbottom Winner!

And the Pie Goes to...

by Gamervision



As we all found out in The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom, it's not easy to keep a pie away from the titular pie thief. We tasked the Gamervision community with thinking up ways to hide pies from the tophat-wearing, umbrella-carrying buttwit, and you guys delivered wonderfully for the chance to get your own copy of the Xbox Live Arcade game. As always, though, there can only be one winner. Drumroll, please...

As voted by the Gamervision writers, the clear winner is Kiz, with this slightly flawed but still clever scheme:

My idea of the perfect hiding spot...
I break in my local bakery...Do I go for the mixed berry pie? No. I take the apple one. Mr. Winterbottom doesn't like apple.
I take it back to my place and stick it into my toaster oven...Why? If I left it on the windowsill, it would attract flies and bumblebees; and if I left it in the main oven it would be too obvious, besides there's no little see through window on my toaster oven.

I would then return back to the bakery and purchase a decoy... (Here's where it gets good). There's no fruit filling in my decoy pie, so I would leave it out on my kitchen table with a knife, fork and a dessert plate. Mr. Winterbottom will take the bait because the pie is like his crack... he can't help himself. When he bites into the pie he'll find a note; it will read: "I have thirty-seven apple pies in Madagascar, meet me there and they're yours."

But I don't board the plane to Madagascar, I go to Morocco. As I'm carrying my sack full of lies through the airport, I'm stopped by customs. They confiscate my goods.

I return home and the doorbell rings. It's a telegram from Mr. Winterbottom. He informs me that he is in Madagascar, waiting for the "stuff". I don't reply. Instead I return to my small toaster oven and open it. There's nothing there.

My brother appears from around he corner licking his fingers and hands me the empty tray.

At least I kept it safe from Mr.Winterbottom.

Good thinking, Kiz, and congratulations! You will be receiving an email later today with your download code for The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom. As for everyone else, keep your thinking hats on, because more contests are coming! Stay tuned to Gamervision for more chances to win free stuff.
