The entries are in. All have been carefully evaluated based on a laundry-list of criteria. As far as you know, we didn’t just dump all the names in a hat and draw one at random.

First, if you don’t remember the contest, here is the original post. In case it wasn’t clear, the player in the original post picked one of 7 versions of the commercial at random and played it. (as does the one below)

So, the 5 runners up are

The runners up each get a free copy of Zend Studio.

  1. Matthew Turland – ‘our best Unconference yet’!
  2. Juliette Reinders Folmer – ‘PHP Women! (phpwomen.org)’
  3. Gary Martellino – ‘the “framework” to success’
  4. Quoc Bao – ‘PHP!’
  5. Luiz Antonio – ‘code & coffee’

And the Winner is…

Now for our grand prize winner, a free ticket to ZendCon ’07.

  • Chris McKinney – ‘a shiny badge with your name on it!’

Congratulations to all of our winners and thank you to everyone who sent in a contribution. I will be contacting the winners shortly with instructions on how to claim your prize.

About Cal Evans

Many moons ago, at the tender age of 14, Cal touched his first computer. (We're using the term "computer" loosely here, it was a TRS-80 Model 1) Since then his life has never been the same. He graduated from TRS-80s to Commodores and eventually to IBM PC's. For the past 10 years Cal has worked with PHP and MySQL on Linux OSX, and when necessary, Windows. He has built on a variety of projects ranging in size from simple web pages to multi-million dollar web applications. When not banging his head on his monitor, attempting a blood sacrifice to get a particular piece of code working, he enjoys building and managing development teams using his widely imitated but never patented management style of "management by wandering around". Cal is currently based in Nashville, TN and is gainfully unemployed as the Chief Marketing Officer of Blue Parabola, LLC. Cal is happily married to wife 1.28, the lovely and talented Kathy. Together they have 2 kids who were both bright enough not to pursue a career in IT. Cal blogs at http://blog.calevans.com and is the founder and host of Day Camp 4 Developers
