We want you to come up with a tagline for the V48HOURS campaign this year.

The three best taglines will be used on our flyers/postcards + the three winners will also have their registration refunded. Use black helvetica as the font.
It's practically impossible to beat the brilliant tagline on the one below but give it a go. Enter as many times as you want. Deadline is March 18

YOU GOT SOME FAST FINGERS THERE!

Okay we have had been overwhelmed with the amount of teams that registered at 10am. Vodafone were refunding the first 5 teams and it looks like we had around 40 teams in the first minute or so!
Wow. A huge thanks to all the teams. We love your enthusiasm and desire for a refund.
Congratulations to the fastest fingers in New Zealand. Here were the first five teams. A couple of teams didn't make payment but unfortunately those were the rules. It really came down to a good dose of speed and luck.
First : 400 Stinkin Feet : 10:00:58
Second : Aardvark Alan and the Mountain : 10:01:03
Third : Pseudoboy : 10:01:08
Fourth : NITRO : 10:01:09
Fifth : Magnificent B 10:01:15
