Much worse, its unique per moderator submission. RobK has to scale Mt. Everest with nothing but a pair of underware and a crazy chicken. IanM had to swim the nile with rabid chimpanzees dancing at the banks (which meant certain doom should he leave the river). TCA had to suffer through Bob the Builder, Barney The Dinosaur, and the Telletubies for two weeks without going completely insane or down right dying. Puffy (before he lost his mod status) had to mine out several thousand dollars worth of silver from an abandoned mine in Nevada, which only had trace ammounts of silver in it. Kanga (before he lost his mod status) had to beat Fat Bastard in a sumo restling match. RPGamer had to act out the entire script of The Lord of the Rings flawlessly. Jess, he was the lucky one, he was voted in (in turn, us voters had to swim up the mississippi river with nothing but a single wooden plank).

Several others tried though, and failed misserably (such as my miserable attempt way back when, I had to beat Godzilla in hand to hand combat...lets just say I had a better chance of surviving on Pluto with no oxygen and nothing but my shorts).

Cheers,
Preston

Nah, we didn't mind to much that he went insane, except for the fact that he now wants to take over the world.

You got mine slightly wrong though - they were flying space monkeys and they were trying to bury me under tons of slightly over-ripe bananas

As if you didn't see it coming, if there have been hundreds of users and only 10(!) mods in the ENTIRE history of Apollo, what makes you think you're a candidate? Congratulations to JessTicular! And, Jess, I see you...keep the mouse AWAY from the ban button!

MPR,
Yeah, he did tell me that... Oh well.

IC,
Don't worry, I'll restrain him so that he doesn't go anywhere near that big red ban button

Jess.
