What about the one that makes a blog?


EDIT: God, that joke wasn't near funny enough for a page break.

Sadly, everyone that send email just gets an auto response. I doubt it's the trailhead for an ARG; it's probably just a fan effort, but it's still pretty cool.

I evilly sent in an appilcation in song form, thinking there was no reason Bad Horse could resist something in rhyme:

"I would love to apply
But when I did try
I found that applications were closed.

To join evil's elite
Would be ever so sweet
So I hope I'm not totally hosed.

I searched the web page source
for secret messages from Bad Horse
BUt my hopes were all for naught.
So, now I write you
To show what I can do
Bad Horse, let me show you what I've got!"

Whois shows you're probably right.  Whois for drhorrible.com gives Jed Whedon's name and contact info and a reg date of February with Melbourne IT; evilleagueofevil.com was registered just last week through GoDaddy/Domains by Proxy.

In that vein, there's also a sorta-funny twitter feed for Captain Hammer:
http://twitter.com/captainhammer

ETA:

But wait! According to the Comic-Con Panel, they're also going to have a contest. They'll take video submissions for the Evil League of Evil. 3 minutes, like you're applying to be on Survivor. 10 best submissions will be put on the  DVD.

The top applications to the Evil league of Evil are up. The top three are definitely worth a look, the rest vary in quality and often feature terrible rap.

I dunno about that #1, was pretty irritating.

Tur-Mohel was the fucking bomb winner IMHO.

Without doubt. That was hilarious. Very Mel Brooks in Men in Tights.

Getting one for the lady, and one for myself. I'm totally gay for NPH.

There's probably a price break at fifty, though!

Got the DVD for Christmas.  Watched the ELE apps.  Actually, NONE of the ones from the site Kashan linked are on there except Tur-Mohel.  The ones that are on there are quite good!  Even the ones that aren't especially funny are on there for a reason -- Duchess of Defeet wasn't worth more than a chuckle or two, but the craft behind it (cardboard faces animated with stop-motion photography) was awesome.

Haven't made it through the rest of the features yet -- we checked out the first couple minutes of Commentary: The Musical just to take a peek at it, but it was getting late so we didn't check the whole thing out.  The first bit, though, is AWESOME.

Watched it again last night and, for the first time, noticed Tick creator Ben Edlund's name in the credits.  A quick Googling reveals a Whedon interview from last July that says Ben left the project early but created Moist and Bad Horse.

This may all be on the (non-musical) commentary.  I haven't gotten around to watching it yet.
