Is your roommate/mother/significant other constantly pestering you about the condition of your room? Has the Board of Health threatened you on more than one occasion?

Tell them all to relax. Vaultcracker.com is sponsoring the "Junkiest Dorm Room in America Contest."

The contest requires participants to send a photograph of the "junky room" to the site. The room deemed the "junkiest" will win its inhabitant $300. The runner up will be awarded $100.

"The "Junkiest Dorm Room in America Contest" was designed to promote our site to college students who enjoy fun 'timewaster' sites on the Internet," said Richard McNaily, president of Excaliber Entertainment, Inc.

Penn State students were pleased to be able to get something for their filth.

Joe Gugel (sophomore-computer engineering), whose friends Eric Horowitz (sophomore-premedicine) and Matt Spicher (sophomore-computer science) are the proud owners of a messy room, said, "I know that they love their room messy, and wouldn't have it any other way."

Other students like the fact that there is a cash prize.

"That's pretty easy money," said Diana Del Toro (sophomore-business). "I might enter the contest, because I could really use the money."

Vaultcracker.com was sympathetic to the typical plight of college students.

"We know that college students, one, don't have a lot of money and, two, have messy rooms," said McNaily.

While "junky" as a term may fall into several different categories, Vaultmaker.com has definite ideas of what it's looking for.

"We would consider a "junky" room to be anything ranging from a messy bed to a room in which the inhabitant can't open the door from the inside of the room," said McNaily.

McNaily, as president of the company, will be judging the contest.

"I'm looking for something that's eye-popping," said McNaily. "Still, it has to be livable. Normal people don't live with trash all over the floor. If we see stuff like that, we'll know it's a false entry."

The contest is designed as a promotion tool for the Web site.

"We're promoting our new site, and thought this would be a special thing for college students," said McNaily. "We thought it would be fun for them."

E-mailed photo entries to the contest are due Feb. 16. The winner will be announced by Feb. 23. Students interested in more information should e-mail info@vaultcracker.com.
