For the commercial parody contest, does the commercial need to be for a NEW product or can we use an existing product? For example, can we directly mock a specific ad, using existing product names, or will that violate the terms? Obviously some commercials can be parodied without directly invoking a product name, but others might not be.
Thanks!

It can be an existing product, but it would have to be a clear parody and not intentionally damage the product in any way. let me know if that answers your question, James

Do we have to base it on a specific product or can we be vague, such as condoms in general? Should i change it to Durex?

Also how can i make my predictions? Where is the predictions page? Is there anyway i can read other peoples commercial ideas or are they only published after the deadline, i'm not sure how many people are entering this, it says 15 submissions, is that right, i thought thousands would enter? Sorry if any of my questions are obvious i'm new to Tongal.

Referring to the comment above, don't we get to vote on 15 submissions? What happens to the ideas, pitches and videos that don't win for the Comedy.com contest? Does Comedy.com have the chance to purchase them off-line? Do they go into some sort of gallery?
