I reported it here exclusively over two weeks ago, and now the stunt queens at Fleshjack have finally gotten around to making it “official“: Jake Bass is the 6th place winner in Fleshjack’s annual “Fleshjack Boy” contest. Congratulations, Jake!
Like I said back on July 13th, Jake Bass’s win was confirmed by a source deep inside Fleshjack, and like I said back on July 18th when Fleshjack decided to change the rules and “re-start” their contest after finding out about the leak inside of their company, my source’s information was verified, re-verified, and then re-verified again. It was a tip that I was excited to present here as a fun, positive story benefiting both Jake Bass and Fleshjack. Unfortunately, Fleshjack used it as an opportunity to drum up more publicity (which ultimately backfired), drag out a contest that everyone was already sick of hearing about after the first day it began (thanks in large part to Seth Knight’s Twitter feed), and to call me a liar.
As of post time, I’ve yet to receive an apology from Fleshjack for their tweet to nearly 9,000 followers saying that The Sword was “making false accusations,” but I won’t hold my breath. (And in return, I’ll be sure to never again write about Fleshjack for The Sword’s 1,000,000+ monthly visitors. You’re welcome.)
The bright spot, of course, is that they made the right decision today and stuck with Bass, the original 6th place winner (imagine the backlash if they would’ve picked someone else). So again, congratulations, Jake Bass!
Congrats Jake, congrats Fleshjack, congrats Zach / Naked Sword. Everybody’s a winner!
I so was looking forward to fucking myself senseless with Tommy’s dick! *sigh*
Very happy by this out come. Funny how they announced it SOOOO qucikly out the voting ended! Guess there did not have THAT many votes to count. OR they already knew the winner!!!! Either way I am glad they did the right thing by JAke.
Congratulations Jake (again.) Very well deserved (again) although I would have been happier about it if Fleshjack hadn’t dragged their feet and acted so begrudging.
The crushingly stupid part of this is that if the sixth place winner really was Tommy Defendi or Zeb Atlas or one of those dudes I don’t remember, FJ’s lame way of handling it managed to guarantee a huge win for Jake Bass. I wouldn’t be surprised if this mini-contest got more votes for Bass than the main contest got for everyone combined.
Fleshjack’s overbearing and endless publicity stunts have completely turned me off to its product. Plus, they are a fucking nightmare to clean. It and Nasty Pig need to chill the fuck out with their transparent endorsement schtick that wastes my Twitter feed.
