It's an interactive billboard. You can vote what you think is the correct answer by SMS.
yes of course per sms, so they can earn some money to pay the war there are in !!!
OCCUPIER
I would vote for both.
OCCUBATOR!...?
This whole series is great. Very smart use of media and good choice of topics. Every topic shown is something that's going to generate discussion, prolong the amount of time people spend with the message and get the number of votes changing regularly on both sides. So people who've seen it, will look again and again to see how many more people agree with their opinion and how many disagree. Very nice.
These are very nice.
Using a constantly changing (kind of) billboard to talk about current events. Sweet.
This will probably have people tuning into BBC just to find out if they're really right or wrong depending on the numbers.
Very nice
9/10
A really nice concept. Clever and effective.

It's only an ad.
Great idea.

I think this is a much smarter use of an interactive billboard than say the Mini billboard which says "Hi Tom" when you drive by.
Its a pet peev of mine that the media is generally unaware that the Army and Marine Corp have changed their camouflage patterns, rendering this photo and many other images outdated.
maybe the military had to use old uniforms. the new ones had holes in them.
Was that meant to be humor or was it serious? Because either way it fails.
it's more satire than anything else. although your opinion of its success concerns me greatly. (that's sarcasm in case you have to ask.)

Nasty.
Easy to joke about such stuff from a distance eh?
ah, so you're the internet tough guy. let me guess. i wouldn't say that to your face? that's cute.
No you wouldn't, and you know it.
And I am cute. Thanks.
actually, i would. but you're still cute. flex for me, tough guy.
You'd be flexing for me sweet cheeks, and you'd love it too.
Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!
Awesome!
We've all heard of the Hi-5 (it's awesome), allow me to introduce the Lo-2! think about it..........BOOM! you're right here with me.
Soak it in.
nice.
didn't mean to get in the way of your little love affair. carry on, you two.
It's Friday and I don't care what any internet dweeb has to say. Nice come back though. Very "Saved by the bell"
Spanky...Screetch..never see you both in the same place at the same time eh...
sorry, never seen it. but if you're any indication, i'm sure all the cool kids were watching it.
ha ha ha.
Spank me, have you got a boner by any chance?
You know it.
;-O
not at the moment. but i'll be sure to think of you next time i do.
I appreciate the interest Spank-Me, but... no. Please don't think of me whilst engorged. Thank you.
Hold your horses, let's see this phallus before discarding it.
Spank-me, if you want I'll take a peek at the beast, see if a wrestle is on the cards.
"ah, so you're the internet tough guy. let me guess. i wouldn't say that to your face? that's cute."

Great work Jamie!
Fantastic campaign, really catches people's eye and gets them interacting with the brand. FANTASTIC idea.
very smart.
does anybody know what they charge you for sending your vote?
LIBERATOR. who wants Iraq anyways. look at Japan are we occupier? did we occupied Japan?, Germany?, Philippines?, Vietnam?.. come on people. Thank you! next time you see a soldier he's just like you and me.. flesh and blood.
Oh yeah for sure.
Soldiers are just doing their jobs, its not their fault, its the people who sent them there, monkey boy and his sycophantic sidekick.
"did we occupied Japan"
can you speak your own language?
what?
"look at Japan are we occupier?"
"did we occupied Japan?"
"Vietnam"? (You lost that one by the way- nice going.)
You making things said in you mouth bad time big?...come on people. Thank you?
(verbs make words, sentences make paragraphs- Jurrasic 5)
sorry pixel, i have to disagree.
1.) yes, the US occupied japan, germany, the philippines
2.) the US lost the war in nam so it was beyond question to occupy it.
i'd vote for both liberator and occupier (or for none of the two)
Speaks!
