Please have a look at my design and let me know if you would like me to add / change anything. I wasn't sure if the logo was supposed to be comical (please let me know if I got that part wrong) or if you want a more abstract or typographic design.

I think you meant "GEEKS" not "DORKS", they are completely different from each other, your age target market is alright, but I'm just taken aback by the DORK objectified rather than the GEEKS. I think you should rephrase your BRIEFING into GEEKS.

Thank God! I thought I was the only one who thought they weren't the same. I really like Hayao Miyazaki and I'm neither Dork nor Geek (I think). I think Geeks might be the ones that are really into Technology, Comics, Star wars, etc (though, not necessarily) but they do fit the description in the brief much more than dorks do. I thought dorks were only clueless, socially-awkward misfits.

I found this cool infographic-like image that explains the difference between geeks and nerds (dorks not included, but you get the idea):

Hi Wolf,

Saw the link you left here, that infographics sure summed it up.^_^ I'm glad we're on the same page.
I really think the contest holder should rephrase the whole thing into geeks or nerds because that way, their target market wont be offended by the "dork" term. Dork is so derogatory for the target market as opposed to giving them the "nerd" and "geeks" term/label which is really about empowering their target audience, which is also the purpose of their website. I hope the contest holder would realize that.
