Yesterday we launched the Fauxlympics, a way to help brands and agencies discover what will and will not be allowed by LOCOG, and to test our knowledge on the restrictions.

So far, we have received six entries (three of them sex related), as well as several people getting in touch with queries, and we want to share the quality of work received so far.

Have a look, and see if these inspire you to come up with one of your own for any of the four categories.

Email the work with the agency name (if applicable), name of creator, brand the ad is for and the category it is being entered into.

Entries have now closed for the Fauxlympics, and you can vote for your favourites - whether one you see here or a different entry - here.
