For just one week Domino's pizza has brought back the infamous Noid from the cold storage unit where old corporate mascots live out their days in peace, far from the reach of screaming children. But before you get excited for the return of crudely animated ads we hate to tell you that the Noid is only back in the form of a Facebook campaign. Still, we missed that red rascal!> “There are no plans to bring The Noid back in any commercials,” a Domino's spokesperson says, “This is purely a weeklong Facebook and social-media promotion.” So yeah, sigh. From now until August 15th the warm-pizza hating creature is starring in an 8-bit style Facebook game which in theory gives a $10 dollar Domino's gift certificate to the game's high scorer every minute (though last we checked though the game was "temporarily out of order"—just like an old arcade!). And that's it. >
