Re: MOTY 2018 Announcement

I've been thinking about tweaking the rules for the MOTY a bit this time around, and wanted to get your input on this.

In the past, only one one model per member was allowed, this time around, I'm thinking to lift this requirement, and allow more than one model to be entered. In order to be fair, and for all to have equal opportunities, I propose to allow two models to be entered, preferably one road entry, one motorsport entry, but could be both of the same. The reasoning behind this is to :

1. Increase overall number of entries to make the thing more competitive.
2. Try not to leave behind some of the better builds from the same builder that may choose one of the models over the other for their entry while they wish they could enter both.
3. Allowing people who build both road and race cars to showcase their skill in both areas.

If the both models from the same builder end up being on the podium (1, 2, or 3rd place), only the higher placing entry would be considered and awarded, with runner-up taking the next prize.

Let me know what you think. Also, if there are any other suggestions, please let me know. Thanks!

Alex

Is my Porsche 997 Gt3r Falken eligible for this?

Re: MOTY 2018 Announcement

I will be entering, and glad to hear this is going to happen again! Thanks to everyone who is putting this on!

I like the more than one entry rule. That should make things interesting. Although, I am only building about one a year now, so don`t expect more than one from me.

Re: MOTY 2018 Announcement

I like the idea of 2 different subjects per person.
Definitely worth a try.

It doesn't have to even be different subjects, but would be cool if it is.
Or, maybe if you build in different scales, enter that instead. Or, it could be a car and a bike, or a truck.

Yes, as long as you have a WIP thread or a completed model thread here on AF that was finished in 2018.
