Gah, it's December. I hope you bloody Antipodeans are enjoying your summer. But meanwhile-
Yes, AFMOTY is back for 2009!
Builders will submit their best image of their best finished car or bike model from 2009, and members will vote for their favorite.
* AF members who have joined AF BEFORE the 1st December 2009 may enter.
* Open to model cars, trucks, and bikes only.
* Entries must be completed this year (2009), between the dates of 1/1/2009 and 12/31/2009 by AF members registered before 1st December 2009.
* Deadline for entries is 31st December 2009.
* Only ONE model may be entered per person.
* The Judges decisions will be FINAL.
Format will be the same as last year. Builder's usernames will not be displayed with their entry image. Entry images will have an entry number and a model description (e.g.
31. Lamborghini Jota). If you recognize some of the builds and know their builders, great. If you recognize all of the builds and know their builders, you may very well be the AF Car Modeling Member OF The Year. But votes are for builds, not builders.
HOW TO ENTER Entries are now closed
Send a PM to me (MPWR) entitled: MOTY (Your username)
Example: MOTY gionc
Include: ONE image of your model. Image must be NO LARGER than 800 x 600 pixels. The image must be hosted with a large, reputable durable image hosting service such as photobucket or imageshack. No images hosted on personal websites or other small/obscure/unknown hosting services
Include: A short title/description of the subject of your build. See
last year's entries for examples.
Include: A link to the thread for your build in either Completed or In Progress sections. This is to verify that the build is your own. The link will not be shown with your image on the MOTY entries thread. Your build will be represented by one image and a title only.
Entries that do not follow this format will not be accepted.
HOW TO VOTE
* Voting will start on or about January 2, 2010 when the Official AFMOTY 09 Entries thread is posted, and will run for two weeks.
* Each model will be identified by its number and description.
* To vote, simply send a PM to both 360spider and MidMazar with your vote. Include both usernames in the recipient window of your PM
* In the title window of your voting PM, place MOTY votes: (your username) ex- MOTY votes: gionc
* Votes not received by both 360spider and MidMazar will not be counted
* You can allocate points to THREE (3) MODELS.
1st=3pts
2nd=2pts
3rd=1pt
* Identify the builds you wish to apply your votes to by their entry number and description
* NO OTHER VOTING METHODS WILL BE ACCEPTED. Votes sent to me will not be counted
* Only AF members that joined BEFORE 1st December 2008 may vote. This is intended to avoid the possibility of people logging on with different names to vote again. If a vote is suspect, it will be investigated and if necessary deleted along with any involved entries.
* You CAN NOT vote for your own model.
* The judges decision will be FINAL.
* In the event of a tie, the model that received the most 3pt votes will be declared the winner. If still a tie - then the most 2pt votes.
A big thanks goes to
360spider and
MidMazar for helping put this event on.
Good luck, have fun, and let's see your best from 2009!!
