Sounds Fair! Better get my mustang into gear..............

I also think 30 is a small number.
I think everyone who is interested in participating in the contest should have is chance.
My propose is no limit number of models in contest (1 per person) and if the number of models exceeds the 25,30 then post them in separated threads.

OK ....With the amount of PM's I'm getting, the main thing seems to be the number (30), which you all seem to think is on the "'small" side.
I'll give it another day to get some more veiws.

Thanks for all your replys. If anybody can think of anythink else...please tell me.

Excellent idea.
Good luck to all

P-man, this is a great idea!!
What if someone from Europe will enter, as you will know there is a time difference between Europe and the US. Fo example, if there are 30 members from Europe entering on December 1st, there is no room for US members because on that time it is still November 30th in the US.

I hope you could find something for that.

Good luck with it!!

That's not the worst thing, with the time difference, all the Aussies and Japonese would enter, leaving no room for us from Europe ahhhggggg!!!! :cry: j/k


P-Man, i just love the idea and....... keep no limits for entries, to give all members a chance


Cheers, and may the best model win (i hope its mine )

30 Models?? NO WAY.
Just 2 models!!

LOL LOL LOL j/k

No seriously, You'll have to wait and see how many people actually will enter the contest. My suggestion is this one. If, and that's an IF there are to much submissions, make some categories out of it. Don't advertise them in advance. You're old and wise enough to split the categories. Then post the models in the different categories, and we choose the category winners. Then in the second round (! yes) you post 1 thread with the category winners and during 1 week, we vote for the overall winner who takes all the spoils.

Just an idea of the humble Guido

I think some people might think it's unfair after it being split into categories, as some might want their model in other categories instead of the one chosen for them.

If the entires do get over, say 30, why not put them on seperate thread, like "Model contest entires 1, Model contese entries 2...etc" then it would solve the too many pictures to load problem for 56K modem users.

Thanks P-man, Jay and Chris for organizing the contest and giving out prizes!

Btw, I'm not entering this time, cause I have nothing worthy of it yet, but watch out at next year's contest (if we make this annual).

Just another vote for "30 is not enough". Sometimes I am amazed at the amount of talent here, and I think you will be getting, or should be getting (enter something all of you!) alot of decent models competing.

I agree.

The catagories idea sounds good! :alien:

[primera man]

OK OK OK....I will open it up to more then 30 models
But as turbos86 has said...if there is a whole heap of entries i will have to make a couple of threads

I'm not going to do catagories though. The contest is run as a People's Choice only.

Cheers

I understand, yes. It would take us to far from the initial idea. It's AF's own model contest and in being a People's Choice contest is differs from the rest of all the contest in the 'none cyber' world, which makes it unique in its own way.

OK, I'm convinced
