Count me in!! This will be fun.




Question -- Where did this ever become fashionable? I will happily honor the rule, but I would like comment that obviously, if everybody DID vote for themselves, those votes could completely null out, therefore not affecting the vote whatsoever...

Just curious.

That's been a part of the contest rules since they began. Simply put, if everyone is "forced" to vote for themselves, then they aren't able to participate in the voting of the contest, and we all know that that's no fun. So, don't vote for yourself, and vote for the one model you think is the best. If you think yours is best no matter what... well... then we have an ego problem.

Yes, I am talking to you, ~t!

I'd say yes.. not to steal Jon's thunder. But he posted this what, yesterday? or so, and I don't see any problems there.

Theft!

I shall report this to the police!

But really, that's right. You can continue the one that you started today even though it wasn't for the comp initially, it is in the time frame, so it's cool.

I'm half way though finishing my model. But considering some of the other entrants, I'm going to have to go back over some of that stuff and 'up-my-game'.


Gah, damn you all for making me 'try'.


Oh an Aeroplane, that rule has always been there. But, since there is no way for me to check, then you can still vote for yourself if you like, but that's hardly in the spirit of things. Since there really isn't a prize for winning, there isn't much point trying to get that 'edge' over your competitors, as it is more about trying to improve your own skills than beating other people.

Nonsense! -T is going down! Whos with me? theres cookies! (as provided by Jon)

[The Doctor]

Hmm. Count me in.

I was thinking about using a model I started about a week ago (before this contest was posted), as I didn't foresee myself having a lot of time to work on it. But a few minutes ago I was struck with inspiration, and as such will start a completely scratch model tomorrow...after work (and when I say scratch, I mean it's all Bitz. Not converting an existing model).

I've never really done one of these contests, as I get easily distracted with things. Especially painting.

Due to the extreme lack of theme I feel Iinclined to ask if it would be alright to enter a tank?
If so I would like to...oh, cookies.
