Wow- there's a lot of us. Woohoo!!

Just one last question:

I see a lot of threads now with [Tale of Painters] in their titles. Did people just decide to do this on their own, or is there something in the rules somewhere that says we have to do this? I'm planning to start a wip thread soon, but it's gonna discuss conversions, painting, lists, etc. -- the whole thing. Must I put [Tale of Painters] in the title?

That said, I guess I'd better hurry up and do my test model, lest I fall behind and have to use a "joker" month at the start!

EDIT: Sorry to bug the thread with this. Won't post again for a month, when I have pictures! Promise!

That's just people putting it in their threads to let people know that they are doing it for this.

I'm not sure if Kuffy wants people cluttering up this thread with questions and comments, though... so he can feel free to delete what he needs to.

King Ulrik Flamebeard · October 1st, 2007, 20:54

Its exactly that. People are allowed to make their own, but it's not a requirement.

As to posting. Well, I don't mind; as long as we get the posts on time etc. Banter is good really; and I can always delete and start again if needs be. Or... Oooo!!

hey Kuffy can i switch over to a tau army cause i am not doing chaos anymore (kinda finished them)

king88mob · October 2nd, 2007, 02:58

so if i have two months worth of points (400 or so) split out as 155, 155, 100, is it ok to do 155 the first month and 255 the second month? I'm assuming yes, but just want to be sure.

Yeah mate, you should re-read the sign up thread

:

Quote:

Q : Can I paint less than 200 points. What if my unit only comes to 175 points.
A : That’s fine. If you do a unit that totals 150 points the next month you try to do one that comes to 250 points. There will obviously need to be this kind flexibility.
However I would like people to try and stay as close as possible to the monthly targets to make comparisons between projects possible. As long as by month one you are around the 200 point mark, month two the 400 point mark, month three the 600 point mark that will be fine.

This is going to be awesome, even if only 1/3 of the people who signed up follow through! But lets hope there aren't that many slackers

And may I say, may the best man not win! 'Cos I want a chance!

Hi Kuffy

I did sign up on the tale of painters thread but seemed to have been missed off the 40k November deadline list (probably because I was not specific enough about my army - or you are worried about my tingling paintbrush) can you please count me in with the following:
