  1. Yup. We usually frontpage the collage when the voting starts. We haven't done this, because of the jury voting. But maybe we can something similar anyway.
  2. You might be right about this. Is this something we can backup/prove with results from previous contests?
  3. This is actually the idea for my first contest. But then TLG suggested to do a Triple Build contest. We have never done this anymore. We will definitely do this one day, but it's not at the top of my list right now. I don't agree with you on this one. For me, adding motors and electronics doesn't add much in terms of the build. This is one of the main reasons I mostly don't allow electronics. People tend to think they can do special stuff with electronics, but most functions can be made manual. For me, it's mostly about the build and the functions. These functions don't need to be operated electronically to make a good model. But I am interested to hear other people's thoughts on this matter.
  4. Agreed. I am thinking about simply allowing electronics for the next contest instead of a dedicated electronics contest. Yup. O wait, I just commented
  5. Or in our caste; The Best Place to Hide a Pinned Topic is at the Top of the Topic List
  6. Try looking at the currently pinned topics. Not a lot of them. You will figure it out
  7. Who did this? A WIP topic is a WIP topic. "Distracting the viewers"?! It's not a Youtube channel.
  8. Yes. there is. Have you checked if there could be a logical pinned topic with this information?
  9. Of course. I knew I had to add another one, but didn't remember which one. Done.
  10. No problem. Glad you were able to make the video.
  11. We only the frontpage the Top-3. That's one of the extra prizes for ending up on the podium
  12. I will add it to the post tomorrow.
  13. Absolutely. And I almost cancelled it because I wasn't sure about it. Glad we did run the contest though.
  14. Let's stick to this topic for now. Thanks for asking.
  15. For all contestants who don't have a video yet. Shoot a simple video with your phone. No need for fancy stuff, but try to show the functions. Upload the video to Youtube and link it in your entry post. You will have 24 hours to do so, while we are wrapping up the contest.
  16. Sure. I will make an announcement in the topic.
  17. Shoot a simple video with your phone and upload to Youtube.
  18. Deadline date is August 21nd, 2023. Contest will be closed on Tuesday the 22nd OR LATER. We do have a tight deadline to submit the request for prizes, so there will be NO extension. We close the contest on Tuesday to avoid timezone issues with closing on Mondays. There is no fixed time, usually when I start a workday on Tuesday (around 8-9 GMT+2, Amsterdam time).
  19. That would be too bad. But like I stated, there is no option for an extension this time around.
  20. Okay, I have had about enough of this endless debate. Let's start focusing on this awesome contest and stop the never ending story....or discussion in this case. It has been going on for too long anyway.
  21. The number of views is in no way related to the outcome of the contest. When people reply (or when you make a post), your topic is at the top of the page, so automatically more people will check it out. It has nothing to do with interest in the model itself or the build quality.
  22. Thanks mate! We really appreciate to hear that
