TheSidewinder Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 I never said I was going to be a judge. I won't be if SNIPI know, I was just rattling your cage. I was serious about volunteering to be a judge, though, if you're looking for an "outsider". As I said, my lone entry just AINT gonna win anything (except perhaps the award for "Worst Video Framing and Editing"). And I KNOW I'll have no opportunity to build any more entries before next season. Hell, I'll be lucky to get things straight for next May. Extending til the end of January would be nice, assuming the Oz pyros are even interested? AUSSIE PYROS! GET BUSY! M
qwezxc12 Posted March 10, 2007 Posted March 10, 2007 Was there / Is there an official end to competition submissions? There are continuing posts submitting devices this year...so is the competition still open? Thx.
Mumbles Posted March 10, 2007 Author Posted March 10, 2007 Yeah, the competition end was like a month ago. I should probably get the judges in order.
deadman Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 Well we already have a thread for posting videos "If we've got 'em". I think this is just a nice time to sneak in some last entries if we wanted. Their will be judgings done soon, so I wouldn't worry too much about these. I think an archive would be in order after the comps have ended. I honestly wanted to enter the cake/mine comp, but I actually busted my scale and haven't been able to make a worthy cake of entering. Maybe I'll cop out for a cheap harbor freight one and try to sneak my entry in before Mumbles cuts it off, and has it judged.\ Mumbles: As you have yet to enter any devices, you being the judge would probably not be strongly opposed and seams fair to me.

I kinda think the thread should be given its own section and also be organized like the competitions.
pudidotdk Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 I agree with BlueSquib. It's not easy to find specific videoes you're looking for in the "post videos if you got 'em". I think videoes would be best to be posted as they're in this competetion, except prefire pictures should be optional.
deadman Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 Fountains fall slightly under the cake/mine competition.
Mumbles Posted May 21, 2007 Author Posted May 21, 2007 There are just too many different devices to have a competition for everything. I am sorry if we can not please everyone. We did try to pick out the major ones. Deadman is right, you could post fountains in the cake comp. They are close enough that they could be judged similarly.
marks265 Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 I am thinking of making another wheel so I can go out and light somethin'! I was thinking about still using the wheel competition thread because I agree with what a few other say about organization and I don't believe it has been locked out yet. The question is "would the admins move it anyway"?
Mumbles Posted January 10, 2008 Author Posted January 10, 2008 Move it where exactly? If you post it in the wheel section, it's not going to get moved.
marks265 Posted January 10, 2008 Posted January 10, 2008 I was refering to what pudidotdk said earlier on this thread along withBlueSquib. Sorry, I don't have the quote thing down yet. I thought there may be questions on this. Maybe it was in reference to the old forum??? SO, I guess the competition thread is OK yet. That's OK by me and all I need to know. Thanks,
mormanman Posted August 16, 2008 Posted August 16, 2008 When is it ending and how will we know who won? Like who picks? Is it going to be like a temporary poll but you can't vote for yourself and there are different classes?
Mumbles Posted August 16, 2008 Author Posted August 16, 2008 It was extended to whenever I get around to it. There are a group of judges preselected. It's not openly judged. There are indeed different classes.
mormanman Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Does the group of Judges know that they are the judges?
mormanman Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Could you tell me who the judges are? Can I be a judge?
TheSidewinder Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 No (to maintain objectivity) and No (because we don't need any more than we already have).
mormanman Posted August 23, 2008 Posted August 23, 2008 Then fire some one and hire me. LOL. Just kidding.
Ventsi Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 Hmm....You guys should reset the competition . Something like beginning till end of 2009? Just a though it seem as it has been going on FOREVER.
MilkyJoe Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Actually, thats I good idea Ventsi. I am not sure if TS and Mumbles have a plan yet but one way it could be done is by judging all entries from a singe year. This way it should be easy to pick the years winner from each category. 2008 Best Rocket - John Smith2007 Best Shell - John Smith
Mumbles Posted March 26, 2009 Author Posted March 26, 2009 Oh theres a plan. It involves starting new competitions. Acting on said plan is another thing though. I'm aware it needs to be done, I just need to find the time to get it all orchestrated.
psyco_1322 Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 How about a reset at New Years? 2010 is just around the corner, great time to start it over. Can we just archive these old comp entries and clear out the topics?
dagabu Posted December 15, 2009 Posted December 15, 2009 How about a reset at New Years? 2010 is just around the corner, great time to start it over. Can we just archive these old comp entries and clear out the topics? Has there ever been a competition? Who won? D
