Hey guys!

I have a few rigs involved in this months round of competition. 2 of the 3 stand decent chances, my 3rd rig (DSF) is against 100years of Harley (one of *my* favorite rigs) from mnpctech, and as such I expect that one to fall by the wayside... ;)

But if you guys have not voted yet, dont forget to do so! If you did not know about the site, go check it out! It's a pretty cool concept!

get out there and cast your votes! You could be the ones who decide the fate of some lucky modder! ;)

Added my Unreal Sonata but couldn't figure out the PICS. How do you make them show up. Best I could do was the Links??

After you build your profile, and you have added in your machine description, there should be a section to the right that is for "Add a new image" It is on your main rig profile page, not on the editing page... kinda wierd that way. Be sure to edit your pics to the proper sizes, and read this thread for some good sugestions (http://modshop.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=60)

Neat thing about this is that, the competitions are based off of "Props". Giving a mod "props" is akin to saying you think the buid is cool. You case gets enough "props" it competes in the next month of battles.

That way, some rigs that competed one month, may not compete in the next month, *if* they do not get enough "props".

The field will populated with builders whose rigs have enough props to compete. Likely the top 64 prop getters would be my guess.

Well... Lupine and DSF fell as I expected, but BOSS is showing some steam... :)

Next round is up and your votes and mods are needed! Seen Taztg's rig out there, and I look forward to seeing it compete next month! You guys get out there and vote for your favorite rigs!

I'm going to be in an excellent battle against one of SlipperySKip's best mods! Should proove interesting!

If you have not yet, get up there and vote!

At the very least give our rigs Props. I think it helps keep the rigs around for another month.

Sorry to hear about Lupine. She is one of my favorite MODS.

Doods! This thing is a frikken knife fight! Several of the battles are still registering the "Too close to call"... including yours truly's battle!

If you guys have not voted, please make sure to step in and place your votes!

Yea, what TD said.. Prety cool site. I really like the fact that your Case Mod can compete even if its not a current MOD. I see alot of older case Mods from a years past. The boys from Gruntville are being well represented.

I would love to see some of our Older Case Mods posted up there.

Adisharr, web56n, GaryUT just to name a few. Hey you can win some nice money plus its loads of fun to have your rigs out there.

Kick @$$!!! Just made it to the 4th round, top 8!
I am now against the awesome Juggernaut that is Sangaku...
If it was anyone else but my Boss rig, I'd vote for his... but not now.

Sangaku came in 2nd place last tourney. This is going to be a stretch, because I know how good that damn rig is!

Have to hope that there are more gear heads in the voting mix than there are finesse/elegance types... ;)

So, round 4 is up! Go vote!

The one in the contest, BOSS, has been completed for a long while now! ;)

Deuce is not competing, since it is not done yet. But you can bet that it will!

I was kinda surprised Lupine didn't go further. That is one beautiful MOD.

Tech-Daddy

:) People have their favorite mods, I am very happy that you like it. It is very subtle. If I make the profile a bit more "marketing oriented" and bput more shots up there... more may come to appreciate it! ;)

My PM's are open now too... I had to flush some old traffic.

Looks like The HULK is pulling ahead. Its nice but not my type of thing. The Boss needs your folks vote lets get over there and Pimp TD..:)

Yeah, it was late last night. After I posted that comment I realized that it did actually show the trend (the red moved to the left). I was tired!

Either way, good job Tech-Daddy. I think you should have won. ;)

Hehehe... it was a fun run!
No doubt!

Now, If I understand the rules... I am not exempt from competing again in another round, so that said, BOSS could still theoretically place in the money several times without winning! ;)

competition though is getting more and more fierce.

It's cool though... that is what the site was for!

Thanks to everyone who voted for me, and even a thanks goes out to those that voted for MaxPC... it's the vote count totals that I am impressed with..

Win or loose, Max and I put up some good voting numbers.

I noticed alot of folks have multiple rigs in the contest. I also notice they are battling themselves in this Dec. First Round.
TD, Good Luck in the Dec. Battles. Hope to see Lupine and my Unreal MOD go deep in the battle's. I am pitted up against John Deere which is a pretty clean MOD. :)

TAZTG

12-08-2007, 07:06 PM

Gulp, I made it into Round 2 for Dec. but going up against the Puzzle Box. Looks like he has a small lead already. TD, can't believe Lupine didn't make to this round.

Anyway Folks Go Vote!! Its Fast and Fun. Plus a good way to see some Nice MODS.

I think your DSF should have moved on to the next round since the Doom Case should have been Re-Entered. Once a case wins they should be in-eligible to compete for 6mths or even longer. I hope Lupine moves on.. :)

Well, TAZTG... better late than never! ;)

DSF has cracked the top 8!

Voting has changed a little bit folks, in that you can vote multiple times, but only once a day. So swing by once a day, and support your rigs that you like!

I know the voting still sucks for the Competition. Kinda reminds of the one before that you was in that had problems. Forgot the company but there is a thread here about how folks kept spamming votes on themselves. Anyway Congrats on the final 8. I got knocked off early by a couple of votes to the Cobra MOD.

I do only vote once for each round. Now if you want to offer a bribe for some extra votes lets talk. :) (J/K GUYS) To Be Honest I don't see why Lupine hasn't made it to any finals. Still your best MOD if you ask me.

WOO HOO!!!!

Voting windows are getting much shorter now, so if you are wanting to vote, remember to place your votes once a day! You can vote multiple times, but only once a day!

Be sure to come out and vote for your favorite mod!!!
