    I would like sincerely congratulate everybody who contributed their work to this year competition and even more to admins and judges volonteers. Thank you!
    I missed almost entire competition timeframe due to death and sicknes in imeediate family and was prepared for things somewhat to fall apart.
    Going trough build logs this week was blowing my mind and it was lots of joy to be part of.
    Allow me few days to figure out who get what pick, I will keep list updated as it goes.

                I started in Sept, Westcoast living and no workshop means I rely solely on good weather.

                    Curiosity thought, now that comp is over, can each member ask judges one question?.. For instance I would like to know what is the #1 like and #1 disslike in a build log?

                      I was actually wondering that too. Would be nice to hear some feedback on our builds so we know what to improve for next time out

                        IT would be extra work for them and they would have to re evaluate all of our work, but it would be useful for sure !

                          I understand from where you guys are coming from, but we need to keep in mind that I’m asking somewhat famous and busy people to voloteer their time for me just in spirit of common hobby.
                          The favor should not be a burden.

                          Also, this is not exam or any sort of formal evaluation. Each judge is a person and ranks according his personal preferences.

                          I can speak for myself, that I like to see custom Or unusual work, I like to like what I see regardless cost of parts, I hate brand whoring, I don’t like my ocd to be hurt with poor pairings (imho), some things may trigger sentimental thoughts. Does it all make my PERSONAL preference a some sort of guide? I don’t think so!!

                          This is annual event to get together for common minded people with few random perks attached, not competition driven by greed for a free stuff or formal modder certification.

                          Happy to to discuss this further.

                            Thanks for the feedback. The judges time is appreciated, but I do agree that the only way for an amateur to improve is through criticism/feedback. Would it be possible to maybe add 2 categories to what the judges fill out next year? Along with the scores there could be a category for Biggest Like and Biggest Dislike. Then from there they just enter a simple answer. Scorecards are great but feedback is even better to help the little mod community grow!

                              Get on a social media search for judges @ youtube and the like.
                              See what the judges like.
                              We had a very large number of judges this year and each has their own likes an dislikes (Taste).
                              Judging must remain anonymous so please don't be annoying our judges.

                              Thank You

                                I think we need to take it less serious and just enjoy the little party. Having said that ill
                                poke our judges for feedback on expanding score card. I’m not hopeful as it is significant time commitment as it is.
