Contest: Sci-Fi Cargo ANNOUNCEMENT

ANNOUNCEMENT :

Ok I have been chatting to our great leaders regarding the ending of the contest .. been the 3rd of NOVEMBER .. ending a 2 week contest .. the feeling is that this may not be enough time with real live situations to deal with..

this is in part my error .. as it was my idea to start it and the reins of power when to me.. and I have been a bit short sighted in some areas.

So I would like to know by all participating members ,, Do you want an other week.. to finish up .. that would make it the 10th of November the finish..

Please Respond asap ..

The Closing Date has been changed until the 10TH of November

The 10th would give me a chance to actually attempt a texture treatment. As it is I'll barely make the deadline with work obligations. The 10th would be great. (But don't do it for me alone.)

10th?
lets see.... there's the Aether engines to complete... I could get some of the cockpit modeled..

agreed here.. 1 vote for the 10th!

October 27th, 2008, 01:55 PM

Sounds like a plan to me.

October 27th, 2008, 02:15 PM

sounds good to me...i got some more work (engine redesign) that I have to do. Oh crap, it's time to go to work now.

gmd3d · October 27th, 2008, 02:15 PM

Yep, sounds good to me!

General Phoenix · October 27th, 2008, 03:21 PM

I think we have enough "Aye" votes to go ahead and extend it.

With the excellent work I've seen from all of you, I'd be more than willing to wait an extra week to start voting.

October 27th, 2008, 03:24 PM

Fine by me

October 27th, 2008, 03:28 PM

I understand I have something of an unfair advantage, so I have no objections.

gmd3d · October 27th, 2008, 03:36 PM

Cool thanks .. looks as if it a consensus

Aabh · October 27th, 2008, 03:40 PM

(I'm in for one more week... I got swamped

)

gmd3d · October 27th, 2008, 03:58 PM

Ok .. Tomorrow I will change the final date ..

gmd3d · October 27th, 2008, 04:42 PM

The Closing Date has been changed until the 10TH of November

"T" Some people only have weekends so I say give them as much time as they need within reason

I had to be out of town for a week, so I would humbly like to ask for another week.

October 27th, 2008, 09:08 PM

I would also agree with the extension. I'm making progress on my entry, but I'm going to be swamped with work until just after Election Day. Another week would be great.

Edit: Oops, too late for chiming in. But thanks for the extra time.

gmd3d · October 28th, 2008, 02:20 AM

Well to be far and as people have real life to deal with too... if some one need more PM me and I will extend if needed .. don't forget that member well be voting on the design they like best .. (not their own now

) ..... So the Voting day can facilitate those that need the extra time ..
You can Texture if you like .. but it a design focused.. texturing would be like icing on the cake .....

This is my first contest .. and designs wise a roaring success.. I have been stunned at the stuff been submitted..

I hope that some will end up in our downloads area .. Mine will

Oh, now I like it being extended to the 10th.....gives me a little more time to juggle things between work, the new move and getting this project done.

Me too.
It gives me more time to juggle between lager and ale.

XFozzboute · October 28th, 2008, 04:54 PM

Cool an extension. Now I can relax a little.

Lee · October 28th, 2008, 11:00 PM

My thoughts exactly Xfozz...

evil_genius_180 · October 28th, 2008, 11:44 PM

Who said anything about relaxing? This just means we'll be expecting much more out of you.

February 1st, 2011, 04:19 PM

Sorry to have missed the contests... maybe the next time.... love a good challenge.....

Darrell Lawrence · February 1st, 2011, 05:47 PM

Actually, the next contest is kinda similar to this one, but has a definitive starting point.
