__________________________________________________________

-Contest starts on JULY 6th.

-When your week starts, you have until FRIDAY OF THAT WEEK, to PM ShaneG your shot.  If I don't have your shot in my PM box on Saturday morning when I log on, you forfeit your match. Lips Sealed

-When I have all pics, A poll will be started for EACH Match up, with the contestants pics remaining anonymous until the results are posted.

-This is a SINGLE ELIMINATION TOURNAMENT. The winner moves on to the next round.  The loser is out of the competition.


-The need for ANONYMITY is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT for this comp to work properly & fairly.  Please keep the identity of your shots a secret until after the poll is closed. Wink

-There are NO themes, and NO restrictions on your screenshots.  Freeware, Payware, Edits, Composites, Alphas, Betas, stuff that doesn't exist yet. If you feel it gives you the upper hand, use it.

-Your shot MUST contain some element of the MSFS world. Wink

- This is for fun. A little more one on one than usual, but still for FUN! So enjoy yourself. Smiley

There are no themes. Wink

This is ANYTHING goes!  Freeware, payware, edits, composites, stuff that isn't invented yet. Cheesy

All you have to do, is produce the finest shot you are capable of doing.

It's your best work, against your opponents best work.  Cool

That's also why the need for anonymous shots.  Some people have a very distinct style...

 That could either be an advantage, or a disadvantage.  Wink

Some could be sneaky and change their style and technique altogether.

By not knowing who's shot is who's, the voter must chose which shot appeals to them more. Wink

What do you mean by match numbers? Huh

Look at the bracket, Wherever you see your name, look at the red writing underneath that says Week 1, Week 2, etc... and then look at the time line for the exact date.


Your match-up is the first week.  July 6-10, and your opponent is Mictheslick. Wink

If you win, you face the winner of Cantflywontfly & Subzer0's match.

If you lose, it's over for you. Wink

Ah, I see what you mean about match numbers. Wink

Those are kind of irrelavant.  Sorry about that.

Each week there are two match ups.  They will be announced by Players names instead of Match number. Wink

Is the new bracket better?

Can everyone see the red lettering?

I apologize for not taking into account different monitor brightness when making this. Embarrassed Wink

Ah, you're better than you think. Wink

You have good compositional skills, and you've been in this a while now, so don't sweat it.


You'll do fine.  And you've still got plenty of time to practice. Smiley

Someone had to stay out to receive the shots in a PM. Wink

If I was in it, I would have had the advantage by knowing who was winning and who's shot is who's. Wink

This isn't an editing contest, it's a screenshot contest.  Remember it doesn't have to be edited, and you can go far with the right shot....
