Ive got a question.

what time (the latest) is the scores due in i mean because im over here what time in zulu or GMT+ what ever should they be in by

just so i know Cheesy

I would say whatever Sunday night before bed is, for your particular timezone, they should be in then.

I'm pretty sure you get to Monday morning before I do, so by the time I log on on my Monday morning, they should be in.

Best to have all scores in on Sunday at some point so that I can post results & next theme on Monday morning.

BTW, what happened to Andy? Huh

Let's say, if Mic, Andy and Jisco don't come up with their shots, we should only count one of N.Chapman's shots (either one, it doesn't matter) making it 8 shots a piece from both teams? Just to keep things even from both teams considering its only R1.

I've been thinking about this, and I'm going to have to disagree with it for a couple of reasons:

- This is the main reason why Team 9 lost the last time, Our scores were consistently high, we just always had fewer entries. Using average scores to fill that hole or dropping some Team X scores to even it up would have made it a much closer finish.

- The main reason I disagree is that I posted in the sign up thread, and in this thread in the rules, "This contest rolls on whether you're in or not."

Before the contest started we had worked out the second shot from Team 9 to cover our missing 10th man to make it even. That means on any given week, our second shot person could not even show, and we'd be down two shots. And I know Team X wouldn't want to lose 2 shots to make it even.

Simply put, this contest is more about pride in your sim of choice than anything else. You get 5 days to take a single screenshot to show what you feel your sim is capable of over it's brother, and the theme is given to you. If in 5 days someone who signed up for this can't find an hour or so to take a shot and post it, the ones who did should not suffer by having their shots discounted.

Comments and questions are always welcomed.

Sorry team X I've been out of town since Wednesday and got home later than expected... Undecided

Thought I'd get home Friday evening but turned out to be Saturday evening, then I had to take care of personal issues.

Admit it, you're secretly just giving Team 9 a chance out of sympathy. Grin

Glad to see you're back.
