THE FANTASTIC FOIL CONTEST

Post by farmer »

Ok so here its is i wanted to start a contest thread, not just any contest THE FANTASTIC FOIL CONTEST
so let me tell you how it works

PLEASE READ BEFORE PLAYING

The member whos turn its is will wrap a rc with Body on in foil SO THAT THE SHAPE CAN ALMOST BE MADE OUT dont just put a sheet of foil and say thats it! try to shape it a little but dont give it away (see example below) and one hint pic (see example below)
a hint pic is something that is per say is EXCLUSIVE to that rc model with out giving it away

remember fun
there will be ONLY 20 guesses allowed per game for one 24 hour period , which ever comes first..so make sure you keep checking the board there could be a really short contest and a new one starting

if no one guesses in the 20 guesses are 24 hour period a new hint picture must be put up on the the thread by the contest holder,, and than a new 20 guesses are 24 period starts

if by than after the second 20/24 period no one still gets it, the contest holder must reveil there car,and make us all look like dumb a$$ and start with a new contest and car

when some one has the first correct answer the contest holder must announce with a pic of the foil off the car
and who the winner is, and send them a pm for there address to get them there prize

Any UNCERTAINTY of correct answers should be discussed through a pm with ither me unless my guess may be the one in question (i play also) or a reputable member to act as a arbitor before annoucing a winner

than the winner is now the new contest holder
by entering the contest and guessing you are accepting the fact that you MIGHT win and will be the new contest holder

PRIZES remember this is for fun!! prizes can range from anything that you might have spares of, are anything that would be cool to give away as a prize. also prizes are private,unless the contest holder wishes to allow knowledge of there prize, if the winner wants to disclose there prize after getting it that would be cool and should happen just to see what people are winning

GOLDEN RULE OF PRIZES (Remember to think of your prize as something that you would like to get as a prize)
so if you want to give away MIB kit thats up to you if you want to give a used shock tower thats your choice just remember the prize golden rule

exceptable answers example--lets say i put a grasshopper 2 under the foil and someone guesses grashopper he or she would be the winner you cant put a model of a team edition rc10 and someone guesses rc10 and you say not rite because its a team car a rc10 is a rc10 just as much as a grasshopper 2 is a grasshopper a, VAGUE answer will not be acceptable you cant just say its a tamiya and call that your answer

car must have the original body are a remake of the original
no posting of (example dont put a grasshopper out there with a frog body )

guesses must be specific NO! its a tamiya some sort of thingy



once you become the contest holder just copy and paste the rules and title it THE FANTASTIC FOIL CONTEST #
dont quote it, for it will carry the old pictures. JUST copy the rules and paste
please read the rules before playing

THE RULES

1. HAVE FUN

2. only one guess per contest time allowance

3. no guesses for members out of the USA im sorry but there will be prizes and shipping outside the USA can get pricey even for something small, (BUT IF YOU WANT TO WHEN ITS YOUR TURN PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT ITS POSTED BEFORE YOUR TURN)
Im not trying to be to be unfair but please understand this is supposed to be fun and cheap
also if the international rule is not ineffect by the new contest holder, and a international player wins! the international winner must automaticly have to valadate any international winner on there contest example ( if your are from germany and you win a contest that the #3 rule was waived you have to honor any international winning answer on your contest you cant enforce rule #3 and lock the contest to europe)

4. As a winner you are the new contest holder/ once CONTEST is over please! PM the winner to get his/her address
so you can get there prize to them, if you do not want to give a prize away to the winner of your contest please DONT PLAY
it is not fair to the WINNER,

5. dont be a sore loser are a arrogant/sore winner

6. remember the GOLDEN PRIZE RULE

7. MUST BE A MEMBER allowed in the BST section

8. no edits of post if there are any signs of a edit member will be disqualified from that game

9. BE HONEST

10. rc must have the original body ,are a remake of the original body, If the chassis didnt come with a body use a different car

11. if contest holder wants to edit a rule or rules from there contest it must be posted on there starting post
ex-rule #3

12. failure to READ and go by the rules is a automatic disqualification/your guess will not be accepted/We will know if you read the rules

13. if you dont plan on following through with the contest prize dont play!
we all play for fun and we all follow through with are end! when its your contest send your prize to the winner




RULES CAN BE REVISED AT ANY TIME ! ONLY TO MAKE THE GAME BETTER
IF YOU FEEL A RULE NEEDS SOME TWEEKING SPEAK UP!

Foil Contest #3 is underway. Well all I have is heavy duty foil and it is going to make the shape impossible to figure out, good luck. Rule 3 does not apply, everyone is welcome on this one.
