Post by Mauler »

Its been over a year so is this comp going to get run again this year? Would give me reason to setup my rig in the near future for some glamour shots.

Fuck that. Even though I have an entirely new (to me) GAB-certifiable rig - including an LP I bought from the CEOwl, himself - bros here been outspending me by ridiculous levels... can't keep up :crazy:

Yeah but it's not just about dollar amounts and there's categories. We should. It usually boosts forum broale too.

We should have a mini rig category. Me and Fretless will dominate that shit. :loon:

We should just assign a new category for every entry. So like, everyone's a winner. Isn't that how the millenials are doing things? :lol:

I like the idea but then we'd have to sit through 30 minutes of Ruiner's twig boxes and robots.
