Honestly, I think June 27 is way too far away haha. If it takes you a month to snap some photos of your rig, you've got bigger problems.

dammit, my bad hommies!


It looks like several of the categories could stand to be consolidated down. Maybe have like 3 total?

Or we can just split up all the prizes between Duncan and Itchy :D

I’ll move their posts into here. Not a problem. At any rate I put the date out so far because the last two years running I had people asking me to extend it because they didn’t get their pics up in the two week time period. Maybe next year we’ll look into consolidating down some of these but the ones that did get added were requested for.

Wow. We had a really small turnout. Should I keep this open a few more days or close it up at 3pm EDT/12pm PDT?
