This is why you're the head owl, or chinchilla or something. You have compassion whereas I'd have given them the option of hurrying up and making it happen by noon.

Yep I will not recognize any fool that posts after noon PST. Those of you who PM'd asking for more time when you had a week are a joke.

Well there is also the fact that creating voting polls is a lot easier on a Saturday than in the middle of a work day, so maybe there were also some utter motives behind that decision. :lol:

Sure that's your call 100%, you should do the polls whenever is convenient to you. Doesn't mean you gotta include the everybody wins for trying babies in them though.

Polls are up. Lots of cleaning up to do with all the talking on them, so only the valid entries are now on each category.

"Hey, where's my entry????"


Only entries that followed the rules of the contest are competing: "Please post pictures of your rig ready to go, wired up, passing signal. This is not a "gear collection" contest. It's all about the RIG".

Now if maybe you forgot to plug one cable end, sure you're in, I am not a nazi. But if you didn't even attempt to wire up your rig for the pic, sorry. It needs to be fair to those who actually followed the rules. :)



May the best rigs win!!!
