Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted July 3, 2015 Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 Question regarding the revised rules: What is the policy regarding changing photo submissions. Prior, once a Like had been cast one could not swap the image. This month there are a proliferation of Space Craft that won't be considered...I assume they are allowed to swap to 'considerable' images? Going forward, will contestants be asked to "stick" to their guns, or can they Swap images and hope they hit on a winner at month's end? Not crazy about that later idea as it means images changing all month and having to review the entire thing page by page to see if there are new photos, as opposed to visiting just the last page to see "what is new". Cheers. Matt. Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,498 Posted July 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2015 Hi Matt, If you check out the revised rules you will see #3 states the pictures can be changed at anytime up until the end of the contest. The no change rule was introduced with the like button, now it doesn't matter as the shots are not judged until the end. Hope that makes sense. Joe 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Holy Carp that looks fun Csoul. Does that bomb actually drop? Is the ship moving (no wake looks like...)? Does the ship go Boom? If so...where do I get them ? Pic 3: And now, A Dauntless trying to blow the Yamato up. Link to post Share on other sites
CSoul 182 Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 According to the manual the bombing system is realistic. From what I experienced, you flip the necessary switches and levers and the bomb tray extends as pictured. Based on a review I read, you can watch the bomb fall to the ground but you don't get an explosion unfortunately . The ship is fairly basic and has some crude gun effects (there is a wake but it's really small). You can get it from simviation by searching for 'Yamato.' The model I used is by an Erwin Welker. The Dauntless is the Vertigo Studios payware version. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
SEATAC 400 Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Hey Joe. This month's contest is called "Three Greens", but my DC-10 has four greens with the extra center gear for the series 30 and 40. Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 I am guessing that so long as you have at least a Left and a Right (for a retract with a fixed tail wheel/strut), Nose, and certainly center, are extra gravy. Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,498 Posted September 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 There's no extra points for smartass replies Richard, but I like it! As many greens as you like, so long as the gear is in transit 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted January 1, 2016 Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 Since I didn't participate in the Holiday Theme contest (I blame lack of image editing software and an often Grinchly demeanor around the holidays ) but the entries all made me break a smile, I wanted to drop a note mentioning that I appreciated seeing every one....my way of Supporting the contest even if I didn't put in an entry. Nice work people...fun entries for a fun theme! Hope you all had happy holidays. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
