Ok I just finally decided what to do with my vote for the CoolerMaster competition and I'mn amazed at how the votes have rocketed snce I last looked. Bod's lightcycle is up at almost 500 votes and Asphiax is currently looking at about 440.
Bearing in mind this is the 'scratchbuilt' section though I don't understand how there are other mods in there with more votes when they just look so meh... Or rather, just not so OMFG as the former entries...
As examples both of our boys are currently trailing the gingerbread house which I find quite surprising (but the gingerbread house IS at least unique like our entries so that's not so bad!)
Furtehr to that though there are only 2 more entries trumping our boys which are a clever 'blooming' tower mod which opens up (not sure why but it looks quite neat) which is on nearly 1800 votes! Now it's unique I'll give it that but seriously? It doesn't take long to cut up a nice looking case and hinge it in two places, what else has this project got to warrant so much love?
The one which prompted me to post is L3p's cool desk though which is already on 2200 votes! It looks very cool and he's done a great job but in reality it's the easier kind of modding (lots of space and a big square box) compared to the real scratchbuilds where everything must be executed with precision.
Obviously I don't (and probably never will!) have an entry so I'm free to comment with no personal bias, just a little site pride holding me back from a completely objective opinion! That said, all of the entries are pretty col but I don't get how people can rate the simpler builds like a desk and a tower over a friggin lightcycle and a Federation Starship! Seriously?
Good luck to our boys anyway (and to a lesser extent everyone else) As it stands we're looking at 3rd place positions right now but at least that'd be enough to keep you modding
