Weetabix7 Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 Yay! the more the merrier the competition is getting crazy! Yeah, we've been getting some good last minute entries. Keep 'em coming I say, the more contestants we have, the bigger the prizes at the end will be, since they're taken from the entry fees. Just a couple of thoughts: I think we should keep a running total of our current expenditures underneath the pic of our tank in our first post. That way it's less confusing for kmitch and I (and anyone else, really) to keep track of everyone's budget. Everytime you purchase something new, just go to the first post on your thread, hit the "edit" button on the bottom of the post, and add the new purchases to the list. I also think that we need to post a FTS on the 17th of every month for the duration of the competition. I'll edit the first post after a bit to reflect this. Link to comment
evilc66 Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Thats a good idea. I so want to get in on this, but my wife will kill me. It will have her favorite coral in it though, so maybe I can weasel it that way Link to comment
got2envy Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 weasel like the wind my friend thats what i did lol Link to comment
scottyreef Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 bribery and flattering comments work the best for me when i want more as my wife calls "fish stuff". Take her out to a nice dinner and liqour her up a bit works every time for me Link to comment
evilc66 Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 I think that if I stay within my budget (not the contest budget) she won't have an issue with it. The bigger issue is where am I going to put it! Now that I think about it, she did say that she wanted her own tank one day.... Hmm.... Link to comment
Prowland Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 I had to go into work early so I wont be able to get my picture up till tomorrow... is this going to be a problem? I get off work at 2:00am Link to comment
Weetabix7 Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 I had to go into work early so I wont be able to get my picture up till tomorrow... is this going to be a problem? I get off work at 2:00am Just start a tank thread and say in the first post that you will have the pic up shortly, or something to that effect. Alrighty folks, I need entry payments from 6 more people. I need tank threads from 8 more people (including Prowland). Git R Done by 12 EST tonight!!! For those that are still somewhat on the fence about this, I'm working on getting more prizes.... Link to comment

glennr1978 Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 I think I'm going to have to bow out of this one afterall. With the move, a new computer, and buying 4 new tires for my wifes' car this morning, I really shouldn't be starting another tank right now. Even if it is only $300. I will likely go ahead with the build, and even stick to the guidelines (I like a challenge), but I just won't be able to start it for atleast a couple of weeks. Sorry guys. I had something really cool planned, you all would've been fighting for second place anyway!!!! Lol, jk. Good luck to everyone. I expect to see some awesome little tanks come out of this!!!

BibleSue Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Think we could make an exception for him? He does live in TX & has been rather busy lately not to mention more out of pocket expenses. Link to comment
Weetabix7 Posted September 17, 2008 Author Share Posted September 17, 2008 Think we could make an exception for him? He does live in TX & has been rather busy lately not to mention more out of pocket expenses. I was thinking that for glennr1978, we could do the same thing we are for nanoty, since he just dealt with a hurricane as well. He could start a couple of weeks late as long as he agrees to the end of the contest being the same for him as everyone else. Link to comment
