NewBostonConst Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Is the judging going to be done by looking at one picture, many pictures, or by looking at a thread? Link to comment

Mustang Boy Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 i just got my dead rock, boy i cant wait till the 25th when i can put water in this thing and get the cycle started Link to comment
TheMasterReefer Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Id really suggest taking a look at the rules in other contests currently running. They have the rules clarified 10X more than you have here and it appears as though they've both had constant issues... Link to comment
Weetabix7 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Here's how we did the thread where everyone voted on the winner.

Weetabix7 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Thanks Weetie! Ya can we steal it? Lol, go ahead and use the same format, I think it worked really well for us. I just had all of the contestants come up with their own summary, and then I took the summary and a few of their fave pics (which they had to submit to me) and posted those together with their monthly FTS. It sounds like a lot of work, but I got it all done in one night. I think the way it was presented did a really good job of giving a pictorial summary of what was accomplished, as well as giving a good written summary of their initial goals and what they were really able to accomplish.

Mustang Boy Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 ok i have a question that just popped into my head. say we start with one light and then down the road in the competition we want to upgrade to a different or better lighting system. do we have to include both lights in our lighting budget or only the final one. also same question for livestock. say we buy some corals/inverts/fish and we either decide to swap them out for something different or by chance they die do we have to keep them on our budget or take them off(i understand if we are having many many deaths that we should be DQ'd or something to prevent alot of deaths) Link to comment

If you want to upgrade your lighting, it all has to be within one budget. Link to comment
