I'm pleased to report that no teddy's were harmed in the 5 minutes of "annoyance" that followed the reading of this thread.
My throat is recovering, the mess has been cleared up and SWTSMBO has booked me on an anger management course .......
I'm now officially sulking.

Something I've just realised!!! Not a single snowy pic :(
-
Not being funny, considering mine didnt get picked lol but why are we having a tie breaker when there are 2 pics of the same car in the same location on the shortlist.....???
::) :y :y :y
-

Why not vote on the snowy ones for the Calendar cover, or isnt there to be a cover.
Or put the one of all the Migs togther on the front and vote for a snowy pic, or 2 of the tie breakers if there is annother tie break.
Just while thinking out loudwill there be advertisising for the forum and the shop on the calender, whether it be the front cover or all pages.

Thought about that (the one with the jet in bothpics.)
-
So what would you suggest? We drop the duplicates (as there are 2 cars in twice)?

::) :y :y :y
you Kinda got a point but I suppose we gotta go with the vote, I dunno. :-/
I'm pleased and sad at the same time, One of mine got through but the one I thought would do well, didn't!! :'(
-

Fair point really,

Yes, just working on the wording for them now.
-
Looks great and obviously has been a lot of work :y
You'll never please everyone ;D
FANTASTIC WORK :y :y :y :y
-

Fair point really,
The voting has been open for over 2 weeks and as stated the top 19 (well 18 until the tie breaker is decided tomorrow) have made it in. So IMHO the choice was made by everyone democratically over a long enough time frame so I don't want to be seen to be over-riding this by changing things. Surely the gap between the pics will enough for you to forget you've seen it before, allbeit from a different angle/different background. 8-)
-
Its not for me to decide what to do, but just seems a little unfair.....???
Great pics and well done to all who have made it in...
Look forward to getting my hands on the calendar when its ready
:y
-

You do know that we will all be out with cam's this year now trying to get a good shot in the snow for the next one and then we will only have pic's in the snow. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Entwood sorry yours did'nt make it mate.

Dont mean to funny guys but this fella has done all the leg work so to speak and sorted out what needs to be done and we did all vote so........
-
Yep, fair enough, it was merely an observation.....
:y
-
I think that any "complaints" :) about 2 shots of the same car being in should have been voiced some while back.... the votes have been cast .. and thats the end of it .. for this year.
Perhaps for future ones then there should only be one shot of each car in the vote off ??? ... but thats another argument story ... :)

I agree and remember fellas we tryed to get one off the ground lasy year and it was all over the place now that we have made a start we can iron things out for the next one if there are any issues like said two shots etc etc..
Sorry just re-read this and should say now Lee (welung)has made a start. :-[ :-[

Yes, but they will only be on show for 1 month ;D ;D ;D
-
lol, true..
Since my old goldie made it, i shall frame that month and hang above the actual calendar ::)
-

Not exactly snowy, and I know ive missed this years calendar (forgot about it, then ended up running round like a blue arsed fly!) - but for the year after this would have done for xmas maybe!

Also, Ive got a full quality pic of Rich's Mig doing the donut at rufforth... Give me a shout if you want it mate.
-
voted for the car i think is best :-X. some good shots you have for the calender. will be nice to see the finished product. :y
-
When Daz and I went through the pages and pages of pics to shortlist the 66 we skipped over a lot of duplicates because of this exact reason. Maybe next time it will have to be strictly 1 shot per car on the shortlist.
-
well done for all your hard work. i would like a calender but dont have paypal,will there be other payment options, ie postal order or cheque? :y

You'll have to ask TB as they will be sold through the shop. I'm sure something can be arranged ;)

Or do a vote stricly on all the shots of the car to find the favoured one that members want to see.
Also there will allways be the situation where if 18 pics are voted on for a calendar starting in january, then what happens if the one with snow on gets th place making it August, and the one with a christmas tree gets 4th place making it April.
Obviously there has to be a consideration for the 4 seans we (Should) have.
It's a difficult job and appreciated by all, but there will be time's where decisions will have to be made as an after thought

The order they appear isn't decided by the votes so a snowy or xmas tree pic won't appear in a summer month. I'm sure we (the royal we that is) will take all of the comments on board ready for the next run of calendars. As the old saying goes 'you can't please all of the people all of the time'

my tuppence, take the finished order in the very unlikely event of an argument as rules are rules and thats that. But if those with duplicates dont mind, perhaps the duplicates with the least votes could be dropped, so others can have a go, so to speak...?
Would be nice if that could happen.....but on the other hand, the duplictes have been voted better pics. Ah who am i kidding, mines in! Which is a suprise, thanks to my fans.;D
So have i got to find and email off the original pic? May have a problem there.... :-[

I thought original pics had to be in for voting.
If not then yer FIRED and VOIDED. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D :-/
(only joking)
Let's add a poll and and eveyone vote on it. ::) ;D ;D ;D ;D :y :y
-
Many folk put alot of work into the forum, stickers, shirts, tax disc holders, spanner work, parts & more. What with the meetings where members show off thier pride & joys i think group shots should be allowed next year as it shows the fun we have at meets, & the friends we make (& argue with)! It's enough the Beastie made it to the last knockings, i'm happy with that. 8-)
I'll still order two calenders as i voted for most of the winning pics so will enjoy seeing them every day in print. :y

Fired? Again? Thats the 3rd times this year.(snigger) dont worry, i'm used to it, my boss is coming round to my way of thinking- he's re hired me twice. ;D
-
Congratulations to everyone whose pictures made it to the calendar (myself included) ;) :y
For those whose pictures didn't make it, don't worry, there will be more opportunities coming your way (to show off your mig ;) )
Nice job on this to the Calendar Team :y :y :y
And last but not least, Big Thanks to all who voted for picture (picture 61). Really appreciate it :y
-
And the tie breaker winner and 19th calendar entry is.....
(http://calendar.omegaowners.com/014.jpg)
Well done Guy :y
-
Wow! Im chuffed & proud. Not taking anything forgranted though, it was a close result & up against some tough competiton
Thanks all & big love to Rich for taking & entering the pic, Guy.
-
Hehe, I did enter it but unfortunatly I can't take credit for taking the pic as Ian took it on his SLR.
I can't even take credit for my own car pic as Ian took that too.
Good Job Ian :y
-
Well done to every one who made it onto the calender.
Whether mine made it or not, i was going to buy one, but because it made it, i'm going to buy 3.
Will they be ready for christmas presents?? :y

Production details will follow shortly, I'm trying to arrange a fast turnaround on them ;)
-
Thanks to everyone for voting for my pics, as for some cars being in twice, which includes mine, probably better to only have one per car for voting, give other members a chance of getting on he calendar :y
-
agreed Mike !

Hehe.. I have my uses I guess every now and then ;D
Pitty I didnt get round to posting up any photos of my own Mig this year, forgot all about it TBH ;D :'(
Welung666...
I'm not sure what quality images you have for Rich's and Guys MV6's. Will send you a PM with a link to the original full quality pics later this eve :y
-
Pm Sent..
-
Pm Sent..
Replied ;) :y
-
I'm undecided on whether to allow more than one pic per car, everyone only gets one vote per pic regardless but maybe one pic of each car is easier for those organizing.
The other angle is 2 cars in one pic. At the last Yorkmeet there was a pic of mine & Rich's MV6's together in a similar shot & it worked. (can someone find & post it as an example?)
Just a thought, Guy. :y
-
I'm sorry, but i know everyone has a comment to make, but surely it should have been decided before the vote?
Not after, when all the pics have been chosen, and everything is in motion to get them printed.
Trying not to rant, but maybe it should be a rule for next year?
