Hi all,

How did you approach voting for the town contest?  I'm not looking for what
models you voted for (we'll know the winners soon enough), but for your
approach.  Since we had to cast only three votes overall, rather than voting
within each category, it was really tough.  How do you compare a car made
with under 50 pieces to a layout on the scale of the models in the "Town
Layout" category?  On the sheer "wow" factor, you almost have to put all
your votes in that category, as some of those are really amazing.  On the
other hand, a small vehicle can be just as challenging a build--trying to
come up with an original and good-looking model with a small number of
pieces.  In the end I split my votes.  I tried to vote for both my favorite
large scale and my favorite small scale MOCs.

But all 3 of my votes still went (...) (23 years ago, 1-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.contests)

My approach was to pick my favorite from each category (and that alone was tough), and then to look at the results and see which ones had the most "wow" factor. I won't say what they were, though. But note: even a small vehicle can have "wow" (...) (23 years ago, 2-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.contests)

(Lucky me, I didn't have to choose :-) ) As you probably realise, I (...) (23 years ago, 2-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.contests)
