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.

I have to agree, this was really tough... I had originally voted for 3 of
what I felt were the most amazing models but I went back and looked and
realised I had picked the biggest, too, so went and reviewed. But all 3 of
my votes still went for "larger" models.

Maybe one vote per category?? One vote per category plus N votes to spend as
you choose (so small categories don't get biased toward the overall
winner??) I dunno.

ISCC voting was very hard, it took a long time to rate all the entries (and
i confess, I ran out of time before reviewing ALL of them)...
