We have modified rule 4 with 4a.
I have added more to the rolling contest (locomotives, etc.)
What was originally Locomotives only is now more inclusive.October: In late August we will request entries and accept submissions through September 10 followed by a poll for the October display. This will be specifically for all that rolls on wheels. This includes: Locomotives, trains, traction engines, rollers, trucks, cars, portables ..... if it rolls on wheels, power source optional, we want to see it!
Rules as of now....This is for your enjoyment and shall be fun.
1. There will be 1 entry per person per month allowed.
2. You must own the engine submitted.
3. You must be the copyright holder of the photograph submitted or have permission to use it if taken by a friend or family member. In plain English, we'd like your picture of your engine.
4. If you are the lucky winner, please don't enter again for the next two months.
4a. If your entry was selected in the drawing and was shown for the vote, but did not win, please do not re-enter that same photo/engine for at least two months, but please do feel free to enter another engine in time for the next drawing.
5. *Entries will be E-MAILED to Gil - Red Ryder <officeofsteam@optimum.net>
by the date and time stated in the monthly invitation thread.
6. If there is ever a tie, I will try to post both pictures.
If that doesn't work we can flip a coin.
7. A little shameless self promotion is fine as long as it remains fun.
8. Lobbying on behalf of a fellow member is also welcome.
9. Have fun...!!!
10. If you didn't see rule #9.....Have fun..!
Finally... If any of you have any suggestions please share them.
While they may not all be implemented, they will all be heard.
* For now, Re: Entry submission:
Please use this e-mail: Red Ryder <officeofsteam@optimum.net>
I will put up a new post requesting entries each month.
After the entry time is finished, 5 names will be drawn from a hat by Mrs RedRyder or me.
This will be filmed and a short video published each month to show the 5 finalists.
The poll will go up with a day or two of the drawing (I'll do my best and might need help!)
Ideally the poll will be open for at least 2 weeks and maybe a bit longer.
Thanks to Stoker who helped me with some wordsmithing with 4a.
