Apperantly we must stop this contest at the request of BCPneumatics. He also must have a copyright to the idear' of a spud gun contest. I guess the SpudTech contest was started prior to SpudFiles. So the furthering of this contest is at the mercy of BCPneumatics. I guess I copy him to much. Even though my agreement to formulate and govern such a contest was made at the request of you, the members. Just keeping everyone informed.
The overall desicion should be made by PCGUY and PCGUY alone. Last time I looked it did say SpudFiles and not BCPneumatics. So why do you have to listen to him? He can do one on BC and we can do one on here.

The contest is still going on. This is just to expose the bullsh*t I run into everyday that goes un-noticed. As I said I supposidly copy BC to much, and when asked to clarify I get 'nothing'. Refer to the offical thread to see what sparked our IM convo.

When I thoug of the idea way back when, BC was not doing it, but then we all started talking about it so I think he is "copying" us.

I think he misunderstood the "competition"

He thinks his competition is competing with this one

We're all in this for the fun aren't we??

I'd enter my cannon, but it's a piece of crap. I mean, it works- and is VERY functional, but it looks crappy with a ball valve. Maybe with an awesome paintjob...


Nah. Well. I'm building another soon. We'll see how that goes.

So far, all of the cannons submitted have been pneumatics... looks like whoever submits a cannon in the hybrid/combustion area will automatically win :lol:

offtopic, but spudstuff had 666 posts exactly when he said "ohhhh 1000 posts"...maybe a sign?
