just a friendly note guys ,when the contest starts and its time to make your journals, start your journals in the "2012 nano contest" forumn and not the general journals forumn.

here is a link to the correct forumn in which to start your jornals.

http://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=233

if you are unsure where to start your journal click the link and it will take you to the appropriate sub forumn or simply pm me and i will help you

journals should not be started untill oct1, for fairness sakes(unless you want people stealing your ideas like me lol )

cheers gang!!

haha no worries , i thought about it and to have everyone "have" to start their journals on the first is pushy so now people have a bit of flexibility on their journals


goodluck:P

The flexibility is important: especially for those who have loads of DIYs to document. It is much easier to document things as they're being done, versus trying to remember what was done a month after the fact.

its been decided to stop the numbers at 25 , reason being we have some prizes lined up and we dont the judges going through 50 x 6mth long journals


i think 25 is a reasonable number, far more than previous years and it will be easier to manage the contest and for the judges to follow along.


i do realize it would be nice to have an unlimited amount of entries , and origionally that was my plan but ive thought long and hard aout it , and really i hope this becomes a yearly contest, and so this year ill stop at 25 contestants and we will learn from this years contest about what or not what to do for nex year.


i apologize in advance to anyone who was undecided or never seen the contest signup thread.


theres always next year, and hopefully next year it will be bigger and ill have more back up, right now im doing this all myself in the way of organizing,finding prizes,rules,pm's etc etc


cheers
