forza motorsport 4 Forza 4 PotW Week 9 Entry

[TimBud]

:oook:

Well as the theme was originally set, my pic comfortably fits.

But if chaps want to get touchy again like last week, then more consideration/care could be taken (especially regarding specifics) when the theme is decided.

:cool:

[superhyper]

What I meant with the theme was Saab cars so sorry Timbud :(

 

And it the oTW contests it's always the person who set the theme who decides if something that's on the line will get accepted or rejected ;)

[TimBud]

oh common now

 

Frickin unbvelievable! :(

Should have said Saab cars if thats what you wanted. As it was all we were given, was "Saab theme"

 

Not the most considered move ever changing rules half way through.

...Disapointing

Crikey if I'd have known that, I would have rejected every entry but mine a few weeks back

Saab sticker on awesome Baby Benz? :evil:

I've kept my mouth shut but REALLY timbid, ffs mate, why is 'Saab' not specific enough, can you really not think for yourself enough to realize that MAYBE the theme is for Saab made cars only? Then you have a hissy fit when your told nicely that your obviously out of theme entry is not acceptible.

[Paladin Skylark]

Point is, I think 99% of us understood it as Saab cars - and it's up to that weeks picker to choose if the entries are acceptable. Rules are rules boys and girls.

This, actually... it was very, VERY clear that the theme was Saab cars, not stickers. So, don't come here and play stupid or trying to be smartarse by posting a Mercedes.

Please guys and Milli, let's not argue. I agree that Timbud was pushing his luck and I almost allowed him to enter that pic but then I thought that everyone else would stop posting Saabs and start posting Paganis, Lambos and Ferraris with Saab stickers instead, which was not my idea when I chose this theme...

[PolizeiYT]

Yes, we killed it. :lol:

 

As promised, my entry based on this comment.....

Reply to Super and Clarence

 

Of course it was Saab cars. :rolleyes:

But you didn't specify, so I thought outside the box and took advantage of the loophole.

Oh well. :o

 

Can you do me a favour next time, please decide all the rules at the beginning.

[Ryzza5]

If you're going to take those risks I don't see why you get upset when it doesn't pay off. :confused: If anyone else wasn't sure they'd have just asked for clarification.

[TimBud]

Trust me I didn't get upset, despite what a couple above think of me. :p

I was just more disappointed that I did something different that technically fit the theme and a few folk here decided it was better to flame and bitch slap me for it. :rolleyes:

 

Anyway. Second try's a charm. Can't get anymore Saab than Ikea. Ha :)

[Ryzza5]

lol ok - well they would feel a bit miffed if you won just because you were different :p

[TimBud]

Lol, there was no way it would have won anyway... I knew that before I even posted it.

But yeah you're right one or two might have had a 'hissy fit' ;)

[Prophecy]

Grow up tim.

[superhyper]

Prophecy, please stop already. Tim was clever when he tried to use the loophole and as I said in my last post, I found the idea funny and would have let him enter it, but then many other people could/would have done the same and it would have taken the focus out of the Saab cars, which was what I meant with the theme. I wanted this to be a kind of a tribute for Saab, now as it's dead and then people would start entering with pics of Mercs and other cars...

[TimBud]

Its alright Super, me and proph are good now. We just wind each other up sometimes. ;)

My intention with the my Saab themed Merc wasn't to cause stress... but when things 'kick off' I'll jump into defend myself.
