Hey i thought maybe you could introduce a system where some of the 2nd placed after the first round could get into the next round. As far as i remember only the 1st were able to advance so far. Sometimes two really great ships are in the same set.

So lets say with 30 ships we have 6sets x 5ships. So after the first round we have 6 winners for the semi finals. Now we could add a losers bracket voting for the 6 2nd placed. Two out of those get into the semi finaly as well. Then we would have 8 in the semis with 4 in each set. 1st and 2nd of those get into the final so we have 4 ships in the finals.


(Oops we already know there are 43 ships, but i guess the system works for those numbers as well)

Hey,

In... 2008 we had a semi final (73 entries)...
In the final we had less voters then in the heats...

Also,
the ship category could be big enough to do it (I made 8 heats) but the fleet category is too small. So when the fleets are in the final the ships are in the semi.....

or....

Heats Ships : voting time 10 days
Semis Ships : voting time 10 days

Heats fleets : voting time 20 days

Both Finals: voting time : 15 days

?

That'll work or is 10 days too short?

Oh ok id didnt remember that there werent even semi finals ;-) We dont need them.

My main point was not to get semi finals but to give the best 2nd placed ships a chance to get into the final. (maybe you could avoid a 2nd voting round for the best 2nd placed by simply taking the 1-3 2nd placed with the most votes into the finals).

Ya well,

8 heats means that'll we have 8 entries in the final. Enough for me. Perhaps I could fill it up to 10?


I could do so with the fleets though.

Yes 10 seems a bit much at the first glance.

But i think you could do it. After all the voters have a hard decition anyway, so 8 or 10 isnt that much of a difference. I think it yould be fair if the two best 2nd placed come into the final as well.

Some small tidbits with the ship only pics. But the gallery overview is complete, so all heats are uploaded.

Some linking to be sorted and we'll be on!

NO VOTING YET, thus start looking really if the polls are up. ;)

5A and DA do not seem to link to the larger pics.  I did not test all the entries, just some.  Most worked.

And... some really nice work in there!

Caine:  Looking forward to your entries, your tau fleet last year was beautiful! 
The problem with having "wild card" berths into the final is that the ship with the fewer amount of votes should lose again.  Nothing has changed with the entries, so it would be odd for the 2nd place ship to overtake the 1st place ship in the final.  On the other hand, I agree that 8 choices vs. 10 is not a big difference.  What about having the judges pick one more entry into the final out of all the runners up in the first round?  This would allow a runner up to enter the final if they were unlucky to be in a "group of death" heat.
Personally, I'm happy with the rules as they are.  I'm most against anything that would require extra rounds of voting, or anything that prolongs the competition.

Entry 2D is called "Harbringer of Doom". Will it get marked down for misspelling 'harbinger'?  :-\

Any objections to this?
