Nice job on the car MRL. 22 entries and just 3 hours left! Mr. Train and I have re-structured how we will be voting. The number of winners will be determined by the number of entries as follows: 1-15 entries - 1st place only - 1 vote per person 16-25 entries- 1st place and 2nd place - 2 votes per person 26-35 entries- 1st, 2nd and 3rd places - 3 votes per person Ect. ect. Right now we're at 2 votes 2 winners. If we can get 4 more entries we'll get 3 votes and 3 winners. That should make judging a bit easier, so let your friends know. 3 hours left!

Just adding a picture so we can get to the 3 and 3 level! There are so many good pictures for this contest, I could never pick just one (or two)! ATSF grain train pulling up the 2.5% grade to Timbercreek on the Flagstaff Model Railroad Club's Mountain Pacific Lines. -Mike
2 more.. just 2 more! Feels like it's 2 minutes left in the 4th quarter and we just need 2 points to win and we we just got the ball.. And HIKE!
...fumble. :-( Submissions are now closed. This is going to be some intense judging. I'll be back around 4 to post the poll.
What poll? Do we also vote on this? Sorry, running around like crazy today getting the house "staged."
Well, it took me 30 minutes to post that poll. It is HUGE!! 24 entries! I guess it's good we didn't get those last two entries, because 25 is the max poll options. So here's the deal. Everyone is allowed to select their Favorite 2 (TWO) images. The two images with the most votes will be our winners. If there is a 2 way tie on first place, we'll leave it there and each will be the winner. If there is a tie on 2nd place or more than a 2 way tie on first, we'll have to have a tie breaker. *Now there is a loophole that allows you to select more than 2 options. For the benefit of everyone, please don't. Though the poll is anonymous, we can see how many people voted. If the number of votes is more than twice the voters, an admin can then check server logs to find who is being dis-honest. If this happens, the culprits votes and entry will be removed from the poll. * Vote for your favorite 2 pictures!
11 voters and only 19 votes. Guess some people didn't vote two times? Well it was a hard choice for me, came down to 4 pictures. I couldn't figure out which 2. Musta clicked on them at least 10 minutes. But I narrowed it down. This is a great contest!! -Mike
Yes, we're going to need the most votes ever for this poll to be settled. **A note on selecting your TWO images. If you select 1, then submit.. that forfeits your ability to select your other choice. Hopefully this is not the reason we're missing 3 votes, but that those 3 declined their second choice. If you did mess up, and really wanted to get your second vote please send me a PM and I'll see if we can figure something out.
Santa will be checking his list, checking it twice!!!!!!! :we2-policeman: :we2-policeman: :we2-policeman: :we2-policeman:
38 voters 65 votes. We're down 11 votes -1 accident which I have been contacted about and will make up for when I vote. First place has a pretty good lead, but still several contenders for 2nd place. With 38 voters already, we might have run our course. Any dormant voters, now is your chance to make your votes really count!
One day left and we have a tie on 2nd place. Anyone can vote so if you have not voted, we sure need you to. If this ends up in a tie, we'll have a tie-breaker poll, which will last for 1 day, between only those immediately tied for 2nd place.
