    Anonymous helps to avoid favoritism amongst friends here. I don't know any of you guys personally though so my vote will not be biased.

    Some GREAT reactors here and very original. I'll need a little time to decide on my vote(s)

    Just realized the multiple categories thing... Should we not separate these by category? It would make voting easier...

    can we vote as long as we dont vote for ourselves, seeing as how it is not anonymous?

    There will be prizes for each of the 3 winners in each category.
    If you win in multiple categories though, you will only receive prizes for 1 category and your other prizes will be forfeited to the runners up.
    3 winners in 3 different categories means 9 people will get a prize out of 10 entries. Thats a pretty good ratio. BTW mine (entry #4) was meant to be a movie accurate reactor

    Hrmm, perhaps you should remake the thread and upload all the entries at once or in a collage or something. Also anonymous please.

    Quoted for truth!
    I'm with you, though I'm really digging #2 more. That release mechanism is too cool to ignore! Plus the design is very clean. Well done.

    Agree with Funky Jedi, they both inspired me to start a 'hot-rod' one using spark Plugs and a Oil Filter for the base, I'll be starting a thread on it soon. X3

    I'd hold on the votes until the rest of the pics go up. Not very fair if votes are being cast before some people even get theirs posted.

    Since not all entries have been posted, I wouldn't think the voting would be open yet, and no instructions for voting have been posted either.

    I do believe this is the 1st contest ever to have the maker's name on each entry. Lot of cool work so far, can't wait to see the rest before making a decision.

    Yea people are also only making one vote, I think Darth threw this up to make us stop bugging him .

    In my opinion what should happen is the thread should be deleted, and all at once the entrys should be posted. As far as the anonymous part, he could shuffle the ones already posted inbetween the ones we have not seen.

    But I love the reactors and I am really jealous of some people. Great job guys I cant wait to see the rest.

    Yeah voting hasn't started yet... but I figured I should post the entries I had... The whole idea of posting these anonymously hadn't even crossed my mind. It's kind of late for that though. *facepalm* Sorry about that. The reason it has been taking so long to get these posted is because most people sent me their images as attachments, which means i have to download them to my computer and then re upload them somewhere, and then put the img code into the post. It's not difficult, but when applied to 3 pictures for 13 people each, it takes a while...

    I'll have the other entries up and voting instructions by the end of the day. I'm considering just having one category instead of two now since most of the reactors are custom designs anyways. I would like feedback on this though. I feel like it wont be as fun for the 2 or 3 people that made movie accurate reactors if they end up winning prizes just by default because they had no competition...

    I think it takes special skill to be able to replicate the movie version rather than just using random stuff that looks cool. Since fewer people managed it, they deserve the increased chance of winning. They're also of course in the running for the over-all prize too.

    Only 13 entries? What happened to the other 40 people who signed up for this?

    My thinking is folks will vote based on quality of construction and interesting design/features not so much on whether it is movie accurate or custom. I say have one category for the whole contest.
