We're gonna have to do something to up the number of voters, otherwise we may end up with a 3 way tie at 3 votes each...

Just out of curiosity: any idea when the poll will be up? ^_^

Mutate: Or is it up already with a little visibility issue, as in only the mods can see it? I didn't really understand what Bounty was saying, but that might explain...

I will give one small further tease, and mention that even aside from the exceptional quality, we received 8 entries for this competition, which is the most that any regular UnderEmpire Painting Competition has received since the September-October 2010 competition with the category of Skaven War Machine, held the very month I joined the UnderEmpire as a lowly Skavenslave, which had 9 entries.

It's not up ye that I know of Jona. I was refering to some of the competitions from last year, April I think, we had a 3 way dead heat until the last hour or so. But normally we get strictly less than 20 votes for a painting competition, and if we have 7 entries this time...

Bounty, I hadn't announced this before, but last month I compiled every regular painting competition in the history of the UnderEmpire into an Excel spreadsheet. The only year in which the painting competitions ever averaged fewer than 20 votes was 2011, where we had an average of 18.5 votes.

In 2012, we averaged 22.83 votes per competition, and that's factoring in the one time we went below 20 votes last year, the November-December 2012 competition, The Scenic Imperative, which had matched the all-time low of 12 votes. (Curiously enough, the first time a competition got 12 votes, it was for the November-December 2009 competition, with an Open category, where 7 members entered, but only 12 voted. I still haven't figured that one out.)

Our competition held at this time last year, M.Y.O.B.S.B.(Make Your Own Battle Standard Bearer) had 32 votes (the most since March-April 2010), which is a good sign. Only once has a competition held in February received fewer than 20 votes, and that was in 2010, immediately preceding the last high vote mark.

That said, I have no idea how this competition is going to go. But I am keeping my spreadsheet current....

Whether or not a lot of people vote, I would say this competition is a success. There are some really great models in there!
I didn't think long enough before voting, though. Thought a model was an exceptionally clean conversion while it actually seems to be straight out of the box. :D
