    it should be a month/two month competition or more, so that there is enough time for everyone to get thier ideas in shape and go through a set or two of revisions of their design.

    If there was a competition, maybe worldwide winners could have the option to enter if they cover the shipping costs.

    You say that, but a while ago when new cases were being released, some people's mod idea's started to appear. I am just trying to remember which case and which mod it was! lol!

    So fill me in: Is it a scratch build or existing case mod competition? If it's a scratch build, then I could use one of my designs.

    Thats yet to be decided. I think MNPCtech should decide if there sponsoring the comp, rather than have us dictating to them. Unless they like us to...

    Also i am aware the a major body of the forum is in exam's time here in the UK, so i would rather start this comp closer to the end of febuary or something.

    I'm not a student to anyone here to back up with rough dates... Just to make the comp fair to all, as you students should be revising and not playing with case designs. lol!

    well if we set a deadline for april 1st, there shouldn't be a problem with starting now i think. Almost everyone should be able to free up time on that scale, and besides, i wanna start discussing designs :D
