2018 Group Build Poll
« on: January 01, 2018, 03:24:46 AM »
Ok folks,  time to vote on which Group Builds you would like to see in 2018.  I have put up all the suggestions proposed in the last 12mths.  See here for more info on each - starting at about Reply#290.  Also feel free to ask.

Poll will run for 3wks.  Each member gets 5 votes and you are able to change your mind if you so desire (e.g. to help whittle down the results if you se your preferred is not going anywhere).  Campaigning to get your favourites picked is allowed.

Plan is to have the first new GB start no later than 1st Feb 2018.
All hail the God of Frustration!!!

Just thinking of what would happen if neither got up but their combined vote would have got one of them up.

I will decide (in conjunction with the other moderators) at the time should that be the case.

Allies '46 looking like a sure thing.
Browsed stash and came up with a scale-o-rama plan.
Kits are set aside.

Happens to also qualify for Tri GB (kits of three model companies 1/3) which accommodates land, sea, air, space.....

How about we put the non voters in "The Cooler" for 30 days which is my back deck @ -16 degrees C.
Work in progress ::

I am giving up listing them. They all end up on the shelf of procrastination anyways.

It is possible that Anachronistic GB or Dassault GB or MiG GB (all ideas were mine) are chosen. In that case I will be volunteer to moderate one or two of them. :smiley: ;) 8)

After years or Luft'46 promo by model companies, books, etc....  Getting a top vote response for Allies '46 is most interesting !
Am sure BTS bunch will do this good.

Oh dear...at this stage we may need to do a second round of voting to sort out the top 5 or so...

If anyone who has posted a vote that is not going to win (like I have multiple times), and they want to adjust their vote now is the time to do it.  You can change your votes in the poll.

That's the way The Airfix Tribute Forum run their GB polls Greg, IIRC it runs to three separate polls to whittle it down.  It sorts out the chaff so to speak.
