SPRING MOD OFF discussion
« on: March 10, 2010, 06:59:01 AM »
ok so its been a few months since the last mod off which is unexceptable. I have just been swamped with my work and the new changes to AM staff aswell as forum board changes. That has just about settled down. and its time to refocus on the member base (after all thats what this site is realy about)

need some ideas. I have a sponcer or two in mind that may provide prizes as a publicity deal through the site, and will post more on that if and when we iron it out. as for now I am looking at $100 in cash prizes ($50 to the winner, $30 2nd and $20 3rd) along with a rapid fire chip of your choice for system of your choice.

so if anyone has some ideas, please post them up for discussion.

it looks like everyone is leaning towards a console mod off. if thats the case we will up the prize structure.

I know robin requested tipsters last week, did anyone sign up? if so please start tipping sites. i plan to lay out all guidelines, rules and prizes by the end of the weekend. is a 45 day event long enough? or is that too long? we did 30 on the controller, and a few did not have time to finish.

Between 30 and 45 days is a reasonable margin to complete a console mod.

Since the last one was a controller mod off, which was 30 days, a console mod in essence more complicated than a controller so 45 days sounds good to me.

all guidelines will be slated this weekend and the mod off will start soon next week and run 45 days through the end of april.

this will be a console mod off. meaning if it plays a game and is modable, it will be allowed to compete, this means, xbox, 360, ps 1 2 or 3, psp 1000-3000, psp go, pc, ds, dsi. etc ( would like to see a modded atari lol but thats just me)

sky is the limit.

I cant give the start date yet. as the first rule of AM mod offs is that a pic must be taken with the start date and name wrote on something in the picture.

I can tell you it will be soon, next week sometime. heck if you know me I am liable to open it tomorrow, so stay tuned.
