Here is the reasoning for my voting...

I am putting this here so you can understand how some people think when it comes to these things.
I am a random type of person, Ill look at a focal point and go from there, if i dont find one then youre SOL...

I will back any comment that i make here, however i believe that everone did a really nice job. You need to remember that my comments are based on my personal opinion and of course people are going to disagree, or mention things that i didnt see or thought i saw but didnt... this is life, DEAL WITH IT!

To anyone that didnt finish, I FEEL FOR YOU ALL!!!

* I have a strong feeling that this system will DIE... YLOD anyone?

TOTAL POINTS:

74037211-A - PSP - Vocaloid

100

+ 5 - Lots of design work gone into this psp
+ 2 - Theme carrying into software (could have found an actual theme that works for XMB)
+ 5 - Overall look

TOTAL POINTS:
111



44883206-A - PSP - Camo/Green LED

- 4 - use of lots of magnet wire (I dont like it, have seen issues with items that get lots of motion, useful if used in the right place though)
- 2 - used "Like a G6" in video
+ 7 - detail of video showing modified areas
+ 9 - LED's are hooked up to match random effect
- 3 - trim is not a shade of the camo that the case is (possibly due to hard to find color)

TOTAL POINTS:
110


00127395 - PSP - UFC

100

+ 7 - Doing mod without spending lots of money

44883206-B - NDS - SKIN / LED's

100

-15 used a skin (in a skilled mod-off competition)
+3 hooked up the LED's direct to battery and ensured that the switch wasn't protruding out of the case

TOTAL POINTS:
88



55937401 - XBOX360 - DeathF$@*

100

+ 5 - Keeping theme
+ 4 - Modded HDD Thingy
+ 8 - Airbrush Parts.
- 40 - I dont see the XBOX playing games, or running in the "Final Video" (I believe that this is a requirement)

TOTAL POINTS:
77



To all the people that completed multiple mods: If you spent the time on an individual mod, it would have brought you up in the list...

*** I grade PSP's different as i have done MANY of them.
*** I grade different on a per mod basis, the order in which i watch the mods may affect the way i grade them also.

EDIT* Fixed so that they are in order now.

thanks [HoP] i'm glad you think i will fall in the top 3 and i agree with allot of your statements cept the ylod one as this system runs cooler now then it did b4... after a 4 hour solid gaming the projector is still only between 25-30oC but i do understand why you took points for that and i never did clear that up in the vids or in my work log

Ha ... I feel like on AcidMod's got talent.

So I chose 77302794.
The whole adding of parts that were never meant to be used with the console is totally legit. You good have done with a better color scheme though. Blue couldn't go wrong but this blue is wrong I think. Other than that ... A+.

My second, third and fourth should be:
2. 44730173 (nice Led mod on the PS3 there. And I love the idea of measuring temperature. A must have)
3. 74037211 B  (Really detailed Kingdom theme. Love it.)
4. 85730168 (I just love mine water Chilled.)

Other than that, really truly nice job there. To all of you !

Hop, I disagree the use of a vinyl printer is bad because thats more money put into the mod which takes a bit more effort in the long run. Maybe the graphics are not hand crafted but they look clean and are still drawn up in some way. For me thats a plus.

I voted but not telling who i voted for. :D

FOOKz you blind....  "- 1 - Use of a vinyl printer (only because i dont have one)"

i only subtracted points cause i dont have one, i have an odd way of rating things, that is why i posted my ratings... people could get a laugh and see how "some" people think.

if we were to have a mod-off where you can use only non electric tools, that would be interesting...



I thought the whole point of a hidden poll was to keep your votes confidential :S
identities are to remain confidential, I don't feel bad for posting my voting scheme... and i believe that by understanding how i voted you will see how some people think.



Everyone in the mod-off did a super great job. Some people spent lots of money, some little. Some spent lots of time and made new things, some re-vamped things from the past. Everyone put forth TONS of effort in this and I feel that everyone deserves a round of applause.

To show my gratitude, I will give the people in 2nd and 3rd place something for free. It will be a real life item. I can ship it to an administrator if they don't want to give me an address to ship it to. (As long as your country allows the things that i have in mind to ship) I just need to see what i have and go from there. I guarantee that it will be useful for your modding experience.


This will be done after the voting is over obviously.

I honestly have not paid any attention to what people where building. I have no clue who built what. I tried to keep it that way. My vote was for the liquid cooled box.
My rating were based off of a couple things.
1 degree of difficulty. and the amount of planning that had to go into a mod.
2 function vs form. I like function before form personally. Does the mod add anything to the machine, then I look at the ascetics .
3 over all theme.
4 creativity. Did you do something different. 
Truthfully I would have voted for the blue Ps3 if 1 the av cable was internalized. 2 A different paint scheme. It kinda reminded me of this denali thats around here. Its all pimped out beautiful truck, but its that same blue and it makes it look like a toy truck or something.
Regardless of who wins you all did an awesome job. The effort shows in every ones mod.

4 creativity

I agree with this, though some of the case mods were pretty intense and a some of the air brushing was amazing even if stencils were used.  I def had a hard time between my top 3 choices and I wish I could have voted for top 3.

Hats off to everyone who participated, they were all done very well cheers :tup:
