Welcome to the summer mod-off. You have a month to mod whatever console you want to, and the best one wins the prizes. So warm up your irons, break out the solder, and most of all, have fun! Sign up bellow and tell us your thoughts.

The prizes are:

- A working second hand PSP Slim.
- One item from the acidmods merchandise shop (LINK)
- $25 ThinkGeek.com Gift certificate
- 3 PSP sound reactive LED mod Boards

Here is the set of rules

1. Console most be stock. All previous mods (if any) Most be removed prior to the mod off. a picture with the date of your first entry post in it of the un-modded console must be posted.

2. Mod off starts on Saturday 15th August and ends on the 14th of september. All modded consoles must be finished by the 14th or they will NOT be counted unless there is a reasonable excuse for lateness.

3. All consoles will be reviewed by a panel of three unbiased judges.

4. Mods that you have developed yourself can be marked with *NEW MOD*. New mods will score more points.

5. Functionality mods will score more than aesthetic mods. Don't just leave the aesthetic mods though, these do still earn points.

Any questions feel free to drop me a PM.

So that everyone knows H-Sauce has my permission to post this and since he is not a judge also has my permission to enter it - i just needed someone to come up with the rules and regulations.

More than one entry allowed?

I have a few projects i started a couple days ago.

H-Sauce · « **Reply #3 on:** August 13, 2009, 03:42:57 PM »

2 entries per person.

H-Sauce · « **Reply #5 on:** August 13, 2009, 03:48:08 PM »

I'm afraid You will need to remove what you have already done to it for it to be a legit entry.

4dP · « **Reply #6 on:** August 13, 2009, 03:50:25 PM »

Assassin_Bean · « **Reply #15 on:** August 13, 2009, 06:32:13 PM »

Are only consoles eligible for entry, or can other gaming accessories be modded and entered as well?

GhoSt · « **Reply #16 on:** August 13, 2009, 09:44:52 PM »

If I wanted to enter my xbox 360 desktop. Could I disasemble the little progress I have made and start again for the mod off?

4dP · « **Reply #17 on:** August 13, 2009, 10:33:34 PM »

We should have everyone use twitter to post their daily/weekly logs so it can be easier. then we can just post a link on our thread to our twitter profiles. if enough people do that every message would use some sort of hash tag like #AcidmodsModOff

DubbleDutch · « **Reply #18 on:** August 13, 2009, 11:59:09 PM »

I don't use twitter, so that's going to be a problem

alman101 · « **Reply #19 on:** August 14, 2009, 12:23:27 AM »

I'm in, made a topic. [PS3][alman101] PulseVU 2X chip and LEDs.

Looks like I'm the lonely Playstation3 modder in the contest so far.

GhoSt: Yes, you can do that.

Assassin_Bean: I'm sorry, consoles only.

kenoman · « **Reply #22 on:** August 14, 2009, 02:37:33 PM »

ryan0 · « **Reply #23 on:** August 15, 2009, 05:45:58 AM »

a banner on the site linking people to the mod off thread would be awesome!

Can I enter an Xbox 360 that I just finished a week ago? I have a couple pictures of the modding process and can record a final video of the product. Also, I have a PSP Slim that all I have done is swap the LEDs and placed LEDs in the trigger can I enter this too?

H-Sauce · « **Reply #25 on:** August 16, 2009, 12:38:12 AM »

Nope, sorry, you need to start with them stock.
