Work in Progress runs them, as does Grey_Death here from time to time.

If you win here, you get a Dakka Painting Challenge Winner animation for you to put in your sig and I think a set of Dakka Dice(if available).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229664/556890.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229664/556890.page GMT Contests? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229664/556907.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229664/556907.page GMT Contests?

How'd it go?

I think it would be kinda fun, although obviously the actual gaming aspects of the concept wouldn't be applicable. I was thinking more a points system, declare what units your doing each month, lose points for missing a deadline gain them for quality, quantity, effort etc.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229664/556910.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229664/556910.page GMT Contests?

IIRC, it was closer to a P&M Blog. The concept was like the original Tale of Four Gamers from WD 19X, it was a finance based system. You had $100 in the first month, then $50 a month thereafter to buy models & bitz (bitz box pieces, rulebooks and paints were exempt from the budget) and the idea was to have a tournament sized army (1850 points back then) fieldable and painted and win at least 1 battle after the six-month duration was done.

Not sure if it ever got finished before real life pulled me away from GW & dakkadakka for a few years.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229664/557141.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229664/557141.page GMT
