  16. Sorry guys, but this time I will not vote, not because I did not like the models, but because many of uploaded models have disappeared, and I do not think is fair to vote only on the remaining ones!

    I've seen that some models are missing.. it is also my case.

    JEDI, is it any way to fix this, or we should reupload the missing models

    Thanks and I hope you all understand my point on not voteing this time

    Regards,
    Alex

  17. There is no problem on my side. i can see all the models. i just cant decide who to vote for yet. lots of good ones this time.

    ReplyDelete
  18. I can see 35 models, 12 + 12 + 11 (models/page). Was it actually more than 35?

    1. Yes, there was all the 35 at July 25, but next day when I visited the page to select my candidates for voting only 21 was found.

    The only way that I found is re-uploading the models; the stars and the comments remain.

  20. 3 pts to "Concept 3wheeled sport car" by GoldenSim

    2 pts to "full bedroom" by Sketchmaster Toth (take the tour if you haven't)

    1 pt to "SPECTATOR1 LightSportAircraft" by bronto

    My suggestion for a future competition would be "fire." That is to say, any model that conveys the sense of fire, flame, heat, and/or burning. It would not literally have to BE fire.

  21. Here are my votes, in spite of the ongoing bug (I think that I remember the deleted models):

    Three points go to the full bedroom made by Sketchmaster Tóth;
    It's a really audacious choice and you managed to create something complete and original (not so cliché) which is moreover quite elegant. That's the reason why I decide to give you my three points.

    Two points to go a.j.unknow's Time Machine for its great modelling and details.

    Last point go to cathy.tritschler's Phare du PLATEAU DU FOUR because of its perfect modelling.

    Congrats to those who created cars and planes, they all looked extremely well done but I'm not knowledgeable about these stuffs and cannot really appreciate them, sorry :)

  22. PS: I agree with Patrick and VCN 3D, and Olympic Pavilion would be interesting for an architecture challenge (even though I'm not interested at all in sports).

    JDF also had a great idea (it's been stuck in my mind for months) :
    A small structure to fit bewteen two buildings like this (http://www.archdaily.com/152505/keret-house-centrala/) or of course, a larger one.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Fire sound like fun , if we can play on words like
    "he's on fire" or "it's on fire"...anything with fire.
    but a crossbow could be a great mechanical challenge to i think
    iam not to much into structures , but the Keret house could be fun to

    ReplyDelete
  24. Just to follow up on my "fire" idea. I came up with it sort of in response to the Olympic Pavilion idea. I personally have no interest in that, but that concept could be encapsulated into a larger theme. Taking a queue from the Olympic Torch and Flame ....

  25. My model uploaded in time for the challenge has a problem : it is impossible to dowload it.

    I just uploaded the same model but I didn't know the ID model so another model was created. Would you be kind enough JediCharles to include this new model in the challenge so I could delete the first wrong model ?

  26. I'm talking about Jellfish house....

  27. Thanks for alerting me to the problem. Unfortunately we have no control over the functionality of the 3D Warehouse. I have checked the models on a daily basis and each time I have found the 35 models. It is likely a problem with a particular server as Google uses multiple servers. I can extend the deadline for the challenge to wait for the problems to clear but doing so would invalidate the current votes. I have to be fair to everyone and it may be only fair to restart the vote. I can do that if everyone is in agreement.

    ReplyDelete
  28. I went to investigate the problem and I just found in the official 3D Warehouse Forum that there was am "indexing issue" that came up but it has now been fixed as of 11:00AM Mountain Time. No models were lost however some could not be viewed.

    @Cathy,
    Yes, your second upload of the same model still counts. You may delete the first one.

    @Sketchmaster,
    Can you see all 35 now?

    I think it would be best to restart the vote but I will have to notify everyone to re-vote. Give me some time to think about the best way to do it.

    Vote Restart:
    Due to an unforeseen problem with the 3D Warehouse, that which has been acknowledged by Google, Voting for Challenge #148 - 5th Anniversary must start over. The problem is now fixed, however. to insure that everyone's model is included in the vote the previous votes must be set aside. We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your understanding.

    Let's re-start the voting!

    You may make 3 votes.
    - your First choice is worth 3 points,
    - your Second worth 2 points,
    - your Third worth 1 point,
    You may also make a comment, if you wish, on why you chose each model.

    If you have already voted, please take a moment to vote again taking into account for all 35 models.

    Good luck!

  37. I have removed my models because people are voting for previously made models, when the rules state must be original. you cant play fair so im not playing.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Thanks for the Olympics related suggestions. It was a very good idea and I was willing to go with it, however, after some thought I have determined that it would not be wise from a legal standpoint to use any trademarks of the International Olympic Committee. Even calling it "the games" would be considered questionable. The IOC is well known to aggressively defend their intellectual property rights and that is the reason why.

  39. @Rev. Ink,
    This is a self policing challenge so if you feel someone has violated the rules then bring those specific violations to my attention. If they have violated the rules then they will be disqualified.
