Aah, things are starting to get going, my entries will have to wait till the announcement for Xtended on the 14th I'm afraid, then I should have a few, will be hard to pick though.

If this maintains it's weekly status, then the winner each week will be the site STOW (as soon as the site security lets me change it that is!)

It just seems more fair if we have one entry per person (+per category).

weekly? I don’t think we can turn around in a week yet

maybe later on...

ANNOUNCEMENT

Player is a bit busy right now, which puts me in charge (obviously that's a dictatorship)

I'd like to get few more interesting screen shots first, and then I think we can start judging.

Which brings me to the next point - we need unbiased judges

It's probably ok if judges have entries too - I'll just not allow them to vote for theirs...
Obviously there should be more regular contestants than judges

anyway, it's all kinda impromptu...

so PM / message me

That will be interesting if one of mine wins, I'm assuming that doesn't count for modded shots?

not sure what you mean... screenshot of a modded game/ship?
those are ok - I see that we had already talked about it...
you'd probably will just need to add a little comment saying if it's a vanilla game or not...

I'm just saying its unlikely Egosoft wants pictures of a modded game as the Screen Shot of the Week.

After all those beautiful shots?

It's probably better to hide my ships in smoke.

Combat-Argon Titan(Argon Templar) Ambushed in Elena's Fortune by 2 Kha'ak Clusters

Extra-The Templar's Sword
Why he got the name Argon Templar-The Ship is the hilt the BHEPT's are the guard and the Partical cannons is the blade.

There are some good screenshots here

Syklon · Post by **Syklon** » Tue, 20. Feb 07, 05:34

So when's deadline? I find nothing motivates people to get stuff in like a deadline, plus, sooner this first one comes to a close sooner we can start the next one.

fiksal · Post by **fiksal** » Tue, 20. Feb 07, 18:18

ok, deadline it is then,
- 1 week, so we got until 2/27/07

after that we'll start judging one way or another

speaking of which we still need some sort of judges... if I wont get any, then I am gonna let everyone vote, but on three conditions:
- have to vote for all screenshots
- excluding your screenshots
- no cheating

lets see if I got this right

ENTRIES so far ----------------------

@Flybye - I assume yours is a ship's screenshot?

@Dave Toome - pick one for each category, in case we'll limit to one when judging

@jlehtone - I think yours is more of a sector screenshot, do you agree?

@Admiral-Dyroi - pick one for combat entry

Well, I guess so. It hard to say which shows more details, the ships or the scenery.
