The staff of the various Kitmaker Network websites will be taking part in fun, no-holds-barred Group Build. There is, however, a slight twist: we will each be building a kit out of our normal genre!
Got your attention yet? Keep reading!
Between 1 February and 31 July 2009 staff members of the Kitmaker Network group of sites will (voluntarily) be taking part in a group build, blogging and building 1 of a selection of kits not within the genre of the site they serve.
But... WE NEED YOUR HELP!
We need YOU, the members of the Kitmaker Network to tell us which kit to build!
That's right, you heard it! YOU tell US what to build!
Each staff member will put forward a selection of kits, each kit of a different modelling genre. And this is where it gets interesting: you the members of the Kitmaker Network will get to vote which 1 kit you would like to see each participating staff member build!
That's right! YOU get to decide!
Over the next fortnight, between 15 - 31 January each participating staff member will post a selection of kits in this thread. You, the members, should state which 1 kit of that selection you would like to see each staff member build. The kit with the most votes by closing on 31 January is the 1 the staff member will build over the Group Build period. Simple right?
Now I should mention that we may have some staffers joining in the fun and mayhem later. They will follow much the same process at that time, and I ask that you show your support to them then as well.
So that's it! Everyone got it? Easy, right?
Staff member shows selection of kits. YOU vote for 1. Kit with most votes gets built by staffer
So there you have it, friends. Sound like fun? Well bring it on!
Rudi
