I think it should be randomly chosen like in Micro Mayhem, since judging one's newbieness is not very nice nor fair, IMO.

I was also going to ask how you determine who is a newbie, since it's difficult to judge base on skill level, and join date/post counts are fundamentally flawed (I mean there were LRA2).

How about you grade all the replicas based on accuracy, and the 4 lowest scores have to do the wildcard?

Thanks, man.

I was worried it wouldn't work because you said you were having problems with "Omni"  I'm so relieved.

so those that got things together fast and made it into the tournament in time may not even get a space in it ? and someone who decided to join at the last minute or when it was to late may get in ?

I guess accuracy judging is a good idea but I can see a small problem ^

what would be a criteria for such a thing ? I had to make mine an SnS as you cant get a spinner shell in DSL to match ? does that make mine least accurate ?

just to be clear im not having a go at Badnik's decisions I respect what he chooses and its his tournament after all just saying that it seems to be one of those "grey areas"

someone doesn't get to compete because there building skills arnt as good or parts dont work in there favor like they do with other replicas.

but at the same time it stops people filling up the bracket with something they made in 5 mins

positives and negatives from it :-D

Oh, and can I suggest the votes be confidential, via PM perhaps? Just to keep it from being personal.

isn`t there the possibility to make a survey in forums like this?

Yes, but I don't know if there's a way to make it so everyone can only pick up to 4.
