Gather about, good people of LAF, the final by one round of voting for the finalist the Build Something Contest and the coveted Potato Cup, of the year 2020 is about to commence, You think the corona virus is bad? Just you wait till you have to make a decision which of the last four builds you prefer.

You have five days from now to make a choice for which last two builds that will proceed to the final round. AS Have been said before, take a look at the build posts and consider the intricacies of the respective process, if you need some help to tip the balance.

Hey Hammers, now that the contest has rounded the final corner can I post pictures of the build process and the finished product on my blog or would you prefer I wait until the final round is done?

Also, do we need new pics for the final round?

Let me just complete my hissy fit for not winning my round and I'll get back to you.  ;)

If I get time tonight I'll try to send new photos - is there a theme to the new ones?  Like the last round was supposed to AAR style?

But I may spend too much time in the corner giggling about beating a Swede... ;) ;D


Honestly, though, I am still surprised at still being in contention considering the competition.  This year was spectacular.

Two more builders have been thrown out of the cage and the final two, the indomitable Codsticker and the abominable Sinewgrab are left in a final bout to death (-ish). Who will in the end lift the revered Potato Cup in a gesture of triumph? You decide!

You have five days to vote from today.

Into the home stretch now, 24 hrs to go in round 4.  I noticed declining number of votes in each round: well over 100 in the first, just over 100 in the second, the 90's for the third and now just 72 for the final. Is this normal? As the painting league and the BSC seem like a good community building exercises here on LAF is there any way to promote them to get the wider LAF membership involved?

I have a suspicion that some of that is caused by indecision - I know I have looked at a contest, and not voted, because I could not make up my mind.

That may well be the problem; theoretically the choices should be more difficult as the competition progresses.

I expected some BSC fatigue, which i tried to amend by allowing for new photos.
