The Lead Painters' League - Season Three

[Mancha]

Uh oh, he's in trouble.

[Malebolgia]

Oh, that's not allowed? I assumed I was safe as the miniature is online after all...with my name and all. If not, I won't do anymore.
Checked the rules again and nowhere it says what I'm doing is wrong. And no, don't do stuff like that to attract votes. I don't really care about the standings...only thing I care about is painting 5 figs each week and showing the result.

[D@rth J@ymZ]

By the time stamp on the post to FU-UK, Malebolgia's LPL entry would have already been in and accepted.  If nothing else, it should bring some more interest to the LPL. 

Anyways, Round 2 is in.

Guidance posted further up this thread a few days ago.

On a similar subject, while I can't quite find it in the rules right now, just to remind everyone planning to participate, that it is 'not the done thing' to separately post extra pics elsewhere on this site, of a team that you have 'live' in the competition.

Clearly it makes a bit of a nonsense of the requirement to submit one image into the competition, if competitors are free to open up another thread on another board, and post loads of extra pictures of the same subject!
This removes the element of fairness from the competition, so I would kindly request that participants don't do this.

I know that most people know this already, and wouldn't dream - intentionally or otherwise - of influencing the outcome in this way. But maybe not everybody realises this, since I've seen it happen recently (not here in the LPL I should add).

Of course, once the week of the contest for that particular entry is finished, you should go ahead and post as many supplementary pics as you like in the appropriate board. 

Personally, when I'm in a competition, I try to avoid posting the pictures anywhere else (including on other forums) until the competition is finished. But this is not a rule as such. I leave it up to your conscience 

Thanks all 

So if no other pics have been posted here on LAF, no actual rules have been broken.

Obviously if you post additional pics of a 'live' entry on other forums with the intent of boosting your votes in the LPL, that would be very much against the spirit of the competition.
I'm sure that wasn't the case here. 

[Malebolgia]

Okay, thanks for the quote...totally missed that one (I read the rules and the other topic by the Prof.). And to be honest, I never ever thought about attracting votes to my entry by posting it elsewhere. I just wanted to share my newly painted miniatures. But having read the quote and people's thoughts, I won't do it again. People just have to go here if they want to see entries
So sorry if I trespassed the rules and it surely won't happen again.

I'm evidently dense and blind

Can somone point me to where I can see the entries (past and present)?

Thanks!

Top Right of every page there is a link to the league.
"Round 1 of Season 3 of the lead painters league is now open vor voting!"

Also there is a separate board for the league on the index.

(Painted these five miniatures for the current Lead Painter's League. You'll have to paint five miniatures per week if you really want to compete. With ten rounds I can hope to clear out 50 miniatures from the unpainted pile! Each round you'll be paired against another person from the league. I assume the winner gets more points (never read the rules well )

Guess that explains it 

But honestly, I know for a fact that Malebolgia spend a lot of time on getting his enty finished specifically for the LPL and didn't mean to do any harm by posting the pictures somewhere else. I guess he was just a bit to proud for finally not only producing nice miniatures, but also making cewl setups. Although the pictures were posted on a few other fora after being posted here, he could have first asked if it was in the spirit of the LPL. (And might have wondere why no one else posted his LPL pictures anywhere else)

A well, guess we won't see this happening again and Malebolgia will probably behave as a good boy form now on

Or should the GG* punks take care of him otherwise ?

Being somewhat nervous of the prospect of painting horses, I've been concentrating on Round 5, to make sure I give myself enough time to get them done. But I just realised: I've got nothing for rounds 3 and 4!

Yikes, better get a wriggle on.

[Vanvlak]

Good grief.
If there's one thing I'm just not good at it's painting eyes; but that seems horribly easy compared to voting this year! Some of the choices you have to make are plain cruel!
What a show. 

[MadMö]

I symply love the LPL.
Going to work...
Fetch coffee...
And see outstanding paint jobs.
Great way to start the day.

[Froggy the Great]

Wow.  I have never seen anything like this - there were what, three totally tied contests after something like 70 voters this morning?

[dodge]

every vote this year has been hard, even if the voting shows an outright winner after I've voted it's still been close when I have to decide.

But there were more this morning when I came to vote, so hard, I'm glad it's just a bit of fun

Hey Cap'n Blood,


Quick question/suggestion, I know you have probably had enough of them to last a lifetime since agreeing to run the LPL3 compitition! I was wondering if since the last round has a possibility of haveing 10+ figures and a "large" beast in it we might allow two pictures for the last round? a group shot and then some closer small highlights shots? Just a thought, don't hang me....
