Ha ha, no problem, as long as I know what you mean, and it doesn't become a version issue (SH vs SH3 vs SH4), and you don't go back and EDIT the post. No editing posts in the MS contest threads! :smug:

Damn.. I wish there was some alarm clock to notify me when this picture changes. Would deffinetly make my sleep calmer :) As for now I feel like I need to be on the watch while waiting this picture to be changed. It's kind of frustrating too :)

I have an idea of setting the specific time when does next picture will be added and time limit for the picture to be solved.

Anyway I like this kind of game really :up:

The life of a sub skipper is very hard. He never knows when a target will appear over the horizon, when the enemy will strike before him, or when another skipper in the wolfpack will sink the ship he is stalking. He knows he has a limited supply of torpedoes and he has to make each one count.

Contact 11-07-08 03:48 AM

XabbaRus 11-07-08 11:25 AM

You don't alter the pictures in anyway apart from cropping it?

Onkel Neal 11-07-08 11:28 AM

In one previous pic I did remove the crosshair lines, but other than that, no. I intend to leave future screens unaltered, too. Good point, thanks.

Updated winners list, clarified rule about editing posts and deleting posts.

An edited post or a deleted post counts as a wrong guess. Does not matter what the edited content says, any "Edited by ..." or deletion and a wrong guess is registered.

Onkel Neal 11-11-08 12:40 AM

Rule update: Also, you must be a member with a join date on or before OCT. 31, 2008 to participate. Any members found using multiple forum accounts or starting a new forum account to play will be removed from the contest and the forum.
