Sniping?

[donga666]

I think the last comment on GLOOM\'s German does not understand \'For-shortening\'.

9.3 is a bloody good score though, I\'d be happy with that! The sad thing with \'Historic\' miniatures is you get some ill-informed goon saying \'err the webbing is the wrong shade of green\' or somesuch crap. Half the time, wrong.

High scores are nice, bloody hard to get though.

I also think PerfectPainter is a painting hero and should be idolised in the way he/she deserves

I think also it\'s worth noting the registered average scores on both those figs. The WIP from PerfectMiniature is 5.8ish and the SS is 9.5, a little higher than the overall score.

Have you not heard? It\'s all about smashing the system Hulk style. (And you do look like \'im, so no excuses.)

Remember the revolution will not be televised! Just internetiliseded. (Or something)

Peace and love...

(O and on topic, I think sniping is used far to much as an excuse for scores that are under the painters expectations.)

You\'re just saying I look like him because of my bulging physique. And my greenness.

It has nothing to do with my eyebrow(s) at all, right?

I wonder if I could leave a \"RADOM SMASH\" and a score of 1 as a comment without it being pulled by the moderators? That might be kind of fun.

Sniping DOES sound like fun, so long as it doesn\'t have to be anonymous, when you think about it like that...

If you left a RADOM SMASH comment with a 1 on my stuff, I\'d die laughing. I\'d hope you\'d post another, more helpful one, but that would be a funny, funny thing.

Scott, screw the scores and voting system (it gets abused by walking egos and organised voting cliques for the extra cash they can get through sales)

you have improved far more through using the forums mate, remember that.

That would be funny. Unless you do it to me. Then it wouldn\'t be very funny.

Oh no doubt, and Thanks Chris.

I still DO think the scoring system is valid, and I DO think the scores attached, particularly to my figs are accurate. My questions and further comments about the issue of sniping are more geared towards finding out if it happens, and if it happens as muchy as we think.

I agree 100% that this site has made me much better as a painter. The scores validate this trend showing my earliest work at aroun a 5.8 up to my latest at around 7.

The forums, and particualrly a WIP, and then a follow up in the discuss submissions are invaluable tools, and I\'ve recieved a million times over great hints, critiques, and helpful encouragement from you and others.

Thanks to all
