    Default What Gives

    O.k. I've been out there for the last two days, getting as many claims as I can. Now None of them look fake, or really even questionable, but damn there is one person, who just keeps marking my shit as fake/Not Enough evidence whatever, Who'd I piss off besides, EDDIEGT, We're straight now "I think".

    I just voted no on a few. Even though imaginative, cummon. Spirit and intent need to prevail. I found a bunch very imaginative and was thinking of doing the same myself, But I'll wait for the helicopter, the published magazine (Very Creative) etc.

    The Hunt is for fun and get me, the wife, kids, and Grandson out of the house.

    Next thing will be a gotStang decal on a model of a police cruiser (OOOPPSS already taken)

    Though creative, and I will give it to you all, also, I understand manys plight with weather and Wendy's car, the idea is to get out there, interact with people, take pictures of your car in the weirdest places, and hopefully not arrested for violating some law.

    You should have seen the looks when we took pictures in front of the police station. I thought they were going to involk some new Anti-terrorism law.

    DO I VOTE NO ON EVERYTHING. Nope not me. But I do vote no on a few here and there, just like someone does to me.

    Stacy and I was discussing this earlier. I was thinking of taking the Grandsons toy tug Boat, and running over it, thus I get the Your Car on a Boat. I was also going to take a pic of me running over a picture of Michael Jackson for the ferry part. Creative yes. In the spirit of the contest nope.

    This is supposed to be fun and get you out there. Not a way to get cheap points. (Wait I did that)

    Have fun with it

    LOL good answer! And yes, here in a few weeks I plan on making a great tour and getting a few more of these done! Should be a fun outing and as many as there are at fast food places, I will probably gain a little weight along the way!

    No guy's I'm not technically talking about the model pictures. Although I've seen some even cheesier pictures then the ones I've posted. It is imaginitive, and many of us had a laugh, if you can laugh at it and say now thats a good idea. Then you should be able to vaote yes on it. But anyway I'm talking about valid claims, Check out at the Police Station, near a Beer Truck, next to a boat. What do you call the pics I submitted. Someone voted no. I've got police cars, and the building with the Name of the Towns police dept. all in both shots and someone voted no. That's just cheap. That's why I put the last two in the claim. I've seen many pictures with toys in them that have gotten the points. How if there's two pics which are obviously real can someone vote that it's fake. It's just BS. You try getting on to the tarmac of an airport to get a picture. Weather or not you think it's creative, or out there enough, the picture is real and meets the requirements of the claim. Vote Real!!!!!!!!!!!. There are loopholes, and the guy's who are coming up with crazy stuff should be awarded a dummy prize, Hey I'll take it. hahahaha

    You're right! BUT, if someone wants to vote no (for whatever reason) ya can't track him down for it..lol If people see the toys as creative, cool! Then vote real. But if people don't see it that way, they should be able to vote no. As for someone voting no every time, they might have a problem with the whole concept of the hunt! They're members too, and I think they should be able to cast their vote and cast it privately. Of course this is just my opinion.. ONE way of making it better might be to add a 'WHY you've voted no box' and if they don't give a reason, the vote won't count?

    no no no no. You don't get It I don't really care about the toys, I did that because, it seemed easier for the fake pics to get votes than real pics. If you look at all of my 22 verified claims you'll see that they are real. but someone has voted no. I know you have the right to vote no. But I'm asking honestly if its a "good" pic per the hunt format, how can you vote no. Like computerguy said this is supposed to be fun. I went out yesterday with my wife and kids and embarressed the hell of of them, of course i got a good chuckle, and I was having fun, I knew i had some valid pics for the hunt, you submit them and you get a no vote. If it makes you all feel better, if I do get the points for my model pics, I'll have J not post them. It's really not about the points. I just wanted to get involved, I saw other guy's getting creative so I did to. I'm sorry no one else has an exact replica of they're mustang. Hell I'll make you one.


    BTW Wendy you should have seen the chicken!!!!!

    Works for me, I think it's a good Idea. Jim Cobra94's just screwing around with me, I don't really think J is going to find who it is, I really don't care. I got all the realitive points. It's just the point. I know I'm not the only one. I think there's four cars at a police station, all but one have a no vote. I mean come on, what is that? It's obvious to me that all but one are at a police station, and one is lucky it had a second pick because you could'nt make out what it was. There's others as well, I just don't get it. I'm just lost I guess

    lol..

    This is very hard. On one hand folks that are going out to get the real deal might feel slighted by those who are creative, BUT that's what voting REAL or NOT is all about..

    On the other hand, folks who want to be creative should be able to!

    If someone votes REAL on a picture of a toy next to their car, HOW is that different than someone voting NO to a real pic? lol you know??

    My humble opinion is, send in the claims and let folks vote how they want. The Fun part is in the journey I think

    I see that this hunt race has gotten a little testy and guys it wasn't to slate anyone. Myself and a couple of the other guys have either just gotten or about to get the cars out of their hybernation state and we thought it would be creative to join in on the fun.Trust me I would love to be able to get this thing on the road and do a little tooling around and get some of these hunts done for real. This winter has been bruttle on us this year so everything is a little delayed. I don't believe I voted no to anyone yet but the way I look at it is,it's all in fun and I really enjoy this site and look foward to years of friendships with you all.

    lol, it's not about that!! I personally think y'all ought to be able to put toys in the pics! What concerns me is, if I someone votes no to them I think their vote deserves to remain private and unquestioned. no testyness here..just debating, honest!
