2009 FTE Online Championship ROUND FOUR ENTRY THREAD


Here it is~ ROUND FOUR OF THE FTE ONLINE CHAMPIONSHIP!!!! Post up your pictures to enter, here is a recap of the rules:

1) Contest open to all model and year Ford Trucks (includes vans, SUV's, All Wheel Drive, all levels of customization, etc)
2) Number of entries in each round limited to the first ten who enter a round. If after two weeks have passed there are less than ten but more than one entries, the entries for that round will close and the deciding poll will run anyway. If there is only one entry it wins by default and moves on to the CHAMPIONSHIP round. (If there are NO entries I have failed!)
3) To enter - post a picture of your truck in the ENTRY THREAD for that round at least 640 by 480 pixels in size (no links to other sites. Picture must be displayed in thread) Avoid extremely large images, please. (1024 pixels largest side of image). Huge pictures may interfere with some connection speeds. ALL images will be tailored to size by committee to fit in the first post in the poll threads
4) RULE OF OWNERSHIP: You must have owned the truck AT THE TIME YOUR PICTURE OF IT WAS TAKEN to enter it. You may not enter anyone elses truck FOR them. No exceptions
5) CHAMPIONSHIP RULES:
The first place finisher in each round qualifies and is entered in the CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND.
After ten regular rounds, the CHAMPIONSHIP consists of the first place finishers from the preceeding ten rounds running in a "Best of the Best" contest.

6) VOTE MONGERING: You may enlist your buds and chapter, other groups or whatever to vote for your entry. HOWEVER - be warned that all of the polls are annonymous, and your buds can always vote for someone else. There is no way to know! SPAMMING the forums should not be done at any time for this purpose, be careful what you do...
7) Once a poll is up for a round, it will be active for exactly 14 days. These polls close by themselves and whoever wins does. If for some reason there is a tie - a tie breaker poll will run until the following sunday night at the latest. Local midnight is based on Central Time in the USA.
8) NON-EXCLUSION: Employees of FTE and/or IBI welcome to enter including moderators or other unpaid affiliates as well as sponsors of the site - and all FTE Users
9) REPEAT ENTRIES: Out of sportsmanship, it is asked that if you want to enter a following contest, enter no more than two in a row. After waiting for one in between, you may enter again. THIS WILL NOT BE ENFORCED! It is a request, in order to give others a chance
*First place finishers must wait until after the CHAMPIONSHIP round for obvious reasons.

10) PRIZES: 1st place winner in each round will recieve a free one year paid membership to Club FTE, which provides access to extra features such as the Club FTE Members Only forum. Those who already are supporters will be given a twelve month extension to the membership they already have. For the Championship Round we are considering passing the hat to purchase trophies - this is under development.

It's picking up speed, so I hope you were ready for this one. ANY year, ANY model, ANY modifications, -
ONE MAKE


HERE WE GO!

As promised - I do believe this is the first Explorer to show up. Not in full-out detailed splendor but we're as ready as we'll ever be.

ETA: CRUDNEY - I can't post this picture other than by an outside link....?

We DO have a choice about what time of day we want to launch the poll itself.

I realise that in the land down under clocks run backwards and toilets flush in the opposite direction of swirl, but is there any special time of day or night that would be most convenient to everybody?

Just a random notion.....

I tend to favor as soon as I see ten entries.
