No, we can't just put all the cars people have already done into the project, they do need to be "new" or unique to the project. ;)

Personally, I'm waiting for the project to officially start.

Other than that. Really, I think you're worring too much about what colours car makers use. To actually put "use sensible colours" as one of the rules is a bit over the top. Let the electorate decide for themselves which cars are worthy, they'll weed out the bad cars quickly enough.

Well, I'll probably start it sooner then, but not tonight, I'm not really thinking straight, too tired... xD

about end - you should set, that you'll decide, that a deadline will be when enough car is - e.g. 3 days/week after similar statement - as last chance to submit anything instead of statement game over any time you'll have a mood to do so. :bg:

But what's ''identical'' wheels? Size or size and position too?

Size, I'll alter the rules to make it more clear. I'll set a provisional deadline of the 1st of January 2912, but that could well get extended if necessary (ie cars haven't yet been made), if that sounds sensible?

EDIT: It already says identical wheel sizes. ;)

Equally helpful to your proposal to rule change.

To be constructive
''4: Once we'll have a reasonable amount cars made of each type, I'll set a final deadline for submissions within a week since the statement. Then voting will commence on a style similar to ToM, where you vote for your favourite of each type via PM.''

Us bickering won't get anywhere. Anyway, rule 4 updated along the lines of your suggestion.

I have one more question to ask, I forgot to mention. In your rules you stated this...
Lukeno94 wrote:Wheel sizes must also be identical. The exception to this is the Sidamob, which should have a version with and without wheels.
Does this mean if I make a Sidamob that initially wasn't going to have wheels, just like how the original doesn't, that I'm now obligated to have wheels as well? What if having wheels doesn't fit the model I'm making? Either way, why would you need Sidamobs to have two different versions in the first place? Are you going to put both versions in the final pack, or what?

No, the reason that you require to have both is for the voters to choose whether they prefer to have wheels, or not to have them. Very few models would not fit having wheels anyway. Besides, adding wheels to the model will take all of 30 seconds, and if it doesn't suit the model, people won't choose that version. Simple really.

You omitted XYY's formula. You should probably fix that.

Also Haruna's Kart is missing.

All in same color on tarmac background in one line would be more fair (like Brix did for his pack). For example almost grass-green wing on grass background is not good image of my McTurbo. And you could also put all cars on one screenshot thanks to this or put 2 model types on one 800x600 image horizontally divided by a frame to make it easier for orientation by less attachments. Putting one empty attachment because of one additional car (triangle/mini/monstertruck) is only unnecessarily confusing. :)

You should've done this in a separate thread.

If you would like to, you can make screenshots similar to what I did in my GT Pack. Every car is taken from different screenshot, so they have same perspective, size etc. The frame is useful to make subtitles - which is whitch.

He meant, that you should make screenshots like that, if you want to, but don't worry.
I did it. :bg:
