i'm not flaming CM or anything but this has got to be the worst lack of communication in the world.

1st they were 15 days late in deciding the top 5 for each category (art,most extreme)with hardly a word as to why.

2nd they got flustered at some of the contestants who were complaining and just posted 3 pics of each finalist and said 'go vote'. every year before they posted everyones worklogs so people could make an educated vote. some finalists wanted to know if they could post their worklogs to people could see them and they never once answered.

3rd voting ended i believe the 13th and still not a word.

I realise that what they are doing is a huge undertaking,(probably got one guy doing the whole thing...poor guy) but man a little communication would have stopped a lot of the complaining that got them flustered in the first place.

I manage a Sherwin-Williams store. if your having a problem and let the customer know usually you have no problems. if you dont they get mad and take their business elsewhere.
you would think that in something like this that they would realize this and keep communications open.

I am not even going to mention the fact that one of the contestants has tried twice to get people disqualified.
oh yeah i just did didn't I.

I bet i should have just started a new thread for this one

anyways thanks for asking Jux

Understand that your mod is going to be unique for quite some time. I would recommend submitting it to all the rags just for the hell of it, what do you have to lose? It is a significant mod that deserves recognition.

still reading this post so if some one has already said this (sorry in advance ) there are two rare earth magnets in your hard drives, so wouldn't think this would be a prob!

hard drive are fun to pull apart all sorts of cool thing inside!!!

I find this one appealing, I like a good case mod beyond normal cases. I give it a thumbs up!
