Members Blakemore Effects Posted November 25, 2012 Members Share Posted November 25, 2012 I don't know what I'll send yet, but I'm sure I'll have some sort of prize available again this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Aristotle Posted November 25, 2012 Author Members Share Posted November 25, 2012 Originally Posted by gae86 also sincerely for those who know a little me and Thomas, should know that we are not usual "complainer". As he said, lot of us could have problems finding time to wire a board. Everytime we had a BOTB we always talked a lot before and we knew it would have started, in a 3 days, a week, a month or whatever. This helped also for collecting prizes, share the word and involve generally more people. Making it start today, out of nowhere, seems a little of a nonsense to me, but again that's just my opinion! If you look back, you'll see that there has been BOTB 2012 talk around here for months at this point and it's been tradition to have BOTB around this time of the year. I hardly think I sprung this out of nowhere, but I hear your concern and that's why I've added another week to the "battle". There are now two weeks to smack talk (BTOB'd), wire boards, buy new pedlols, spread the world, solicit prizes, whatever..... then another 8 days to vote. I'm thinking 25 days is long enough for BOTB, agreed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members IRG Posted November 25, 2012 Members Share Posted November 25, 2012 I would agree about pushing it back just a bit, though I'm ready now. I'd say December 9th or even the 14th. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct. Anything that the signal passes through counts as a pedal. Expression pedals, amp switches, tuners in the tuner-out of a volume pedal...don't count as a pedal. Volume pedals, pedal tuners, etc...do count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mhuxtable Posted November 25, 2012 Members Share Posted November 25, 2012 People who don't visit the forum obsessively probably don't want to arrange pedals on a board for no other reason than a dorky version of a beauty pageant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members V Posted November 25, 2012 Members Share Posted November 25, 2012 Do we really need to count tuners? I don't see any harm in considering that non-signal passing because when it's engaged the signal literally doesnt pass. It only passes signal if it's off and it doest affect the signal passing through ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also cheers to Aristotle for organizing this and to all the people donating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
