Heavyweight Denim Championships 2013-2015 - Official Thread
-
The theme challenge starts 01/04, but when is the deadline to post pics?
I presume that the deadline for posting baseline pics is also 01/04?
Oh yeah- a pics only thread for the progression of the jeans sounds good, then the main thread can focus on announcements and general chitchat.
Deadline for posting challenge pics is 12 weeks from April 1st.
Deadline for baseline pics is when you receive your jeans (some people are waiting for a Samurai release, or Beatles jeans.)
Agree with you totally on the pics thread.

I combed through the last few pages but didn't see any news about the hats. Any news on them?
Thanks again for making this contest awesome! -
Hats are Beatle and Jimmys gig. Beats is out of the country at the moment, but I will direct her to respond as soon as she returns in mid week.
-
if someone doesn´t select a single challenge from the 3 given opportunities…is he/she out of the comp directly?
i would lower the time to post a challenge entry to 8 weeks...if we have 12 weeks of time, i think things are going to get really messy, since after 12 weeks one can already upload the pics/vids for the new challenge!

The competition is for jeans evo, I'm not going to start jumping on people for not doing the challenges. But, like I keep saying, you get back what you put in. Without competing in or completing the challenges you don't have much chance of winning the contest, and absolutely no chance of winning any challenge prizes.
As for time, one thing I learned from the last contest is that sometimes real life gets in the way. The time is set at 12 weeks to allow people the maximum opportunity to take part.

Don't think I've said this publicly, so I'll do so now while I'm thinking about it:
Gavin, thank you very much for putting in the countless hours it takes to keep this contest running so smoothly. I have no idea how you keep sane after answering hundreds of emails, PMs, posts, etc. and dealing with the million details and crises that the rest of us don't even know about. You're in a thankless position and you've handled it with grace and class. I know I have zero chance of winning anything in the next two years, but I'm participating just because your enthusiasm is contagious. So thanks, because you rock.And a) I'm a little drunk and b) that's the last nice thing I'm going to say to/about you for a long time.
Possibly ever.

^What Chris said. Bravo.

Thanks Chris, you should get drunk more often

I echo what Chris said!
Also, I just paid for my MBBs and for anyone who doesn't want to hunt back to page 47 for the link, here it is:

GENERAL REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED
This does not apply if you are purchasing your jeans through Rivet and Hide, or The Denim Vault (sponsors perks)
This also does not apply if you have made a prior arrangement with me due to your circumstance (awaiting jeans release etc….)
-
awesome so if we have our deposit in and out registration number were all set then until we pay the rest of the deposit and wait for the denim to come in
-
Absolutely correct

Paging Evil Twin, where are you man? Tried PM, need some contact from you.
