Why are there no names in the wall of fame? Shouldn't last month's winner be there?

EDIT:

TIgershark: did you spawn all those planes on the carrier by modifying the STP, or did you actually land them all there? (Just curious) ;)

What happened to this? Why wasn't there a screenshot contest for September and October?
Not saying I have the time nor resources to participate, but I'm just curious about this.

literally stared at the topic for 20 min before I could decide who to vote for! Great stuff here :)

-- Sat Nov 01, 2014 12:39 am --

Congrats to Coopinator, great screenie indeed! I literally stared at the screen for 20 min before I could decide who to vote for. hesitated between Scarecrow's, Decaff's and Coopinator's pic. Finally went for Decaff :)

I like the how SC choose to place the aircrafts, the F-18 directly above and behind the A-4F with their tails fusioned togheter, like they're welded and flying perfecly in unisson, also love the resizing. Overall feel is honor and heritage. I also like how Decaff gracefully blended aircrafts with the scenery. I am usually not a fan of perfect centering on the subject but I love it when it's well done as it is the case here and of course, love the canadian colors. Coopinator's screenie is a great exemple of a successful pic using the fish-eye effect, I love the angles of the wingtips on the two extremities F-18's. Taking the smoke in the pic lets us clearly see where those airplanes were a few seconds ago and what they did.

Note that I waited after voting ends before discussing specifics, I think it's best to avoid influence of any kind, since I told who I voted for. (I will never vote for myself btw). just my 2 cents.

Great pics out there, again :) great job to all, these were my 3 favorites this month. just wanted to share why I think so.
what about you guys? What's your fav and why?

I believe Venom has gone off YS now, he may come back every now and then. Can someone else take over?
I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for my signature, I can tell you I don't have one. But what I do have are a very particular lack of skills, skills I have imagined having over a very long career. Skills that make me are completely useless in any situation. If you stop reading now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't stop reading, I will look for you, I will probably not find you, and I will kill your refrigerator.

I see no reason to wait. These contests are fun!

I propose we do "Propeller Aircraft" as a topic. Any addon on any map. Solo or formations allowed.

What do you guys think?
