Build-It-Yourself Attachment KITS...How much interest would there be???

I like it. But whoever starts a new thread on this subject, needs to post a link to it here, so we can find it easy.

PS I have a nice and toasty shop to work in via barrel stove;):laughing:

Here are my thoughts on the details/steps:
1. EA posts the attachment that they have in mind (or, better, a "your choice of these 3 attachments") as the start of a nomination thread (the main reason being that if someone already has a backblade, they may not be as interested on building one as they would be to make a boxblade or a landplane)
2. Make a "Nomination period" of 2-3 weeks where people can be nominated (or can nominate themselves) to be in the poll by posting in the thread from step 1
3. Close the nominations and put in a link to the poll with all of the options (perhaps actually close the thread?)
4. Have a 1-2 week period where people vote on the nominations (the Doodle poll could work, but the voters would have to use their screen name in order to validate their vote)
5. Whoever runs the poll closes it and posts the results (either to here, or via PM/email to EA)
6. EA announces the winner
7. The winner builds form the kit with copious amounts of pictures posted to TBN

Does this seem fair to all interested?

Thanks

It looks like you guys have a plan and I like it. I totally agree that the attachment should be something that the winner is interested in so maybe the best thing to do is discuss the attachment with the winner rather than limiting it to a choice of 3 different attachments up front. The attachment should be something the winner doesn't already have or even something that he does have and needs an upgrade. I also like the idea of starting a new thread for nominations so we don't have to watch multiple threads. If everyone agrees, i'll leave the organization of the polling/nomination up to Aaron as long as he's game. We'll send him an ETA shirt or something for his efforts.

What are the details? How long is the nomination thread going to be open? How long are people going to have to vote? How are you going to know that someone doesn't vote more than once?
