Announcing the first MWSO II photo contest.
To entice the participants of the MWSO II to publish their pictures so that the unfortunate members of the forum that cannot attend may enjoy a little of the flavor of the day, we are going to have a photo contest.
RULES: we don't need no stinking rules. Ok we do and here they are:
1) each participant may submit a maximum of 2 pictures each. I ask for Chris' (or someone else) that knows how to set up a section to set one up with voting - similar to the cook offs. This section will be limited to the contest photos and only these photos are eligible.
2) all pictures must be posted no later than midnight Tuesday ( that is the midnight right before Wed starts) after the event. That should allow enough time for all to sober up, get home and post their pics. Voting closes Thursday a midnight.
3) All non-attendees will be eligible to vote for their favorite picture - one vote per non-attendee
4) the picture that gets the most votes wins.
5) winner gets --not much. I will throw in some gunpowder and 'Bama red rub and a couple bottles of local sauces. Others may choose to add stuff and send it. Prize for first place only ( 2nd place is the first loser and this is not one of those everyone feel good contests where all participants get a trophy. You are either the big dog or go home.)
6) Pictures will be judged on the personal whims of the voter (makes judging easier). My criteria will be what picture shows the spirit of the members of this forum - so that leaves it wide open ;D
7) In the event of any disputes, all decisions of the main judge will be final. (By the way, I just took a vote and was elected main judge - it was unanimous 1-0). The main judge can be influenced or is that "is under the influence"?
8) that's about it -will make up the rest as we go along.
Good luck to all, have a great time and no pictures will be submitted for evidence unless subpoenaed by law enforcement.
Sounds like fun Gus!
Me likey this idea!
This could be dangerous!! Although it does sound like fun
Please NOOOOOOOOoooooo G-strings... :D
Is this really a contest or is it a bragging post to all the unfortunate members who didn't make it? ;D LOL
Have fun and be safe everyone, I cant wait to see the pics and hear the stories!

Gus here is my entries into your contest.
The first is a animated gif of me showing Larry how to cut ST. Louis style ribs. Which is what we do around here help each other out.

Lance, it was great to meet Shawn and you. Hope to see you on here often.
Rick, if you don't want Pat and me to go "shopping" in your smoked meat cooler, sit it further away from us! :D Does look a whole lot like NOLA doesn't it? Only thing missing in that pic to make it a total NOLA remake would be Hal being head down in the cooler.

What up Bradley Lovers this is Shawn Retter from Bradley Smoker and i would like to take the time to thank each and every one of you for giving me and Lance the time to join one of your Family events. I don't think it would be enough to say we had a great time but i can't figure out how else to say it. All of you made us feel very welcome and the food and conversations were incredible. I will never forget the hospitality we recieved and i hope this is not the last time we will be seeing you guys. Just so you know Lance and i have started getting the idea out to the rest of the group here in Galesburg that we would love to have one of the get togethers here at the warehouse somtime next spring. So we will be keeping in contact with you regarding OUR smokeout. Thanks again and i look forward to talking to all of you in the future and becoming a better Smoker user!!!

With all due respect. The photo contest portion of this thread has been canceled. Due to an unexpected death in the Gusrobin family. The contest will not happen.

I've enjoyed viewing the photos, contest or not...y'all did a great job!
