Right the 2023/2024 GB Season will be as follows.

The Annual One Week Build - Saturday 10th June through to Sunday 18th June. Moderated by Kitbasher  :thumbsup:

1st July 2023 to 30th September 2023 the Re-engine it GB.
1st November 2023 to 31st January 2024 the Buccaneer, Harrier and Jaguar GB.
1st March 2024 to 31st May 2024 the 1960's GB.

I'll also issue my annual call for Moderators for each of the GB's. Ideally I'd like 2 for each. It doesn't involve that much work. Most of it is in the initial stages, sorting out the rules etc, and then at the end sorting out the voting. My involvement is to be around to offer help and advice and to sort out the initial Board and threads etc. I don't get that involved, my view is that it's the Moderators GB in conjunction with the membership.

So if you fancy giving moderating a go, let me know.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

You sure about that?

Gondor trying to book holidays for that week where the 12th is a Monday

Gondor's Modelling Rule Number Three: Everything will fit perfectly untill you apply glue...

I know it's in a book I have around here somewhere....

I'll mod one of them Chris, the Bucc, Harrier and Jag one appeals.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

I'll be happy to join Kit with the Bucc/Harrier/Jag one or if needed do the 60s one.
So I got that going for me...which is nice....

TomZ

I'll volunteer for one again.

No real preference which one.

That's right Chris - I think you mean Sat 10th to Sunday 18th.

Yep, you mean 12-18 June, Chris.

Happy for it to slip a week if it helps out Gondor.

Will the runner up suggestions be held over for next year? Plus combining a few of the lower scoring ones too? It might save some work.

I'm up for the Re-engined GB Chris... Moderate that is ...done a ton of RW re-engine jobs and enjoyed those and as for the rules..I can let my mechanical mind go to work without being crazy picky..
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Right I've no idea what I was looking at when I jotted that down a few weeks ago  :banghead:  So the One Week Build normally runs Saturday through to the Sunday of the following weekend, 9 days. So that's Sat 10th June to Sunday 18th June.

Does that cause anyone particular problems ?

We/I am on a very tight schedule, if it slips a week then it starts to bump up against the Re-engine it GB, and I really don't want a GB season to start taking 13 months instead of 12.
