1. GB runs from 1st July to 1st October, 2010 with a possible two week extension.

2. The subject MUST include an F-111, however, beyond that anything is allowable.

3. TSR.2s are NOT F-111s!  Neither are Vigilantes or Buccaneers!

4.  Profiles and Stories will also be permitted to be entered into the GB separate to actual model builds.  They will be judged together in a separate vote to the model entries.

5. Kits already started but not completed at the time of GB start are allowed to be entered providing proof is given that the said kit is not completed.  GB Moderator has the final say on such inclusions.

6. There is no Rule #6, there never has been a Rule #6 and there will never be a Rule #6, don't ever ask about Rule #6..

7. All decisions of the GB Moderator regarding eligibility, the rules and a GB extension are final.

8. Finished builds are to be posted up in a "Finished Builds" thread no later than Midnight Local Time on the deadline date.

9. A winner will be selected by popular (but secret) pole which will commence once the GB is closed and end no later than 14 days thereafter.  Separate poles will be held for model and non-model entries

10. Have fun!

Sorry for the immediate "rules lawyer" question, but it needs to be asked:

How much of an F-111 has to be included?

Is there a limit on how many we can enter?  I have too many ideas and need to know how many I can pick  ;D

At least enough so that it is possible to identify.  If you want, post or PM me your proposal and I can let you know if it is ok.

Nope, never is a limit - you can do one a day if you want (or can).

Putting the guerrilla warfare to one side for a moment, how about this tandem seat F-111 variant for inspiration?

May I make  suggestion?

Temporarily shift the F-111 thread from "Aircraft, Armor and Ships by Topic" into this area so all the nifty ideas are handy for members' perusal.  I'm not a mod, so I don't know what mechanics are involved, or if it's even practical.  Maybe we could just hotlink the thread here in the Rulz section, like so:

Yeah, what he said ^^^^  We need an inspiration thread as well I think.

Great idea for a GB!

Don't know if I'll have time, likely not though.

I still really want to make the Spanish air force one that Maverick profiled a couple of years back in the Mirage F.1 sand and spinach scheme.

Yes comrade, you can (as well as a stories) - in fact it is encouraged.  Providing all are separate (i.e. story isn't in support of profile or model and vice versa and profile isn't of the model), they will be judged as separate entries.

So if I build a model of one of the profiles then it will be judged as one entry then?  Just want to make sure.  My story and profiles will span around 30-40 years and I plan to build up one of the profiles.
