Fellow Pork Loins

The "DSB Butt and Snout Pickers Council", i.e. Lords “jrnelson”, “pnzr-cmdr”, “generalzod”, and “WeWillHold” announce the pending closure of model nominations for the 1st ever “Pig in a Pile” Groupie Build Campaign Thingy.

The build list, (showing Piggies that have volunteered to participate, and their most voted on Pig Pile model), will be posted Friday March 19th, here in the DSB forum, (so if you haven't voted yet, you still have time).

To review:
 Building starts Saturday March 20th, the first day of spring (when all serious Pigs starting rutting)

 Any and all models qualify, (please keep all figs fully clothed) hehe

 End date is Monday June 21st, the first day of summer, (when all serious pigs starting working on their “tans” hehe)

 In the spirit of friendship, a special dispensation has been authorized by the World Pork Council to allow “Wolves” to participate in the Campaign.

 Your Pig number, OR, the initials “DSB”, must be placed on the models/figs/dio/whatever is modeled. For example if SS-74 built a wingy thingy, either the #2 (which is Dave’s Pig number), or “DSB”, would have to appear on his plane or somewhere in the dio etc.

Remember, if models are not completed there may be consequences, such as:
Face the wrath of Helga, or
Be forced to listen to Dave Tong karoke to "I can't get no Satisfaction", or
be turned over to the Fluvains and/or Wolves for immediate "sausage processing".

Seriously, pics of your models can be posted in the DSB as you see fit, and if anyone has an idea for a "Pig Pile Ribbon" that would be cool. I'll ask Staff Jim once the campaign is done, for consideration on posting the ribbon to participants Profile Page.

Have fun, and watch for the list this Friday.

Signed
DSB Butt and Snout Pickers Council

hehe - in addition to what Lord Wood said.....

It has been decreed that the "Snout and Butt PickersCouncil" will hold the power and authority to break cases of ties.... hehehe, sooooo If your pile ends it a tie between a couple of kits, WWH, Pnzr-Cmdr, Zod, and I are open to accepting bribes... since we get to cast the final votes in cases of ties :-)

Later-
Jeff

PS - I am partial to German beer, just in case you were wondering what a good bribe would be :-)
