Hahah, honestly i'm not bitching because my cannon didn't get nominated, I knew it wouldn't it's just an average 2" barrel sealer.

But I think there could've been more purpose to this 'competition' then there is.

It's a simple contest, the objective is to get older cannons , wich were worthwile back into the spotlight for all to see.Some of those have inspired a lot of us but they will be lost among the thousands of topics.

Everybody could nominate their personal favourite.Why like this?
That requires no further rules.
This way all cannons from all catagories had a chance.
Just needs to be someones favourite, that 's all.

No million dollars...sorry
:oops:

I was actually reluctant to vote because I couldn't be arsed to try and remember some of my favourite cannons that didn't get nominated I remember from awhile back.

Doesn't mater, we still surfaced quite a few :)

Ofcourse it is one of the coolest cannons to show new members...
They will wet their pants!!!
But although it is the most professional, some of the others are more inspiring to home builders.Or could be at least.
The eclipse launcher is not something an average Joe can put together.


This is why we need more VOTES.
To get a clear representation.Just vote for your personal favorite!
Every vote makes a difference.I'd rather loose with just one vote than none at all.



Your vote could mean others feel it's not so futile to vote for that same gun.

maybe you could rename the thread to "VOTE OR DIE!" or something like that. I think people have started ignoring this thread, but if you change the name, people will think its new!
Do not look back, and grieve over the past, for it is gone;
Do not be troubled about the future, for it has not yet come;
Live life in the present, and make it so beautiful that it will be worth remembering.

I wonder why some nominations got zero votes?
People must've voted for other cannons than they elected?

BTW Too late to nominate it but Here's one I remember from back in the day (from maybe spudtech or air-power)
http://koolpages.com/potatohell/bbgun.html
I remember it because the post read like "here's my full auto BBMG, it has no moving parts" It was funny and cool back then.
Just wondered if this guy posts here or if anyone knows about this one?

That one actually led me to study the vortex block(I had seen piper's vortex but it never gave diagrams until I saw Burnt Latke's page. 8)

Airpower.net is was I believe.Seems like an age ago.
I liked the "crowkiller pump" back then and a marble sniper that shot the bark off a tree.It had the barrel run through the reservoir wich was really innovative back then.


Anyway, the idea was to promote this site's creations.


WE NEED MORE VOTES!!

That would be luckythirteen13, he was very active on Spudtech. But dropped out before the forum shutdown.
