I just checked to be sure there was nothing said about a contest in that thread that I seen as of the time of this post.

Carlman, don't ever again accuse me of doing something I did not do! YOU (Carlman), should know better then to do that.

excuse me jrrdw but you made a pigen contest out of someone elses idea without asking for permission or giving credit, thats just plain wrong mate

No, I did not! You are wrong and don't know what your talking about!

Maby.

Why do you want to know?

just thought that some sort of acknolegement should have been included if you used his idea..

i did post about him stealing my idea... but it disappeared.... (it could have been my crazy internet though...)

I deleted it because it is/was in the contest thread. You are more then welcome to join/enter the contest because at the time of your post there the discussion thread, (this thread) wasn't posted yet, it was in the making.

hmm you just gave me an idea... a spudgun... made out of a spud... genius!

Thanks for clearing that up/pointing it out.

Yes, making a cannon out of a potato is your idea. Totaly. I assumed you where refering to the contest being it's being discussed in the contest thread.

No, just a plain old potato chamber.

the point is, i didn't recieve a PM saying; "hey ali, would it be all right to base a contest around your fantastic idea of a potato potato gun"

Yes ALIHISGREAT, I understand and sent you a PM with explanation. My apologies. You have been given due credit in the starting post. I hope all is good between us on this?

Alihisgreat: Yes, he stole your idea. It was wrong, but you're making a big deal out of it. If it was some revolutionary idea or something I know I'd also be mad, but as soon as you post it online without a patent it's fair game for everyone.
That's why I generally keep my ideas to myself for a while until I decide to build them (if I decide to build them... if not I'll share the idea with everyone).

Ok guys, I beleive the matter has been setteled. Any other question about this should be sent via the PM service to who ever you want to ask.

does it have to be a standard potato?
or can we use plants from the potato family?

Standard potato.

can we use some kind of glue in the chamber, its pretty hard to hollowit out and then attach a barrel and to have it all air tight

As long as the chamber isn't lined with glue.


There is going to be some mandatory picture rule changing, I will let you all know when I figure it out and post it up.

If anyone has a suggestion or thought about the rules, feel free to share. I want this to be fun for every one to join in on or just admire from a far or what ever. The idea is to have fun!

sorry for being dumb but what do you mean by a chamber lined with glue, my english sucks sorry.

How would one win such a contest? performance? looks?
