  • ASS Model Contest Finalists & Phase II Poll

    Here they are, the top five “ASS” Models as picked by our forum members: (in no particular order)

    Kuat A-36s Windshrike (01) by Morgan190 Neimoidian Gundark Wing by theRealJudeAbides

    Crescent Mooner by Legohaulic

    D-19 Enforcer by Nannan Z.Mo'tek by Cole Blaq

    Now it’s time for the final round, where only the entries above will be pitted against each other in competition for the ARC 170 set and bragging rights for the “Best ASS on FBTB”. Come on by the forum and make your choice. This poll will run for one week, and I promise not to break it this time and re-start it in a couple days…

  • ASS Model Contest Poll Reset

    We’ve been having a number of issues with the poll for our current contest… but we’ve got it back under control now thanks to Ace and his mad coding skills. We hope. However, and this part was entirely my fault, all of the votes placed during this week were lost when I attempted to extend the poll. Oops.

    So, the downside is everyone who voted already has to vote again. The upside is everyone who was having trouble with the poll should be able to vote now, and the entry I managed to omit has been added to the grid so he now has a fair chance like everyone else. This *new* poll will run for 10 days as originally planned, everyone gets three votes to spread around, and the top five submissions will be pitted against each other about two weeks from now. Come on by the thread and cast (or recast) your votes!

  • ASS Model Contest – Voting Phase 1

    The building phase is over and our members have shown off some very fine ASSes – now it’s your time to select the best of the best. Shown below are all of the qualifying ASS entries. Each active forum member can vote for up to three, and the top five from the first poll will go on to the final voting round and compete for the prizes. You have ten days to vote, so take your time and be sure to check out each ASS before making your selections.

  • Final Lap

    Final Lap

    OK Bothans, the race is back on and the competitors are headed out on the track. The ranks are mixed up as they leave the chaotic pit lane, some got hit harder than others… but no one was immune. The more damage dealt, the farther back they start the final lap. Curious how the high and low ends of the rankings were the biggest targets, and that classy iPod Racer ended up as the most loathed by a single vote over the Desert Nomad. Meanwhile the G-pod, Exo Racer and Unspod had the lightest attacks… maybe these sleepers from the center of the pack are going to burst through to the front to take the win!

    Here is the voting lineup for the final lap (but NOT the current rankings!):
