    You should all just individually pick 1st 2nd and 3rd and then see how your picks match up.

    If 2 pick the same for each place its unanimous

    I don't get why it takes much time either and as couch said you could do a unanimous decision for each placing. The criteria were clearly established in the thread where Cape was asking people to join up. Most improved as in muscle gain and fat loss, from start to finish.

    Yeah a meeting of the minds is like a jury deliberation, its kind of the wrong way to pick winners and runners up. Some ones honest opinion of first place can be bullied or pursueded to go another way.

    I say you all individually pick your 1st 2nd and 3rd and then see what that looks like across your cards

    We do and we also have a job and a life outside the forum. There was a lot of thought and time put into our decision, too bad it isn't appreciated.
    Cape has the rankings and will announce the placement when he logs in.
    There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...

    I hope we get to know why it was a tough decision then. All I know is it was clearly stated that the one who improved the most in regards to muscle gain and/or fat loss ranks higher. I could see place 1,2,3,4 within a moment. I think there was talk of getting penalized if you don't contribute to the thread, but no additional points if you contribute a lot. Just saying if you pull up some made up criteria and the placings aren't in line with what's clearly visible, it would suck really bad, I'd boycott any future competition.

    No there was quite a bit of conversation in making our decision and Cape has been forwarded all of the conversations and the rankings.
    Our decision was based on most improved, which is the criteria. Please be patient and the results will be posted soon.
    What you do regarding future competitions is entirely up to you.

    Sometimes I think it's better not to speak as I hope it doesn't create a negative tension, just wanted to point out what the definition of most improved was for us - muscle gain and fat loss, if someone comes with some bodybuilding show criteria that I can't even understand that would make it a big disappointment.

    No, we went by the criteria established at the beginning of the competition. Everyone made huge improvements compared to their starting pics, that is why it took time to reach a final decision.

    Also, a big "Thank You" to Cape for organizing this and keeping it rolling. There is waaay more to this than simply starting a thread and telling people to post their pics.

    Patients is a virtue. You should show more respect for the process and to the judges.

    That being said rnsplg is the winner.


    Great job by everyone.

    Hope to have better results next time... congratulations to everyone. I think it’s time for me to take a little break from the intense training and strict dieting and regroup and hopefully make some changes.

    you got a bad deal with the bunk tren but you really did improve quite a bit but I know its hard to see on yourself, seeing as how you see yourself everyday...keep on doing what your doing because its working...

    ohh and obs brother you actually shocked me with your final pics you are looking great my man and almost had my number one vote but your legs are what held you back in my eyes...im sure it is tough getting an adequate workout for legs in your home gym...I had to join a gym again for that reason alone and my legs blowed up lol...your eventually going to have to if you wish to turn pro one day anyway imho...regardless great job...
