CLOSED: POLL: 2.0 Advanced Competition: Week 42 - FINAL POLL (WINNER: SlipZtrEm)

[SlipZtrEm]

Further explanation of the theme, provided by chromatic9:

Will it be the speed-rush of an inner-city blast, or the flowing roads of the country
for you this week? Chromatic judges another H2H theme, and for this, he wants you to
pick one of the above. He also adds:

"Please try not to include track elements as much as you can. Nurburgring and some others
can be shot to look like a country road. Trial Mountain has been left out because I don't
want any pics under those trees. I looked at others but didn't like Autumn Ring etc. I
wanted to leave it up to you to manipulate any track but SlipZ wanted a list so please
don't ask why or can I use a track not on the list, thanks."

CARS: Any
LOCATIONS: City: City tracks tab. Country: See list here
PHOTOTRAVEL: No
UNIQUE RESTRICTIONS: See above

Looks like this will be a close one.

Looks like this will be a close one.

and a good one!

Both are brilliant, but my vote went to Leicht! I simply love that picture 👍

 

[Tangled Web]

That's a mighty fine image from Leicht, but...

go SlipZ go! :tup:

 

[Beccosinho]

Could it be any closer.....!

 

[ghskilla]

Yep. I had just made the tie-vote. 22-22, how close...

 

[Jacob]

50/50.
Both pics are great and worthy of the win.

 

[Apperosio]

This poll deserves no loser.

 

[SlipZtrEm]

Wow. I had left the house about 10min after posting this, and got home about an hour ago. It's amazing this was such a close race! Definitely an awesome picture Leicht, I'm genuinely surprised I won out against it.

Thanks to all who voted, this is my first 2.0 win. I'll try to come up with a fun theme for next week . Also, in light of such a close finish, I'll point out there will be a slight change in the rules for polls in the future; much like the Tournament, in the case of a tie happening in the final poll for H2H weeks, there will be no tie-breaker - it will be the judge's vote that decides it. Reason being, in the H2H final polls, there's already only two choices, so a tie-breaker wouldn't solve anything. Sound good?

"…this is my first 2.0 win."

Hard to believe!

 

[SlipZtrEm]

It is! I've had one PMC win, and one 2.0. Guess I'll have to win CCCL next...

Found an old theme while digging through the ones I had provided back in GT4. It requires a bit of thinking, but it's a lot of fun, and should make for some interesting entries!

 

[Nato_777]

Then you only need to make the Secret Santa Comp official and win that too.

Indeedy, this would be a good move SlipZ

 

[Leicht]

Congratz Slip!

 

[Fido_le_muet]

Wow that was a close one!
Congrats SlipZ 👍

 

[bmxmitch]

Congrats Slipz. 👍

To be honest, I wasn't expecting you to win this week. I thought there were better images first, but the longer I looked at your pic, the more it got me. The warm tone in it is beautiful. Well done Mister!!!

 

[SlipZtrEm]

To be honest - I didn't expect to win either Mitch, not even the City side. I just really didn't like my original entry and wanted a new one in; most of my focus was on the Tournament that week! Leicht's shot is so much more moody - the post-game motion blur up on the tree tops is distracting to me, but besides that, the colours are awesome.

Nato - we'll see about that...
