C65 Trident Classic - Elimination Round 1
It seems it has been a while coming, but the time for actual voting has come. We have many excellent entries in both the C5 Slimline and C65 categories. The team thanks everyone who has participated and we hope you had some fun coming up with these design suggestions.
A special Thank You to the PhotoShop team of Goose383 and welshlad who have donated their time to bring most of these ideas to life.
We have 29 entries for the C5 Slimline and 31 entries for the C65. We must narrow down our choices to a more manageable level.
I would like to remind everyone that the more changes we make, the higher the cost. Some will be easier than others to change. Regardless, you need to remember that the FLE, regardless of which model, will sell for more than the posted price. We will get estimates when the field is narrowed down a bit.
This elimination round is to reduce the choices to 3 in each category. Each model will then go to a semifinal round to select a finalist to go head to head in the final round to decide what will be the 2015 FLE.
Only the entry numbers will be shown here on the voting page. For photos and descriptions of entries, please visit the entry topics for the C65 Trident here.
This first elimination round will give you 5 votes to use in each category. You may use as many as you wish, or none at all, but only the top 3 (and ties for) will move on to the next round. You may change your votes. The voting period will last for 7 days.

I think something might be up with this poll compared to the C5 one, it only allowed mt to vote for one entry and I couldn't change my vote after that either

Yup, I PM'd Kip fifteen minutes after he posted the poll but he is likely asleep now being on the east coast. This poll will have to be edited and fixed. Let the conspiracy theories simmer over night by the C65 fans... Go C5!

The poll is now corrected. Up to 5 votes, which can be changed. The poll will run for 7 days.

Re: C65 Trident Classic - Elimination Round 1
just realised i left the missF 'pink' in the wrong thread...... no chance of any votes at all now!
i've voted for the welshlad 'yellow' instead
watching you fail in your quest for a “one watch” has been great entertainment

Re: C65 Trident Classic - Elimination Round 1
I've changed my vote temporarily because of this mix up.

Re: C65 Trident Classic - Elimination Round 1
I really hope we don't have to start this poll again after 95 votes have already been cast. It would be better, if possible, to split 27 into 27A and 27B and ask just those who have voted for 27 to change their vote for either A or B. But I'm not sure that polls can be amended on the system after they have started.
