CONGRATS KARTIK 

SUBBU

Hoping to announce it in a week...  Let us keep everyone guessing until then  >

Or, we can have some fun doing a poll, trying to see what people would like (I am hoping the beginners here will all vote, and swing the polls towards their opinion, because RC India has a bias towards them  )

The poll will posted separately in a little bit.

Does the Sweep stake really matter   to majority of the members should be the poll I guess    how many really pay attention to it  .
This should be an option in the poll.
Why not have some kind of competition instead  like we had though at an earlier poll

Of course many of the members here are already established, and do not need any sweepstakes.  But there is always a set of beginners, who may benefit from it.  It also helps in a small part of keep RC India lively.

A competition is hard to do at the national level (works best at the city level); and even if we did that, the benefit would most likely go to the people who are already experienced and established.

Anwar ,
Why not have a competition to make the best beginners Plane for Eg  with the criterion being
1) Ease of building
2) Availability of material
3) Economy.
4) Ability to fly at a local Park or school ground
5) originality of design

The reason I am saying this is cos I believe that this hobby can grow only if the youth ( students ) can form flying clubs and fly at their college/school  grounds without need to go long distances to fly .
The reason this hobby has grown so much in US is because guys fly at  back yards , streets , parks , playgrounds etc.

So why not have the experienced members here use their experience to design a plane for a beginner  

I am fully open to RC-For-All organizing and conducting such a competition.  RC India can be the medium/platform.  It does not have to mixed up with the sweepstakes thing we are running.

You have our full support 

Sure  would be a good idea to launch the Website  under construction now

You will be the Judge for sure 

Thanks again to RC-For-All for sponsoring the charger !

Anwar,
Thanks for the detailed list, but see how I reached my conclusion.

In the 'Show Own Post' tab, I am presented with a total of 152 post (153 including this one). Each post is timestamped and I am going with the assumption that the pages in the 'Sow Own Post' appear in descending order of date.

Post # 1 to #5 are dated11th Oct or later
Post #122 onwards are dated 3rd Aug or earlier
So the effective number of posts for the period (4th Aug to 10th Oct)  = 121-5 = 116

So my submission is that if your logic for filtering the data from the DB is correct, then the 'Show Own Post' page is reporting incorrectly or the my assumption is incorrect.

Regards
Pankaj

I would suggest you verify the threads based on the list above, if you want to get into such detail. 

The possibility of difference between our numbers would be that I used the server time (which is US Central time) versus IST.  But then I have been doing all sweepstakes based on server time, so I am consistent   

Come on Anwar, who would want to get into such details!!! Its just that when you announced the winner along with the posts, it got me wondering - "Did I only post 5-6 entries before the sweepstakes?", and hence my little research. 

Anyway, I do appreciate all the hardwork that you do to keep this forum alive.

I would be awaiting for a competition and the website.
