[Megatron1505]

Nice one Atzec.

[Megatron1505]

Just paid for my Sams from BIG, woo hoo !!!

[thewickett]

and to think I was doubting if this contest would get enough interest.. haha

Is it bad that I'm just as excited to see the SDA pair worn in as I am my own pair?

[elclintor]

hey Mega,

Did you put me on the reserve list?

I would love to participate if someone backs out..

Before I started this thread I actually PM'd Beatle to ask her to delete it after a couple of weeks if no-one was interested, shows what I know eh?

Hey guys, I just sent an email to try to get K-san to judge this. I hope he will! Cross my fingers!

[kiya]

Wait, why did we close it?

Why not keep it open to as many that want to join?

[Megatron1505]

Unfortunately it doesn't look like Gordon will be joining the judging panel, he has requested that his seat go to a "member of the public".

[Megatron1505]

We didnt, its open to all, but it looks like some people haven't read that part. I originally intended it to be an all comers competition (but I didnt think it would be this popular), then thought about capping it to stop it getting messy.

I think that , as with all competitions, some people will drop out along the way so the hard core will remain anyway.

[lenn]

i could ask daniel of dc4 berlin?

[Megatron1505]

Cool, go for it.

[lenn]

done, i'll await his reply. will update tomorrow.

Well since I was one of the last to be able to be apart of this contest I am very happy! So I took pics of my samurais with todays newspaper, and they have only been worn 3 times. There isn't much wear on them, they do have a tiny bit of fading (crotch area), well more like some electric blue showing so no worries there and I'm not going to start wearing these until I see that everyone has theirs so its fair.

Im stoked on this competition. dude just wear them 2 years is too long of a time to be affected by a few extra weeks of wear

[beautiful_FrEaK]

man...just was away a few hours tonight and *zoooom*, look what happened. thread explosion

great to have all these VIPs on board (judges I mean).

My opinion: Don't let it go too big although there will be lots of drop outs in the long run. Let's keep a little "family-feeing"

I totally agree, I´d also like to keep this a little smaller with a "family feeling" to it. Although I understand there´s alot of people that want to join in on the fun.

This competition is going to be great! I just hope all participants keep updating and showing pics. That´s what makes the whole thing going ofcourse.

Beautiful Sam´s up there as well!

As for a prize I like the idea of a belt. Maybe we can one of the many talented craftsmen here on Sufu make one with some heavy denim and leather.

[t704x]

Why not seek someone with the 21/23/26 oz Jeans from Naked & Famous?

I would love to see them compared to the "big" brands

I have a pair of the 24oz and the 26oz. If it's not too late, I would love to join the contest with the 24oz. obviously I am new to sufu (lurked for a while before creating an account) and this would be my first contest. only around 300 pairs of the 24oz were made by naked & famous and I grabbed one before they became unavailable. I think Megatron said you can't have worn the denim prior to 1/12/10 and I started wearing these in february 2010. if I can join the contest a day late that would be AWESOME but if not no hard feelings. cheers!

I think Megatron was using the English date format dd/mm/yy rather than the US one, so this would mean 01 Dec 2010 rather than Jan 12 2010.

^he was talking about 1st december 2010. you started in february 2010. 10 months too early. sorry.

just gave my s0110xj's a soak so im ready to wear but my computer got messed up so i cant post pics untill i get that sorted , glad im finaly gonna give these jeans some wear

[DFreshLeish]

from SExDBxSxS 12 thread:

STarted wearing Jan 1 2011. Initial fit pics after hem. Ill try to post as close as I can to the first of every month.

#20 checking in, will get better pics/better lighting soon.

I don't see the point in letting in duplicates (more than 1 contender with the same model). Too many of the same model (SExDBxSxS for instance) will skew the chances.

[kiya]

I think to really see different results we shouldn't limit what jeans are allowed. I've seen quite a few contests and you'd be surprised how different the same jeans can turn out on different people.

[laxlife1234]

Well since this is a different contest, I took different pics, so here is another fit of the sammies:

[jyoni]

Awesome contest but I don't have anything on hand, nor am I inclined to buy some atm

[ronaldlsh]

Thanks for letting me in!
