New Idea...Unit Creator Lottery

Like the unit lottery, only the random person chosen hosts their own good old fashioned Unit lottery.

With my opening post I'm included myself in this.

Whom of the others are brave enough to chance being randomly choosen to have a unit lottery?

Héhé. Not me. I'm already too busy. But it's a fun idea.

I'll throw in, especially since (based on the last few unit contests) my units are far from anyones' favorites, and I'm not likely to get too many entries in my lottery (If I'm picked, that is)

Each participant put one and only one entry in the topic, with the unit I wish the unit creator will make. After a while, the topic is stopped and the creator randomly chooses an entry and make the unit.

I would've put myself in, but I just made a huge commitment to the Zelda Mod (lots and lots of boats!). Sorry, great idea tough!

It seems unnecessarily complicated, really. If a unit creator is willing to do a unit lottery, they might as well just do one, rather than have a double lottery before anything gets made.

I still don't get it

So Sword_of_Geddon is the one who will make a unit randomly chosen from some of the units that the others request?

This lottery would have a unit creator chosen at random. The unit creator would then host their own unit lottery.

I've thought about hosting a lottery, since my modelling skills have gotten better; although, I still couldn't model some of the things that I'm sure would be requested. Were I to host one, I'd have to have some amendments for units that I have absolutely no interest in.

No problem Utah. Half the fun is making units that YOU would enjoy using in your game. Theres still plenty of good Kal-el drawings out there for example. Or maybe some picture you've found online looks promising. Let the one who does the lottery set the rules.
