    I have been under the impression that Pete has always chosen POTW winners. However, and I don't mean this as a negative reflection on the winners, it has seemed to me that someone else has been choosing the winners for the past couple of months. I realise the photos can only be chosen from what's entered, but there has been an inconsistency with past POTWs, so much so that I have noticed a new trend. Am I the only one who has noticed?

    Nope.

    And I don't mean that in a 'flippant' way.

    yea, i'm choosing them now Tongue

    Only kidding. As far as im aware, Pete is still the only one who chooses ECs, HCs and the POTW. Until we figure out how to build a robot that can perform the same action then im afraid it's going to stay that way.

    I don't see much difference. Maybe there are a few different uploader's now to a couple of years ago - people come & go.

    There are a few over the past little while that definitely don't look Petey to me.

    You could ask Pete directly instead of requesting views from uniformed members of this forum, I'm sure you'll get to your answer much quicker and more accurately.

    We are currently plain clothed. The nylon thong in the current uniforms caused a very unsightly rash.

    There is no difference...and it's actually not about taste, so the criteria should be similar, just the wow factor that's becoming diluted, having done the same thing for 10 years. So pics I gave an Ec to 10 years ago probably wouldn't get one now, other than that I'm not sure why the choice no longer looks like mine?

    Oh yes I forgot to mention the cost to get one has risen above inflation so that might be the reason, people can't afford to pay to win any more Wink
