WHERES MY BLOODY 2ND PRIZE TROPHIE? THATS RIGHT, 2ND PRIZE AGAIN. ALWAYS TO THE SAME PERSON. WHEN IS THIS CLUB GONNA GET HALF SERIOUS ABOUT JUDGING CARS? I DONT MEAN PAYING PRO'S TO DO IT BUT HOW ABOUT GETTING OUR VOLUNTEER JUDGES TO SCOPE THE RANGE BEFORE ACTUALLY JUDGING THEM. MY ENGINE BAY KICKS ARSE BUT ONLY GOT 5 MORE POINTS THAN THE GUY THAT ALWAYS COMES FIRST AND HIS E/BAY IS PLAIN. OR IS IT BECAUSE IM NOT 80 YO AND DONT SOCIALISE WITH CLUB HIERACHY? KEEP THE TROPHIE IM DOIN WHAT MY MATES TOLD ME TO DO AGES AGO, IM NOT RENEWING MY M/SHIP.

It's a shame this wasn't handled a little more constructively.
Nobody has enquired with me about judging of cars or concerns with the process between now and Bella Vista ocurring over two months ago now. Nor has anybody expressed displeasure with the results. If anybody had complaints I genuinely would take the time to listen and discuss the matter.
If you had attempted to speak to me, you would have found that the judges were instructed to familiarise themselves with the field prior to judging. You also would have found that had you approached me about it you would have been able to have a discussion about our respective opinions on the process and perhaps come out of it with a different way of seeing things rather than anonymously posting your assumption that the process is biased or corrupt which discredits so many innocent people who are trying to do something in volunteering for their club.
I don't think the process is perfect, and a lot of excellent cars go home with nothing - not many get so upset about it though. Most are happy to enjoy the camraderie of the day and consider a trophy a bonus if they get one.
Rather than registering this username weeks ago and starting this thread today, you should have picked up the phone and spoken to myself or someone else on the committee about your concerns - it would have been far more adult and constructive.
I'll look into the matter of trophies tomorrow and see what is amiss.

No.1 I'm sorry this post finally made you do something about this trophie. No. 2 I've been a judge at a previous B/V show and was amazed that none of us were instructed on the judging process. I (and the other 5) were given a piece of paper & pen and were told to take 5 points away from 100 for every defect, and that is the score. No 3. I'm not anonymous, you have my details. Where were you going to send my trophie then?. Did you ever have any intention of sending it? No 4. I'm adult enough thanks. Perhaps you should try to be some & chuck in a bit of responsibility as well, maybe then I would have got my trophie.
