Hello dear friends !
WristScan is a unique weekly community event, held every week between Friday and Sunday with photos and comment posted by our community members.
WristScan is all about friendly competition, banter and open to all members of our community so please join in. I guarantee you will receive a warm welcome from the WristScan team and our friendly community.
You can find the live thread on both the “Home Page” and under the WristScan tab in the menu bar. It’s probably worth looking at the WristScan archive to pick up some ideas and get a feel for the weekly event.
Each week a new theme is announced midweek by the event host and the live theme thread is then posted on Friday at around 13:00 GMT for you to start posting your photos and comments.
Friendly Competition
Three categories are available for you to enter your photos under, giving you three opportunities to win or be given an honourable mention. They are:
Watch Of The Week
This category will be judged by the host of WristScan and is awarded to the watch that the host believes, best represents the WristScan theme. Watch value is not the decisive factor !
Best Wrist Shot
Judged to be the best photograph of a watch on a wrist entered.
Best Static Shot
Judged to be the best photograph of a static watch, (not on a wrist) entered.
The winners of each category are announced in a “Judges Verdict” thread posted on Sunday at approximately 17:00 GMT.
Please Note: The start and finish times can change due to the WristScan host and Judges being different time zones. We are a global community.
Please keep in mind that the emphasis is on joining in and having fun and it’s a great way to make friends within our community.
Helping Out …
You could participate by offering to judge a category or even become one of our chosen Guest Hosts, when you have joined us for WristScan and got the hang of things.
