+ 4 EROIDS MEMBERS PICK EBC WINNERS
We will begin voting capability for Eroids members effective Monday January 14th 8AM CST and end Wednesday January 16th at 11.59 PM CST.
Once the program is uploaded and widgets in place full instructions for voting/rating contestants will update in this thread. We are in an awsome evolution of the entire EBC program so changes can occur if they arise in this intro period.
Contestants themselves will be blocked from voting at all.
Your task as a member will be to deliver fair and unbiased voting and our contestants deserve that from us no matter who your friends are. On that note, other members will not know who you cast your ratings for or how high the marks you gave. You will attempt to follow a rating protocol we have designed to create fairness and attempt to remove bias that we all have , even if not conscious bias.
Once all the votes/ratings are complete and or time expires we will take the top 10 rated contestants and deliver them in no order to our judges. We have chosen 5 judges with experience and fairness in mind. Our judges will use the same criteria as members and rate each contestant in the top 10 in 5 categories. This process will complete judging and deliver our top 5 winners in order.
Collectively as a community we will judge and deliver the winners in order on Saturday January 19th 2013. Watch here for all updates and be ready to vote! We need our entire community to participate and continue together to build the EBC program as well as this great community we know as Eroids..THIS IS A BIG DEAL!
Thank You all for your participation on site and in the community in general. I want special thanks to go to GS and BFG for all the amazing help and idea's. BFG has been a great deal of help but in addition, he has to build programs and do enormous amounts of work to accommodate all the damn fun we have here and all the idea's we produce. He is also credited for pushing bringing you as a community in so that we can all participate in the EBC program.
All updates here and please confine questions to here and not to our overwhelmed inboxes...please! Lol
As BFG said to us earlier today...WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE COMPETITORS!

I'd like to congratulate everyone who stepped up for this ebc! Great work guys/gals!! Good luck to you.
High five bro! Everyone came in looking completely different/better! Everyone should be proud of hitting it like this. Hope to see everyone in future events.
I was thinking maybe to keep interest throughout the year instead of just twice (bulker/cutter) we could have over 20s over 30s etc etc maybe a women only contest then at the end a best of the best showdown.. that would bring a totally different format and create some awesome age group battles.
Or maybe contests between level 2 members level 3 ADV members then an almighty showdown with GURUS, PROS and MODS.
Winner takes all set-up.... sound good bros!
I want a source show down ;-)
tread-mThat would all have to be done within a larger contest brother but I like the sound of it. On its own it would stress a pretty hard to pull off roughly 3 EBC's per year and really we don't have the numbers for some of those sub categories. Now to haved an overall contest and maybe another contest within the contest between a specific group woul be entirely doable.
I think with some of those groups/categories you may get more turnout, as people would know they are able to compete within their own category as well as overall instead of against everyone, young, not as young, female, short, tall........ maybe like 3 categories? All great ideas to think about to increase turnout and entertainment value. There should also be consideration for source advertising/team wins perhaps, like "******" has produced the most winners in the EBC events , or at least a listing at the end of which sources (prominently placed) were used by each winner? First we have t get through this one! LOL ;-P
Thats it bro you got the idea!.. its like when i used to compete in the MR classes i was always put in class 1 (tall) thats when you can clearly judge a bunch of men at roughly the same height,thickness and density clearly shows up,when i have done open contests ( no height class) smaller men are like having little boys stood next to me and in a posedown if you move in front of them they are totally blocked out from judges sight,this is the only time pure size dominates due to length of muscle bellies etc.short men can look massive stood alone but you put a big fucker next to him BOOM the illusion is shattered.
phil113kgDamn Viking, you became a MOD? Congrats!!!
LOL you just noticed bro.. you trip over a FKing barbell ive had that tag bout 10wks or so lmao!
phil113kgWow I guess it's the high doses that made the muscles in my eyes so large that kept me from seeing all that well.
Lol! It's like Arnold in pumping iron. When the two winners of both classes were competung Arnold dominated in size.
That would be extremely cool!!!
The ideas are flowing! These EBCs have helped me in so many ways I'd like to see them continue and evolve for everyone! Long Live the EBC!!!!
That would be cool! Have a Nice variety going on. Everyone has a different goal so it could bring in a whole new crowd. Many folks that wanted to compete but didn't thinking it was purely "biggest takes all" on this round. If folks are gonna cycle it seems reasonable to join an EBC and push harder
You got my thoughts bro... just looking for angles to keep the boil rolling ya know,Gfit is the epitome of what friendly competition can bring out of a man
X2,
Did you answer the poll question on the main page?
Will check it now. Still figuring out the new site layout. Lol
Good luck guys and gals.. i have just scored everybody with final pics posted in EVERY catagory.. some nice surprises in there and enjoyed viewing all the fantastic transformations,personally i have my top 3 in place but! that means nothing due to not being on the final judging panel.
SERIOUSLY HIGH RESPECT FROM ME,I KNOW FIRST HAND HOW HARD YOU HAVE WORKED ITS NO EASY TASK GETTING INTO TRUE CONDITION.. PROUD TO HAVE YOU AS FRIENDS AND BIG HAND SHAKES ALL AROUND (cyber handshakes and kisses for the girls) and i hope what you have learned during this comp stands you in good stead for any further physique ventures which you may partake in the future.
Proud of you all V.
Thank you! Definitly hope to see this competition continue. It's pushed folks further and built up great comradery.
Thanks big vike! This is going to be a nerve racking couple of days! I figured you would have been on the panel for sure!
NO MODS on the panel bro... i just hope and pray the voting is done right, a lot of work has been done to get this right and if it turns into a pure popularity contest the whole thing is gonna be a fucking sham! and could jeapordise future EBCs to the point of no return... i watch from the shadows with great anticipation or it will be a sad day.
I couldn't agree more! It would make it hard for anyone to want to compete in the future that wasn't popular. But I have good faith in our community and with this being the first time go about this way there will be some kinks to work out I'm sure.
Hey Tread, it looks like some of the Judging is not complete? I have more in some categories than others.
Guys/Gals, Please try to judge each person in each category if you can. It is appreciated, we all want to know what you think in all categories. Thanks Again for all your continuing support and interest in the EBCs.
tread-mWe'll work through it brother. There was a HUGE breakdown in communication but we will deliver the proper top 5 make no mistake.
No Doubt Bro! You guys are doing a hell of a job trying to keep this all straight and moving along!
Definitely appreciated!
Same things happening to mine as well.
Well i think i just voted....I clicked the appropriate stars and they turned pink, but when the page refreshes they are all yellow again and hard to tell if the vote was submitted.
Go back to the main page and see if the # of votes changed for the person you judged. Please judge as many as you can.
I will judge all that finished if i can get this shit right lol where do you see the # of votes?
Thanks Bro, Sorry about that, it looks like only the contestant can see how many votes in each category.
Ok, well i have voted again so hopefully it worked like it was supposed to. Good luck!
AnonIm voting for whoever has the nicest ass.... so, my vote goes to FAST48 ;) LOL sorry Wiegs
The ghetto booty does it again! Lmao!
HEY NOW!!!!! My bum isn't "thaaaat" bad!! Fast You MF-er!!! I knew it!!! I should have been on them stairs an extra 15!
Hold on Muta, don't go making quick decisions. I didn't showcase my Glutes in these pics butt.... LOL ;-P
tread-mYou too? Yeah man I keep thinking how bad I wanna just take a nibble. I don't know if you've had the pleasure of seeing video or not but its not just that baby got back , he pop it when walks too playa! I'll shoot a vid over when he was on rehab at the hardrock last year!
But...can he pop bottles!? Mmm HMMMmmm ...that just happened!
AnonPop, Lock & Drop it homie. LOL
tread-mBOOM!
I hope Fast wins this!you got my vote brother.team muta!
I am really excited/curious to see this system in action! Hope the community can deliver like I know they can!!! Good luck to all of you guys! Made this a very hard competition! I can only imagine what the final judges will have to go through! Good luck judges!!!
Damn this is cool
Anonwill we be able to vote for 1st 2nd and 3rd ? or will this just be one vote for the competitor we feel made the single biggest transformation ?
tread-mYou will be able to rank each member according to protocol in direction of 5 categories if it all goes down as we plan. Essentially helping pick the top 10 that will go to the judges hands.
Look down a couple at Tread's response to me. It would be great if everyone could score all competitors according to the rules that will be posted. Thanks in advance for participating, you been following pretty closely and now you get a chance to make your opinion count!
Can't wait to start voting!! All the competitors did an amazing job!
tread-mRead above...Monday 8AM
BostonSo is there gonna be a rule in place to protect us from cheating?? What is someone went and created a bunch of fake accounts to run up votes for themselves? It could happen right?
tread-mAt the top end those things can be seen, not in the public eye but behind the scenes that's very easy to pick up. BFG will also likely have the criteria of minimum time here built into the vote count. So maybe as in someone giving a thumbs up that is new, it shows but does not count. Either way, those things are obvious to him though...HE SEE'S EVERYTHING IN A WAY WE CAN'T. BEHIND THE SCENES.
So your saying I should be wearing something while I'm surfing the site? LOL ;-P
