What woud people think of doing an adversaries group build this winter? Since joining I've enjoyed surfing around the site and I've see some of us have some substantial kit stashes. I know I have more than I will ever live to build unless I can get my new grandson into the game. However I do love the hunt for the rare or unusual kit.
So the idea is we privately msg a willing mod who would do some team paring based on what we intend to build. ( The mod can participate of course)
Example I say I will build a Tony or a Judy and someone else builds a Hellcat or a Avenger sort of thing. The mod can pair the builders up looking at the time period of the aircraft and theater of action ( or not) . The builders start posting about their builds not revealing too much about what the aircraft is. ( example post pics of cockpits, sub assemblies, fuselage section pics etc) until it becomes obvious what he is building. Keeps the visitors/observers guessing. At the end the same votes for the winners can be done as always for the quality of builds and the 3 skill levels currently used but with a new additional twist
Say one person in the adversary team builds a Fw190 and the other a L4 Grasshopper. The mods using something as random as the flip of a coin will award the kill to one of the builders. You never know that little Grasshopper pilot may have leaned out his window and fired his 45 into the 190's oil line . After a few build sessions we may well have an ace surface.
The thing here is it just for fun and a person putting two popsicle sticks together and painting it with sharks teeth might still win out over a swiss watch maker 
Not sure if the mods have any mechanism to show kill flags under a members avatar but this might get a few more sideline people joining the builds?
Just a thought.
