HASTA PURA Award RULES Discussion
#1
[size=150:3b2i64h2] Roman Army Talk v2 proudly presents the HASTA PURA award for RAT members! [/size]

The HASTA PURA will be given as a permanent medal to RAT members with an extraordinarily well reconstructed kit / gear / display:

How do you get the HASTA PURA?

Each RAT member who wants to get the HASTA PURA can make one (1) thread in this subforum. In this thread you can present your equipment / gear / reconstruction(s). Any other posts in this subforum will be deleted without notification.

*edit. 18.05.2006*
Here are the new rules for the Hasta Pura. See also below on page 2. Big Grin

Here a few changes to the Hasta Pura award.

1. The Hasta Pura award will in future be given by a group of Forum Members. These Forum members are those who have received the award already, and me. We have a discussion bord, where we decide who will get the next Hasta Pura.

2. Nominees will have to follow a model nomation to make their own nomination. Any nominations that do not follow the model nomination must have a darn good reason for not doing so, and name this reason in the presentation.

3. The terminology for a "reconstruction" is quite clear: Reproduce an object with the methods with which it was made. As this is usually hardly achieved, it is O.K. to present any "reproductions", as long as the presentation clearly states why a compromise in the reconstruction process was made.

4. Nominees may only participate with one (1) object.

5. Nominations can be made by any registered forum user.

6. The award will no longer be given at a certain point, nor will there be aby longer any deadlines. When a very good contribution is made, the award will be given



Presentations are to be made in the following order:


1.: You must provide at least one good picture of the object.

2.: You must name the original that is reconstructed, cite the publication(s) concerned with the object, and provide (a) picture(s) of the original.

3.: You must name who made the reconstruction, with what method(s), with what material(s), and you must name any compromises in material and reconstruction method that were made during creation of the object.

4.: Only the text and pictures to be seen in the presentation are used for appraisal, no links. If you have more than three pictures you may make several postings.

I will leave the original posting below:

*edit*

To present your equipment the following requirements must be fulfilled:

1.: You must name the original that is reconstructed, cite the publication(s) concerned with the object, and, if possible, provide (a) picture(s) of the original.

2.: You must name who made the reconstruction, with what method(s), with what material(s), and you must name any compromises in reconstruction and reconstruction method that were made during creation of the object.

3.: You must provide at least one good picture of the object.

4.: You may not simply post a link to your nice and shiny prepared site displaying your equipment with tons of pics and blinking "give me the HASTA PURA" signs in 45 different colors (you get the message).
You CAN put in links to movies. (like this one: [url:3b2i64h2]http://mitglied.lycos.de/tanja1hecht/hpbimg/konamiplatt3mb.wmv[/url] <= right click and "save as..." (3mb) Tongue )

5.: You must be nominated for the Hasta Pura by your fellow RAT'ers in the 'HASTA PURA nomination' thread




You can participate with a single object, however more might (but must not) be better.

That's a dead link. Lycos won't allow pictures or movies to be used that way. :?

No, it's not. Just tried it out. As I wrote: Right click, "Save Target as.." then open in Media Player (e.g.)

Didn't work in Firefox, but worked in IE. Must be a Netscape problem (or Lycos).

Greetings,
when I open in IE it goes to a Lycos Homebuilder page then jumps to another page, which does not have the 'right click - save as' option
I then copied and pasted the addy into Firefox and it opened directly in Media Player..... :roll:
confusing......
yes, the music is nice...!

You don't even need to open it. Uwe is correct, you can just right-click the link in the RAT message and save it to your hard disc. Open it from there and all works just fine. Well, it did for me, in the end. Big Grin

Okay, y'all. Nuff talking about a link that was only there as an example. How's about some nominations!

I nominate LUCIUS ALFENUS AVITIANUS for the HASTA PURA AWARD.

Appart from being one of my best friends (that has nothing to do with this nomination), I think the quality of his equipment is supreme, being made by him all but his helmet (hand made by an English craftman).

He is an archeologist and is experimenting in the ancient methods of craft making and was congratulated by Godfrey Night himself when we all met at Archeon and checked his equipment.

And a very important think: he is always thinking in improving his equipment.

I nominate Matt Lukes for the award. He does a lot of research and always strives to make things as close to the originals as possible.

How about some pictures of your gear guys? Smile

Kind regards,
