I see, it was very hard to find a screen from one Ottd-game and give it to the contest. Someone search still at these time for a screen.
So the next Theme musst be small, so everyone find quickly the right game for the right screen.
I think, a game starts up with a line from a coalmine to power plant. So every one has a Coalminestation. Let me see yours.

I congratulate with the victory of the Sallarsahr. A beautiful shot . What the struggle was for the vote. All three screenshots claimed the victory .

Now, does it have to be a coal mine, or a station that has large usage of coal?

I would say it has to be a coal mine. I guess Sallarsahr can say otherwise.

dang.
I had a really good one of a metal plant (FIRS) with a good coal supply at least (well of everything really)

Yes Swissfan, it has to be a coal mine.

What was the last day to send picture?

Oh my Gosh!!! I did look it, and I didnt saw it!
What ever the cause was, I leave fast, before I make myself complete idiot!

Thanks anyways Swiss!

Roll up, Roll up.

Don't be shy. Not long to go now to get your entries in. Standard is excellent this month!

I dont actually have any coal mine stations on my current games. (wut?)

Perhaps this month's theme is a bit *too* specific?

I like mocking up a screenshot once in a while, but I just don't like coal stations. I'm letting this one pass

I thought that at the outset but a fair few entries have been submitted.

Well, I'm looking forward to the end of this month's competition; the submissions, the poll results and next month's theme

March SOTM has now shut. Voting is now open. Here, in no particular order, are the screenshots for Coal mine Stations:

Some general comments from this month:

- I refer everyone to the rules which state that using graphic programs to enhance screenshots is permitted - just for clarification as some people asked.

- Screenshots must be no larger than 800x600. Some are this month and this cannot continue as it is unfair to restrict some and not others so from now on I won't display any that are larger. I will try and PM you back if I realise you have sent me one that is too large.

- Someone has suggested perhaps just numbering the entries and referring to said number in the poll to make this anonymous. What is the consensus on this?

about the anonymous-making part:


I think (IMHO) that we (as a community) are intelligent enough to vote for the most "lovely/beautiful" screenshot and do not need any anonymous-making in order to decide which "we" think is best.

You should not accept any screenshots bigger than 800 x 600 and I think anonymous poll isn't needed, because I vote for best screenshot not best person and I guess other people do same way. This is pretty smart community and I like to now who entered contest when I first see screenshots.

Anonymous voting doesn't hurt anyone, does it? I say yes - I mean, you can always reveal who they came from afterwards, and it makes for a nice guessing game too
