Welcome to the Unofficial Screenshot Competition This is a fun and friendly alternative to the official Screenshot Competition run by DTG. Here you can share your weekly themed TSC screenshots using any 3rd party / post shot editing etc. creations which are not allowed in the official competition. Rules: TSC only shots allowed. Screenshot should be in some way (can be very tenuous) linked to the theme. Otherwise anything goes. You can enter up to 3 screenshots, posted as separate posts. You can delete and replace if you wish. 3rd party content / Reshades / Reskins etc. are welcomed but are not mandatory. Previous week's winner to decide winner (can't enter themselves). The winner chooses the new theme for next week (and becomes the new judge). The Judge of the week's decision is final. We strongly discourage any negative comment or criticism of another entry by a fellow contributor, this is a light hearted & fun contest! This is a major "we are all friendly" thread and we hope it will always remain so. Please keep chat to an absolute minimum. Entries will close at 5:00 PM PST on Friday, January 27th and will be judged by me - Buynot In the event of this weeks winner not responding by 9:00 PM PST Sunday, January 29th, a new thread will be created using the theme with the highest votes in this weeks poll.

Thanks for the submissions everyone! I'll have the winners announced shortly! I've been a bit busier than expected the last couple of days.
Alright, after a slight delay, here are the winners for this week! In third place, we have Midwest Railfan with a minor incident in railroad capital of the world. In second, we have Reef getting a bit cheeky under the wires. And finally, our winner this week is Blazin ! If there was ever a shot that embodied "Oh No!" This is definitely it! And with that, another week's worth of competition comes to a close. I'll leave you all with the clip that inspired the theme for this week (and was also some of my first exposure to trains, even though I was born 10 years after the original VHS came out)
Congratulations to the other winners and thank you for 1st place!!! Everyone had awesome contributions this week. Here is the new thread, this week's theme is all about scrap and scrapyards. https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/unoffical-screenshot-contest-2023-week-5.64529/
