Hi Mountainman
I am only replying so you know I'm not ignoring this.
I don't read MR and don't know how it was presented, however, this is probably akin to why I don't read MR anymore.
There are so many great modelers out there (many of them frequent this forum) that would never get a sentence in MR. When I read it years ago it almost seemed that there were a few modelers on the staff and it was the same layouts over and over, even the ads were practically the same.
My opinion would be to feature the individual modelers. Any one with money can buy a pike. That is not building one.
I think it is the same as some TV shows where people build a house by hiring contractors, then they say "Look at the house I built".
My brothers built 28 houses and I helped on 4 of them. No contractors involved.
