Unofficial Bbcc #50 Contest!

This is the main topic, which I hope you link to in your sig. I do wish ToM's idea would have won . . .

 

BBCC #50: The Big Change!

 

You must build three stages of an MOC. So, if you're building a Toa, you must also build it as a Matoran and Turaga.

 

-=Times=-

 

[note: This may be changed later]

 

The Contest begins now, and entries will be accepted until August 9, 2008 at 12:00 Midnight Eastern Standard Time.

 

Preliminary polls begin August 11, 2008 and close August 15, 2008.

 

Semi-final polls begin August 15, 2008 and close August 19, 2008.

 

Final polls begin August 19, 2008 and close August 24, 2008.

 

Prizes and the announcement of the winner will be given on August 25, 2008.

 

-=Rules=-

 

1) Place all entries in the entries topic which is linked below. DO NOT PUT THEM HERE.

 

2) Your entry may not have been published prior to the start of this contest.

 

3) Don't PM the contest host [or co-hosts] unless you have to. Ask questions in this topic and the host will answer it.

 

4) Painted parts are NOT ALLOWED. No non-LEGO parts. All other LEGO parts are fair game; however, for the most part, they should be Bionicle pieces and Technic pieces. There's a 50%-50% system/technic ratio. The reason is I like system, and it's more creative.

 

5) You may build a scene like in BBCC #48, but you must have the 'baby' 'teen' and 'adult' stage. You may also have more Matoran, etc. as well. POST HERE. DO NOT PM ME OR THE ASSISTANTS. You cannot switch or modify models mid contest. Once you have entered, you may not "un-enter" your models and enter new ones. You may opt to bow out of the contest for whatever reason but you cannot reenter under such a situation. If you get disqualified for any reason, you will not be allowed to reenter with another MOC in that contest.

 

6) Any flaming will result in disqualification from the contest. Competition is good if you keep it clean. Everyone play fair, NO WHINING, no insults. I reserve the right to DQ any entry at any time for any reason. If you are disqualified then any posts in my blog will be deleted. That includes the voting. I and the other contest hosts will be watching. If you do post, I will be notified and I will delete it. I will have a list of DQ members.

 

7) Absolutely, positively NO CHEATING! Anyone found to be cheating or even suspected of cheating will face immediate disqualification from this contest and will be banned from participating in future contests. Of course, I don't know if you create duplicate accounts, but if it looks like you're winning for a weird reason, I will notify an Admin to look into it.

 

8) No "this is unfair" posting. Some people have more parts, money, time, fish, gigs left on your hard drive, etc. than others. That's life; we each have to do our best with what we have. Any excessive complaining may, at the judgment of the contest runner, disqualify you.

 

9) This contest is open to all BZPower members. Anyone can enter, anyone can vote. The contest hosts may enter as well. I will not enter though. Also, if What? enters and ends up winning, he'll get the TNGM [the prize for second place] and the second place winner will receive the 6-month PMship.

 

10) Prizes are welcome. If you have something you'd like to give, please PM me.

 

11) It can't be a barely modified set - it must be 'custom'. Or else, it's just LEGO winning.

 

12) If you are not a Contest Assistant, don't answer questions.

 

-=Prizes=-

 

First Place: 6-Month Premier Membership donated by What?.

Second Place: One TNGM [Trans Neon Green Miru].

Third Place: I don't know.

 

More prizes will be given once I or the other contest hosts think of them or if someone donates more.

Oh, i know i'm a co-host, but i'm a little fuzzy here, can you have an updated version of a past MOC?

 

yes

hmm, I have another idea that can work, but i'm not sure. can i have: Evolution of stone? brown, then yellow, and at last orange?

So I decided on making a robot. Is it okay if the different stages don't really look a like as they are all intended to do different things?

Sure.

 

What if I win first prize, but want the TNGM?

 

To put it simply: Too bad. If you win a BBC contest [put on by BZPower] you don't choose the prize do you?

They have to be the same thing evolving into something else.

I have two considerations: Kraata, Rahkshi armor, Rahkshi.

And Antidermis/Makuta, Kraata, Kraata Hordika.

 

On the second one, would I have to make a full makuta, or would a zamor be allowed?

Link to comment

Sounds interesting. Might be a good chance for me to try out new ideas.

 

One question: For the life stages, would it be allowed to have them as in war position?

What I mean is something like Light Infantry-->Light Cavalry-->Knight. Or Lieutenant-->Captain-->General.

I got something...

 

Something a bit out of the ordinary...that makes everything better... :sly:

 

Wait, so the contest ends the Night of August 1st, because the Midnight after would be the deadline, right. =\

 

Around 10 days then... I better get cracking.

Completely from Velox:

 

If you're not a Contest Host, please refrain from answering questions.

It shouldn't matter, now please stop treating me like I can't read.

 

Good day.

 

It does matter. If the question has not been answered before by myself, they have to check with me or What?. Please follow the rules. For being rude to a contest assistant you have now recieved a warning. Receive another and you're Disqualified. I'm sorry, but I will not allow rudeness to contest staff.

Can an acceptable use of the three stages be a creature, Before, during, and after a transformation?

Or how about a machine, V.1, V.2, and V.3

Or a beast Living, Dying, and Undead?

What about just three different versions? Like an angel and demon version of a toa standing on either side?

..

All I'm doing is trying to narrow down ideas.

Link to comment

I belive the first three are okay, but they have to be different, and sill holding resamblance. You see, if you made a Toa->Hordika->Beast evolution, it would be 'lazyness' to just add some 'beasty' parts to the Toa you already made. But I don't know if it is so.

 

And I think the last one is not allowed. I mean, an angel, demon and Toa are just 3 different spieces, none of them evolve into eachother.

About the prizes, I say first place should get a choice. For me, a TNGM has much more value to a 6 month premium, so I would much rather have the TNGM if I were to win. And everyone know how much harder is its to get second than first. :P

 

But yeah, I think it would just be better to let the winner choose, that way it's fair.

Link to comment

Hmm... For the last one, can I clarify? My idea was to have variations on what the toa could transform into.

I'll set a scene. A toa lays dying, and will either become and angel, or a demon. It would only transform once, but I'd be depicting two things it could transform into. Get it?
