BULiK Posted December 26, 2013 Share Posted December 26, 2013 Hey, I was wondering if there was any possibility of another extension to the contest. I have the majority of my entry done, but am currently hindered by the celebrations of christmas and the subsequent family gatherings, that I can't finish or take pictures of what I have currently by the time the entry period ends. An extension of around a week and a half would be greatly appreciated, but by no means delay the contest for a lazy member like me if you don't want to.

InnerRayg Posted December 30, 2013 Author Share Posted December 30, 2013 There were other members with similar issues - they politely sent me a PM explaining the problem and I entered them because I'm a pretty understanding guy. Maybe you guys might try something like that, or just politely post your entries here instead of posting things that are unnecessarily angry? I've basically said yes to every request anyone has posted here about the contest, if you had issues with the forums I'd probably be cool with giving you a break. But I mean it's two days later now and I'm not really willing to postpone the judging by that much so make it by today or early tomorrow after that I'm cutting this off regardless.

Voxumo Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Question will a article be posted on the front page that links to the topic when the winners are announced or will it just be posted in this topic?

InnerRayg Posted January 7, 2014 Author Share Posted January 7, 2014 (edited) I'm glad you enjoyed it. Anyway, it's been a truly grueling experience but the winners have been decided on. The sad fact is that all three of us had a REALLY hard time coming to a single decision - everyone had their favorites and frankly I wish I had another three or four prizes to give away because there was at least that many who could have just easily been on this list. Still, we had to come to a consensus, so here our results. Each one ended up being a particular favorite for each judge, so I asked everyone to give a short write up about why they ended up picking it. In First place: Paleo's Chivalry is not dead. This MoC really proved that size isn't everything. Its sleek form and bright colors really attract the eye, and the inclusion of those flick fire missiles really sold it as a Lego set. This one was advocated for very strongly by Deevee, who had this to say about it: "It's pretty, it's clean, it's pretty, I want to see Ray draw it." In Second place: .:Yio:.'s Mini Tank. Another set that really sold us on its great silhouette. The instant readability and playful action one can envision with this build really impressed me personally. I was a strong advocate for this little guy and the cute little blasters and rollability (is that a word?) of the tires are what did it for me. In Third place: The 10th Rider's The Albino Turtle. Lest you start thinking this contest was all about the small MoCs, the Albino Turtle really stood out for its unapologetic yet sleek bulkiness as well as very creative use of parts. Tufi was a particularly strong advocate for this one, and had this to say about it: "That one's probably my favourite". Haha okay I forgot to ask her for a specific quote but you get the idea! Like I said, this was a really hard contest with a lot of great entries. It ended up being a question of what we could most agree on rather than what each of our personal top 3 were, and a few of all our choices got knocked out of the running in the name of consensus. Consequently There were a lot of models I'd still like to use in the project even though they didn't win, and if that's the case with one of yours I'll be sending a message to ask you for your permission on that. As for the winners, I will be sending out PMs relatively soon about addresses for your prizes and that sort of thing but if you want to get the ball rolling by sending me your address now, feel free haha. Thanks to everyone for their participation, I hope it was fun and maybe we can do this again next year!

The 10th Rider Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Whoa! I almost didn't enter, but when I saw it was space themed (my favourite theme to build) and needed something to do over break I caved in...Glad I did! Congrats to the other winners and thanks a bunch to InnerRayg and the other judges! Honestly I don't build much anymore, but something like this with a set theme and time frame is great for getting me to sit down and whip something up. Thanks again, this really just made my day!

InnerRayg Posted January 9, 2014 Author Share Posted January 9, 2014 A point of clarification: It might take me a little time to figure out what other MoCs I'll be needing exactly in the upcoming story this is for (the nature of the contest was to leave the specifics open so whatever won I could use, right?), so when I said I'll be PMing some others to ask for their permission to use their models, I meant in a sort of hazy, "at some point in the future anywhere from a few days to a month or so from now". Sorry for the lack of clarity. Latest Update: STORM AND SAND Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
