CMF Series 22
Hey all, I know there was another thread with some speculation about Series 22 in the CMF line, but I don't think there's been a thread since the figs actually came out. So let's talk about them. Most of these photos are from Jonathan Corbett's Flickr stream, and the links lead there. I'm guessing e...

Re: CCC - 19 - Bring Back the Fun!
Huge congratulations to the winners and our new Master Builder! There were so many great entries this year. A huge thanks to Blue who headed this up, and to the team of judges. I had nothing to do with the organization, but did help score the entries, and I have to say it was really tough. I'll go t...

Re: Flickr LEGO Build & Capture contest winners
I love the tree - I'd be interested to know if it looks at good in real life (or from other angles) - if so, I'll have to incorporate this type of tree into my builds. Really impossible to say, as he just posts one or at most two perfectly composed shots of each of his scenes. So unless he has a se...

Re: CCC 19 - The Question Thread
AKB, Traditionally we've said that a MOC couldn't have been publicly displayed before the announcement date - either online or at some AFOL event - but that you could have been working on it before. But Blue is running the show so ask her for the final word. BTW, those MOCs that people were working ...

Re: Lego Moc update!
Hey, I'm assuming Bishons = Minoboys? If so, I just wanted to note that I really like that working windmill. The landscaping is good, so it's not just a flat scene, and the use of plant elements helps smooth out the hill and make it look natural, also the curve of the path. The SNOT work to make the...

Re: CCC 19 - The Question Thread
Hey, Just in support of what Blue said above, as someone who has judged a ton of LEGO contests over the years, it's never been a question of who has the really rare parts in obscure colors, or about who just has the sheer volume of bricks to pull off a ten foot tall tower.* It's about the cool idea,...

Re: Brickscalibur "The New Annual Winter Castle Contest" & C
Hey all, Looking at the Brickscalibur announcement, that very definitely feels aimed at CCC, and to that extent is probably a fair hit. See the public apology I just posted in announcements. For over a decade I would say it was fair to argue that CCC was the best open-to-all annual LEGO contest in t...

A public apology
Hi all, I've said this behind the scenes to other admin and others by direct message, but I just wanted to post a public apology. After being a member of this forum since day 2 of it's public existence in 2003 (Grr, some people beat me to joining), and becoming an admin a year later, I started to pu...
