Wow! Congrats Mr. Caffine.

Trust me, I think I'm funnier than you do.
Why do I have to add the word "minifig" to my spell checker every time I use it?!

Re: Mini Castle Contest VI Final Prize Update!
Hey,
Congratulations to TMC on winning both categories. There were so many awesome MOCs that I'm sure this was difficult to judge. Dan, I'm amazed you did it so quickly. BTW, are you going to post this on MicroBricks, or would you like me to?

Re: Mini Castle Contest VI Final Prize Update!
What the...?
Just got back from a couple of days away with work and saw this.
Thank you so much for picking out my stuff. I thought the standard was pretty good this year and I would have been delighted to place, never mind win.
That has genuinely made my day.
Thanks for running this contest every year. It's becoming something of a unmissable fixture.

Increasingly irritated by the way real-world work impinges on building time...

Re: Mini Castle Contest VI Final Prize Update!
Could you do me a favor, Mr. Toomuchcaffiene, and not, like, ever enter a contest again, or sumthin? Thanks.
If I were to make something out of LEGOs, I would probably use LEGOs. Pretty advanced stuff going on up in my head.
Re: Mini Castle Contest VI Final Prize Update!
Well, I had a great deal of fun with this contest. Cheers TooMuchCaffeine on a couple of great models. I think you've raised the bar for the rest of us. Thanks also to Robin Hood (and others, if I'm missing them) for running this event. As I mentioned previously, I'm new to miniscale, but I really enjoyed it. Hope we can all do it again next year.
