As I've posted, there have been quite a few GBC competitions that were held entirely online and had none of the problems you've mentioned. Power requirements don't vary, coolness is easily gauged, reliability is assumed. It's much easier to build a functional module compared to making a video where a nonfunctional module appears functional, doing it right is easier than faking it, so it's reasonable to assume that entries aren't dropping every other ball. Also, we're not looking to find out which one is scientifically proven to be the best module. Often, competitions have specific requirements (make a themed module, make a wheel motion, seed part challenge) and *that* is the strongest metric by which entries are judged. There's no reason to score color choices or piece counts to the hundredth of a percent I would understand the confusion if this hadn't been done before, but it has, plenty of times. Online GBC competitions aren't new

Yeah, except that doesn't hold true for almost any GBC contest I've seen before. Both of these https://www.greatballpit.com/2018/12/2018-great-ball-pit-challenge-winners.html https://www.greatballpit.com/2019/11/challenge-2019-winners.html had totally reasonably-sized winners, even though there were plenty of bigger and flashier entries. Also yes, the contest you described does sound pretty boring. Might as well specify that all of the parts used must be Dark Bluish Gray. GBC needs a bit of creativity, it's not just engineered skeletons Kinda wonder how this would be a GBC contest if we wouldn't be using the GBC standard. If it's just experimenting with moving balls of any size, then go for that, but calling it GBC when it isn't GBC just.....doesn't make a ton of sense

There's actually a GBC competition that's beginning later this month! It's being hosted here https://discord.gg/3p8xMKn

My friend and I are massive Lego/superhero fans and have *always* wanted to go to Comic-con, and we live really close to NY. Also, I've been featured in a few newspapers, so I'm very good at reporting. Count me in!
