Posted July 8, 200717 yr Alrighty Everybody, today I'm Hosting a Jurassic Park Contest. Yoda and Hobbes Have heard 'bout my Life dream... to host a Jurassic Park Contest! The Rules are Simple. RULES: ALL entries must be built by August 25, 2007 No Cheating Jurassic Park MOC's ONLY No Technic Dinosaurs or creations, just dinsaurs Dinosaurs can be Brick-built or the dino's that Lego have made CATAGORIES: Movie or book: This can be a Scene or Vingette from the Movie or Book. They Can Be from all 3 movies and 2 books Paddock or Park: You Can make your own Paddock or park. They have to have Dinosaurs and fences (or the boxes from the movies. Freestyle: You Can make ANYTHING as long As they relate to jurassic park I wont be here untill next sunday (EASTERN time) So i'll make the entry thread when I get Back. Jurassic Park ON!!!
July 8, 200717 yr No Technic Dinosaurs or creations, just dinsaurs Could you rephrase that, as of now it doesn't make much sense.
July 8, 200717 yr I beleive he means that you cannot enter Technic Dinosaurs. Only brick built or offical Dinos.
July 8, 200717 yr Sounds interesting Corpreal, but do you have a prize? Surely a life long dream to hold a contest should warrant a prize. ;-) I think EB has a pretty solid Jurassic Park Fanbase, so your contest should do fairly well. Good luck!
July 9, 200717 yr No Cheating What do you define as cheating? No Technic Dinosaurs or creations, just dinsaurs Why on earth not? :-( Does this mean zero technic parts? Does this include Bionicle? Why? And err... why? Technic is Lego and many Technic parts, such as the beams, pins and axels, have been around for years. So you would prefer I use the Dino Attack dinosaurs over a custom one that included technic parts? Please clarify.
July 9, 200717 yr Hey Corpreal, this sounds like it could be a fun contest, however, if you want as many entries as possible, I would suggest waiting a bit. There are two or three other contests going on right now, so it'd probably be a good idea to wait until those are done at least.
July 9, 200717 yr I agree this should wait until the other contests are finished. A prize might also be nice... If you don't have any material prizes, maybe you could convince the Admins to award a special banner/title/etc. to the winner? Steve
July 15, 200717 yr Author Great Idea Athos!!! You should enter your Comic. And by no Technic Dinos I mean you can't use dino's made from Technic. And who highlighted Jurassic park?
July 15, 200717 yr And by no Technic Dinos I mean you can't use dino's made from Technic. But what is technic? Beams and gears are clear, but are holed 1s, 2s and 4s banned as well? Pins? Axels?
July 15, 200717 yr Great Idea Athos!!! You should enter your Comic. And by no Technic Dinos I mean you can't use dino's made from Technic. And who highlighted Jurassic park? When you search for a term it comes back highlighted. Did you search for Jurassic Park to find the thread? If so, that's why. :-)
July 16, 200717 yr Author Before I Make the entry thread, all the Stunads (No Offence)Who don't know what Technic is, you Cant make a bioncle Dinosaur Edited July 16, 200717 yr by Corpreal363
July 17, 200717 yr Before I Make the entry thread, all the Stunads (No Offence)Who don't know what Technic is, you Cant make a bioncle Dinosaur What's a Stunad? And that sentence doesn't make any sense. I do understand every word (except Stunad) but I can't make any larger sense out of those words in the order that they are placed. Bionicle and Technic are not the same thing. Now can we use Technic pieces and not Bionicle pieces? There is a huge difference there. Please clarify. Thanks. :-) and best of luck with your contest.
July 17, 200717 yr What's a Stunad? Maybe he meant this... And that sentence doesn't make any sense. I do understand every word (except Stunad) but I can't make any larger sense out of those words in the order that they are placed. I think he meant, "Before I create an entry thread I'd like to tell those who don't know what Technic is: you cannot make a Bionicle Dinosaur." That's what I can make out amidst all those spelling mistakes...
July 17, 200717 yr Maybe he meant this... Well, that's not very nice. Thanks Hobbes! It's so nice to have you back... *wub* I think he meant, "Before I create an entry thread I'd like to tell those who don't know what Technic is: you cannot make a Bionicle Dinosaur."That's what I can make out amidst all those spelling mistakes... Well, thanks again, but I had gleaned that despite the spelling errors. The sentence still doesn't quite make sense. Corpreal363, Please be as specific as possible with your rules. There is a huge difference between Technic and Bionicle. The questions we have asked are very specific. Can we use Technic pins, beams, axles and gears? Your last statement of not using Bionicle seems to mean more joints and claws and masks. But Bionicle has some cool pieces that can be used for teeth in a brick-built dinosaur. If you're going to limit the elements we can use, please be as specific as possible, maybe provide a list of the pieces you don't want to see. Maybe just say no Bionicle ball joints or masks. And please do your best not to call me stunad for asking. :'-( It hurts my feelings. ;-) Thanks again! :-) I hope your contest is very successful!
July 17, 200717 yr Before I Make the entry thread, all the Stunads (No Offence)Who don't know what Technic is, you Cant make a bioncle Dinosaur Well, assuming Hobbes is right, that is pretty M$g!Bl@cky rude. I understand very well what Technic is since I have been using it before it was even called Technic. You are the one who seems to be confusing Bionicle and Technic, which are two very different things. Bionicle started out being a Technic offshoot, but today, regardless of ancestry, is little to do with it at all, and is no more Technic than Exo-Force is. Especially since most of the sets from the last two years have zero gears. I hope you understand my confusion now. Please be more clear. Do you wish to ban Bionicle dinosaurs and nothing else? Do be aware that many of the bionicle parts (not to mention Technic parts) are now included in Exo-Force and Vikings sets...
July 17, 200717 yr OK guys, lets not start bashing each other, I am fed up with that !! Tks Let me remind you that Contests are suppose to be fun, end of story. If you can't control yourself, I shall close this and end of story. Now, lets ask nicely about rules in a EB atmosphere !! *yoda*
July 17, 200717 yr Author Opps I feel SOOOOO Embarresed! :-$ I didn't know what it ment, so i assumed it wasn't that offending I'm SUPER Sorry to anyone that was offended. It was just an Accident! just like my first problem with the account! I don't want to be banned! :'-( Edited July 17, 200717 yr by Corpreal363

Can we use Technic and not Bionicle pieces or can we use neither of either? Thanks! :-)
July 17, 200717 yr No worries, brother! :-) Could you clarify your rule about Technic. Can we use Technic and not Bionicle pieces or can we use neither of either? Thanks! :-) I've given up. If I enter this I will be using my Dino Attack T-Rex. Seems the less stressful option to me.
July 18, 200717 yr hehe, I'll have to use the only dino I have left (I gave them all away to my sick cousin who is a real fan of Dinos ;-) ) - a horrendous Dino 2010 crap :-D And I'll be sure to enter something for the fun of it ;-) Jurassic Park On !! *yoda*
July 18, 200717 yr Author Thanks For the apoligies :'-) , and Dino Attack Isn't Crap to ME! And you guys said NO bashing. And I just Picked up the book's From the Library. Let the Contest begin!!!! JP On!!!!!
July 18, 200717 yr Can us crazy Americans enter the contest too? Or do we have to be European? :) Oh, and Can we enter something for each category? or only just one? and does it have to be something different for each category we enter? or can they all be the same MOC? And lastly, I've noticed several people are still requesting clarification from you, Corpreal363, about the use of both technic and bionicle LEGO bricks in the contest entries. Could you please specify what you want to see and what you would like avoided? Edited July 18, 200717 yr by Eccohawk
July 18, 200717 yr Can us crazy Americans enter the contest too? Or do we have to be European? :) I have never heard of any contest here being limited to any country. If there is a prize I suppose that would be a good reason, but there isn't one for this contest anyway. Besides, there are a lot of Americans here already. ...and welcome to Eurobricks!
