JJ2 Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Um in my entry I am working on I did not make a bounding box for my A-model and it is now long torn apart, do I have to reassemble it???? Quote
Jim Posted January 25, 2016 Author Posted January 25, 2016 Since I am a stuck up prick I will let you reassemble the A-model! Okay, I won't let you do that Hopefully the majority will have a physical bounding box, but if your model is disassembled, please make sure to clearly state the dimensions and make sure to have picture that's clear enough for us to be able to verify the dimensions. (this sentence is way too long) Quote
JJ2 Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 (edited) Ok thank you Jim!!!! I do have the dimensions of the A-model it is 9472 cubic studs https://farm2.static...35c593ec6_c.jpg EDIT: I just recalculated it and got a different number it is now Length 37 studs, Width 17 studs, and Height 14 studs = 8806 Edited January 25, 2016 by JJ2 Quote

I do have the dimensions of the A-model it is 9472 cubic studs https://farm2.static...35c593ec6_c.jpg In your entry topic, please make sure to state LxWxH = 9472 studs. Since your model comes close to 10.000 we need to verify your calculation Quote

(this sentence is way too long) Thanks for not making the bounding box a requirement Jim. I didn't take a picture of the A model with the bounding box and now it's torn apart. Luckily it's much smaller than the 10k limit. I'll take a picture of the B model, as it's larger and close to the limit. Quote
dhc6twinotter Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 I'm really impressed with the quality of entries so far. Great job everyone! Quote
Serhio Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 (edited) I think that I urgently need to re-assemble the model A and take a photo of it inside the bounding box in perspective. Мy model takes 9990 cubic stud, and it looks very suspicious. On the old photo is difficult to see the width of the frame, but I'm willing to give evidence. Edited January 31, 2016 by Serhio Quote

Serhio Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 Thats great, and nice from you. Done. Replaced the photo in Entry topic. Quote
Serhio Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 I do not quite understand, and I will be happy to get an explanation. The rules have item "One or more images (max 10)." This means "only 10 images for A and B, including the bounding boxes" or "10 images each model - 10 A, 10 B and 2 additional bounding boxes" ? Quote
Milan Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 You can post maximum of 10 pictures for your entry post. This includes both your models, and also bounding boxes. I would suggest you to keep the number of the pictures a bit lower than that. Quote

lcvisser Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 It makes me a bit sad that there's always people that want to bend the rules, however so slightly... Size of the car is 35,5 studs long, 20,5 studs wide and 13,5 studs high, giving a total of 9824,626 cubic studs B model is 45 studs long, 24,5 studs wide and just 9 studs high, giving it a total volume of 9922,5 cubis studs Quote
Jim Posted February 1, 2016 Author Posted February 1, 2016 Measurements in half a stud....we didn't speak about that. If we would have, I would have made contestants round their MOCs to whole studs. Quote
JamesJT Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Got to admit, I don't like the half-stud measurements and the fact that the entry was revealed so late that the rules could not be revised. Quote
lcvisser Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 (edited) Got to admit, I don't like the half-stud measurements and the fact that the entry was revealed so late that the rules could not be revised. Indeed. I hate to say it, but maybe it should be required to a "registration" for contests. Something along the lines of having a WIP topic at least 1 week before the end of the contest. But admittedly, maybe I'm taking this a bit too serious... it's still supposed to be for fun Edit: talking about WIPs: wasn't there someone who started off great with a grader or something...? I can't find it anymore. Edited February 1, 2016 by Ludo Visser Quote
Jim Posted February 1, 2016 Author Posted February 1, 2016 I acknowledge the sentiment, but let's not make it bigger than it is. Both models are within the 10.000 cubic stud limit, so they are both valid. If Zblj had posted his WIP topic last week, the situation would not have been any different. In the first week (or two) we need to establish the rules. And if the rules aren't fully clear, it's my bad. Quote
JamesJT Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 let's not make it bigger than it is No, lets measure in half studs and make it smaller! Quote
Jim Posted February 1, 2016 Author Posted February 1, 2016 No, lets measure in half studs and make it smaller! Bad choice of words Quote

We shouldn't be needing a lawyer to establish rules either Quote
Jim Posted February 1, 2016 Author Posted February 1, 2016 @ Jim: When do get to vote? I have closed the entry topic and I will create the voting topic this afternoon. Quote
Zerobricks Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 (edited) I see, I unintentionally managed to create some controversy. As I said in the TC9 topic, the only way I used 0,5 stud measurements is to ROUND UP the non-whole dimesions. The real dimensions of the A model in cm and studs: width: 16,4 cm 20,5 studs length: 28,3 cm 35,375 studs height: 10,6 cm 13,25 studs And the B model: width:19,6 cm 24,5 studs length: 36 cm 45 studs height: 7 cm 8,75 studs If you think my model is bending the rules or unfair in any way than I will rmove myself from the competition.
