ZCerberus Posted June 9, 2017 Posted June 9, 2017 Hey Guildies! Despite rumors to the contrary, I am still around. Here's the scoop- I have two young kids (4 and 1.5) and I committed to Brickworld this year. As such my daily life consists of getting the kids up and off to day care, off to the day job, back to feed the kids and play with them, put kids to bed, then work on Brickworld projects until 2:00 A.M. Lather, rinse, repeat- plus do all the other family commitments like a wedding and birthday party this weekend. Good news is Brickworld is next week! No only will I be able to connect with Rogue Angel there and a little bit of the EB brass to discuss the project and where we are. After BW, I will have time to get through the remaining scoring and judging from the comfort of my own couch... or office chair. You guys deserve the attention here in GoH and you will get it if you remain patient for just a bit longer. After that, we can have some serious talks about the direction for Book III and how we can get things back up and active, perhaps with some new leadership or ideas! Here is what I know I am behind on- Nocturnus Pie Challenge results and prizes. Book II scoring for all three categories and prizes. I may need some help with this, so I am going to check to see if I can collect all the links to the entries in one place. I think some of that is already centralized to some degree, but I need to finish that up. I may need some help from you guys after I have assembled the list to ensure everything is available. Expect results by July 1. Quote
Exetrius Posted June 9, 2017 Posted June 9, 2017 I'm glad to hear from you, I'm looking forward to the results and other developments. For now, good luck with the daily challenges you are facing! Quote
TitusV Posted June 10, 2017 Posted June 10, 2017 Great to hear you're still alive, and kicking! I can wait a little longer for the challenge results. In every case would I like to thank you for committing so much to the Guilds, while you still have such a busy real life. Thank you! Quote
Gideon Posted June 10, 2017 Posted June 10, 2017 I'm in a very similar situation with both work and responsibility for the logistics around the kids (4 and 2,5 years old in our case), so I definitely recognize the situation... The only way out I'd say is delegate so you can conserve more of those precious few Lego hours to producing world-class MOCs Quote
Umbra-Manis Posted June 10, 2017 Posted June 10, 2017 Thanks for the update Z! Family definitely comes first! Quote
soccerkid6 Posted June 11, 2017 Posted June 11, 2017 Thanks for a heads-up, Z. Have a great time at BW Quote
Henjin_Quilones Posted June 11, 2017 Posted June 11, 2017 Do what you have to do, Z! If you need help, ask us, and I know I speak for many in the Guilds in saying that we would be happy to help in any way we can, to the degree that we can. Quote
narbilu Posted June 12, 2017 Posted June 12, 2017 As you see, we all respect and understand your situation. If you need any assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me (I have some spare time) Regards, Narb Quote
Henjin_Quilones Posted June 12, 2017 Posted June 12, 2017 (edited) Hi Z, Would this help? I compiled a list of all of the Challenge V entries that I could find in the challenge thread, and even found a few that had never been posted there. Hopefully I did not miss any (if I did, let me know and I can add it). If I have another free period, I might try to do the same for the Pie Contest as well.

Henjin_Quilones Posted June 13, 2017 Posted June 13, 2017 There were not as many Pie entries as I expected, so this did not take that long to put together. It is possible that I missed an entry or two, but I took all of the ones from the Minichallenge III thread as well as searched through the guild topic history back to August, and found only these. Again, I hope this helps, Z!

The Maestro Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 Best of luck with juggling everything Z, and there is no real rush Nice Henjin, you're the man Quote
TitusV Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 @Henjin_Quilones: either you're crazy with too much free time, or too good for this world. In both cases: this is great! Quote

dathil Posted June 14, 2017 Posted June 14, 2017 Good luck Z, I bet we all know the struggle and everyone would agree with the choice you made! Quote
Grover Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Thanks for doing all you do, Z. I am happy to be patient. I have an insane work schedule and am raising a litter of puppies right now, so I feel your pain. Good luck at BrickWorld, and we will be here when you get back, don't worry! Quote
Legofin2012 Posted June 30, 2017 Posted June 30, 2017 Hope everything has calmed down now Brickworld is over and you had a great time! Looking forward to seeing the results of all the challenges too! Quote
ZCerberus Posted July 4, 2017 Author Posted July 4, 2017 Thank you all. Special props to HQ for tracking those down and to Rogue for getting story voting up. I was out of town over last weekend, but as you can see we got started on getting caught up! Delegation of GoH duties and fresh ideas are on our minds. Quote

MassEditor Posted July 7, 2017 Posted July 7, 2017 Kids make such great excuses. I may need to get me a few. Good work on getting this together Z, RA, et al! Quote

Good work on getting this together Z, RA, et al! A few is the issue- one is not so bad if you are married and have support- 2 young ones on the other hand- when there are as many kids as parents then life gets busy until they are old enough to be in the LEGO space with you without ruing the sort or project!
