Brent De Bondt Posted July 20, 2018 Posted July 20, 2018 I am a new member of the Eurobricks forum since today. I just saw this competition and I was wondering wheter I can insert my creation for the contest. Is this ok or do you need to be a member for the entire duration of the contest? Quote

To enter the contest you need two things. First you need to create your own topic, with a title starting with [TC14], so for example "[TC14] My Soopadoopa Ride". In this topic you will post your progress. When you are done, you need to make an entry (single post) in the entry topic. The entry topic will be opened later. I am not sure what you mean by "be a member for the entire duration of the contest". You are already a member, so you will stay a member...for life :D Looking forward to seeing your progress/entry. Be aware; it has to be a new creation. Not a creation you already posted somewhere on the interwebs or have shown at events. Quote

I'll create a topic when the first parts start coming together. Thanks Quote
Jim Posted July 20, 2018 Author Posted July 20, 2018 Ahhh I see. No that's not necessary, you are more than welcome to join!! Quote

Now? When the contest closes? I ask because we have an event the last weekend in August and, assuming I finish a new ride, I'd like to add it to my amusement park for the show. Quote

There is no way for us to verify that you started this ride for this contest. Did you create a topic for the ride? Can you post it here? Quote

Did you create a topic for the ride? Can you post it here? I haven't created a topic yet. I had started on a Zipper ride but I see there are already two of those so I'm thinking about going back to the drawing board and starting something new. If I post progress pics in a topic would that be sufficient? Here's a video of all my amusement park from the last show I went to so you will know that this isn't something I already had: Quote
Jim Posted July 20, 2018 Author Posted July 20, 2018 Cool, thanks. I will trust you on this one! If you can make a topic for your contest ride, that would be a great way to convince the other contestants you are working on something new Quote

But I need to give credit where credit is due, because @dhc6twinotter came up with the idea of the fairground theme This Well, I think it was kind of a collaborated idea, and I really like what I'm seeing so far! There is some neat stuff! Quote
Jim Posted August 11, 2018 Author Posted August 11, 2018 How are things progressing guys? Just so you know, I have secured some cool prizes for this contest. Think 2018 2H Quote

mocbuild101 Posted August 12, 2018 Posted August 12, 2018 I should be finished building in a week or so, I just need to decide how to decorate it... I'll be updating my WIP topic later today... Quote
Seasider Posted August 12, 2018 Posted August 12, 2018 Hi @Jim, the ride is coming along well. I now think I’ve got Europe’s supply of grey panels to complete the base for the track and the cars are almost done. So hopefully this week they should all come together and then it’s jusy powering it and hoping it actually works! ... oh and then a little finishing with a fence and stuff. Not sure how I’m going to photograph / film it at the moment as it’s a bit big! Quote

Frequenzberater Posted August 12, 2018 Posted August 12, 2018 This is BTW my entry for the TC14 contest: What do you think? Quote

I like it, but we cannot allow this in the contest. We have clearly stated that the entry should consist of mainly Technic parts with some System embellishments. I’m sorry. I will open the entry topic shortly btw. Quote

Think 2018 2H I lost interest in my build, we will see if I decide to totally rebuild something new and a little bit more interesting to me. Quote
Aventador2004 Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 All TC14 topics: (15) + Withdrawn ones: *I did not put mine on top because its mine, but because It was one of the first in order of posted, but the order got mixed. Quote
Rudivdk Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 (edited) @Aventador2004You forgot 1... Dunno if I can finish it in time, but I haven't withdrawn yet Edited August 22, 2018 by Rudivdk Quote
Erik Leppen Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 I\m actually trying to finish mine by next Sunday (August 26), because my home LUG is holding a meeting that day and I want to showcase the MOC there. (For those interested and near the Netherlands, see https://www.facebook.com/lowlug ) As an advantage, finishing early gives me some time to shoot a video (the part I dislike the most). Quote
