Does a potential new Eurobricks Technic Contest (you know....the one we have secretly been talking about) conflict with the Porsche contest? In other words; do people have enough time for an EB contest.

Not if it starts the next day,maybe give it two weeks?

But, a little more on topic: i'd like to see a contest that doesn't cover any vehicles (cars, excavators, trucks, wheel-loaders etc.), but machines. I personally find these much more interesting lately, because I've already seen so much of the other stuff. Think about things like PG52's spirograph (amazing!), or Nico71's clocks or mechanical calculators, or that ancient machine that wen viral a couple of years ago, or the airplane folding machine more recently, or all of uefchen's (or something like that :blush: ) creations. Stuff like that, there are still sooooo many possibilities (and on a side note, machines are easier to build, since you often don't have to replicate some real-life curves or shapes :wink: ).

Fully agree with this. Would be nice to have an EB contest where no wheels/tires are allowed!

I would indeed wait until August 1st for a EB contest

I agree. I don't think that contestants will keep building their Porsche entry up until the very last day. Most people would probably have a break between the two contests if the TC10 started on August 1st. Or maybe they wouldn't, I don't know. :wink:

I think it makes sense to wait for one contest to end before starting another. It's only 5 weeks, so it's not that far away.

I hereby confirm that we will wait (more or less) till the other contest is over. Maybe there will be a week overlap or something, but let's wait a bit.

Maybe a pneumatics contest? :drool:

I have two other themes in mind, but I PROMISE to do a Pneumatic contest one day.

I'm on holiday this September too! In the mountains...

I guess the only hope for me to join another contest is to be unemployed...

I don't know if you had already had something planned but may I make a suggestion?

A autonomous where your robot-creation does something using only one motor like a fractal drawing machine, auto delivery system, or a auto stair climber?

I have a feeling these parentheses mean (something)

Too bad. If only one of the judges would like white (sports) cars :wink:

I second that. I hope for some restricitve rules that I normally would not apply to my MOC's... that really makes my creative juices flow
