Hinckley Posted December 5, 2011 does it have to be open backed or can it be closed? does the base plate need to be the same 10 stud wide? or can it be wider? longer? I know they need to be around the same size but whats the limit? There really isn't a limit unless it becomes exponentially bigger than the current sets. Listen, just build something. Don't overthink it. The rule is purposely vague so you can still have freedom but will disqualify anyone who builds a 3000 piece modular building with a 4000 piece carousel on the side.

RubeusHagrid Posted December 5, 2011 Since I'm only aloud one entry, can I? Post all of my Winter buildings (I'm planning several) and choose 1 to enter Post each building on the forum, then choose one to enter Or do I have to wait until they are all built, and 1 is entered?

Hinckley Posted December 9, 2011 When can we expect news on the prizes? Gee, I don't know. Last year, I didn't announce the prizes until the winners were announced. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JackJonespaw Posted December 9, 2011 Should it have 8/8.5 minifigs? With the toy shop, we got 7, then 7.5, then 8...just wondering... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hinckley Posted December 13, 2011 Should it have 8/8.5 minifigs? With the toy shop, we got 7, then 7.5, then 8...just wondering... Every entry should have 8.5 minifigs, no more, no less. <--That is sarcasm!!! I'm not answering any more questions like this one. I feel it's more than clear what's expected from the rules, clarifying questions and the answers I've already given. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
