Chris Phipson Posted January 24, 2010 Hello everyone! I'm new to Eurobricks but have been around the Lego community for a couple of years now. My main site that I use is MOCpages where I am a site moderator. I also ran a few group projects over there. I started the MOCie awards (an awards show for the "best of" on MOCpages) and I started, organized and ran the "MocOlympics" (an elimination style tournament that had about 120 players last year (The winner of which was Dave Sterling). Both of these "contests" have been going for two years and I'm looking forward to a third and beyond. Here's my homepage on MOCpages http://mocpages.com/home.php/10716. I'm also a member of Builder's Lounge. I've also got a brickset page, but only used it to inventory my collection. Not too much else here. I know a couple of you guys out there in Eurobricks land, but for the most part, I'm a newbie here. I've been to BrickWorld Chicago twice (only displayed this past year) and can't wait for BW2010! When I first started out in this wonderful hobby, I fancied myself a Sci-Fi builder. However, over the past 2 years, I've found myself drifting towards town builds more and more. I guess I don't like to catagorize myself too much. I build when inspiration rears it's ugly head and whacks me with the "buildNOWhammer." I'm looking forward to contributing to the community here. See you all around! ~Chris. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I Scream Clone Posted January 25, 2010 Welcome aboard Chris. I found your post in the Age group topic very informative indeed. You have a tough job moding MOCpages that's for sure. I hope to meet up in person when I head over for BW2010. Just about to peruse your Tanneth Incident series. Cheers and thanks for commenting on some of my creations before, best avatar ever! Go AAA!

Erdbeereis Posted January 26, 2010 A hearty welcome to Eurobricks Chris. I greatly look forward to seeing some new MOCs posted here, and have a fantastic time. Just watch your back, some of us can get a little crazy sometimes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MetroiD Posted January 26, 2010 (edited) Once again - welcome to Eurobricks, Chris!!! Great to have you around, your presence will surely make this place even MORE fun :) On a different note, as a regular visitor of MOCpages back about a year ago, I'm well aware of your MOCcing prowess. I would however like you to know that it was your awsum Halo page & suicidal Clone Wars comic stories that made me abandon MOCpages. Altogether. And I'm currently considering quitting all MOCcing as well. Can't stand the fear of waking up one day and feeling the urge to do a Halo wrthoggg, zomg!11 Just watch your back, some of us can get a little crazy sometimes. default_look.gif ...says Counting Count Eis-coolah!

Dragonator Posted January 26, 2010 Welcome! Don't hurt the small woodland animals! We don't really care what you do to the children... You don't know how true that is... Welcome to EB Chris, I'm sure you will find our forums to your liking. I look forward to seeing you around the place, and seeing what creations you might have to share with us. Just watch your back, some of us can get a little crazy sometimes. Crazy? I wouldn't know anything about that sorry. Ask the Walrus, perhaps, I hear he is of his rockers. Now, to find this fabled Halo MOC... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pedro Posted January 26, 2010 Welcome aboard Chris, nice to meet you! I've already checked out your Star Wars comic - very cool - but I've got to say your magnum opus has to be your Halo creations: your Warthog is simply breath-taking! Looking forward to seeing what else you bring to Eurobricks, but will go and check out your MOCpages... women, children, small woodland animals and - just in case - harmless inanimate objects all well hidden...
