Haha
Oh, and nice title!
But where´s Holodoc´s "Rat Spitter" title?
Ras/KimT/any other MOD/Admin who were at the event, I think you have a job to do...

[DJ Force]

Dennimator, stop posting and build that damn village!

[Zorro]

Group Picture at Friday, before the entrance of the Eurohotel


Same picture, but with one big difference. Who can spot it? HINT: Copmike/Ras


Copmike reading his questions during a LEGO knowledge quiz


Drinking beer and having fun!


Copmike preparing his quiz


An other side of the table and one of the few pictures where we can see Zorro (on the right side of KimT), since he was the photographer!



Still on the meeting table


We went inside when it got dark, to complete our games-schedule.


Also the minifigs were talking to each other.


Zorro during the "build a tower in 1 minute" competition, stupidly building his on the table.


Doing it the right way...


The beautifull waitress. Only the ones attending the event shall remember her face!





Heavy competition!


The Finale, between Jipay and CGH!



Jipay's winning tower!


Building sets between the games in. Our favourite hobby!



The Jedi Mind Game (guessing which color the brick is, when being only able to feel the brick behind your back)


A game where you have to spit a gummy as far as possible!


KimT's "entry". Holodoc won the game!


At the entrance of the LEGOLAND park. The other members are waiting their turn to pay near the desk houses, while CGH the Dutchman searches for a free way in.


And O YEAH, the people from Holland are very inventive!


A beautifull Fox, in one of the many little parks.


One of the REAL LEGO builders, in his working place behind the park, telling us information about how he became a builder, building itself, the park, sets,...


And showing us his biggest secrets!


The Color pattern. This is the way the builders use it.


Also behind the scenes: a beautifull ship.


And a big scary Troll!


The Castle, including a shop where all Castle sets were sold, including some old ones!


Some of us, including me, visited Miniland afterwards, take a look at this beautifull farmhouse.


An automated coach, and some knights outside the castle walls.



A huge castle, with figures dancing inside (mechanical).


A helicopter, with real rotation.


The miniland airport, with many mechanical moving objects.


Bonaparte and Captain Green Hair, posing before a village.


Inside the park, near the Mindstorms Center


After miniland we visited the big tent where we could fill up our boxes for 7 Euro per box. We were very inventive about how to maximize the brick input!


The Pick A Brick store.


Preparing for the bowling game.



The bowling itself.


Der "Gastfraue" going around to serve us our drinks


This is Ras doing his Jedi dance after his so maniest Strike !


A group of totally drunken strangers asking me to take their picture.


CGH throwing his bowling ball.


A line-up of the cars that will enter CGH's competition. Copmike is doing a last chek-up no one has used forbidden parts or techniques!



Preparing the cars for the first CGH-competition where the cars have to jump as far as possible over a ramp. Sadly the ramp picture was too dark...


BANG! The second competition was all around not loosing any bricks when their cars hit the wall!


The Miss Car Election. Holodoc won!


We of course continued talking to each other during the games.


Holodoc also won the General Competion (who had the highest score after counting all the points of all the games) Congratulations!


Captain Green Hair won the second prize! Also congratz!


After the prizes were divided we did rise the flag!


And a final group picture, ending the day for some, others went on drinking beer and coke in the dark...

Thank's for the many pictures. I would so much have loved to join you all in Germany this year, but hopefully I will have better time next year, and give it a big go.

Yeah, hope you will be able to come next year. It was so much fun!

[DJ Force]

I´m not Kim, but the garbage monster is a Dianoga.

And CopMike handed out the instructions to the promo farmtruck when we were bowling, if I recall right.

Thanks.

Oh? I didn´t get any...

EDIT: Ok, who gave me my new title?  
"Shopping is a sport"? I didn´t shop...that...much...   Ok, I maybe did shop a little too much, but I don´t get to a LEGO shop very often!

They were selfprinted, so you might want to ask him if he could just send you the pdf.

Oh, and there is stuff missing in your list. The city foldout poster, the Maersk DSS and I think 1 tan small legs. And weren´t the 1x1 light blue bricks supposed to be Maersk blue? I thought I heard something about that....

BTW, my truck was missing a superrare 1x1 bley round plate. Did it just fell out the bag, did you miss it or did you forget it in all bags? Just curious.

Oh yeah. Thanks. But I don´t think the tan legs were included in the extras. They were at the PaB, though. Also, I don´t have any Maersk blue nor light blue, so I don´t know.
Your truck? What truck?

And I totally envy you. Once someone told me about the 20% discount with a Merlin card I was constantly hoping to find someone with this card. I even bumped into you when you were leaving, misunderstood you for leaving the event now and didn´t want to bother you with that matter, as it would have taken some time to chose the bricks...
Evening came and nobody with a Merlin card to be found, I finally was at the Fabrik PaB at 18:30 - when the shop normally would have closed at 18:00!
I just had the chance to rush in, grab a bag and put as many parts in there as possible without really chosing or counting. But boy was I surprised to find that a big bag of bricks really wasnßt that expensive after all. Best PaB ever!
I would have loved to stay in the PaB for at least half an hour longer. So much stuff I missed...

Oh. I had a Merlin card, but I already had used the coupon, although the 10% constant bonus was still ongoing. Sorry.

That´s no truck, that´s a tractor!

[DJ Force]

truck, tractor, all the same...

Wow. That is all really amazing. I have to make this a priority for next year. *Starts saving money*

Good thing so many others have posted pictures, I wasn't able to find the charger for my camera before leaving, so I couldn't take any pictures
