yep, it's what I'll do, and a flight ticket to Australia is a little expensive ( from Switzerland ) ^^

and don't worry, it was just a joke ^^ ( I think you knew it anyway )

Great prizes Mister Phes!  What are the conditions of these sets?  Are they MISB?  I know I would never win, but it would be nice if the winner from each category could choose the prize they want.  For example, in the Midsize category I value the Third place prize over the other two.  But there is no way to build a MOC with the intent to win third place?  Or is there?  :pir-sceptic:

Oh well, so when will we see the rules?

Well I'm utterly teased by the prizes! I'm in huge need of enlarging my pirates collection. So there are actually 12 prizes for 12 contestants who might win? What exactly does "creative critic" mean? something like most original MOC?
