I really only see two entries that transform That was the catch for me, but according the rules there are many ways to interpret them, quoting the first page: "Create a vehicle that transforms into something else like another type of vehicle, robot, object" :-) Quote
Jim Posted February 2, 2022 Author Posted February 2, 2022 Some entries aren't exactly what I had in mind for this contest, but given the complexity of the contest and multiple ways of interpreting the transformation rule I have no objections with either of the entries. I am happy people took the time to build cool MOCs even though this was a hard contest. Quote
MangaNOID Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 Sorry I’ll eat my words and say 3 proper transformations in my interpretation anyway well done everyone, I didn’t even try cause I put it in the too hard basket Quote
Thirdwigg Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 Thanks for another great contest! I feel that as defending TC Champion, I should have participated, but I couldn't make this one work. Thanks @Jim and @Milan for hosting another one and for keeping these contests fresh and continuous. And thanks to all the designers who were will and able to make an entry. On to voting! Quote
weavil Posted February 2, 2022 Posted February 2, 2022 I came, I tried, and I probably failed. But I had lots of fun doing this contest because of how challenging it was. Best of luck to the few that joined me in this great up hill battle! Quote

I feel exactly the same It has been a great way to try out crazy mechanisms in a small space. I definetly gained a project i will be working on in the future And i learned to work on my timing for those contests Quote

Erik Leppen Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 I probably missed it, but when does voting close? I'm just seeing it now and want to take the time checking the entries. Skimming through the entry topic, I see that some seriously cool stuff has been built this time around. I take my hat off to all people who succeeded entering anything. Quote

As they can't vote for their own entries, it's like a disadvantage to vote (for others) or am I wrong? Quote

Participants are not required to vote. Yeah, this was on my mind a lot last week--whether or not I would vote. In the end I did, because it felt sportsmanlike and I didn't think it would hurt my position, but I at least think that in future contests we should either ban participants from voting, or force then to vote, just to avoid the whole dilemma.

This is not necessary I think because this contest is unique in the small number of participants and I think it is fun to vote also with this dilemma as participant. Everyone should make his/hers own choice. You also get strategic voting if we force participants to vote. Quote

I'm not in it to win it and it's nice to praise others for the work they put in. Quote
