Peppermint_M Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 Ninja Bomb It happens to us all, working hard on a masterwork. The magnum opus of our building, an excess of time and parts spent. Then a contest comes along and we’re all built out! Never fear! You can join in the fun too! Ninjas are masters of concealment, sneaking in and hiding carefully. Hide a ninja (or even ninjas) in your build somewhere and challenge us to find it! Rules Hide a ninja or ninjas within a completed MOC. Take a close-up image of the hiding ninja as a clue to its location. Be reasonable, we do need to find it to judge. Post the close-up image and a link to the MOC in this thread. Now for the super important entry rules: New and complete MOCs only! No WIPs or previously posted MOCs There is no limit to which theme, what kind of MOC or size of MOC you post.

Oky Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 Interesting... Can we hide our ninja(s) in a MOC that we build for another contest/community build? Also, can the ninja be edited into the picture or does it actually have to be in the MOC? Quote
Peppermint_M Posted October 2, 2012 Author Posted October 2, 2012 It has to physically be in the MOC, it has to be a new MOC but this MOC can be from any other theme, contest or whatever. This contest was designed to let everyone have some fun and join in. Quote
CM4Sci Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 Wow, this is really creative! I like the idea. -Sci Quote
Si-MOCs Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 Not that I can enter... But hypothetically could you use a previously posted moc that has been already posted - if said ninja was already hiding in that previously posted picture? As in what if I already hid a ninja? :is difficult: And I'm not suggesting there are hidden ninji in FriendSHIP One ... Just hypothetically discussing... Quote
Darkdragon Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 And I'm not suggesting there are hidden ninji in FriendSHIP One ... Just hypothetically discussing... Doesn't FriendSHIP One have enough views? Quote
Peppermint_M Posted October 2, 2012 Author Posted October 2, 2012 You can join in for fun! All staff are welcome to post something here and I'll keep it out of judging when we finish. Go nuts guys! Quote
Si-MOCs Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 Doesn't FriendSHIP One have enough views? No... It doesn't...VOTE SCI-FI! Though there really is a ninja Quote
Kai NRG Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 My apologies if I missed something, but are there no size limits (or requirements)? Also, are you allowed as many pictures in the MOC topic as you want (minimum 2)? This sounds fun! Quote
Darkdragon Posted October 2, 2012 Posted October 2, 2012 No... It doesn't...VOTE SCI-FI! Voting has concluded. Quote
Zachattacx Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Can my ninja be hidden in Hero Factory/Bionicle Mocs? Quote
Etzel Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 Can my ninja be hidden in Hero Factory/Bionicle Mocs? Aren't the rules clear enough on this? There is no limit to which theme, what kind of MOC or size of MOC you post. Everyone can join the fun of Ninja Month. Quote

Oky Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 One question: Will we be judged on the MOC that we hide our ninja in or on how well the ninja is hidden? You can find my Ninja Bomb entry here. I can't exactly give you all a hint, because it would then become waaay to obvious I think you have to give a hint. It's one of the few rules of this contest. I was about to give up looking for Lloyd when I finally spotted him. Nice job. http://www.eurobrick...?showtopic=7491 Where's Cole? I think you linked to the wrong thread. Quote
Kai NRG Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 One question: Will we be judged on the MOC that we hide our ninja in or on how well the ninja is hidden? . . . Since it seems like it will be voting, it probably will depend on the voter's preference. PenKid, you could do a close up and hide it under a tag. Quote
Peppermint_M Posted October 16, 2012 Author Posted October 16, 2012 I was hoping to, shall we say, encourage voting on how clever/funny the ninja hiding place is. I mean look at the contest banner. You can see the ninja with ease but there is something pretty comedic about a ninja popping out of a flower bed right? Then again, if you have to go all "Where's Wally" on a MOC, that is pretty awesome too, real ninja hiding technique! Of course if someone doesn't like the MOC then they'll likely not vote for it. But to clarify: These entries should be judged on: Ninja Hiding Awesomeness LEGO style irreverance and Comedy (like in the LEGO video games) it's an and or situation really, hence the tags as the main prize. Remember: This is just a bit of fun Quote
Garmadon Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 I have a question. My entry is a MOC boat that I built and I would like to post it as a separate topic. Should I post it in the pirate or Ninjago forum, or does it even matter? Quote
Peppermint_M Posted October 23, 2012 Author Posted October 23, 2012 It belong's in the theme forum that matches the theme of the MOC. Like I said, the ninja is sneaking in and hiding somewhere unexpected Quote
Kai NRG Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 I'm thinking about hiding a ninja in my Guilds of historica Challenge V MOC, I'm wondering if I can post a WIP photo of the creation, since the rules say: New and complete MOCs only! No WIPs or previously posted MOCs [/Quote] Quote
