GoH official challenges and my commitments!!

Recommended Posts

Hey Guildies!

Despite rumors to the contrary, I am still around.

Here's the scoop- I have two young kids (4 and 1.5) and I committed to Brickworld this year.

As such my daily life consists of getting the kids up and off to day care, off to the day job, back to feed the kids and play with them, put kids to bed, then work on Brickworld projects until 2:00 A.M.  Lather, rinse, repeat- plus do all the other family commitments like a wedding and birthday party this weekend.

Good news is Brickworld is next week!  No only will I be able to connect with Rogue Angel there and a little bit of the EB brass to discuss the project and where we are.  After BW, I will have time to get through the remaining scoring and judging from the comfort of my own couch... or office chair.

You guys deserve the attention here in GoH and you will get it if you remain patient for just a bit longer.

After that, we can have some serious talks about the direction for Book III and how we can get things back up and active, perhaps with some new leadership or ideas!

Here is what I know I am behind on-

Nocturnus Pie Challenge results and prizes.

Book II scoring for all three categories and prizes.

I may need some help with this, so I am going to check to see if I can collect all the links to the entries in one place.  I think some of that is already centralized to some degree, but I need to finish that up.  I may need some help from you guys after I have assembled the list to ensure everything is available.

Expect results by July 1.

Great to hear you're still alive, and kicking! I can wait a little longer for the challenge results.

In every case would I like to thank you for committing so much to the Guilds, while you still have such a busy real life. Thank you!

I'm in a very similar situation with both work and responsibility for the logistics around the kids (4 and 2,5 years old in our case), so I definitely recognize the situation...

The only way out I'd say is delegate so you can conserve more of those precious few Lego hours to producing world-class MOCs :wink:

Do what you have to do, Z! If you need help, ask us, and I know I speak for many in the Guilds in saying that we would be happy to help in any way we can, to the degree that we can.

There were not as many Pie entries as I expected, so this did not take that long to put together. It is possible that I missed an entry or two, but I took all of the ones from the Minichallenge III thread as well as searched through the guild topic history back to August, and found only these. Again, I hope this helps, Z!

Nice Henjin, you're the man :tongue:

@Henjin_Quilones: either you're crazy with too much free time, or too good for this world. In both cases: this is great! :thumbup:

It was either this or grade exams at work, and I didn't want to grade...

Thanks for doing all you do, Z.  I am happy to be patient.  I have an insane work schedule and am raising a litter of puppies right now, so I feel your pain.  Good luck at BrickWorld, and we will be here when you get back, don't worry!

Thank you all.  Special props to HQ for tracking those down and to Rogue for getting story voting up.

I was out of town over last weekend, but as you can see we got started on getting caught up!

Delegation of GoH duties and fresh ideas are on our minds.

Kids make such great excuses. I may need to get me a few.

Good work on getting this together Z, RA, et al!

A few is the issue- one is not so bad if you are married and have support- 2 young ones on the other hand- when there are as many kids as parents then life gets busy until they are old enough to be in the LEGO space with you without ruing the sort or project!
