    Based on this, I fear I may have serious brain issues

    How many bricks do you have?

    Boulderer replied to Mikisajlo's topic in General LEGO Discussion

    Currently showing at around 61.5k parts in Technic alone. As far as the System pieces go, I'd estimate 4 to 5 times as much again. I tend to keep sets discrete so, I guess I'm leaning more towards the collector than the free spirit of a master builder

    I was thinking along the lines that the results only show when you have completed the poll, and you are unable to change your votes, once cast. I guess the difficulty would lie in discussion on the results, that may be open to abuse. Though this will always be a potential issue with any open voting system.

    My Minifigure came sealed in a bag?!

    Boulderer replied to PikaManiac's topic in General LEGO Discussion

    Most likely just a conscientious seller.

    The poll idea sounds like a good solution. I like the idea of live results, for those that have already voted.

    Hi Cumulonimbus, Do you have a copy of the LDD file that you'd be willing to share? I'd really like to take a look at building your model. Doubt I have the correct colour pieces but, you never know

    LEGO related injuries?

    Boulderer replied to Boulderer's topic in Community

    Stood on an old set of wheels yesterday ... pain initially, followed by the involuntary roll and fall. Not so much physical injury as injured pride. All it was missing was the comedy Flintstones sound effects

    Having seen the voting to date, I'd have to agree that the flexible allocation of votes may not be the best solution. As others have said, a structured scoring system may work better. Lets face it though, a lot of these scoring methods are frequently up for debate amongst the elite sports, so there is always going to be an element of subjectivity to any decision As to the people who can't decide ... this isn't exactly "Sophie's Choice" ... grow a pair!

    Making use of my "golden ticket" from Jim : 3: 2 16: 1 22: 3 29: 6 35: 8

    Many thanks Jim

    Bit of a shame I don't qualify to cast votes. I hope everyone doesn't struggle too much with deciding where to place their 20 points

    Other hobbies beside Lego?

    Boulderer replied to Fabulandlover's topic in Community

    The main hobbies in my life are rock climbing, cycling (road and mtb), reading, music and of course Lego. I also get captivated by the odd DVD box set, once in a while.

    Do Bricklink have a category for competition votes?

    LEGO related injuries?

    Boulderer replied to Boulderer's topic in Community

    I think this could be the worst so far. I definitely got a chill when I read it

    Great modelling to get the shapes. They look amazing. Rather a lot of STAMPing going on though. The Redbull truck has almost lost it's Lego character because of the stickers. Shame.

    I'm not convinced that the comparison image above is actually a MkVII. Can anyone confirm?

    Aging and discolouring pieces?

    Boulderer replied to klinton's topic in General LEGO Discussion

    Thanks for clarifying that Faefrost. I've never used tea for colouring plastics before but, thought it was worth suggesting.

    What did you buy today?

    Boulderer replied to Kikuichimonji's topic in Community

    Today's purchase ... Model Team 5541 Blue Fury, New In Sealed Box ... Nice

    LEGO related injuries?

    Boulderer replied to Boulderer's topic in Community

    Ah! The days of using Lego as a projectile. I recall a number of rubber band guns made from Lego ... the creak of stressed Lego as the power was upped with just one too many rubber bands. Then the search for all the pieces after the inevitable implosion

    I really like the dual function of the "first button", very clever.
  21. Boulderer
    I thought I recognized the design, when I saw the picture. I built one of these last year from a YouTube video (which I now assume must have been one of yours), that I came across by accident. I loved the build so much, I only broke the model down (reluctantly) a month or so ago. Great work

    [MINI] Retro Car

    Boulderer replied to super-jaschka's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling

    Coincidence!! I was trying to find the number for this part a couple of hours ago, without any luck. I was going to post on the part identification thread later this evening
  23. Boulderer
    I've already made a mental note to use similar constraints on myself in future, to help hone my building skills. I can only aspire to the levels of creativity exhibited by the entrants of this contest.
  24. Boulderer
    What would be really great would be to see all the entries built, side by side. Perhaps not a practical expectation but, it's a nice thought.

    The doors are a big improvement
