hahaha thanks, i used to check loads with the Nasa project for the first month, but once i got to 700ish votes (took about 3 weeks to hit that) they stopped and it went to a crawl of mayb 1/2 a day, i actually forgot all about it for a year then i came back and it had hit 8/9k so then i was checking a lot again, but i have noticed another one of my projects the lighthouse hit 600 votes in just under 3 days and now it gets about 5 a day so maybe when i check next year it will have made it haha but having that nasa project hit 10k made me want to post more projects and now i have a back log waiting to upload -

yeah i will start to vote on more in future, i honestly dont spend much time on ideas, i normally just upload and leave them, thats what i did with the Nasa one, i really like your castle when i checked it out and i have supported it, i love that you pulled from classic castle sets for your idea, im doing somthing similar for my classic pirate submission the reason i make them so different is to try and cater to different audiences and hope one will stick, i noticed a lot of people have like 20+ projects all looking pretty similar and all stuck around 200/500 votes, being varied allows your to cross promote to different audiences and allows you to get maximum votes (in theory) - and of course building different themes makes every project fun and intresting Mirco scale is fun but you end up using a huge amount of parts on a tiny thing, like the ships project is like 300/400 parts per ship which is crazy for the size hahah nah im not one for arguing, im happy to support projects, i never really thought about the whole support all castle to send a message type thing but its a smart move, as long as we get castle back im happy -

i have been busy these last few months on many prjects that i will be submitting to lego ideas, such as the Lighthouse and Guard house you may of seen on here, whilst uploading those i noticed that Pirates of the caribbean was once again allowed back to lego ideas, many people have been making ships - which honestly was my plan too but then i thought what was my favourite and most visually stunning scene and for me it was the Maelstrom Duel between The Black Pearl vs The Flying Dutchman so i decided to take a shot and recreating that here in my submission, i think it would make a really good display piece for anyone who is a fan of ships as well as PotC and id like to think it is unique enough to stand out (movie concept art)

no idea if im allowed to post things here @leafan https://ideas.lego.com/projects/e7fae811-4c12-4b95-9b2a-4b9aa5354980

hm im not sure if it is quite as good, its a microscale build however i think its rather unique, i want to make a 1600/1700 era port but i dont know how much support it will get thats true, i think it raced through because it was featured on youtube videos, my nasa space craft set took months to reach 1000 but as soon as it was featured on youtube it jumped up 3k in a few days, Ideas is a strange place, for example my lighthouse project on there at the moment got 300/400 in two days and now it gets about 10 votes a day
-
i have uploaded a pirate (kind of pirates i guess its a PotC build(you can see it in the Moc page for this theme)) project to Ideas which should be active tomorrow, i think the reason pirates isnt on Ideas much is becuase no one votes for them, there has been so many amazing ships, forts etc that dont make it too 100,

thanks for the support
