yup, got it!!! Thanks!! Yei. it seems it works so far...and I hope it ´ll continue like this a bit more Thank you for the glossary by the way I have to say that I am so amazed by the Lego world and specially by the Lego users of this community...

You don´t have to overthink that som much or be so specific (however I appreciate that you try to do your best)... I what I want to know what a technique for you is... not for anybody else but for you, which elements do you combine?, is it a process? is it a combination of elements? if yes which elements?? is a building technique something so precise or is it just an advice of how to do it? All this methods for different types of MOCs are in general building techniques for MOCs... Try to explain how you will explain to your grandma ... You can be so specific as you want but you don´t have to be... you are the expert so try to explain it to a totall inexpert (like me) Got them!! Thanks!!! got them 2...or 3 ?? Thanks a lot ! =)

Sure!! Here are the questions: Questionnaire Lego Community Three objectives have to be found out in this thesis partially through interviews in a chosen Lego online community. First, the meaning of techniques, namely building techniques for Lego users, second the importance of these techniques for Lego users and their MOCs and finally how innovation takes place when lead users innovate building techniques in a Lego community. That is to say the role of user innovation by innovating techniques within an online community, more precisely in a Lego online community. Techniques Innovation 1.

(I delated the attachment because of the space, now you find it in my new post "Who want to win some Legos?" I´m looking forward to getting you replays... Have a great day!

Hey Holodoc, you can call me Diana Thank you very much... actually I´m thinking about a little raffle among the people answering my questionnaire, maybe a little set or mini fig would be an extra motivation. You can find the questionnaire in previous replays, tell me if you can´t download it and I send it to you again. Da ich meine Masterarbeit auf Englisch schreibe, wäre es viel besser wenn du es auf Englisch schreibst. You can send it to dels48@yahoo.com.mx Vielen Dank nochmal!! Schöne Grüße, Diana

SURE!!!!! good idea... I´m gonna try to find something cool ; nevertheless tell me if you have an idea which kind of set or minifig will be suitable for such an ocassion. Maybe it will be better if I post my request again with a little picture of the price, what do you think?

hahaha... what do you think it will be a good raffle to answer 10 questions?

Hallo Siegfried, Sorry! I dindn´t mean to do something against the policies. I´m new here and I´m not so sure how to proceed. Maybe you could help me by telling me if I could post my request in another forum or just here, or if I could ask directly to other members. I think everybody here are experts and it would help me a lot some of their comments. For instance I would really appreciate if you could answer my questionnaire, It won´t take long and it is actually to discover a little bit more about Lego fans and their amazing job as innovators. Thank you for your guidance! Diana P.s. I´m also not so sure about the Avatar, could it be whatever I want?, I don´t want to violate the rules.
