Mister Phes

You're most welcome! Thank you for participating and contributing such superb builds!

Surprising a seasoned sailor such as yourself hasn't seen an 80s classic! What if it's a complete ship but doesn't have fabric sails?

Yes, both Challenges and Entries close on August 17... which may or may not be August 18 depending on your timezone. And it cost you the opportunity to WIN LEGO sets!

It means the first two Creative Critics to post 25 Replies from August 3 onward can claim a 25€ prize. But we're well past the first two critics to write 25 replies. All the Critic challenge prizes were last week; Horation (€100) , Math Wizard (€50), BardDandelion (€25) and YellowFrog (€25). Nonetheless, you're still in the running to win the €215 at the end of the contest.

So who's going to watch The Goonies in the near future?

I know. So that's why I was reminding you.

Good work reporting on this - we probably have sufficient interest to make the LEGO Ideas Inferno its own a topic. But one thing I've noticed... In the Goonies film, The Inferno technically isn't a shipwreck because during the final scene it sets sail...

Governor Steve! Brilliant! Never did I suspect Steve was a once a governor himself... Fort de Soleil has been incorporated into the Entries Index.

Steve is a man of many vocations! Lighthouse Keeper Steve has been incorporated into the Entries Index.

Another castaway Steve - but certainly not marooned alone as this one appears to have experienced a bit of excitement! Escape from Cave Island has been incorporated into the Entries Index.

I've been wondering when the Imperial Armada would enter Steve's story - and now it's finally happened! Caught by the Armada Coast Guard along with Modern Pirate Steve has been incorporated into the Entries Index.

FINAL WEEK TO ENTER! Entries Close August 17! When timer reaches zero no further Entries will be accepted.

That is correct! The prizes provided by LEGO cannot be combined with the self funded prizes. I notice that is the product page is for Ireland - is that the page you'd use if you were buying the set yourself?

You've been doing a fantastic job! We'll conduct a more thorough count when someone decides to claim a prize

Please show us some LEGO Pirate scenes you've made in this generator? (Please note failure to do so may result in your post being deleted)

That's the Classic Pirates budget... and due the market crash this week the exchange rate is certainly not working in our favour.

I'm a glutton for punishment! So this will probably be the last contest of this scale... future contests will be a lot more... economical.

I suppose we could settle this with sabres at dawn - the survivor get the the LEGO set! By the way... you're still eligible for the 215€ Prize. Yes, that is correct. Also, if you have a high resolution version of your sigfig/sigfrog, that would be very useful for the winner announcement.

YellowFrog made a similar post 20 hours ago: So I replied: I guess I could be evil and tell YellowFrog the confirmation for 25€ set came too slow and it was awarded to someone else. But despite aiming for 100, technically YellowFrog reached 25 first.

YellowFrog reached 100 but was beaten by Horation... and by that time Math Wizard had already claimed the 50 Prize, so YellowFrog decided to claim the second 25 Prize. Just over an hour ago from the time of writing. Maybe for a future contest but I need to focus on wrapping the current contest... and that's going to take many hours of my time as it is!

That's because most of the Builders aren't really engaged in that initiative. In that case: Please send me a Private Message which includes: Your full name Shipping address Phone number The 25€ LEGO set you wish to claim as a prize

Unfortunately gents you're a few hours too late! @Horation has reached 100 and @Math Wizard has reached 50 so we're still in the process of finalising. But we can do an official count if either of you wish to claim the 25€ sets...
