That is a great tent design, I love the upside down cheese slope pattern. Will you be removing the base plate and sitting the tent on the sand then?

For the personal ship category, I am at 126 studs in length, might need to go slightly further.

The ship looks great with all the lights, but I too cannot see it looking like a SW ship. However those lighted up bricks are awsome.

Good idea but still bear in mind that it isn't as simple as that. Depending on how large you make it, they will be dotted around and you will certainly need to make sure the whole model is fully supported by the rocks underneath. To start with I would begin making some basic drawings of the floor plans to give you a starting point. Also if you don't already have it, Harry Potter OOTP and HBP game are really useful as they allow you to walk around Hogwarts at free will giving you an idea where everything is and looks like.

Hey there RubeusHagrid Well, I am a good fan of the Harry Potter series, but mainly Hogwarts fascinates me. I have my own drawn very basic layout of the castle and its architecture amazes me. I do love seeing the castle recreated in Lego but if you do want to take this seriously then there is only one way to do it. UCS scale. If you try to make a large castle with just the sets they provide it will end up uneven and TBH not the most interesting creation it could be. Below are some examples and links of what you could base it on. The above are Hogwarts creations belonging to Allen Hall who created them for his daughter a long time ago. He recently decided him and his daughter would re-create the castle for one last time and that is the last two pictures from above. If you look at those two pictures I think you can take much inspiration from them. If your's was like this, it would be UCS scale and still be great to kit out the rooms and have fun with it. The newer version so far is also very accurate so another. Here is the link to all his creations: Clicky Sorry but I am not sure who made this one, however it does have certain things that work well. For instance the main grand tower is the right type of size and shape, also the round towers are amazing, they use certain techniques which look good but only work if you are only doing it at a really bigger than UCS size. An example from our very own Sandy. This one has your 2nd option in it and has full accessibility to all the rooms inside. I like the fact that Sandy managed to include all the major rooms in it and it also folds out for accessibility. Here is the link. Also Here And Here Overall, I think that if you are going to take the build really seriously then you need to do it UCS scale like Allen Hall, but if your heart calls for playability then go for that. Also unless you want to pay for shit loads of parts you will have to take apart your current HP collection, the sets provide excellent parts and accessories and it will save you money when it comes to it. Good Luck for your future project. Eskallon

I too am sad that this amazing film series will be coming to an end, yet I am looking forward to seeing the film version of how it turns out. The newest trailer looks great, especially the Battle Of Hogwarts scenes:

The wise Sandy has spoken So Quarry, any clues as to what we can expect?

Sign up for both while you still can.

Will it be that participating in a level 2 game is compulsory or is just a second chance just for those who think they need more practice?

I too am loving that smiley. On another note, it was St Georges day? God I need to be more patriotic.

Yeah, I can agree with everything you said here, every bloody time I get in touch with the right people but it has normally been bad luck that I end up dead, like with this that they found out I had a night action. Oh well, next game maybe. I would love to see a The Forest Mafia 2, I think that it would be interesting and if you corrected the mistakes made in this one, it could turn out to be a really awsome game.

I do hope that Quarry is ready. I can't wait to even find out about what it will be based on. On another note, will another game of Mafia School be running soon or even parallel to the next game.

That looks great everyone, a big congratulations to us all and a big thankyou to Brickdoctor for running this community project. I will update to the extended mode soon but for now I must say that it looks pretty good in the screenshot, a little odd shape, but still good.

So guys, that is why you should always send a PM to your allies telling the night action result before you check the thread. It means if you die then you may have still helped your friends, plus it isn't cheating since you don't know you are dead. So Hinck, can we expect a Forest Mafia 2 anytime soon?

It is hard to trust people in an all star game, everyone knows how to tell a lie, so we all get paranoid thinking that someone is double crossing us. Next game, I am going to put my trust in someone, and hope for hell they are innocent.

That is a shit-load of night actions Hinck, I almost cannot imagine how much pain you must have gone through sorting them through, early on in the game. Well I finally found out I was not also a jailkeeper or any variation Oh and just wanted to say, Thanks Sandy for telling the Demon Legion I had a night action. Or Eurogina as shadows calls it, It was all about a woman called Gina in a European Mafia.

Well done Town for doing well in this game, a special well done to Edgar, Helen and in the last day especially Rufus who all played excellently. To the scum, bad luck, if only you still had Zepher. I can't wait to hear more about what went on with Stash, Here is my character bio: (Not as funny as the other's though) I was happy with my role which was indeed useful and it was a shame that later on in the game I was told that it would only work on magic attacks. Oh well. Anyway up until the night that I died I was fairly certain that this was also a hidden Jaildetractkeeper role and that it also blocked my targets which would make sense considering that once someone is far off in a parallel universe they cannot protect someone here, however with the help of Edgar I managed to find out the truth. I don't have much to comment on the game day wise, it fell into sort of a pattern with everyone: Say Hello, talk about what we are going to do, decide against that, wait for someone to bring some evidence to the table, vote. Also I saw loads of boring long-winded posts which could have made a stronger point in just two lines, why say so much crap which will just detract people from your main point? There seems to have been a lot pf people who used PM's as their main form of communication, me included, and I was trying to learn more and form alliances but it ended up me giving away information and not receiving much. So by the time I died I was getting suspicious of my two main allies Edgar and Helen, but what could I have done. Edgar was starting to give me some information but I just didn't feel like I was a part of the conversations going on. I enjoyed the riddles throughout the game and these are something that really appealed to me, but I do believe they should have been more focused towards the game and if a host includes riddles then he/she should do it properly and make them a significant part of the game which I just don't think they were seen as important enough. Nevertheless they were fun so I shouldn't be complaining. Now despite those two paragraphs full of the bad things I did enjoy this game, it was fun which is something which should be a part of every game, but I mean it was really fun to not just play, but sit and watch it progress. It was well thought out and some of the roles were more interesting than in other games. Hinckley did a great job with all the pictures and when there was not much to show us, he threw in some story lines which were funny and ingenious. Overall I can say this was a great game which I really enjoyed, so I would like to thank our amazing Host and all the other players who made this a good game.

Not being someone who was ever too fond of the vehicle, I like your representation of it. The small details you put into your models astonishes me. Do you keep all your mini's intact or are they dismantled? If they are intact it would be nice to see them either layed out or simply as a general pic to show us the sheer amount of them made.

Nice to see another contest KimT, I have decided I am going to put in some time to make sure I get this done to a good standard and on time. Are the type of transport limited to these suggestions or are we allowed to use aircraft and other forms of transportation? Eskallon

I like it, It has something, suspense, you just want to know what will happen to the person next. Good job. Next time I would like to hear some sound effects or some voices. Yours Eskallon

I hate you. , you had me there, I guess I am too gullable. At least when they steal the design you can.... Infact I can't think of a positive.

Wow :wub: Finally an executer, I was kinda hoping for a UCS Venator but this is still great. The details which will be packed into this thing are sure to be amazing. Anybody have any idea of the release date?

I too think that this is a little strange but we simply cannot blame anyone. The villagers want to help but don't want to bust themselves by opening there mouths and the scum are doing the same. Most people by this stage are in communication with each other privately and nobody can really come out with any information without dying the next night. Mafia Games are starting to turn into PM's, they are centered around PMing and to be honest sometimes nobody has anything to share which makes it hard. Host's are also paying more attention to the behind the scenes work and so while the pictures are perfect and there are some really cool night actions, people just don't know what to do next and it takes a very special person to be able to figure out the scum. This is made especially hard if the investigator dies. These items seem to take the form of roles in this game, whereas in Hogwarts the item's were not your role and just part of it. However something like an item based game will only work in Mafia in certain themed games which is why it is harder to implement. In my opinion a game with items is more successful because it is different and a part of the roles rather than the basic single roles.

Yeah but that is the closest I have come to winning (closer than getting to the conclusions in other games) and I have really wanted to play as scum in one of my games but yet I haven't had the experience of doing so. I think I would make a great scum player. Still, your right, I should put it behind me.

Me too. Hope you get well soon. Still really pissed off about that guys. We should have won and every time I remind myself of it, as I play a mafia game, I think of how pissed I am.
