Well, this is just a fun contest to pass the time, I dont think the forum or anyone else wants to kick in cannon battles. Besides, a certain Doctor passed through my area and now Cannon Battles are no longer to be found... -Super

How tall is this in bricks? I'm guessing ten or so? I remember the great debate that errupted when I asked how long the rope bridge was... -Super

..... awesomeness. The prize will be a fantasticly made "medal" by me (or someone with talent) in paint or something like that! -Super

So lets do some contests with your MOC group, ok? I did join yesterday.

Your attention to detail is simply amazing and awe inspiring. Your buildings would be a welcome addition to my harbor!!! Right now I am in the large building phase but look forward to making smaller and more detailed projects such as this. You should be very very very proud of your MOCs, and I am very jealous of your skill and detail. You are very welcome to our corner of the forum!!!

I would like to see an Imperial Ship, even if its not blue, that has comparable size to Brickbeard. As for me, I have been converting my Barracudas and Brickbeards to Imperial service relatively easily anyways.

A dude in a barrle is the standard special ops infiltration team of the blue coats. Trust me, your services will be used. However, word may have spread through the redcoats to look for a barrel and a tricorne. Be careful on these next few missions.

Ok, so lets do this. It sounds like everyone is really excited by it, and as a wise man once said, "we don't have girls on their period" on our side.

I'll bring the black coats and a whole barrel of slughter, gore, butchery, and decapitation. Fun party.

I think that the saber in the Indiana Jones set proved that pirate was coming back. I think the updated blue coats in the LEGO battles trailer is also proving that updated blue coats will be back as well.

Yes mother...

Yeah, I need to get to MOC pages. Truth be told, the only reason I don't want to is because I can't keep track of all these sites and groups anymore. I was hoping that classic-pirate would make things more central. I'm going to go sign up right now, and I'll join your group! -Super

Hornbricker... seriously.... that is genius! Why couldnt we just pick a couple of us and do it as our own project? I'm game for sure. -Super

I think that the hull is too high. I see your building skill is quite good, but I would like to see the mast to hull ratio a little more in proportion. Remember, such a high ship means there is even more under the water, this makes me believe that the ship is slow, and therefore, not fit for battle. Bring down the hull somewhat and make her "lines more lovely". I do have to admit that growing up on the Great Lakes in the States, our Brigs of the War of 1812 were very close to the water. This might be part of the reason why I do not like hulls that are too high. One thing I forgot to ad is that I do love the look of your sails, both their color and size!

Ok, that was one of my very favorite discussions of ALL TIME. I'm kinda sad now...

Its funny that their seed part right now is a barrel. I own more of those than anyone on the planet I think. -Super

Nope, just kill highly educated snooty folk who can't load a gun. Too bad things got out of hand. Knowing my track record, I feel I will be getting in trouble sooner or later. But at least I know every single MOC of mine from here on out will be a red vs blue battle. Its my act of defiance! Its good to be back. I was having LEGO withdrawls. But the one nice thing was that when I got home there were three bricklink orders waiting for me! That was very nice! -Super

Buggar! LOL!

For "pirates" we sure do have a lot of rules, don't we?! I would have to say our conversation now is considerably off-topic because it is part of thread from last years building contest. But in all honesty, I don't want anyone to stop thinking I'm the back sheep here. So I will continue to find the gray areas. -Super

So before I left there was talk of a building contest "just for fun", or not for prizes, etc... I've been gone for a couple weeks and I can see that the idea did not pan out? So, whats going to happen here? I joined right as Captain's Cabin was underway, so I have YET to be able to be part of one contest. I'm kinda going crazy over here... -Super P.S. I hate red coats, hope they all die, and gladly put this outside of the official place to say such things. Thats called fighting the system, and what REAL pirates do.

Well that is a bunch of crap. What if you make a red vs blue MOC?

Dude, I know it was last years contest. Thats why it was SOOOO Halarious to me that this guy was so excited and didn't look at the dates. I mean, the last posts were in October or something. So I played into it. What do you mean we can't do the redcoat/bluecoat thing anymore?! What happened? Did someone lose the war?!?! I was in Europe for two weeks. I know everyone missed my candor. But what exactly happened to where the rivalry died?! I'm kinda scared to hear this because I really hate you red coats.

Thats funny, because I decided to use the old soldiers as marines on my ships, and the new soldiers as my "bad guy" army Im building. I figured I only have a certain amount of old soliders, but new ones I get weekly.

A very very impressive piece! What sold me the most was the aforementioned tiled floor. I am truly amazed and impressed by this tile floor job. It looks so relaistic to me! A very nice piece indeed!!!

If this is a large building contest. IM READY TO GO! LETS DO IT! P.S. Don't play with my emotions, I've been waiting for a large building contest as long as Moses. P.S.S. GO BLUE COATS! P.S.S.S. If any of you do come to the USA, I would be more than happy to host you! Or give you a ride from Chicago Airport! -Super I frame my boxes and display them on the wall of my LEGO room.
