Re: General Contest Discussion

I would absolutely love another "Quest For" contest like Onion mentioned. Also, BRAWLs are awesome.

Re: General Contest Discussion

I am not exactly new here but I haven't really been present for any contests besides thac 8 and ToY, sooo...
What exactly is BRAWL, and Quest For? And what sort of themes do these, along with the month-long contest, have?

Re: General Contest Discussion

Brawl Means Brickfilm Rapidly All Week Long
The last one produced some nice films, like Not Forgotten, and the slightly controversial puppy-killing Mr. Depressing.
I have never heard of quest for, I joined in 2009.

Re: General Contest Discussion

I don't know much about Quest For... but I do know that it produced films like The Quest for the Torc Alliah and sillypenta's Teh Quest for Pants!.

Back after taking a VERY FREAKING long break. 14 months, I believe. Anyways I'm going to be making films again. Much better ones.

Re: General Contest Discussion

Renamed the thread as "General Contest Discussion".

At the moment I think we could talk about Septemberfest.

Re: General Contest Discussion

After some talks with Smeagol it looks like the staff would preferably not have a Septemberfest this year. Although I am currently hosting an un-offical contest myself, but I'm giving nothing away (yet).

All I will say is that... the acclaimed online company, BrickForge, have agreed to sponsor!!

Custom parts as prizes AGAIN?! I hope there are some other prizes besides that.

Not literally dead, just no longer interested in Lego or animation.

Re: General Contest Discussion

1. I'd like to see you find a sponsor
2. If you don't like it don't enter
3. Be grateful I have prizes
4. BrickForge are arguably the most popular non-official LEGO store out there, and it's for a good reason, y'know.

BrickForge is pretty awesome, minifig. Have you even seen the parts they have?

Okay, okay. It's just that I don't like custom parts, that's all.

Re: General Contest Discussion

BrickForge are particularly acclaimed due to their close similarities to LEGO, and their build quality.

Well, it's just that no matter how close it is, I think it doesn't fit in with offical Lego. Any custom part is in a shape Lego doesn't make, so it seem out of place to me.

This is just my opinion. I understand that not everyone feels the same way.

Can we stop talking about this before it turns into an argument?

Re: General Contest Discussion

Bump. Are we going to have an E.A.S.T.E.R. contest again? It was a lot of fun last year, and it would be awesome if someone hosted one this year...

Re: General Contest Discussion

Oohw! That'd be nice! Last year I didn't get to participate.
Maybe even an April Fools mini-contest. mini/eh

Re: General Contest Discussion

I'll be hosting Re-Run again this year in July. I'm going to look into some sponsors and see if I can get them to help.

I'm working on getting my studio back up and running, so stay posted...

Re: General Contest Discussion

I'm thinking about running a contest soon.
I got a bunch of stuff planned. Rules and everything.
Prizes are real prizes, not subs on YouTube.

Just... Well... I need to actually get the prizes. mini/tongue
Planning is easier than doing.
