inches tall.
5) Best Large Scale Structure

TRAIN and TOWN MOCS entries must be mutually exclusive (i.e. a Train station
would be a train-specific MOC, and not judged as a specific “town” entry. The
decision of which category to place a MOC that could fall in either category
would fall to the entrant (i.e. a warehouse with a bay for a train hopper could
classify as “train specific” or “town”-the category would be up to the
entrant).
Any questions? Drop me a line!
Later,

Hi Joe,
Just a couple of silly questions. But I’m a Brickfest-newbie, so please be
gentle. :)
I read through your posting but for the Town contest specifically, I didn’t see
two pieces of information.
1) Is this minifig-scale Town? Or just anything with an overall Town theme?
2) How do you actually enter a model in the contests? Is there something to
fill out when you arrive? Or is it somehow tied to the MOC cards?
Thanks!
Allan
