Congratulations on the record and surviving the /. effect!

Thank you, I'm still trying to figure out if I survived. :-)

Thanks to everyone that uploaded all the great pictures of the event.

Yes, I'd like to thank David Schilling for all the pics, like the ones linked
below.

Who made the downtown buildings?  They appear to be sub-minifig scale, but
they are very, very nice.

My favorite buildings have been the white grain silos and especially the
palace with its great details and lots of cool ideas of unconventional use of
bricks.

Who has built it?

BTW: What has actually been the length of the big Snap bridge? I have been in
fear it might have been longer than my big bridge of 4.10 meters (32 sections
of straight track)....

The silos belong to Matt Chiles.

Ah yes, the Palace belongs to Dan Parker.  I know I've got more photos of that
from the show and also earlier when he brought it over to my house.

Oh yes Ben, I remember your bridge.  This snap bridge was built by Wayne
Hussey, and the total length is 22 feet and the length of the span is 16 feet 3
inches.

For the awhile my bridge of 5 feet was the longest in the club but then sitting
next to his, well...
