(...) Are we? I didn't know that, but I did get your email the other day and checked the year old 2.2 source code out of CVS. I fiddled with it a bit and found simple workarounds for most of the problems with the minifig chains in that version. (...) (18 years ago, 15-Mar-07, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

  Re: Brickworld Announcement - Area Attractions and baseball
 
(...) Although a robot pitcher and robot hitter would be very very kewl, just a robot pitcher and wireless remote control hitter would be very kewl. Like those old baseball machines at the beach.

  Re: BrickWorld 2007 - who's getting paid?
 
(...) You missunderstand me, I think. I wouldn't be skipping out because I'm not making a buck. I'm not interested in going to an event to make money, I do it because I love building with LEGO. I would skip out on an event if others were making a (...) (18 years ago, 15-Mar-07, to lugnet.events.brickworld)

  Re: BrickWorld 2007 - who's getting paid?
 
(...) While I agree in a capitalist sense, I don't agree in a realistic sense. Perhaps it might help if we weren't talking about BrickFest/BrickWorld per se. Or, perhaps if we were talking about them 10 years in the future. I dunno. Anyway, here's (...) (18 years ago, 15-Mar-07, to lugnet.events.brickworld, FTX)

  Re: BrickWorld 2007 - who's getting paid?
 
(...) I don't think "bringing a MOC" is a valid argument for being a volunteer unless you have a following of people who and pay to get into events purely to see YOUR art.

(...) Unfortunately the ultrasonic sensor can't even detect the red and blue balls when stationary. (Unless you're REAL close: within an inch or two.)

  Re: BrickWorld 2007 - who's getting paid?

  Re: BrickFest PDX 2007 - who's getting paid?
