BrickFest 2005 event planning and space allocation is in process.

It would really help the planning process to get some idea of what competitions
you might be planning on entering, and what Technic, Mindstorms or Great Ball
Contraption MOCs you be planning on bringing. This is not a commitment on your
part to take part in any competitions or bring MOCs for display, but is just
intended as an indication of how many people are likely to show up with stuff.
So if you are bringing something, please email me directly or post to this
thread. You don't need to reveal what you are  bringing, just that you are
bringing something and what category, competition entry, MOC or GBC module it
belongs in.

There will be adequate space available, but it is very helpful if its use can be
planned in advance.

.... and there will be Mindstorms competition prizes again this year. I will be
bringing supplies of ultrasonic sensors, red EOPDs and IRPDs.

Each first place winner will receive their choice of three sensors.
Each second place winner will receive one sensor of their choice.
If the event is a draw, the two competitors will receive two sensors each.

The plum event will therefor be Tag-Team Sumo, where there may be two first
first place robots. If they are both your's, then you'll get two first place
prizes. And, of course if you field four robots and they come first and second,
you'll get to walk away with the second place prizes too!

So get building!
