  Re: ISD Build competition
 
(...) Ok, They have decided to go ahead and go for it even with only 3 teams. That means we need 7-8 more builders! Come on Star Wars AFOLs! Let's rock this party!!! Anyone already in Indianapolis Area, I'll be receiving the practice set soon, so (...) (20 years ago, 22-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.loc.us.in, lugnet.starwars)

(...) A total shame, but I understand. One must visit the Holy Land ;-) We'll miss you.. any of the other Laffayette crew wanna come play? (20 years ago, 22-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.loc.us.in, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: ISD Build competition
 
(...) Joe, I'll join the team! The thing is that I can only be there on Saturday the 23rd. Do we have to be preregistered? I was planning on just paying at the door. I'll try to see what days I can get off of work to come to a practice. David (...) (20 years ago, 23-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.loc.us.in, lugnet.starwars)

(...) .. (...) I spoke with the organizer, and, thanks to advertising on Starwars.com, the entry/waiting list is up to 56 teams! Steve (20 years ago, 23-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.loc.us.in, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: ISD Build competition
 
(...) Um, wow. That's quite the difference. Should be interesting to see how far behind the LUGNET team the other teams are. That's a ton of ISDs and a lot of table space to boot.

  Re: ISD Build competition
 
(...) No, no.. the Waiting list is that long.. they are only allowing 8 teams... of which My primarily AFOL team is one..so Jump on the wagon folks...I've still got 2-3 open spots on the team. (20 years ago, 23-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.loc.us.in, lugnet.starwars, FTX)
 
  Re: ISD Build competition
 
(...) Yeah, I'm kind of wondering how well that will work. 10 AFOLs can build an ISD in about 1-2 hours, no problem. A non-Lego team? Who knows? The first AFOL build took 13 people 1 hour, 43 minutes, IIRC. Will a non-Lego team be done before the (...)

(...) That would be awe inspiring.. (...) Not sure on this one.. (...) Here's how they're running it: 8 teams 10 people each. 2 Teams at a time competing 2 6' Banquet tables per team 4 sessions Friday (The Indy AFOL Knights will begin at 7PM) Time (...)

  Re: ISD Build competition
 
(...) Simple--you disassemble the assembled ISDs and use the materials to build as many SSDs as possible. How many ISDs did we determine you'd need to build one to-scale SSD? You should be able to squeeze a few out of 110 ISDs, right? Dave! (20 years ago, 23-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.loc.us.in, lugnet.starwars, FTX)
 
  Re: ISD Build competition
 
(...) I dunno, it'd be cutting it close I think! The SSD is what? Like 10x the size of an ISD? Which, from an area perspective would require 100 ISD's to have the same surface area. And the remaining 10 to try and give it some semblance of (...) (20 years ago, 23-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.loc.us.in, lugnet.starwars, FTX)
 
  Re: ISD Build competition
 
(...) Jeez! I hadn't done the math and didn't realize that the SSD was quite so huge.
