   Build a Better Mouse Trap

The contest is to build a better mouse trap from standard Lego elements. Better means more reliable than spring traps and more humane than glue traps. Live trapping is preferred- I don’t hate these mice, I just want them gone from my house.

Prizes will be substantial, and will be announced soon. Please indicate here or by email if you plan to enter, so I can get an idea what the prizes actually should be. How about an RCX as a prize?

also, about the prize, an RCX would be nice, but I already have 2. Maybe Bricklink credit?

I’ll let you know soon, but count me in for now.
