  a small insignificant survey
 
Just out of intrest, how long do most people keep their creations alive for? In other words, how long do you wait to throw your mech off the third floor?(just kidding) I know Bryce and Eric keep all of their mechs alive, but I'm wondering about the (...)

(...) My mechs stay alive forever or until they fall and can't be reassebled because of my lack of memory. But other than that they are still intact. (23 years ago, 6-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: a small insignificant survey
 
(...) Depends. If I really, really like it, and have perfected it, it has/will stay around. If not, Bye-Bye it goes! (...) The number of parts is always an issue. If any of my creations take a lot of rare pieces, I'll enter it into CAD and then (...) (23 years ago, 6-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: a small insignificant survey
 
(...) Great question, Geordan! I keep them alive for quite awhile. At least a year. Warthog was re-built after being sold, as was Xerxes. Overkill had a big fall and was altered to become Overkill Mk.II. After it's even worse fall, I'm not (...) (23 years ago, 6-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

I think my longest-lived creation was my Enforcer mecha, which was (...) (23 years ago, 6-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: a small insignificant survey
 
Hmm... my first mechs I've had for about a year, but if your talking about any MoC, probally the oldest thing I still have together is a cheap amphibious tank I built in 4th grade. It's been changed ofter because the design was bad, but the original (...) (23 years ago, 7-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: a small insignificant survey
 
For the most part, I keep 'em running until I or the cats accidentally destroy them. I did voluntarily dismantle the Kiseru a few weeks ago 'cause I needed pieces, but this is not normal for me. --Colin (...) (23 years ago, 7-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: a small insignificant survey
 
Well, I don't build with mech at all, but I thought I'd toss my two cents in about my town/space/castle structures. Thinking back upon my oldest MOC...I'd say it strectched back ten years or so. Over the past five years or so, I've increased the (...) (23 years ago, 9-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
